Bathroom renovation in Kennesaw, Georgia

Many Kennesaw houses are now thirty to forty years old, and that is when original showers fail. Common problems include tile set over ordinary drywall, a shower pan with no slope toward the drain, a liner that has split at the corners, and caulk being asked to stop water it was never designed to stop. By the time a ceiling stain appears downstairs, water has usually been reaching the subfloor for years.

We rebuild wet areas as waterproof systems. The pan is sloped to the drain. A bonded waterproofing membrane covers the substrate, with corners, niches, and valve openings sealed. Then we flood test it, before any tile goes on. You are welcome to see it. It is the part of the job you will never see again, and it decides whether the bathroom lasts.

What Kennesaw bathrooms usually need

• Primary bath: remove the rarely used garden tub and build a larger walk-in shower
• Hall bath: keep the tub for children, but replace the surround and valve and add real ventilation
• Any bath with a leak: open the floor, repair damaged subfloor or joists, then rebuild

Permits

Replacing fixtures in the same location may not need a permit. Moving a drain, adding a circuit, or changing the layout does. Depending on the address, the permit comes from the City of Kennesaw or Cobb County, and we handle it.
