"Saw this guy driving on the highway with some serious road rage. Purposely swerving into another car and blocking them when they tried to pass. I wouldn't hire someone who loses their head that easily"

"We now have a beautiful kitchen. This price tag was on the high end, but that may have been due to either the high price of lumber at the time (Canadian wildfires) or the customer cabinetry that we needed or both. There were a few instances where I was glad we were on sight as I don’t know if the errors we saw would have been caught prior to them being installed. The upfront design and visualization is top notch, as is the quality of the material. The labor used to install was three star at best."

Yes, you can add a bathroom on a concrete slab, but the crew will need to saw-cut the slab, trench in new supply and drain lines, and then patch the concrete without weakening the foundation. Working with an experienced plumber and concrete pro keeps the structure intact and helps the new bathroom pass inspections.
schedule covers planning, permits, framing, rough-ins, finishes, and punch-list items.
Larger spaces or extensive plumbing and electrical upgrades can stretch the timeline, while a simple powder-room conversion may wrap up faster. Hiring licensed pros helps keep the schedule on track and the work up to code.
The best location depends on how your family uses the space. An upstairs bath keeps nighttime trips close to the bedrooms, while a first-floor powder room is handy for guests and everyday traffic.
Think about where plumbing lines already run, how much square footage you can spare, and what layout changes fit your budget. A pro can map out the smartest spot and handle any code hurdles.
With the right planning, you can carve out a bathroom in almost any part of the house. A successful addition requires sufficient space, proper ventilation, and access to plumbing and electrical systems. Structural modifications and adherence to building codes are essential.
This process demands careful planning and the coordination of specialized professionals who ensure that the new space meets all code requirements and functional needs.
Under specific conditions, adding an extra bedroom can boost home value more than adding a bathroom. Home value is driven by overall configuration, market demand, and functional balance. A new bedroom influences the property’s appeal in different ways, while an additional bathroom enhances living convenience. Evaluating the current layout and market trends determines the optimal choice for maximum value.
