Vancouver Shower Rebuild: Before, During & After
This Vancouver bathroom started with an old bathtub and outdated finishes. At the client’s request, we removed the tub entirely and built a modern walk-in shower in its place: demolished down to the studs, relocated the shower, roughed in a new drain and PEX plumbing, installed a new shower base with 100% waterproof walls, and finished it with large-format porcelain tile, a recessed niche, and a frameless sliding glass door.

Bathroom Renovations in Vancouver — Strata Condos and Older Homes
Across Vancouver we work in West End and downtown strata towers, low-rise condos in Kitsilano and Mount Pleasant, and detached homes in Kerrisdale, Marpole, along Commercial Drive, in Renfrew-Collingwood and Hastings-Sunrise. In a Vancouver strata, expect a formal renovation application: council approval before demolition, set work hours (often weekdays only), a booked service elevator, and protection for hallways and parkades. Stratas also usually require proof of contractor insurance and a WorkSafeBC clearance letter, and they don’t allow changes to common property — which includes the plumbing stacks, so fixture locations normally stay where they are. Detached Vancouver homes give more layout freedom, but many are 60 to 100 years old, so opening walls can turn up old galvanized pipe or wiring that needs attention. Moving a toilet or shower drain calls for a City of Vancouver plumbing permit; electrical changes need a licensed electrician and a Technical Safety BC permit.
