Project Breakdown

Bellevue bathroom remodel case study: walk-in shower, vanity, and heated tile

This Bellevue primary bathroom remodel replaced a cramped tub-and-shower layout with a larger walk-in shower, frameless glass, heated porcelain tile floors, and a floating double vanity.

Primary intent

Trade an underused tub for a daily-use shower with better access and storage.

Best upgrade

A large-format porcelain shower with frameless glass and a linear drain.

Budget control

Kept plumbing changes targeted instead of rebuilding the entire suite footprint.

Daily value

Better shower space, easier cleaning, warmer floors, and a more useful vanity.

The Challenge

The master bathroom had a cramped layout with a rarely-used soaking tub, outdated tile, and a small shower stall. Grout was stained, fixtures were corroded, and the vanity was falling apart.

Our Solution

We removed the tub to create a spacious 5x3 walk-in shower with floor-to-ceiling large-format porcelain tile and a linear drain. Installed a 60-inch floating double vanity with quartz top, frameless glass shower enclosure, heated floors, and modern brushed nickel fixtures throughout.

Contractor Notes

What Homeowners Should Learn From This Remodel

These are the details that separate a clean remodeling plan from a vague quote.

Waterproofing came first

For bathroom remodeling, tile is the visible finish but waterproofing is the system that protects the project. We planned membrane details, shower slope, drain location, and glass dimensions before tile installation.

Bellevue homeowner concern

Primary bathrooms in Bellevue homes often carry resale expectations. The remodel needed to feel premium without spending money on low-use features.

How to compare a bid like this

Ask whether shower glass, waterproofing system, valve trim, vanity top, heated floor thermostat, fan work, painting, and warranty are included.
