Bathroom Remodeling

The cost of a bathroom remodel can vary greatly depending on many factors such as size of the bathroom, age of the bathroom, where the plumbing is located, electrical, materials, labor, and scope of the project. On average, a bathroom remodel can range from $15,000 to $50,000 or more. To get an accurate estimate, request your bathroom remodeling consultation and provide us with detailed information about your potential project.

The duration of a bathroom remodel depends on the scope of the project, material availability, and our current schedule. A small-scale remodel may take 2-3 weeks, while a complete overhaul can take 6-8 weeks or longer. We will be able to provide you a timeline specific to your project.

Depending on the scope of the work and local building codes, you may need permits for your bathroom remodel. At All Exclusive Construction we are very familiar with local regulations in Santa Clarita and surrounding areas and will advise you on whether permits are necessary and we can also help obtain them if needed.

You can choose to keep your existing bathroom layout if it meets your needs and you are happy with it. However, if you want to maximize space or update the design, a new layout may be necessary. All Exclusive Construction can help you determine the best layout for your needs and preferences.

When selecting fixtures and hardware, consider the style, finish, functionality, and durability of the items. All Exclusive Construction can help you choose fixtures and hardware that match your design preferences and fit within your budget.

To maximize storage, consider incorporating built-in cabinets, open shelving, and creative storage solutions such as wall-mounted cabinets or recessed niches. At All Exclusive Construction we can help you design a layout that maximizes storage while maintaining a visually appealing and functional space.

Proper ventilation is crucial in a bathroom to prevent mold and mildew growth and that musty, old bathroom, smell. At All Exclusive Construction we can help you determine the best ventilation options, such as installing a new exhaust fan or upgrading your current one to meet current standards.

Bathroom lighting plays a pivotal role not just in aesthetics but also in functionality. Given the diverse activities that take place in a bathroom, from applying makeup to reading a book in the tub, versatile lighting is essential. Proper illumination can elevate the ambiance, enhance tasks, and accentuate design elements.

When considering a bathroom remodel, start with layered lighting. This approach involves combining ambient, task, and accent lighting. Ambient lighting, typically provided by ceiling fixtures or recessed lights, serves as the primary light source replacing natural light. For those bathrooms with ample windows, daytime lighting should be maximized, but having a good ambient light source remains necessary for evenings and cloudy days. Task lighting, on the other hand, is essential around mirrors and vanity areas. Consider installing vertical fixtures or sconces on either side of the mirror to eliminate shadows and ensure even lighting on the face. This makes grooming tasks like shaving or makeup application more effective. For more luxurious bathrooms, accent lighting can be used to highlight artwork or architectural details, creating depth and adding a touch of sophistication.

Additionally, it's essential to factor in the Color Rendering Index (CRI) and color temperature. Bathrooms benefit from a higher CRI, ensuring colors appear true to life, especially vital for makeup application. As for color temperature, a range between 2700K to 3000K usually offers a warm yet natural light, which is flattering for most skin tones.

Incorporating dimmer switches can also be beneficial. They allow flexibility in adjusting the light intensity, setting the mood for a relaxing bath in the evening or ensuring brightness during morning routines.

Lastly, always ensure that the chosen fixtures and bulbs are suitable for damp environments. Bathrooms can get humid, and safety should always be a priority. With thoughtful consideration and planning, your bathroom's lighting can be both functional and a design statement, encapsulating the essence of your remodeled sanctuary.

Tile showers offer a custom design, a wide range of styles and colors, and better durability compared to pre-fabricated shower enclosures. While tile showers can be more expensive and time-consuming to install, they generally provide a higher-end look and increased long-term value.

Ceramic, porcelain, and glass tiles are popular options for shower surrounds. Ceramic and porcelain tiles are durable, water-resistant, and easy to maintain, while glass tiles offer a unique, modern look. We can help you to determine the best tile option for your specific needs and preferences.

Proper waterproofing is essential for preventing water damage and mold growth in a tile shower. We install a waterproof membrane behind the tile and use a high-quality grout and sealant to minimize water infiltration. Additionally, we ensure that the shower pan and drain are correctly installed to prevent any leaks.

A heated tile floor is a flooring system that uses electric or hydronic radiant heating elements installed beneath the tile to provide warmth. Heated tile floors offer increased comfort, especially during colder months, and can help reduce overall heating costs by providing targeted warmth in the bathroom.

The cost of installing a heated tile floor depends on factors such as the size of the area, the type of heating system (electric or hydronic), and labor costs. On average, heated tile floor installation can range from $10 to $25 per square foot, not including the cost of the tile itself.
