Bathroom Remodeling in Tumwater
People in Tumwater call Greg for bathroom remodels, tile showers, tub surrounds and new vanities. He's a licensed, bonded and insured general contractor out of Rainier, about 16 miles away, and every Tumwater job starts with a free estimate.
Out here on the South Sound prairies a lot of the work is on acreage — barns, shops, barndominiums and new homes on open ground, where the gravelly soil drains well but the wind comes across with nothing to stop it. A good bath remodel looks better when it is done, but its real job is keeping water inside the shower and out of the floor and walls.
One customer called Greg “a man of integrity.” Another wrote that he “does excellent work.”
What's included
Bathroom Remodeling we do in Tumwater
- 01
Tile showers and tub surrounds
Tiled walk-in showers and tub surrounds built over a fully waterproofed backer, with niches and benches where they fit.
- 02
Tub-to-shower conversions
Swapping an old tub nobody uses for a walk-in shower, with the drain and valve moved to suit the new layout.
- 03
Vanities, sinks and fixtures
Single or double vanities, vessel sinks or a live-edge wood top if you want one, plus faucets, toilets, mirrors and storage.
- 04
Subfloor and rot repair
Cutting out soft subfloor and rotted framing around the toilet and tub so the new floor sits on solid wood.
- 05
Exhaust fans and lighting
A properly sized fan ducted to the outside, plus vanity and ceiling lights and the outlets you need.
- 06
Easier-access bathrooms
Low-threshold or curbless showers, blocking for grab bars and wider doorways for a bathroom that works for the long haul.
Thurston County, WA
Bathroom Remodeling around Tumwater
Greg works all over Tumwater — near Pioneer Park, Olympic Flight Museum and Mount Molly and out by Trosper Lake — and throughout Thurston County.
Tumwater sits at Tumwater Falls on the Deschutes River, just south of Olympia along I-5. Tumwater is about 16 miles northwest of our base in Rainier, well inside our 100-mile service area.
Western Washington buildings fight water more than anything — months of rain, moss on the roof, rot wherever wood stays wet, and soils that hold moisture. A building lasts when it sits on a proper foundation with drainage around it, is wrapped and flashed right, and is built to dry out.
How it works
How your Tumwater bathroom remodel job works
- 1
Free on-site estimate
Greg looks at the room, checks for signs of water damage and talks through what you want, then gives you a free estimate.
- 2
Layout and selections
We decide on the layout, tile, vanity and fixtures and order them early, so the room is not torn apart while you wait on parts.
- 3
Tear-out, repairs and rough-in
We strip the old bathroom to the framing, repair any rot, and set plumbing, wiring and the fan duct for inspection.
- 4
Waterproofing, tile and finish
Backer and waterproofing go in, then tile, vanity, fixtures and trim. We clean up and test everything with you.

Questions
Bathroom Remodeling in Tumwater: FAQs
Do you do bathroom remodeling in Tumwater, WA?
Yes. Tumwater is about 16 miles northwest of our base in Rainier, well inside our 100-mile service area. Greg handles bathroom remodels, tile showers, tub surrounds and new vanities there, and the estimate is free.
Do I need a permit for bathroom remodeling in Tumwater?
It depends on the project. When one is needed, Greg pulls the permit from the City of Tumwater's building department and builds to whatever the permit and inspection require.
Why do bathrooms in Western Washington rot out?
Mostly from moisture that never leaves. Months of cool, damp weather mean a weak fan lets steam soak into walls and ceilings, and a small leak at a tub or toilet can rot the subfloor for years before it shows. We fix the cause with real waterproofing and a fan vented outside, not just the damage you can see.
How long does a bathroom remodel take?
A straight swap of fixtures and finishes goes faster than a remodel that moves plumbing or builds a custom tile shower, and Greg gives you a schedule with the estimate. Ordering tile and fixtures before demolition keeps the bathroom out of service for as short a time as possible.
Can you turn our tub into a walk-in shower?
Yes, it is one of the most common bathroom requests. We remove the tub, rework the drain and valve, waterproof the new shower, and tile it with a low curb or a curbless entry where the floor framing allows.
Do I need a permit for a bathroom remodel?
Often, yes, especially when plumbing, wiring or walls change. Greg pulls the permit through your county or city and schedules the inspections, so the work is on record when you sell the house.
