Bathroom Renovation in Holly, Barrie

Upgrading 1990s and 2000s builder bathrooms in Holly

Are you ready to replace the original builder-grade primary ensuite or upstairs hall bathroom in your Holly home? Across southwest Barrie in L4N—around Mapleton Avenue, Marsellus Drive, Essa Road, Coughlin Road and Veterans Drive, as well as neighbouring Ardagh Bluffs—most detached houses and townhomes were built between the mid-1990s and late 2000s. After twenty to twenty-five years of daily family use, the original builder shower stalls, bulky corner soaker tub decks and cultured-marble vanities are worn out and ready for a proper rebuild.

Operating from our Barrie office at 65 Cedar Pointe Dr Ste 246, our crew works in Holly and Ardagh every month, providing published starting prices, scaled layout drawings before demolition, and continuous membrane waterproofing behind every shower tile.

Most requested bathroom scopes in Holly & Ardagh Bluffs

1. Reworking the builder corner-tub primary ensuite ($11,500 labour)

Almost every four-piece primary bedroom suite in Holly was framed with a wide tiled corner tub platform beside a cramped 36-inch shower stall. Tearing out both the unused corner deck and the narrow stall opens up a full wall for a custom walk-in shower with 10 mm frameless glass, a built-in bench, recessed shampoo niches and a 60- or 72-inch double-sink vanity—like our black-veined stone and brass double-vanity ensuite case study.

2. Upstairs kids’ and guest 3-piece hall bathrooms ($8,000 labour)

The shared upstairs bathroom in a Holly family house sees heavy daily traffic. Our $8,000 labour package (7 x 9 ft) strips out the old tub, bulkhead and ceramic tile and rebuilds the room with a deep new alcove tub and 3-way shower system (or a tub-to-shower conversion), full porcelain walls and floor, three wet-rated pot lights, a quiet fan and a quartz-topped vanity.

3. Main-floor powder rooms and basement rough-in completions

We also refresh main-floor two-piece guest baths with floating vanities and feature walls (see powder room renovations) and finish three-piece basement bathrooms over builder rough-in stubs.

City of Barrie APLI permits for Holly homes

Under City of Barrie Building Services rules, swapping your tub, shower, toilet and vanity in their exact current locations does not require a municipal building permit. When a Holly remodel relocates the toilet or shower drain across the subfloor—or finishes a basement bathroom—the City of Barrie requires an online APLI permit application (eservices.barrie.ca/apli) and rough-in plumbing inspection.
