Shower Remodel in Mt Prospect, IL

At B&C Remodeling, a shower remodel means we do it right from the start. We strip your old shower to the studs, waterproof every surface correctly, and build back up with updated tile, fixtures, and glass. Mt Prospect, IL homeowners get a bathroom that looks sharp and holds up for years, not one that needs fixing again in three.

Why Choose Us for Shower Remodel

We've been a full-service remodeler.html">bathroom remodeler in Mt Prospect, IL for over 20 years. That means we've seen what cuts corners look like, and we don't do any of it. Every shower remodel we take on gets proper waterproofing behind the tile, solid substrate work, and fixtures set by people who know what they're doing.

We're a family-owned shop, so you talk to the same people from the first call to the final walkthrough. No subcontractors you've never met showing up unannounced. We keep the schedule tight, the site clean, and the work honest.

How We Work

We start with a free consultation to see your space and talk through what you want. From there, we help you pick tile, glass enclosure style, and fixtures that fit your budget. Then we demo the old shower completely, address any water damage we find behind the walls, and apply waterproof membrane before a single tile goes up. We finish with grout sealing, fixture installation, and a final walkthrough with you before we call it done.

Shower Remodel in Mt Prospect, IL

Homes in Mt Prospect, IL deal with real winters. Freeze-thaw cycles are hard on grout and caulk joints that weren't installed correctly, and older homes in the area often have moisture damage hiding behind original tile from decades ago. When we pull your shower apart, we check for all of it. We use materials rated for high-humidity environments and seal everything so the cold months don't crack or shift what we built.

What a Bathroom Shower Renovation Actually Covers

A bathroom shower renovation can mean a lot of different things. Some Mt Prospect, IL homeowners want a full gut-and-rebuild with a new footprint, new plumbing rough-in, and a frameless glass enclosure. Others need a simpler refresh, swapping out worn tile, a leaking pan, and dated fixtures without moving any walls. We handle both ends of that range.

What stays the same either way is the waterproofing. Whether it's a cosmetic update or a full tear-out, we never skip that step. Bad waterproofing is the number one reason showers fail early, and fixing it after the fact costs far more than doing it right the first time.

Tile, Glass, and Fixture Options

Picking materials is one of the better parts of the process. We work with a wide range of tile formats, from large-format porcelain slabs to classic subway styles, and we'll tell you honestly which ones hold up better in a wet environment. Glass options include framed, semi-frameless, and fully frameless enclosures depending on your layout and budget.

Fixtures matter more than most people think. A quality shower valve controls water temperature precisely and lasts decades. We carry options across price points and help you find the balance between what looks good and what performs.

Common Questions

How long does a shower remodel take in Mt Prospect, IL?
Most shower remodels run five to ten business days from demo to final seal, depending on the scope. If we find hidden water damage behind the walls, that can add a day or two. We give you a realistic timeline before we start and stick to it.
Do you handle the full bathroom remodel, or just the shower?
Both. We're a full bathroom remodeler, so if you want to update the vanity, flooring, or lighting while the shower is being rebuilt, we can coordinate all of it in one project. A lot of Mt Prospect, IL homeowners find it saves time and money to bundle the work.
What causes showers to fail and how do you prevent it?
The most common cause is poor waterproofing behind the tile. Water gets through grout lines, hits untreated cement board or drywall, and the damage builds up quietly for years. We use a proper waterproof membrane on every shower remodel we do, so that problem doesn't come back after we're gone.
