Schlickmann Construction renovates bathrooms across Greater Boston and southern New Hampshire — from quick refresh updates to luxury spa-style master suites. We handle plumbing, electrical, tile, vanity, lighting, and finishes under one accountable team.

Bathroom renovation in Greater Boston ranges from a one-day vanity swap to a four-week master suite gut renovation. Schlickmann Construction handles the full spectrum across Stoneham, Winchester, Brookline, Cambridge, Medford, Newton, Lexington, and Reading — from compact powder rooms to spa-style primary bathrooms with heated marble floors, frameless glass showers, and freestanding tubs.

What separates a great bathroom remodel from a frustrating one is waterproofing discipline and trade coordination. We install Schluter or Wedi waterproofing systems behind every wet wall, hand-set tile with proper expansion joints, and pressure-test every plumbing rough-in before tile goes down. Your shower won't leak in five years because we built it like it should last thirty.

Our typical scope includes complete demolition, sub-floor and structural assessment, plumbing and electrical rough-in upgrades to current Massachusetts code, full waterproofing, custom vanity and millwork, tile and stone work, fixture installation, lighting design, painting, and a final walkthrough with warranty handover. We pull the permit, schedule the inspections, and coordinate every trade — you get one clear timeline and one fixed price.
