Renovating family bathrooms and ensuites in Painswick
Are you planning to remodel an upstairs family bathroom, update a builder primary ensuite, or finish a basement washroom in Painswick? Stretching across south Barrie in L4N between Yonge Street, Huronia Road, Big Bay Point Road and Mapleview Drive East—close to the Barrie South GO station—Painswick includes both mature 1980s streets and larger 1990s to 2010s family subdivisions.
Whether your Painswick house has an original 5 x 8 ft hall bath with cracked ceramic tile or a four-piece primary ensuite with an unused corner tub deck, our Barrie crew provides clear published starting prices, scaled layout drawings before demolition, and a clean, protected job site.
Common bathroom renovation scopes in Painswick
1. Three-piece family hall bathrooms and tub-to-shower conversions
In Painswick’s two-storey homes and split-levels, the main hall bathroom works hard every morning. Our $8,000 labour package (7 x 9 ft) strips the old tub, bulkhead and tile down to the studs and rebuilds the room with a deep new alcove soaker tub and 3-way shower system (or a bathtub replacement), continuous membrane waterproofing, porcelain wall and floor tile, three pot lights, a quiet fan and a quartz-topped vanity. When your household prefers a walk-in shower over a tub, we convert that 60-inch alcove into a 10 mm frameless glass walk-in shower with a window or corner bench—just like our navy shaker vanity and walk-in glass shower case study.
2. Four-piece primary ensuite remodels ($11,500 labour / $30,000+ all-in)
In newer Painswick subdivisions toward Mapleview Drive and Dean Avenue, we remove bulky corner whirlpool decks and narrow stalls to build curbless or low-curb glass showers paired with 60- or 72-inch double vanities; see primary and ensuite renovations.
3. Basement bathrooms and Additional Residential Units (ARUs)
South-end Barrie detached homes are a popular choice for finishing lower-level family suites or legal second suites (ARUs). We verify existing rough-in stubs or saw-cut the slab for new drains, prepare the City of Barrie APLI permit drawings, and build a warm, properly vented basement bathroom.

When a City of Barrie permit applies in Painswick
Replacing your tub, toilet and vanity in the exact same location without changing drain or vent piping does not require a municipal building permit. When a remodel shifts drains across the floor, upgrades a 1.5-inch tub trap to a relocated 2-inch shower drain, or adds a basement bathroom, a City of Barrie APLI permit is required.
