Bathroom Renovation Richmond Hill, York Region

Designing for every age

Lower curbs or curbless showers, blocking in the walls for future grab bars, a hand-held shower, slip-resistant tile and good lighting all make a bathroom easier for grandparents and kids. We plan these in at the start, when they cost the least effort to include.

From Mill Pond to Oak Ridges

Heritage homes around the Mill Pond, large early-1990s houses in Bayview Hill and newer townhouses in Jefferson each bring their own constraints: joist direction, the drain stack location, or a small window that limits ventilation. We work with the house, not against it.

City requirements

The City of Richmond Hill says installing kitchen or bathroom cupboards doesn't need a building permit, but interior alterations such as moving walls do. We confirm with the City and file when it's required.

Questions from Richmond Hill homeowners

Can you make a bathroom safer for an elderly parent?

Yes. We can add a low or curbless shower, wall blocking for grab bars, a hand-held shower and slip-resistant flooring.

Do I need a permit for a Richmond Hill bathroom?

Not to replace cupboards or fixtures in place. Moving walls or plumbing generally needs one. We check with the City.
