Bathroom renovations in Atlanta require special consideration for both historic charm and modern expectations. We blend these needs seamlessly.
In Craftsman bungalows, we preserve original pipe layouts while upgrading fixtures to contemporary efficiency. Tile showers get extra waterproofing - crucial in our humid climate. For mid-century homes, we address the common undersized drains and venting issues that cause slow drainage.
All our remodels include future-proofing: extra access panels for plumbing in tiled walls, whole-house water pressure testing, and anti-scald valves meeting Georgia safety codes. We coordinate with local preservation boards when working in historic districts like Cabbagetown or Druid Hills.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you match my home's original fixtures?
We maintain relationships with local salvage yards and reproduction manufacturers to preserve period charm while improving functionality.
How do you prevent mold in shower renovations?
Beyond standard waterproofing, we install humidity-sensing fans and use antimicrobial grouts proven in Atlanta's climate. Extra attention goes to exterior walls prone to condensation.
What's the biggest bathroom plumbing mistake here?
Not accounting for clay soil movement. We always install flexible supply lines and reinforce drain connections to prevent cracks during seasonal shifts.
