Chicago Bathroom Remodeling

Bathroom remodeling and renovation from North Shore Handyman, from one small bath to a full rebuild

Call (312) 313-9394

There's a special kind of Chicago morning where it's 9 degrees out, everybody needs the one bathroom at the same time, and the shower picks that moment to run cold.

I'm Chris. For more than 11 years, my team has been handling bathroom remodeling Chicago families have been waiting on, and a lot of those bathrooms were older than the people using them. There are 27 of us, so tile, plumbing and cleanup aren't three separate phone calls for you to make.

Bathroom Renovation Services We Handle in Chicago

Here are the bathroom jobs we get called about most.

Small Bathroom Remodel

A small bathroom remodel is the most common job in this city, because that's what most of our older homes were built with. Every inch counts, so we think about door swings, storage and what you can reach before we think about tile.

Master Bathroom Remodel

A master bathroom remodel is the one you've been promising yourself. Bigger shower, double vanity, better light. We'll help you decide what's worth paying for and what you'd stop noticing after two weeks.

Walk In Shower

A walk in shower opens up a tight room and makes life easier as you get older. We build them with the waterproofing done right, because that's the part nobody sees until it fails.

Tub to Shower Conversion

Nobody's taken a bath in that tub since the Obama administration? A tub to shower conversion gives you the space back. We'll look at the plumbing and the floor first, so there aren't surprises when the old tub comes out.

Budget Bathroom Remodel

A budget bathroom remodel works best when you tell us the number up front. New vanity, toilet, fixtures and paint can go a long way when the tile and plumbing are still good.

Condo Bathroom Remodel

A condo bathroom remodel means thinking about the neighbors below you and the rules of your building. Tell us what your association requires, and we'll plan the work around it.

What a Bathroom Remodel Costs in Chicago

Your bathroom remodel cost comes down to a few things:

  • Whether the plumbing moves. Keeping things where they are saves money.
  • How much tile you want. Tile work is labor, and labor is usually the big number.
  • What's under the old floor. Water damage is common in older bathrooms, and it has to be fixed, not covered.
  • The fixtures. The same room can come in at very different prices depending on what you pick.

We'd rather come see it and give you a free estimate than guess on the phone. You'll get the real number before we start, not a low one that grows halfway through.

When a Bathroom Renovation Is the Wrong Fix

Sometimes you don't need a full bathroom renovation. Chicago homeowners call us expecting a gut job more often than they need one. If your tile is sound and only the grout looks bad, or the vanity is the real eyesore, we'll say so. But if you've got soft spots in the floor or stains on the ceiling below, the problem is water. New tile over a leak just gives you a prettier leak, and we won't do that to you.

Why Hire Our Bathroom Remodeling Contractors

Plenty of bathroom contractors can set tile. The questions that matter are whether it's going to line up, whether it's going to leak, and whether anybody's going to show up on Thursday.

Here's what you get from our bathroom remodeling contractors:

  • Tile that lines up, because we care how it looks
  • Our own crew, from tear-out to final cleanup
  • A timeline before we start, so you can plan around the one bathroom you've got
  • No pressure and no dictionary required

We also won't leave dust and debris all over your home when we leave for the day. You still have to live there, and you've got enough going on.

Chicago Bathroom Remodel Questions

What if it's my only bathroom?

We'll talk about that before we start. We know a lot of Chicago homes have just the one, so we'll plan the job so you know exactly when it's out of service.

How long does a bathroom remodel take?

It depends on the size and how much is changing. You'll get a timeline before any work starts, and we'll call you if it moves.

Can you match an older bathroom's style?

Tell us what you love about it. Vintage Chicago bathrooms can be charming, and we don't need to tear out everything just because we can.

Should I call a plumber first, or bathroom remodelers Chicago homeowners recommend?

If it's an active leak, call a plumber today. If the leak's fixed and the room is what's left, call us at (312) 313-9394.
