Bathroom demolition, done in a day

Most bathrooms can be fully gutted in a single day. We remove the toilet, vanity, tub or shower, tile, mortar beds, drywall or plaster and flooring down to the subfloor. Old cast-iron tubs are broken up or carried out whole and go to the scrap yard with the other metal.

Bathrooms hide surprises behind the tile: rotted subfloor, old galvanized pipe or past water damage. Because we work by hand, we spot these early and show you or your contractor before anything gets covered up again.

What we look for behind the tile

Once the walls and floor are open, we check for soft or rotted subfloor around the toilet and tub, signs of past leaks, and old plumbing that your plumber may want to replace. We photograph anything unusual and send it to you the same day, so your contractor can plan the rebuild without delays.
