Full Bathroom Renovation in Kitchener-Waterloo

Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario

This dated bathroom had a curtain shower, a pedestal sink and worn floor tile. We took the room down to the studs and subfloor and rebuilt it as a modern spa-style bathroom with a glass walk-in shower, a wall-hung toilet and a floating vanity.

Drag the slider to compare the room before and after, then scroll through the build to see what goes on behind the tile.

  • Gutted to the studs and subfloor
  • Wall-hung toilet on an in-wall carrier
  • Glass walk-in shower with built-in niches
  • Cement board and sloped mortar shower base
  • Liquid waterproofing membrane on all wet walls
  • Large-format porcelain tile on walls and floor
  • Floating vanity, LED mirror and pot lights

Main Floor & Kitchen Renovation in Mississauga

Mississauga, Ontario

The homeowner loved her neighbourhood but not her kitchen. It was dark, closed-in and cut off from the dining room by a load-bearing wall, with dated cabinets, worn tile and too little storage. She wanted a bright, open space where the family could cook, eat and spend time together.

We designed the new kitchen with her in 3D, chose every finish together, then took out the wall and rebuilt the main floor around it. Drag the slider to see the difference, then follow the story step by step.

  • 3D design and finish selection before work began
  • Load-bearing wall replaced with a new beam
  • Navy island, white shaker cabinets and quartz
  • Floor-to-ceiling pantry storage
  • Waterproof vinyl plank floors and refaced stairs
  • Fresh paint and pot lights throughout

Featured project

Custom Media Wall in Kitchener-Waterloo

Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario

The homeowners wanted a living-room feature wall that hides every cable and gives the TV a proper home. We designed and built a full-width media wall with a recessed TV niche, a low media shelf, display towers on both sides and LED lighting in every niche.

Drag the slider to compare the framed structure with the finished wall, then follow the build step by step.

  • Custom 2x4 framing anchored to the wall
  • Recessed TV niche with solid mounting backing
  • Hidden power and low-voltage wiring
  • Display towers with lit niches
  • Drywall, corner bead and three-coat finish
  • Primed and painted in a two-tone finish
