Bathroom Remodeling Contractor

A Better Morning Routine.

A well designed bathroom helps us start each day better and save time on routine tasks. It can also provide an a place to relax and recharge. Unfortunately most bathrooms were not designed for the way we live today and need to be remodeled to suit our needs.

McManus Kitchen and Bath makes bathroom remodeling easier by providing a full service showroom where you can meet with interior designers and construction experts to help you create a beautiful and functional bath.

Bathroom Remodeling 101: Our Process

We start with a discovery call to learn more about your project and tell you a little about us and how we work. If we decide we are a good fit for each other we will schedule a desing and budget consult (read more about that here).

After your consult you’ll have a detailed budget and 3D concept for your bathroom remodel. The next step is to approve your budget so we can move into the design process.

Your Bathroom Design

Bathroom remodeling is complex a big mistake many contractors make is not spending enough time in design to get the details right. Some bathrooms need to be practical and efficient, others more lurious and spa like.  We want to spend some time figuring our your needs so we can design the right bath for you.

We start with a good layout that meets or exceeeds universal design guidelines.  This becomes the “bones’ of the design and we layer fixtures, colors and patterns on top of that. A bathroom with ‘good bones’ is timeless and will serve you well for decades, even as trends come and go.

No Allowances, No Unexpected Delays

Another common mistake is using allowances instead of choosing all materials up front. Starting the project without all materials selected ineveitable leads to delays and increased costs.

There are enough unknowns in bathroom remodeling without introducing more. We make all material selections in design, down to the last light switch. We then order everything and store it in our warehouse until the project starts. That way there are no delays due to backorders, shipping damages or mistakes.

Keeping You In The Loop

Once design is done there is waiting period until the project starts. It can take 12-20 weeks to get cabinets and other fixtures. During this period we will send you regular updates to let you know that things are on track, what materials have arrived and what we are still waiting for.

About Three weeks before your bathroom remodeling project starts your project manager will schedule a Pre-Construction meeting with you at your home to discuss site prep, the project calendar and what to expect during the first week of the project.

Managing the project

Your project calendar, created during design,  will outline what to expect every day of the project. Your project manager also sends you updates each day using daily logs in our project portal.  These daily logs are sent at least three times a day:

• at 8 am to let you know who to expect on site that day and what will be done.
• Mid day when your project manager is on site they will do a daily log with progress pictures
• At the end of the day they will update you on what got done and the plan for the following day or days.
