The parts that matter most in a bathroom are the ones you cannot see afterward. We are a licensed contractor in Maryland (MHIC #111971) — we pull the permits through the Montgomery County Department of Permitting Services, coordinate the licensed trades, and hand you a written line-item scope before demolition starts.
Bathrooms almost always need plumbing and electrical permits, plus a building permit if the layout moves. Two requirements catch homeowners out: GFCI protection, and exhaust ventilation that actually terminates outside the building rather than into a joist bay or an attic. Both get checked at inspection.
Your Olney permit goes through the Montgomery County Department of Permitting Services. We pull it under our license and we hold the inspection schedule — you do not chase inspectors and you do not sign the application.
Olney sits at the edge of Montgomery County's water and sewer envelope, and properties beyond it are on well and septic. If your project adds a bedroom — a basement bedroom or an addition — septic capacity can govern whether it is permittable at all, since systems are sized by bedroom count. Parcels bordering the county's Agricultural Reserve also carry their own zoning constraints on what can be built.
Olney is mostly later-20th-century subdivision housing on generous lots, and most of those neighborhoods have an HOA with architectural review for exterior work.

Most Olney projects land in the $12k – $45k range. That is a planning range for Montgomery County, not a quote — your written price comes after a free on-site walkthrough.
Yes. The walkthrough and the written scope are free and yours to keep whether or not you hire us. There is no design fee and no consultation invoice.
Because half the work is invisible. A quote that assumes your existing subfloor, supply lines and venting are all reusable will always look cheaper than one that budgets for what is actually behind the wall. We open up, look, and put the real scope in writing before you commit.
