Permits and inspections
We review the scope with the local building department, identify required building, plumbing, electrical and mechanical permits, and schedule applicable inspections.
AI BUILDERS / BATHROOMS
Comfort that fits every day.
Bathroom remodeling with careful waterproofing, accessible layouts, walk-in showers and lasting finishes.
BATHROOM REMODELING
Plan for comfort and access.
We review fixture placement, waterproofing, ventilation, lighting and the existing structure before building a clear scope and schedule.
ACCESSIBLE BATHROOMS
Design for easier movement and use.
We can plan a curbless or low-threshold shower, grab bar backing, door clearance and reachable fixtures. We discuss ADA accessibility goals while confirming any standards that apply to the property.
PERMITS & PROJECT REVIEW
Plan the bathroom remodel through approval.
Energy, access and safety
For California work, we review applicable Title 24 energy requirements; in Nevada, the locally adopted codes apply. We discuss accessible design and ADA goals with you, then verify any legally applicable standards for the specific property.
Local and property review
In the Tahoe Basin, TRPA review may apply. We check relevant fire and stormwater or drainage requirements, plus HOA rules and architectural board approvals when applicable, before construction begins.
