A bathroom remodel is the project San Diego homeowners put off the longest and enjoy the most: a shower you can walk into, a vanity with storage that works, light where you need it, and tile that will still be dry behind the wall in twenty years.

Kaminskiy designs and builds bathroom remodels across San Diego County, from hall baths to master bathroom suites, on one fixed-price contract,. A freestanding tub under the window, a walk-in shower with a bench and a niche, a double vanity with drawers instead of doors, a linen tower where a blank wall stood, ventilation that actually clears the steam. Our designers, architectural drafters and project managers take your bathroom from the first sketch to the final walkthrough on one contract, with one fixed price before anything is demolished. Founded in San Diego by Sergei Kaminskiy, and still founder-led.

Scripps Ranch's eucalyptus-lined streets hold 1980s and 1990s family homes that are now getting their second kitchen, a primary suite, or a room added for the next generation. Permits for bathroom remodels in Scripps Ranch are issued by the City of San Diego. Our design and architectural team drafts the construction documents, a licensed structural engineer stamps them where the scope calls for it, and we submit them and manage the whole process for you.

Bathrooms in Scripps Ranch

Scripps Ranch bathrooms: big 1980s rooms, finally used well.

The 1980s Scripps Ranch primary bath is large and poorly laid out: a corner tub, a small shower, a long double vanity and a toilet in a closet. The remodel keeps the room, trades the tub for a walk-in shower, adds the storage it never had and makes the space feel its size. Hall baths get a layout two children can share.

The corner tub comes out and a walk-in shower goes in, often curbless, with a bench and a niche. In a two-story the primary bath sits over the garage or the family room, so the drain relocation is planned in the floor framing rather than a slab, which gives more freedom with the layout.

A tower between the sinks, a recessed medicine cabinet and a linen cabinet where the tub deck was turn a bathroom that looked big into one that works.

A bathroom remodel inside the existing walls needs a building permit from the City of San Diego and nothing from your HOA; no coastal review applies this far inland. The permit covers the plumbing and electrical changes, and we pull it.

Couples redoing the primary bath they have lived with since the 1990s, families giving the kids' hall bath a layout two can share, and long-time Scripps Ranch owners planning a curbless shower for the decades ahead. The first meeting is at your home.

Finishes are chosen at our Design Center in Rancho Bernardo, about 10 minutes up Interstate 15; every project starts with a visit to your home, not to ours.

The Scripps Ranch bathroom remodeling guide

Bathroom remodeling in Scripps Ranch, in detail.

How a bathroom remodel goes in a Scripps Ranch house.

Shower in place of the tub, real storage, better light, and a layout that lets two people get ready at once.

A tub and shower that stays, a vanity with two sinks where the width allows, drawers instead of doors, a fan sized for the room.

Second-floor baths give freedom with the drain, and the ceiling below is protected during the work.

A City of San Diego building permit and three to five months from the first visit to completion. A kitchen in the same project shares the permit.

Nothing. The in-home design consultation is complimentary anywhere in Scripps Ranch. A designer comes to your home, listens to what you want to change, takes measurements and photos, and tells you honestly whether we are the right fit for the project.

We do. Permits for bathroom remodels in Scripps Ranch are issued by the City of San Diego. Our design and architectural team drafts the construction documents, a licensed structural engineer stamps them where the scope calls for it, and we submit them and manage the whole process for you.

Yes, and it is the most common Scripps Ranch bathroom project. Upstairs the drain moves within the floor framing, which gives more freedom than a slab, and the shower can be curbless.

Three to five months from the first visit to completion, with design and the City permit first.

Not for work inside the walls. Only exterior changes, such as a new window, go to the association's architectural committee.

It depends on the size of the room, how much of the layout changes, and the tile, vanity and fixtures you choose. In San Diego a small hall bath refresh starts around fifteen thousand dollars, most full bathroom remodels run from twenty to thirty thousand, and a large primary suite with a walk-in shower and a freestanding tub runs well past seventy-five thousand. Cabinetry and tile labor are the biggest lines. What we promise is a fixed price in writing before anything is demolished: at the design and bid presentation you see every line of the scope, the contract and the schedule together. The bathroom cost calculator on this page gives an honest range in about sixty seconds.

If the plumbing, the electrical or the structure changes, yes, and most real bathroom remodels touch at least one of those. Swapping a faucet, a toilet or a vanity in the same place, or new paint, generally does not need one. We draw the plans, submit them to the city or the county, and schedule the inspections, so the permits are never your problem.

It varies with the scope and the neighborhood. In the 2023 Pacific-region cost versus value data a midrange bathroom remodel recouped about 62 percent of its cost at resale, a universal design bathroom about 43 percent and an upscale bathroom about 33 percent. An updated bathroom is also one of the first rooms San Diego buyers look at. The bigger return is daily: a bathroom that works the way you start and end the day.

Cabinetry and tile, usually in that order. The vanity, its top and any linen tower are the largest material line, and tile is the most labor to install well: every wet area has to be waterproofed, flat and level before the first piece goes on. Moving the plumbing, a frameless glass shower and a freestanding tub are the next lines that move a budget. Our designers show you where a dollar changes the look and where it does not.

Not that bathroom. From demolition to the final cleanup the room is a job site, and the water to it is off for part of the work. Most families use a second bathroom; in a one-bathroom home we plan the schedule around it at the pre-construction meeting so the toilet and a shower are back as early as the work allows.
