Milwaukee’s straight-talking bathroom remodeler. Free quotes with line-item pricing, written guarantees, and a 5-year warranty in writing.
A full bathroom remodel means we take it down to the studs and rebuild it — new plumbing rough-in, new electrical, new tile, new vanity, new fixtures, new everything. Most Milwaukee homeowners come to us because their bathroom is 25-40 years old, the tile is cracking, the vanity is rotting from the bottom, and they’re tired of contractors who quote $20k then add $8k in “surprises.” We do bathroom remodeling Milwaukee the way it should be done: one crew, one timeline, one price in writing.
We’ve remodeled bathrooms in Bay View bungalows, Whitefish Bay colonials, Wauwatosa ranches, and Brookfield new builds. Same standards every job.
What’s Included in a Full Bathroom Remodel
Every full bathroom renovation Milwaukee project we run includes:
- Demolition and disposal — tear-out down to the studs, dumpster on-site, debris hauled away daily
- Plumbing rough-in — new supply lines, drain lines, shut-offs, and fixture connections to code
- Electrical work — GFCI outlets, dedicated circuits for vanity lighting, exhaust fan wiring, dimmer switches
- Subfloor and waterproofing — replace rotted subfloor, install Schluter or RedGard waterproof membrane in wet areas
- Tile work — floor tile, shower walls, niches, accent strips, and backsplash (your selection)
- Vanity and countertop — install vanity, quartz or granite top, undermount or vessel sink
- Fixtures — toilet, shower system, faucets, tub (if applicable)
- Lighting and mirror — vanity lights, ceiling fixture, framed or LED mirror
- Finish carpentry — trim, baseboards, door, paint
- Daily cleanup and final walkthrough — we leave the worksite clean every day, not just the last day

Timeline — How Long It Takes
Honest timelines, not sales pitches:
- Standard hall bath or guest bath: 2.5 – 3 weeks from demo day to walkthrough
- Mid-range primary bath: 3 – 4 weeks
- Premium primary bath with custom tile and curbless shower: 4 – 6 weeks
- Full bath addition or layout change (moving plumbing): 5 – 7 weeks (permit time included)
Where delays come from: custom vanity lead times (4-8 weeks if not ordered early), tile backorders, and inspection scheduling with the City of Milwaukee. We order materials BEFORE demo day so the job runs straight through.

Common Questions About Full Bathroom Remodels
How much does a full bathroom remodel cost in Milwaukee?
Most full remodels in Milwaukee run $18,000-$30,000 for a mid-range project. Budget jobs start around $12k, premium custom work hits $40k-$60k+. Cost depends on size, layout changes, and finish level. We give line-item quotes so you see exactly where the money goes — no allowances, no surprises.
How long does a bathroom remodel take?

Do I need permits for a bathroom remodel in Milwaukee?
Yes — any work involving plumbing relocation, electrical changes, or structural modifications requires a City of Milwaukee permit. We pull every permit ourselves and coordinate inspections. Permit fees are listed on your written quote, never marked up.
Can you help with design and material selection?
Yes. We walk you through tile, vanity, fixtures, lighting, and layout — either at our supplier showrooms or wherever you prefer to shop. No design fee for standard projects. For complex layout changes, we provide 3D renderings so you see the bathroom before we build it.
Do you offer financing?
We work with two local lenders that offer 6-60 month terms with rates starting around 7.99% APR for qualified buyers. We can also accept Hearth, Synchrony, or your own HELOC. We don’t push financing — many clients pay in stages tied to project milestones.
Can I live in my house during the remodel?
Yes, if you have a second bathroom. We seal off the work area with plastic to control dust, run the exhaust fan to a window, and clean up daily. If it’s your only bathroom, plan to stay elsewhere for 1-2 weeks during the demo and rough-in phase. We’ll tell you straight if it’s livable.
What’s covered under your warranty and insurance?
Our 5-year written warranty covers all labor and craftsmanship — tile, grout, plumbing connections, fixture installation, carpentry. Manufacturer warranties cover the products themselves (typically 1-10 years). We carry $2M general liability insurance and full workers’ comp. Certificates handed over before we start.
