Bathroom remodeling is demanding because water touches almost every surface, and mistakes hidden behind tile show up later as stains on the ceiling below. JDG remodels bathrooms in Centereach, Selden and across Long Island with the same mindset we bring to concrete: what you cannot see decides how long the finished work lasts.
What is included
- Demolition with the house protected
- Subfloor and framing repairs
- Waterproofing behind tubs and showers
- Tub and shower installation
- Floor and wall tile with recessed niches
- Vanities, mirrors and lighting sized right
- Fixtures and finish carpentry
Why it lasts
Tile and grout are not waterproof on their own. Proper waterproofing behind surrounds and on floors is what protects the framing and the rooms below from years of daily showers.
Tile layout is planned before the first piece is set, so full tiles land where they should and lines run straight from floor to ceiling. A crooked first course becomes a crooked wall up top.
Questions homeowners ask
Is waterproofing really necessary behind tile?
Yes. Tile and grout are not waterproof on their own. Proper waterproofing behind tub surrounds and showers is what protects the framing and the ceiling below.
We only have one bathroom. How do you handle that?
We talk about timing before the job starts and sequence the work to keep the downtime as short as possible.
Do I need a permit for a bathroom remodel?
It depends on the scope and your town. Moving plumbing, electrical or walls usually requires one; a cosmetic refresh often does not. We go over what applies to your project during the site visit.
