Bathroom Remodeling Built for Smyrna Homes

Bathrooms in Smyrna's older housing were retrofitted into homes that were built without them, which is why they're often tucked under a stair, wedged into a former closet, or added over an unheated back room. The results are predictable: a 4x7 room with the door swinging into the toilet, no exhaust, uninsulated exterior walls that freeze the supply lines, and a floor that's soft at the corner.

We gut those rooms completely, insulate the exterior walls, re-plumb with lines run inside conditioned space so they don't freeze, add a properly ducted fan, and rebuild the layout, a pocket or reversed door, a corner shower with clear glass instead of a curtain, a wall-hung or shallow vanity, and full-height tile that pushes the eye up. Newer Smyrna homes get the standard primary-bath upgrade: tub removal, oversized walk-in shower, stone, and better lighting.

Because so many older Smyrna bathrooms were added onto houses that never had one, we check the joists and subfloor during the gut rather than after the tile is ordered. That single step is why our Smyrna bath remodels do not develop soft spots or sagging floors a year later.
