Bathroom Remodeling in St. Peters, Missouri

St. Peters homes and this kind of project

A bathroom remodel in St. Peters means working in ranches, split-foyers and two-stories from the 1970s to 1990s, so on our first visit we look at the subfloor around the toilet and tub, where the fan exhausts and the age of the valve and piping.

The housing stock here: 1970s to 1990s ranches, split-foyers and two-stories, with brick fronts and siding on the other three sides.

Fiberglass tubs and tile over moisture-resistant drywall are what fail in boom-era baths.

What we find inside St. Peters homes

Split-foyer and older two-story plans have small, closed kitchens. Opening them to the living room is the most requested change and typically needs a beam. Bathrooms often have original cast iron tubs worth keeping and re-tiling around, or replacing with a shower.

One-piece fiberglass tubs, cultured marble vanity tops and corner whirlpools define bathrooms in St. Peters homes of this period. Tile was often set over moisture-resistant drywall, which has since failed. Everything wet gets rebuilt from the studs.

What is included

For St. Peters bathrooms our standard gut scope includes demolition, subfloor and framing repair, new shower valve and supply stops, updated drain connections, a ducted quiet fan, GFCI circuits, membrane waterproofing, tile, vanity and top, toilet, glass, paint and accessories.

We take on bathroom remodel work across St. Peters, from Old Town St. Peters to Ohmes Farm and the Mid Rivers area.

What we watch for

Second-floor baths in St. Peters two-stories were frequently vented into the attic with flex duct lying in the insulation. We run the duct to a roof or gable termination as part of every remodel.

St. Peters properties tend to be mature, tree-shaded lots, and that affects how we stage materials, where a plumber, an electrician, a tile setter and carpenters park and how debris leaves the site.

Permits and approvals in St. Peters

The City of St. Peters is where we file for a bathroom remodel in St. Peters, and the job will see plumbing and electrical inspections when lines or circuits change.

Being inside the house, this project is unlikely to need sign-off from older subdivision indentures that are still in force, but we confirm any rules on containers and work hours.

Schedule and getting to you

Plan on three to four weeks of site work for a bathroom remodel in St. Peters, once permits and materials are in hand.

St. Peters is a little over twenty minutes east on I-70 from our Wentzville base. We plan crew days and deliveries around that drive so you get full working days on site.

What moves the price in St. Peters

We price bathroom remodeling in St. Peters from a site visit, not a square-foot figure. These are the items that change the number.

• Tile quantity and complexity. Large format, mosaics and patterns all add labor.
• Condition of what is under the old floor and behind the old walls.
