Bathroom Remodeling That Solves Real Problems — Not Just Cosmetic Ones
The bathrooms in Metro Atlanta's housing stock tell a familiar story. Ranch homes built in the 1970s and 1980s in Lilburn and Stone Mountain have harvest-gold tile and one-piece tub-shower combos that have seen better decades. Colonial-style homes in Snellville and Lawrenceville from the late 1980s and 1990s often have garden tub-and-separate-shower master baths that were luxurious then but feel dated and inefficient now. Builder-grade homes in Grayson and Loganville from the 2000s came with hollow-door cabinets, prefab shower surrounds, and fixtures that are showing their age before they should.
Whatever your bathroom's story, Woodward Renovations approaches every project the same way: find out what isn't working, figure out what's structurally feasible, and build something that functions beautifully for the way you actually use the space. That means waterproofing done correctly — not just adequately — tile set level and plumb, glass that's frameless or minimal-frame for easy cleaning, and plumbing that won't give you problems three years from now.
Bathrooms are technically demanding spaces. Water is involved in every system. Tile work that looks identical from across the room reveals its quality (or lack thereof) in the grout lines and corners. Shower pan waterproofing that was done in a hurry becomes a mold and rot problem behind your walls within a few years. This is exactly where unlicensed or under-experienced contractors cut corners — because the problems don't show up until after they've been paid.
Our bathroom crews do this work daily. Our tile setters take the time to plan layout before the first tile goes down, so you don't end up with a 2-inch slivers at the most visible corner. Our waterproofing follows the Schluter or Wedi system guidelines, not a slapped-on coat of RedGuard. Our plumbers run clean, well-supported supply and drain lines — not improvised runs that make the next plumber's face fall when they open the wall.
We handle projects from small hall bath refreshes (new vanity, toilet, tile floor, light fixture) to complete master bath gut renovations with layout reconfiguration, heated floors, custom tile showers with body sprays, and freestanding soaking tubs. Every project includes all required Gwinnett or DeKalb County permits, coordination with inspectors, and a final walkthrough before we consider the job done.
Bathroom Remodeling Scope Options
Every bathroom renovation is different, but here's how we typically categorize scope:
- Cosmetic Refresh — New vanity and mirror, updated light fixture, toilet replacement, new flooring (LVP or tile), fresh paint. No plumbing relocation.
- Mid-Range Renovation — New tile throughout (floor and tub/shower surround), new vanity and countertop, new plumbing fixtures, recessed lighting, updated ventilation fan.
- Full Master Bath Renovation — Complete gut, new layout if desired, custom tile shower with glass enclosure, freestanding or drop-in tub, double vanity, heated floors, specialty lighting.
- Tub-to-Shower Conversion — Remove existing tub and surround, waterproof and tile a walk-in shower, install frameless glass. One of our most-requested projects.
- ADA Accessibility Renovation — Barrier-free shower entry, grab bars, comfort-height toilet, wider doorway, blocking in walls for future grab bar installation.
What Shapes Your Metro Atlanta Bathroom Project
Every Metro Atlanta bathroom project is priced to the specific home, so there's not a flat rate. A 1970s hall bath refresh and a master suite gut renovation live at completely different ends of the scope spectrum.
- Scope & size — a single hall bath versus a full master suite, and how many fixtures, surfaces, and square feet of tile are involved
- Materials & finish level — porcelain vs. ceramic, stock vs. custom vanity, standard fixtures vs. frameless glass, body sprays, and heated floors
- Existing conditions — subfloor and prep, hidden moisture or rot in older Lilburn and Stone Mountain homes, and permits where plumbing or electrical is moved
- Design & upgrades — layout reconfiguration, curbless entries, double vanities, and custom tile patterns
Material costs are also moving with current market and tariff conditions, so we quote to today's pricing rather than a stale chart. The fastest way to a real number: get a free 2-minute estimate online for a high-level ballpark, then book a firm, no-cost in-home estimate when you're ready.
Why Atlanta Homeowners Choose Us for Bathroom Remodeling
Waterproofing Done Right
We use industry-standard waterproofing systems — Schluter KERDI, Wedi, or equivalent — for every shower and wet area. No RedGuard-only shortcuts. This protects your walls, your subfloor, and your investment for decades.
Expert Tile Setting
Our tile setters plan layout before cutting the first tile, use leveling systems for large-format tile, and take the extra time on transitions and corners that separate a professional job from a mediocre one.
Glass & Enclosure Specialists
We work with trusted Atlanta-area glass fabricators for frameless and semi-frameless shower enclosures. Proper measurement, proper hardware, and watertight installation.
ADA & Aging-in-Place
We design bathrooms for long-term usability — blocking in walls for grab bars, curbless shower entries, comfort-height toilets, and wider doorways. Planning now saves significant cost versus retrofitting later.
Plumbing We Stand Behind
Clean, properly sloped drain lines. Supply runs that are supported and don't rattle. Valve access where you need it. Work that meets Gwinnett County code because it was done correctly, not just inspected past.
Realistic Schedules
Bathrooms involve tile-setting cure times and inspection stages. We build these into the schedule and don't rush them — because a shower floor grouted before the mortar cures is a shower floor you'll redo in two years.
How Our Bathroom Remodeling Process Works
Free In-Home Consultation
We assess your bathroom, discuss what you want to change, and identify any structural or mechanical issues (old cast-iron drain lines, single-handle valve that won't work with a multi-spray system, etc.) before you commit to anything.
Design & Tile Selection
We help you choose tile that works with your home's style and your budget. We'll talk through layout options — offset vs. stacked, accent wall placement, floor pattern — so you're confident in the final design before demo begins.
Permitting & Scheduling
We pull required permits, order long-lead items (custom vanities, specialty tile), and give you a detailed project schedule. If you only have one bathroom, we'll sequence work to minimize the days without running water.
Demo & Rough-In
Careful demo to avoid damaging adjacent finishes. Any hidden issues (old plumbing, moisture damage behind tile) are documented, photographed, and discussed with you before repair work begins. No surprises added to the invoice.
Waterproofing, Tile, & Fixtures
Proper waterproofing membrane first, then backerboard, then tile. Mortar cure time is respected before grouting. Glass enclosure is measured after tile is complete — never before. Fixtures and vanity go in last.
Final Inspection & Walkthrough
We walk through every detail with you — grout lines, caulk joints, glass alignment, fixture function, drawer operation. Any punch list items are addressed immediately, not someday.
