A bathroom is one of the most used rooms in your home, yet it is often the last to be updated. If you are still living with builder-grade tile, a worn fiberglass tub surround, or a vanity that lacks storage, a professional bathroom renovation can dramatically improve your daily routine and add measurable resale value. In Chicagoland's competitive real estate market, an updated master bath is consistently listed among the top three features buyers look for.
CrestLine Home Pro specializes in bathrooms of every size and scope. We handle compact powder room makeovers, hall-bath upgrades for busy families, and luxury master-suite transformations that include curbless showers, freestanding tubs, heated tile floors, and custom double vanities. Our design process begins with an in-home assessment where we discuss your aesthetic preferences, storage needs, and any accessibility requirements. We present material samples — porcelain or natural stone tile, quartz or solid-surface countertops, fixtures from Kohler, Delta, and Moen — so you can see and feel the finishes before committing.
Waterproofing is the foundation of a lasting bathroom. We use Schluter DITRA and Kerdi membrane systems on all shower installations to prevent moisture infiltration, and every wet-area is tested before tile goes on. Our licensed plumbers handle fixture rough-ins, drain relocations, and supply-line upgrades, while our tile setters deliver precision layouts with tight grout lines.
Whether you are converting a bathtub to a walk-in shower, adding a basement half-bath, or creating an aging-in-place bathroom with ADA-compliant features, we manage permits, inspections, and every trade from start to finish.







We evaluate your existing bathroom layout, plumbing locations, ventilation, and structural conditions. You share your vision and we discuss what is achievable within your budget.
We present tile, vanity, fixture, and countertop options with samples. You receive a fixed-price proposal with a day-by-day timeline and no hidden costs.
Existing surfaces are removed, plumbing is relocated or upgraded as needed, and waterproof membranes are installed in all wet areas before any tile work begins.
Floor and wall tile are set, the vanity and countertop are installed, and all plumbing fixtures, lighting, mirrors, and accessories are connected and tested.
We walk through the completed bathroom, verify every detail, and ensure plumbing, electrical, and ventilation meet code before handing over the finished space.

Material selection drives 40-60% of your project cost and 100% of long-term satisfaction. Below are the trade-offs we walk every client through during the design phase — with our honest recommendations based on Chicagoland project experience.
Our Recommendation
Schluter Kerdi for any CrestLine bathroom — proven, durable, and the standard for serious tile work. We never accept hot-mop or paper liner installations because hidden leaks are a 10-20 year ticking clock.
Our Recommendation
12x24 porcelain wall tile + 12x12 mosaic shower floor + 12x24 floor tile is the safest universal choice. Large-format 24x48 in primary suites where subfloor is sound. Natural marble in Tier-1 historic homes only — and the homeowner must accept patina.
The recurring errors we see on jobs we've been called in to fix. Worth checking against any contractor proposal:
Pro tips developed across hundreds of CrestLine projects — items most homeowners don't think to ask about:
Chicagoland bathroom projects encounter universal issues: cast iron drain stack corrosion in pre-1960 homes, rotted subfloor below tubs from generations of micro-leaks, vent stack code violations from prior amateur work, and Chicago city plumbing code copper-only requirement. We assess all of these during the on-site walkthrough and document anything we expect to find at demo. Across 145+ bathroom projects since 2023, 90% of pre-1980 homes have hidden plumbing issues that affect scope — but we identify them up front so there are no mid-project surprises.
Every CrestLine bathroom project includes a 1-year workmanship warranty plus manufacturer warranties registered on your behalf. Schluter waterproofing carries a 10-year limited warranty against tile substrate failure. Kohler, Moen, and Brizo fixtures carry lifetime warranties on most components. Toilets typically 1-year mechanical warranty, lifetime porcelain. Warranty callbacks responded to within 5 business days.
Bathroom work involves plumbing, electrical, structural, and tile — every CrestLine bathroom project is covered by our $2M general liability and workers' compensation policies. Subcontractor work (rare on bathroom projects) is covered by their own policies; we verify before allowing any subcontractor on site.
Our master bathroom went from cramped and dated to a spa-like retreat. Walk-in shower with frameless glass, heated floors, double vanity — everything we wanted. CrestLine's attention to detail on the tile work was incredible.
Had a hall bathroom gutted and redone. New tub, vanity, flooring, the works. They finished in about two weeks which was faster than I expected. Really professional crew.
Hired CrestLine for a powder room update — new pedestal sink, fresh tile, and updated fixtures. The space looks completely different. Minor scheduling hiccup at the start but otherwise a smooth experience.
Had our master bath completely gutted and redone — walk-in shower with rainfall head, heated floors, and double vanity. CrestLine handled everything including the permit. Their tile guy is a true artist. Feels like a spa now.
Converted our old tub/shower combo into a beautiful frameless glass walk-in shower. New porcelain tile, recessed niche, and linear drain. Clean, modern look. The team was courteous and professional every single day. Highly recommend for any bathroom project.
Guest bathroom remodel — new vanity, toilet, tile floor, and tub surround. CrestLine finished in five working days. The tile pattern they suggested really makes the small space feel bigger. Professional from the estimate through final walkthrough.
