Common Small Bathroom Problems We Solve
- Lack of Storage: Nowhere to keep toiletries, towels, or cleaning supplies without cluttering counters
- Poor Lighting: Dim, shadowy spaces that feel smaller and make grooming difficult
- Outdated Fixtures: Old toilets, sinks, or tubs that waste water and look worn
- Awkward Layouts: Doors that bump into toilets, tight walkways, or wasted corner space
- Mold & Moisture Issues: Persistent dampness, peeling paint, or mildew from poor ventilation
- Limited Counter Space: No room to set down items or get ready in the morning
- Cramped Shower/Tub: Small, dated enclosures that feel claustrophobic
- Cold Tile Floors: Chilly surfaces that make winter mornings uncomfortable
- Inefficient Plumbing: Slow drains, weak water pressure, or frequent clogs
Small Bathroom Remodeling Tips & How-To Guidance
- Use Light Colors: White, cream, or pale blue walls reflect light and make rooms feel 20-30% larger
- Install Floating Vanities: Wall-mounted sinks create floor space and make cleaning easier
- Add Corner Shelving: Utilize dead corners with triangular shelves or recessed niches for storage
- Choose Large Mirrors: Full-wall or oversized mirrors double the visual space and improve lighting
- Install Pocket Doors: Save 9-12 square feet by eliminating door swing space
- Use Vertical Storage: Tall cabinets and over-toilet shelving maximize height in compact rooms
- Pick Clear Shower Doors: Frameless glass prevents visual barriers that chop up small spaces
- Add Recessed Medicine Cabinets: Built-in storage keeps walls flush and saves 6 inches of depth
- Install Heated Floors: Radiant heating adds comfort without taking up space like radiators

Case Study: Capitol Hill Condo Transformation
A 45 sq ft bathroom in a 1970s Capitol Hill condo near the Space Needle felt dark and outdated. We removed the bulky tub, installed a frameless walk-in shower, added recessed shelving, and used large-format white tiles with LED lighting. The result: a bathroom that feels 30% larger, gets ready in half the time, and increased the condo’s value by $12,000 according to the owner’s appraisal.

Frequently Asked Questions
Most small bathroom projects take 7-10 business days from demolition to completion. Complex renovations involving layout changes or plumbing reroutes may take 2-3 weeks.
Absolutely. We work around your schedule, contain dust with barriers, and ensure you have access to other facilities. Many clients continue their routines with minimal disruption.
For a 35 sq ft bathroom, we recommend a corner shower, wall-mounted toilet, and floating vanity to maximize floor space. Pocket or barn doors save 9-12 square feet.
Porcelain or ceramic tile performs well in our damp climate. Large-format tiles (12×24 or bigger) create fewer grout lines and make spaces feel larger.
Yes, but you’ll need HOA or building approval first. We’re experienced with Seattle condo regulations and can help navigate approval processes and working hour restrictions.
