Tahoe Donner Bathroom Remodel
Project Overview
The project began with the removal of the existing bathtub, flooring, and wall finishes to prepare the room for a full renovation. The bathtub was replaced with a new walk-in shower, reclaiming several additional inches of usable floor space within the compact layout.
A new waterproof shower assembly was installed using a modern shower system, along with vertically stacked ceramic wall tile and a hexagon mosaic shower floor. The shower enclosure was completed with a frameless bypass glass door to maximize accessibility while maintaining a clean, contemporary appearance.
The bathroom floor was finished with hexagon tile to complement the shower design and create visual continuity throughout the space. A new vanity, updated fixtures, and improved lighting were also installed to complete the remodel.
During construction, the shower drain was upgraded to a 2-inch line to meet current plumbing code requirements.
The completed renovation transformed the small bathroom into a modern, functional space that feels significantly larger and more refined, while working within the original footprint.
