Real Transformations: Before & After
See the difference it makes in real Seattle homes.
Showcase Project 1: The Modern Master Suite
The Challenge: Stuck in the 90s
This Seattle master bath was a time capsule of outdated trends. It featured a bulky, unused soaking tub that wasted valuable square footage, a standard builder-grade oak vanity with zero organization, and poor lighting that made the room feel small and yellow.
The homeowners needed a modern bathroom renovation that maximized space and style.
The Elite Solution: A Luxury Spa Retreat
We gutted the space down to the studs to update the plumbing and electrical systems for modern safety. The new design features a custom vanity for efficient morning routines and a rainfall shower system with a handheld wand.
We added a touch of everyday luxury with radiant heated flooring, perfect for Seattle winters, and timeless brushed gold fixtures that will never go out of style.
Showcase Project 2: Small Bathroom Overhaul
The Challenge: Cramped & Cluttered
Like many vintage homes in Seattle, this bathroom suffered from a frustratingly tight layout. A pedestal sink left no room for toiletries, and the toilet was awkwardly positioned. The lack of proper ventilation had also caused minor moisture issues over the years. The owners needed a small bathroom remodel that prioritized storage without moving walls.
The Elite Solution: Smart Storage & Flow
We focused on functionality. We installed a custom fitted vanity with deep drawers to hide clutter and added a mirrored medicine cabinet for extra vertical storage. We updated the plumbing to install high-efficiency fixtures and added a whisper-quiet ventilation fan to protect the home. Finished with heated tile floors, this small footprint now delivers big comfort.

Customer Reviews
FAQs
How long does a typical bathroom remodel take?
Most Seattle bathroom remodels are completed in about 2 to 4 weeks, depending on the project’s complexity and material availability. Smaller cosmetic updates may be done even sooner, while larger remodels that involve structural changes or extensive plumbing could take longer. We’ll provide a clear timeline during the planning phase so you know what to expect.
What is the average cost of a bathroom remodel in Seattle?
A bathroom remodel in Seattle typically costs anywhere from $10,000 to $30,000 or more, depending on the design, materials, and scope of work. Every project is unique – high-end materials like custom cabinetry, stone tiles, or luxury fixtures will increase the cost, while more modest updates stay on the lower end of the range. We’re happy to provide a detailed, custom quote based on your specific needs and budget so you can plan accordingly.
Do I need permits for a bathroom remodel in Seattle?
Yes, permits are usually required for any significant bathroom remodel in Seattle, especially if you are moving plumbing lines, adding new electrical work, or making structural changes. Don’t worry – our team will handle all the necessary permits and inspections for you. We ensure that your remodel is fully compliant with Seattle building codes and regulations, so the process is safe and hassle-free.
Can I stay in my home during the remodel?
In most cases, yes – you can stay in your home during a bathroom remodel. Our team works to minimize disruption and will confine the work area to your bathroom. Keep in mind that the bathroom under construction will be out of service for the duration of the project, so you’ll need an alternative to use (such as a second bathroom in the house). If you only have one bathroom, we can discuss scheduling options or temporary solutions to make sure you’re comfortable while we work.
