Rough-ins need to align with fixtures. Substrates need to be prepared before waterproofing. Waterproofing must be complete before tile. Vanities, glass, lighting and plumbing fixtures all depend on earlier decisions.
QUAY approaches every bathroom renovation in Burnaby as a complete construction assembly rather than simply replacing visible finishes.
Proper substrate preparation and waterproofing are fundamental before the finished tile is installed.
Shower valves, drains, sinks, tubs and toilets need to align with the finished layout.
