Bathroom Remodeling in Potomac
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.

Tell us the two things we need to call you back — a project manager rings you to book the free walkthrough. We work Bethesda, North Potomac, Rockville and every Potomac ZIP: 20854.
- A written, line-item scope for your Potomac project before anyone swings a hammer
- Permits pulled through the Montgomery County Department of Permitting Services under MHIC #111971
- One project manager from demolition to final walkthrough
Two fields and one question. A specialist calls you back to confirm a time.
The paperwork is the part most contractors gloss over.
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 Potomac 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.
A lot of Potomac sits outside Montgomery County's public water and sewer envelope, which means well and septic. That matters more than homeowners expect: adding a bedroom — in an addition or a finished basement — can require a septic capacity review before the county will permit it, because bedroom count is how septic systems are sized. On a large-lot Potomac property this is the first thing to check, not the last.
The house decides half the scope.
Potomac is large-lot housing — much of it 1960s–1980s with substantial later renovation, plus newer custom construction. Many neighborhoods also carry HOA covenants requiring architectural approval for exterior changes, which runs on a separate track from the county permit.
What's included- ✓Waterproofing installed and inspected behind the tile, not patched after
- ✓Exhaust ventilation ducted to the exterior
- ✓GFCI protection and code-compliant lighting in wet zones
- ✓Rough-in inspection passed before tile goes up
A planning range, not a quote. Your written line-item price comes after a free on-site walkthrough. HVAC, electrical and plumbing are performed by licensed trade partners.
Financing is available — most homeowners spread a project this size over monthly payments rather than paying cash up front.

Why do bathroom quotes vary so much?
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.
