Renton Primary Bathroom Remodel With Gold Fixtures
Project Transformation: Before & After
Primary Bathroom Oasis with Underfloor Heating & Gold Fixtures
This Renton primary bathroom was functional, but it lacked the modern, luxurious feel the homeowners dreamed of. They envisioned a personal oasis where they could unwind and relax after a long day. Their goal was to transform the dated space into a high-end retreat, complete with a freestanding tub, a spacious walk-in shower, and the warm, inviting glow of gold fixtures. The existing layout felt cramped, and the finishes were tired and uninspired. They wanted a space that was not only beautiful but also highly functional, incorporating modern amenities like heated flooring for those chilly Washington mornings.
The challenge was to reconfigure the space to accommodate a larger shower and a standalone tub without making the room feel crowded. Our design team at Grand Building Construction worked closely with the homeowners to create a layout that maximized every square inch. By relocating the toilet and vanity, we were able to open up the floor plan significantly. This allowed for a stunning freestanding tub to become the room’s focal point and for the creation of a generous, spa-like shower. The result is a breathtaking transformation from a basic bathroom to a truly custom, upscale sanctuary that perfectly reflects the homeowners’ style and enhances their daily routine.

Our Process
- Initial Consultation & Design: We started with a complimentary in-home consultation to understand the homeowners’ vision, needs, and budget. Our design team then created a detailed 3D rendering to help them visualize the final space, making adjustments until the design was perfect.
- Demolition and Preparation: Our crew carefully demolished the existing bathroom, taking it down to the studs to ensure a clean slate for the new layout and updated plumbing and electrical systems.
- Installation: This phase involved the meticulous installation of all new components. Our licensed plumbers and electricians re-routed pipes and wires for the new layout, including the heated flooring system. Our expert tile setters and carpenters then brought the design to life, installing the new vanity, tub, shower, and flooring.
- Finishing Touches: With the main elements in place, we focused on the details. This included painting, installing the gold fixtures, hanging mirrors and lighting, and ensuring every finish was flawless.
- Final Walkthrough: We conducted a final walkthrough with the homeowners to ensure every detail exceeded their expectations, providing them with all warranty information and care instructions for their new, beautiful bathroom.

Bathroom Remodeling FAQs
Do I need a permit for a bathroom remodel in Renton, WA?
Permits are typically required when a remodel involves plumbing, electrical, or layout changes. Grand Building Construction coordinates the permitting process and required inspections as part of your project, so everything is built to code.
Can I use my bathroom during a remodel?
During a full bathroom remodel, that bathroom is out of service while work is underway. If your home has a second bathroom, most homeowners stay in the home comfortably; we plan the sequence with you so you know what to expect at each stage.
What affects the cost of a bathroom remodel?
The biggest factors are the size of the bathroom, whether fixtures move or the layout changes, tile and fixture selections, and the condition of the plumbing behind the walls. A free in-home estimate is the most accurate way to price your specific project.
Do you help choose tile, fixtures, and finishes?
Yes. Material selection and planning are part of our process — we help you choose tile, vanities, fixtures, and finishes that fit your home and budget before construction begins.
