Kol & Co. is a licensed, insured, and bonded design-build contractor with 15+ years of experience. That means we’re looking at more than the finishes.

For the complete bathroom remodels we typically take on, homeowners should generally plan for approximately $25,000–$40,000+.
The final investment depends on the bathroom size, existing conditions, layout changes, plumbing relocation, shower or tub design, cabinetry, tile, fixtures, lighting, materials, and overall level of finish.
We prefer to see the existing bathroom and understand the scope before developing a project-specific estimate.
Every project is different, but a complete bathroom remodel can involve much more than replacing tile and fixtures. Depending on your San Juan Capistrano home and the scope of work, we can coordinate the following:
Whether you're rebuilding an existing shower, converting a tub to a shower, or creating a larger walk-in shower, we coordinate the complete wet-area construction.
May include:
We pay particular attention to drainage and waterproofing behind the finished tile, not just the surfaces you see.
Learn MoreWe can replace or redesign the vanity area to improve storage, counter space, and how the bathroom functions day to day.
May include:
For primary bathrooms, we can also evaluate whether the existing vanity configuration is making good use of the available space.

A complete bathroom remodel often requires work behind the walls, especially when fixtures or the layout are changing.
Depending on the project, we can coordinate:
San Juan Capistrano's current bathroom-remodel requirements specifically address plumbing, electrical and mechanical ventilation, so these items should be considered during planning—not after finishes have been selected.
Learn MoreOnce the layout and behind-the-walls work are established, we coordinate the finishes that bring the bathroom together.
May include:
For larger renovations or multiple bathrooms, we can also coordinate materials and finishes so the bathrooms feel consistent with the rest of the home.
Learn MoreFor the bathroom remodeling projects we typically take on, construction generally takes approximately 3–5 weeks after applicable permits and pre-construction planning are complete.
More extensive projects involving layout changes, significant plumbing relocation, structural work, custom materials, or expansion into adjoining space can take longer.
It depends on the scope of work.
The City identifies painting, tiling, cabinets, countertops, and similar finish work as potentially exempt from a building permit when the work doesn’t also involve electrical, mechanical, plumbing, or wall, floor, or ceiling modifications.
More extensive bathroom remodeling may require permits for work involving:
Plumbing modifications
Electrical changes
Mechanical ventilation
Wall modifications
Floor or ceiling changes
Other regulated construction
San Juan Capistrano also publishes a dedicated Residential Bathroom Remodel guide covering existing and proposed floor plans and applicable electrical, plumbing, mechanical, and construction requirements.
We visit your San Juan Capistrano home, review the existing bathroom, discuss what you want to change, and identify potential layout, plumbing, electrical, ventilation, and construction considerations.
We develop the bathroom around your priorities, including the layout, shower or tub, vanity, storage, tile, fixtures, lighting, materials, and finishes.
When permits or additional documentation are required, we coordinate the applicable plans and City review before construction begins.
We coordinate the applicable demolition, plumbing, electrical, framing, waterproofing, tile, cabinetry, countertops, fixtures, glass, lighting, painting, and inspections.
We complete the final installations and details, walk through the remodeled bathroom with you, and address remaining punch-list items before completion.
