Garner, NC
Garner has some of the more established housing south of Raleigh, and with older homes come older bathrooms and owners who have been in them a long time.
Local work
The west and south sides of Garner are where the settled single-family housing is, and a good share of it has been lived in by the same family for decades. Those bathrooms are usually original. Cast iron tubs, small footprints, tile that was good work in its day, and a layout built for a household that has since changed shape.
The most common request we get here is not a cosmetic update. It is making a bathroom that somebody can keep using comfortably: getting over the side of a tub is the first thing that becomes difficult in a house, and it tends to happen years before anyone would describe it as a mobility problem.
Garner is uneven though. Newer pockets have builder bathrooms that only need an upgrade, and we quote those the same way. Either job starts with an in-home visit, because in a forty-year-old bathroom nobody can price the work honestly from a photo.
What we do
Every job is stone and tile, installed by our own crew, backed by a lifetime workmanship warranty.
Most asked for in Garner
Accessible & ADA Bathroom Remodeling. In Garner this is the work we are asked for most, and it is rarely framed as an accessibility job. Somebody simply wants to stop climbing over the side of a tub. A zero-threshold shower, a built-in seat and grab bars that look like towel bars rather than hospital fittings will do that, and the room still reads as a normal bathroom. It is also far cheaper to build in now than to retrofit later.
Everything out, everything new. We take the room back to studs where it needs it, sort out anything hiding in the walls or under the floor, then rebuild with stone, tile and fixtures you picked yourself. One crew, one project lead, and a finish date you can plan around.
Real stone and tile, cut to your space. No thin acrylic liner dropped over the old surround. We build the pan properly, waterproof behind the wall, and finish with glass that suits the room instead of a framed door that dates it.
If nobody in the house has taken a bath in years, that tub is wasted floor space. We pull it, rebuild the alcove as a full shower with a low or zero threshold, and add a bench or grab bar if you want one. Most conversions run about a week.
A sealed door so you step in instead of climbing over. We handle the plumbing, the electrical for the jets and heater, and the surround around it. Useful long before anyone calls it a mobility issue.
Zero-threshold entries, wider doorways, a seat that is part of the design rather than bolted on afterwards, and grab bars that look like towel bars. Built so the room still reads as a bathroom, not a hospital.
The room where the layout usually fights you. We look at what the space could be before we quote it, which often means trading an unused corner tub for a bigger shower, a double vanity, or both.
Budget
We do not publish a price list, because two bathrooms the same size can be thousands apart. These are the four things that move the number.
Replacing a shower where it already sits is the cheapest version. Price climbs once plumbing shifts or a wall opens, because that brings permits and more trades.
Stone and tile cost more than a moulded surround and last far longer. Glass is the other swing: a framed door is a fraction of a frameless panel.
The one nobody can price from a photo. A soft subfloor, a bad valve or a slow leak all add work. We look first and put what we find in writing.
A guest bath with one sink is a different job from a primary with a double vanity, a tub and a tiled shower. More fixtures means more days on site.
Garner covers a wide range of housing ages, and that is what moves the price here. In the established neighbourhoods the unknown is what sits behind forty-year-old tile. In the newer pockets it is simply which materials you pick. We look before we quote either way.

Step-over tub swapped for a walk-in tub with a sealed door, so bathing stays safe at home.
How it works
Tell us which bathroom and roughly what you want changed. Photos help. We come back with a time that suits you rather than a half-day window.
We measure, look under the floor and behind the wall where we can get to it, and go through options with you in the room itself.
A fixed scope and price, plus a finish date. Nothing is ordered until you have seen it and there is no push to sign on the first visit.
Our own crew, one project lead to call, and the site cleaned at the end of each day. Lifetime workmanship warranty on what we install.
Why us
Older bathrooms turn up surprises, so we look under the floor and behind the wall before we quote rather than raising it on install day. Our own crew does the install, and the written price is the price.
Questions
Yes, and it is a lot of what we do in Garner. We check the supply lines, the drain and the subfloor while the wall is open and tell you what needs replacing rather than finding it halfway through.
That is the point of doing it properly. A zero-threshold entry, a seat built into the design and grab bars that match the fixtures give you the same function without the room looking clinical.
Now, by a wide margin. Building a zero-threshold entry while the floor is already open costs very little extra. Retrofitting one later means opening everything again.
In houses this age it happens. We show you, price the repair, and you decide before we carry on. Nothing gets added to the bill without your approval.
Yes. They are heavy and they usually have to come out in pieces, which we plan for rather than discovering on the day.
Yes. If you would rather keep the option of a bath, a walk-in tub with a sealed door does that. We can show you both at the showroom in Cary before you decide.
When the job needs one, yes. We pull it and meet the inspector, so you are not dealing with the county.
A lifetime workmanship warranty on what we install. Tubs, glass and fixtures carry their own manufacturer warranties and we hand those over when the job is finished.
