Project Description – Bathroom Renovation Beverly, MA

This bathroom remodel was dated and ready to be redone to match with the current time period. The gold accents and the busy wallpaper made the space feel small and dark. The tile flooring was also small and matched the color of the wall paper, making the bathroom feel overwhelming. Bringing this bathroom up to date and giving it a new color scheme was exactly what it needed.

Project Plan

This design build project included a new bathroom layout and interior elevations as well as new lighting, switch, and outlet locations. We took measurements of the existing space, which allowed us to be able to create a demolition plan. By creating this plan, we knew exactly where everything was, which was beneficial when creating the new plan. For the new plan, we were able to keep the locations of the sink, toilet, and shower the same for the plumbing, but just change the fixtures themselves.

Project Challenges

The challenge on this project was to make sure that the HVAC contractor performs his work. Our HVAC contractor went for a vacation and we had to complete this project with another firm. It was a true hassle, but we made sure he completes the job per our standards.
