Costs

Bathroom Remodeling cost in Lansing

Freeze-thaw cycling is the governing condition. Water that gets into masonry, grout or a roof detail expands when it freezes and widens the gap it entered through.

Waterproofing is the whole job. Tile is a wear surface, not a water barrier - what keeps water out of the framing is the membrane behind it, and a shower built without a proper pan and bonded membrane will rot the subfloor whatever it looks like.

Tub-to-shower conversions are the most requested change and the most commonly botched, usually at the curb and the drain: the pan has to slope to the drain evenly or water sits against the curb and finds the gap.

Large gray porcelain floor tiles being laid with leveling clips, a trowel and a mixing tub beside combed thin-set.

What the job includes

  • Tub-to-shower conversion
  • Waterproof pan and membrane systems
  • Tile shower and wet-room builds
