About this project

How we work
How a project like this comes together
The same five steps run every Quartz job, from the first visit to the final walkthrough. One team designs, permits and builds it.
Measure and design
We measure the room, check plumbing locations and plan the shower, vanity and storage.
Selections
Tile, fixtures, vanity, glass and lighting are chosen before work starts.
Demolition and rough-in
The old bathroom comes out; plumbing, electrical and ventilation are updated and inspected.
Waterproofing and tile
The shower is waterproofed, then wall and floor tile, niches and drains go in.
Fixtures and walkthrough
Vanity, glass, fixtures and mirrors are installed and we walk the finished room with you.
Questions & answers
Bathrooms: common questions
Planning something similar? These are the questions homeowners ask us most. Anything else, just call.
(650) 749-7436Do bathroom remodels need a permit?
Most do when plumbing, electrical or ventilation changes. We handle the permit and inspections.
How do you waterproof a tiled shower?
Shower walls and floors get a waterproofing system before any tile goes in, with sloped floors and a proper drain, so water never reaches the framing.
Can a tub be replaced with a walk-in shower?
Yes, in many bathrooms. We check the plumbing, floor and room size first.
What is a linear drain?
A long, narrow drain along one edge of the shower. It lets the floor slope one way, which works well with large tiles and curbless or low-curb showers.
Do you offer free estimates?
Yes. We measure your bathroom and give you a written estimate before work starts.
