Fixture and drain survey
We check whether the floor is slab or raised and where the vent stack runs before proposing any relocation.

Bathroom Remodeling in Santa Clara
Hall baths and primary suites rebuilt behind the tile, from our San Jose headquarters.
Original hall bathrooms in Santa Clara's mid-century tracts tend to share a wall with a bedroom closet and a single small window. We plan the new room around those limits and handle the City review.

Bathroom remodeling / Santa Clara
A Santa Clara bathroom is usually about the wet wall.
In a typical single-story Santa Clara house, the tub, toilet and sink all drain into one wall, and the slab or crawlspace below decides how easily they can move. We find out which one you have before drawing a new shower location.
Older tile set in mortar beds is common in homes from the 1950s and 1960s. Removing it often reveals the real condition of the framing, so we allow for that inspection point in the plan.
Architectural services by our in-house licensed architect; design, architectural drawings and permits included.
Included in the scope
One contract, design through final inspection.
Shower and niche drawings
The architect dimensions the shower pan, curb or curbless entry, glass panels and niche heights on the plan.
Building Division application
We file the bathroom permit with the City and track it through plan check on the online portal.
Waterproofing and fan scope
A continuous membrane and a properly ducted exhaust fan are written into the contract, not left to the tile stage.
Build-out and final
Our team builds the room and schedules the rough and final inspections Santa Clara requires.
City of Santa Clara Building Division
Santa Clara review for a bathroom remodel.
When a bathroom remodel moves plumbing, adds circuits or alters framing, the City of Santa Clara's Building Division reviews the plans before work begins.
- Define the scope in writing. We separate like-for-like fixture swaps from relocations, because the City treats those scopes differently.
- Submit drawings online. Plans go in through the Permitting Online Portal, and corrections are answered in the same file.
- Open-wall inspections. Supply lines, drains, wiring and the shower membrane are inspected before tile and drywall cover them.

Before you begin
Santa Clara bathroom remodeling questions.
Every home is different. Let’s talk through the details of yours.
Can a Santa Clara slab-floor bathroom have its shower moved?
Often it can, but cutting the slab for a new drain adds work and inspection steps. We confirm the drain path before you commit to a new layout.
How is a Santa Clara bathroom permit submitted?
Through the City's Permitting Online Portal to the Building Division. We prepare the drawings, file the application and respond to comments.
Where is the R&B office that serves Santa Clara bathrooms?
Santa Clara bathrooms are run from our headquarters at 84 W Santa Clara St, Suite 700, San Jose, CA 95113. Please phone (650) 800-9661 to set an appointment.

Yes. Design and drawings by our in-house licensed architect, plus the permit, are part of each Santa Clara bathroom scope.
