Tofino
Bathroom Renovations And Tile
In Tofino.
Tofino sits at the end of Highway 4, on one of the wettest stretches of coast in the country, and a lot of its bathrooms work harder than most: vacation rentals and guest suites see a new set of guests every few days. A shower there has to shrug off heavy use and constant damp air, which puts the weight of the job on what is behind the tile.
What Changes The Work In Tofino
- Rental and guest-suite bathrooms get far more use than a family bathroom, so the waterproofing and the grout joints matter even more than usual.
- Damp sea air does not stop at the shower door. A properly sealed Schluter system behind the tile keeps moisture out of the walls whatever the weather outside.
- For a rental, timing is booking-dependent. Plan the work around the quiet season and say so up front.
- Heated floors are worth considering in a coastal bathroom that is rarely fully warm or dry.
Common Questions
Tofino Questions
Will you come out to Tofino for a bathroom?
Yes. Bennett & Sons work anywhere on Vancouver Island. Send photos of the bathroom and what you want changed, and David will confirm scheduling and travel.
Can the work fit around rental bookings?
Tell us your booking calendar when you get in touch. The schedule is agreed before work starts, so the room is not out of service longer than it needs to be.
Do you do the plumbing for a Tofino bathroom?
No. Plumbing and electrical work are not part of what Bennett & Sons Installations performs. The tile, the waterproofing and the floors are.
