Upgrade your home with professional bathroom remodeling in Ann Arbor, MI. Ann arbor’s core neighbourhoods date to the early 1900s, with a large stock of houses converted to rentals near campus, including the Old West Side, Burns Park, Water Hill, Kerrytown and the Oxbow. Rebuilding a bathroom in an Ann Arbor house of this age is a drainage problem first and a design problem second — the original framing dictates what is possible.

Discover the Benefits of Working with Us
Many Ann Arbor houses never had a ground-floor bathroom at all, so adding one means finding a drain route through century-old framing.
Old West Side and Normal Park houses can still have original drain lines and knob-and-tube wiring running nearby. We open the wall, show you what is actually behind it, and quote the plumbing honestly instead of discovering it halfway through the job.
Bathrooms on exterior walls take a beating from December to March. Century-old walls with little cavity insulation make ventilation the deciding factor in a Washtenaw bathroom. We insulate behind new plumbing runs and specify ventilation that actually moves moisture out of the room.
Ann Arbor quotes run higher because almost nothing in a century-old house is standard-dimensioned, and the allowances have to reflect that honestly. You get an itemised estimate before anyone picks up a hammer. Financing is available on approved credit so a full remodel can be spread across monthly payments.
We work the Old West Side, Burns Park, Water Hill, Kerrytown and the Oxbow regularly. Historic district review can add time before work starts in Ann Arbor, so we open the permit process early.
Where original hex tile, a clawfoot tub or period trim survives in an Old West Side house, keeping it is usually the better decision. We design to the house you own instead of dropping one showroom layout into every job.
Moving plumbing means pulling a permit. We file with the right authority for your address and meet the inspector on site.
Cost depends far more on what sits behind the wall than on square footage. A cosmetic refresh sits at the low end; relocating a drain or replacing corroded supply lines in an older Ann Arbor home raises it. We give you a written, itemised estimate after seeing the space, at no charge.
If you are moving plumbing or altering electrical, yes. Ann Arbor permits through its city building department, and homes in a designated historic district carry additional review. Straight fixture swaps in the same location often do not require one. We handle filing and scheduling either way.
Most projects run one to three weeks on site. Historic-district review in Ann Arbor can add time at the front end, before any work begins. Tile setting and inspection scheduling drive the timeline more than demolition does, and we give you a day-by-day sequence before we start.
Yes. Financing is available on approved credit with several term lengths. Older Washtenaw houses turn up more surprises once the walls are open, so a financing buffer is worth having. We provide the monthly figure alongside the written estimate.
