The questions people ask first.

Most full bathrooms we take on land between $15,000 and $25,000. What moves the number is the size of the room, whether the layout stays where it is, and the tile and fixtures you choose.

Moving a toilet or a shower means opening the floor and rerouting drains, and that is usually the single biggest difference between two bathrooms that look the same size.

You get a written estimate before anything starts, and the price we give is the price you pay.

A full bathroom is usually two to three weeks on site. A kitchen is normally three to five weeks, because cabinetry and stone both have lead times that start before we do.

We give you a start date and an end date with the estimate, and we work straight through rather than starting your job and disappearing onto another.

Yes, for most of it. Once the room is stripped it stays out of use until the tiling is grouted and the fixtures are back in, which is most of the two to three weeks. If it is your only bathroom, tell us when you ask for the quote and we will plan around it.

The rest of the house stays usable. We protect the floors we walk over, and the site is cleaned at the end of every day rather than at the end of the job.

Usually only if the work changes the plumbing or electrical layout, or touches a wall that is holding something up. Replacing a bathroom in the same footprint often does not need one, while moving a toilet, adding a circuit, or taking out a wall generally does.

Rules differ between Port Coquitlam, Coquitlam, Port Moody and Pitt Meadows. We will tell you which side of the line your job falls on before you commit to anything.

We do it. Our plumbing and electrical work, which includes red seal certification, is done by our own skilled and experienced team.

Bathman provides all the trades, everything in house, minimizing time and ensuring quality craftsmanship. You are not booking three companies and hoping they turn up in the right order.

No. You pick the colours and the fixtures and we handle the rest, including ordering and collecting everything.

We usually get a better price on tile than a homeowner can, and that saving goes into the job rather than onto the invoice.

You do not need a designer. Most people come to us with a rough idea and we work it through with them. At Bathman, we take your design ideas, your needs and transform your living space into an environment that will reflect your personality.

If you already have a designer, we work alongside them. Several of the people who recommend us are designers.

One year workmanship warranty on all renovations. All fixtures come with their factory warranty.

We are also still here, which is the part that matters. The business has been running since 1987 and the people who did your bathroom are the people who answer the phone afterwards.

Port Coquitlam, Coquitlam, Port Moody and Pitt Meadows. We keep the area tight on purpose, so travel is not priced into your job and we can get back quickly if something needs adjusting.

No. We work out of large vehicles that will not fit in underground parking, so condo and apartment buildings are not something we can take on. Houses and townhomes are what we do.
