About
A Barrie bathroom company that prices the wall, not the photograph
Barrie Bathrooms renovates bathrooms in Barrie, Innisfil, Bradford West Gwillimbury, Alliston, Angus, Orillia and Springwater. That is worth saying plainly, because a large share of what ranks for a bathroom renovation in these towns is a company based somewhere else running a town page, and the local knowledge on those pages extends as far as the page itself.
The thing those pages cannot say is what is behind your wall. Barrie grew in distinct waves and each wave was plumbed differently: cast iron and galvanized before 1960, copper through the 1960s and 1970s, Poly-B from 1978 to 1998, PEX since. Painswick and Holly are Poly-B. Allandale and the Orillia core are cast iron. Bradford is new enough that the plumbing is fine and the exhaust fan is the problem.
So Barrie Bathrooms quotes in two halves. The finish is firm. The wall is a named allowance, photographed at demolition and returned when it is not needed. That is the same risk every fixed-price quote in this market is carrying — the difference is that you can see ours.
How we work
Four things we will not compromise on
- 01
The allowance is visible, in dollars
A fixed price for a bathroom in a 1987 house has a risk premium inside it whether or not anybody says so. Barrie Bathrooms writes the number down separately, so you can compare quotes on the finish and get the allowance back when the demolition is uneventful.
- 02
Photographs before the number moves
No change order without a picture of what caused it, and no new work started until the revised figure is agreed in writing. The change order is where renovation relationships break, and it breaks because somebody is asked to pay for something they never saw.
- 03
The membrane gets named on the quote
A tiled shower is only as good as the waterproofing behind it, and that is the one part you can never inspect afterwards. Barrie Bathrooms names the system and the manufacturer on the quote so you can look up the detail yourself.
- 04
We say when it is not a renovation
An active leak is a plumber today. A basement that floods in the March thaw needs that solved before a bathroom is built over it. A wall that has to move may need an engineer. Those answers come within one business day, with the reason and, where we know one, the trade that does handle it.
Talk to a Barrie bathroom renovation contractor
Barrie Bathrooms needs two things to give you a useful number: the year the house was built and a photograph of the room as it stands. The year decides what is likely inside the wall, and the photograph decides the finish. That is usually enough for a written range before anybody visits.
