Planning a Bathroom in an Established San Marco Home
- Selecting tile patterns — hex, subway, basketweave — with a timeless look.
- Furniture-style vanities that bring character and storage.
- Updating plumbing and ventilation behind the walls while the room is open.
- Fitting a walk-in shower into rooms with fixed windows and doorways.
- Choosing fixture finishes that coordinate across the room.
Classic Materials, Modern Performance
A bathroom can look classic while performing like new. Behind traditional tile we use modern waterproofing; inside a vintage-style vanity you can have drawers and outlets; above it all, a properly sized exhaust fan protects finishes from humidity.
Smaller footprints are common in established homes. Glass shower panels, wall-mounted faucets and recessed storage help a compact bath feel larger without changing its proportions.

San Marco Bathroom Remodeling FAQ
Can I keep my original bathroom tile?
Sometimes. If it's in good condition and not in the shower, it can be preserved and the rest of the room updated around it.
How can I make a small bathroom feel larger?
Use light colors, larger floor tile, a floating or leggy vanity, glass instead of a curtain and good lighting.
Do older bathrooms need extra work behind the walls?
Older plumbing, venting or framing may need updating when the walls are open. We'll review conditions before tile goes up.
