Census estimates put the median Churubusco home at 1978, with about 35 percent built before 1960 and about 33 percent in 1990 or later. Bathrooms from these decades often have original tile and fixtures over subfloors that have seen years of water, so we check what is underneath first.

WATER MANAGEMENT
Waterproofing is the finish you don't see
The tile is only as good as what is behind it. We check the subfloor and wall framing, choose a complete shower waterproofing system, slope the floor correctly and make sure the fan actually vents outside.
- Check the subfloor and framing around the tub, shower and toilet.
- Use one complete waterproofing system for the shower, start to finish.
- Plan the fan, its duct route and its controls with the rest of the room.
- Fit storage without crowding the door swing or walkway.
