Bathroom remodeling in Sammamish
Bathroom Remodeling in Sammamish, WA
Primary and secondary bathrooms for larger, newer Sammamish homes, waterproofed to last and built like a retreat. Local pricing, permits through the City of Sammamish Community Development Department, and an honest number on paper before demo.
The promise
A Sammamish bathroom remodel that turns a dated primary bath into a retreat
Most Sammamish bathroom projects are about a big, tired primary bath, or a garden tub nobody uses. You get a shower waterproofed as a system, a layout designed to unwind in, a fixed number before demo, and one licensed team start to finish.
Why choose us
Why Sammamish homeowners choose us for their bathroom
01
Waterproofing built for a big walk-in shower
In a large curbless or steam shower, the waterproofing does more work and has more ways to fail. We build the sloped pan, the membrane, and the drain as one sealed system before any tile goes up, because in these bathrooms the shower is the whole room, and its weak point.
02
The primary bath designed as a retreat
This is where the value sits in a Sammamish home: a double vanity, a freestanding soaker, a proper water closet, heated floors, and a shower you actually want to stand in. We design the primary bath as a place to unwind, not a room you pass through.
03
A fixed number before demo
We itemize the tile, glass, fixtures, and stone with real allowances and lock the price before demo. On a large primary bath with high-end selections, that discipline is the difference between a plan and a running tab.
04
We handle the Sammamish permit
When the work moves plumbing or electrical, or adds a steam unit or heated floor, it goes through the City of Sammamish Community Development Department. We prepare the submittal, pull the permit, and manage the inspections.

Permits
Bathroom remodel permits in Sammamish
A finish-only bathroom update usually skips the permit; once it moves plumbing or electrical, or adds steam or a heated floor, it needs one. Here is how that works and how we carry it.
-
What needs a permit
Moving plumbing or electrical, or adding a steam generator or heated floor, needs a permit. A like-for-like finish update often does not. We tell you which applies before demo.
-
Filed through the Sammamish Permit Center
Bathroom permits run through the City of Sammamish Community Development Department and its online permit center. We prepare the submittal and carry it through plan review and inspection so you are not chasing the city.
-
Timelines you can plan around
Review time depends on scope and the city queue. We build the permit window into the schedule up front so it does not quietly delay your bathroom.
Local homes
What Sammamish homes mean for your bathroom remodel
Sammamish bathrooms are newer, larger, and often oversized in the wrong places. These are the local realities we design around.
-
Losing the garden tub nobody uses
Many Sammamish primary baths came with a big builder-era garden or jetted tub that gets used twice a year while the shower stays cramped. The most requested remodel here reclaims that space for a large walk-in shower, sometimes with a slim freestanding soaker instead.
-
Builder-era waterproofing at the end of its life
Even in a newer home, a shower pan or mud-set tile from the 1990s or 2000s can be failing quietly. We open it up, check what is behind the tile, and rebuild the waterproofing properly rather than tiling over a tired system.
-
Spa features planned from the start
Steam showers, heated floors, body sprays, and freestanding fillers each carry their own plumbing, electrical, and waterproofing needs. On these larger baths we design them in from day one, not bolt them on at the end.
-
More than one bathroom at a time
Larger Sammamish homes often have three or four baths, and homeowners frequently tackle the primary and a secondary together. We sequence a multi-bath project so you always have a working bathroom while we build.

FAQ
Sammamish bathroom remodeling FAQs
Can you replace my garden tub with a large walk-in shower?
Yes, and it is the single most requested bathroom project we do in Sammamish. We remove the underused garden or jetted tub, build a large walk-in or curbless shower in its place with a proper sloped pan and waterproofing, and often add a slim freestanding soaker if you still want a tub.
Why do Sammamish bathroom remodels cost more than average?
Because so many are large primary baths with high-end selections, steam showers, freestanding tubs, heated floors, double vanities, and stone. We do smaller secondary baths too. Either way we price against your actual bathroom and lock the number before demo rather than quoting a Sammamish average.
Can you build a curbless or steam shower?
Yes. A curbless entry needs the right sloped pan, linear drain, and waterproofing; a steam shower adds a sealed ceiling, a steam generator, and its own electrical. We plan and build both as complete systems so they perform and stay watertight.
Do I need a permit for a bathroom remodel in Sammamish?
If you move plumbing or electrical, or add a steam unit or heated floor, yes, through the City of Sammamish Community Development Department. A like-for-like finish update often does not. We pull the permit on anything that needs one and manage the inspections.
Can you remodel more than one bathroom at once?
Yes, and it is common in larger Sammamish homes. We sequence a multi-bath project so at least one bathroom stays usable throughout, and doing them together often saves on shared trades and mobilization.
What Sammamish neighborhoods do you work in?
All of them, from Pine Lake, Klahanie, and Beaver Lake to Trossachs, Sahalee, and the wider plateau, plus the surrounding Eastside.
