Bathroom Remodeling in Millbrae
WDC builds high-specification bathrooms in Millbrae — primary suites, guest baths, and powder rooms — with custom tile work, stone, fixtures, and full MEP coordination pulled under a single permit. We treat bathroom remodels with the same construction standards we apply to full home renovations, because the finish expectations in Millbrae require it.
Bathroom Remodeling Scope
A WDC bathroom remodel is permit-pulled, full-trade construction. Typical scope:
- Full demolition to substrate — no overlay work
- Waterproofing system installation — Schluter or equivalent behind all wet surfaces
- Plumbing relocation where fixture placement changes are involved
- Custom tile installation — large-format porcelain, marble, handmade ceramic
- Custom vanity and millwork — fabricated to specification
- Stone countertop and shower surround fabrication
- Fixtures and hardware — Waterworks, Kallista, Gessi, Lefroy Brooks
- Radiant floor heating with thermostat control
- Electrical — GFCI compliance, dedicated circuits, lighting design
- Steam shower or freestanding soaking tub installation where specified
Tile, slab, and grout joinery held to architectural standard.
The shower niche is where bath builders show their hand. Zellige set tight, slab face continuous through the niche back, grout line warm-gray to match. WDC’s MEP and tile trades run the room together, never subbed out of sequence.
Bathroom Remodeling as Part of a Larger Renovation
In Millbrae, the primary suite bathroom is rarely remodeled in isolation — it is typically part of a primary suite expansion, a floor-level renovation, or a whole-home project. WDC handles both standalone bathroom remodels and bathrooms as part of a larger coordinated scope.
If you are considering multiple bathrooms or your bathroom project connects to other work in the home, a full-scope consultation with WDC will show you the efficiency of coordinating all spaces under a single permit set and construction schedule.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do bathroom remodels require permits in Millbrae?
Yes — any work involving plumbing relocation, electrical, or structural changes requires permits from Millbrae building department. WDC handles permit submission and manages inspections through the project.
How long does a primary suite bathroom remodel take?
A full primary bathroom remodel in Millbrae — including design, permits, custom fabrication, and construction — typically takes 3–5 months. Projects with long-lead custom tile or stone may run longer depending on material availability.
Can you match an existing tile or stone that has been discontinued?
In some cases, yes — we work with specialty sourcing partners for discontinued materials. In other cases, we help clients make a design decision that advances rather than compromises the space. We address this during the design phase before construction begins.
