Duncan
Bathroom Renovations
In Duncan.
Cowichan Valley winters are mild but long and grey, and a bathroom in an older Duncan house is often the coldest room in it. A renovation is the one chance to change that: a heated floor under new tile, and a shower rebuilt so it stays dry behind the walls.
What Changes The Work In Duncan
- A heated floor goes under the tile, so the time to decide is before the bathroom is rebuilt.
- Older bathrooms often hide water damage behind the old tile. It shows up when the wall is opened, and it is fixed before anything new goes on.
- Bennett & Sons do the tile, waterproofing and floors. Plumbing and electrical are separate trades and are not included.
Common Questions
Duncan Questions
Is a heated floor worth it in a Duncan bathroom?
It is one of the few upgrades people notice every morning, and it can only go in when the floor is being redone. If you are considering it, decide before the work starts.
What if there is water damage behind the old shower?
It is found when the wall is opened and dealt with before the new shower is built. Photos of the current shower help David judge what to expect.
Who connects the heated floor thermostat?
An electrician. The membrane and cable go in with the tile, but connecting it to power is electrical work, which Bennett & Sons do not perform.
