The second full bathroom of a Puyallup second-floor remodel: a dark-wood vanity with a white quartz top and a full-height linen tower, and a tub and shower in large-format tile with a recessed niche and a window for daylight.
When the Puyallup second floor was rebuilt around a spa master bath, the owners did not want the second bathroom left behind. It was rebuilt to the same standard: the same dark cabinetry, the same white quartz and the same brushed-nickel fittings.
It keeps a tub with a shower — the practical choice for a hall bath — now in large-format gray tile with a recessed niche and a window for daylight, plus a full-height linen tower that gives the floor its towel storage.
A dark-wood vanity with a white quartz top and a brushed-nickel faucet sits under a framed mirror and a warm light bar. Across the room, the tub and shower are wrapped in large-format gray tile with a recessed niche; the window over the tub stays, so the room gets daylight.
Floors and the path through the house covered; the room taken back to the studs and subfloor.
New supply and drain lines and electrical for the new layout, inspected before the walls close.
Cement board and a waterproofing membrane on every wet wall and on the shower floor.
Floor and wall tile set and grouted; niches, curbs and trim built in as the tile goes up.
Vanity, top, glass, fixtures, mirror and lighting installed and adjusted.
Final inspection, punch list and a walkthrough with the homeowners — then the warranty starts.
This bathroom came to $15,380 of the $82,300 second-floor contract; the master bath was $37,640, and the rest went to solid-wood doors and trim, new flooring and new windows. Here is where the $15,380 went.
This bath was one piece of a full second-floor remodel built around a spa master bath: solid-wood doors and trim in every room, new flooring across 1,400 sq ft, new windows and four times the light — ten weeks on one fixed price of $82,300.
