Bathroom Renovation in Whistler, BC

Waterproofing, heat, and finishes that take alpine moisture. Typical range $40,000 to $100,000+.

Whistler bathrooms that do not leak and do not feel like a hotel

A bathroom renovation in Whistler is a waterproofing job that happens to have tile on it. Balmoral Construction rebuilds ensuites, family baths, and powder rooms as part of Whistler renovations, including the bathrooms in the 4,000 sq ft Fitzsimmons renovation.

The published range is $40,000 to $100,000+. Heated floors, steam, a soaker with a view, and a relocated drain are different jobs. We will tell you which one you have before millwork is ordered.

RMOW cares about plumbing and envelope. We file what the scope needs and sit the inspections. Tile that looks finished is not the same as a shower that will still be dry in year eight.

Scope

Bathroom work we take on in Whistler

Powder rooms, family baths, and primary ensuites.

Waterproofing

Pans, membranes, and details at every penetration. This is the part you never see and the part that fails first if it is cheap.

Heated floors

Electric or hydronic, planned with the rest of the mechanical, not as an extra on install day.

Showers and tubs

Steam, curbless, or a soaker with a view. Glass, tile, and drains sized for how the room is used.

Millwork

Vanities that take wet towels and ski-week guests. Storage that is actually used.

Lighting and heat lamps

Task light at the mirror, not a single can in the ceiling.

Envelope and fans

Exhaust that leaves the building. A bathroom fan that dumps into the attic is a Whistler problem waiting.

Alpine moisture

Bathrooms in a ski house take more water

Membranes first

Schluter-style pans, correct slopes, and detailing at the curb and the niche. We do not skip this to save a week.

Heat in the floor

Heated floors are standard in a Whistler ensuite for a reason. Wiring and manifolds get planned with the plumber, not added after tile is quoted.

Ventilation

A pretty shower with a weak fan will grow mildew. We size ventilation for a closed-up winter house, not a July open-window day.

One bath at a time

Most Whistler houses need at least one working bathroom. We sequence so you are not driving to the rec centre to shower.

Common Questions

Whistler bathroom renovation FAQ

Bathroom renovations in Whistler typically range from $40,000 to $100,000+. A powder room refresh sits below that. A primary ensuite with heated floors, a steam shower, and relocated plumbing sits at the top. We estimate after we see the existing stack and waterproofing. Contact us.
Most bathroom renovations take 6 to 8 weeks on site. Waterproofing and tile cannot be rushed in a wet alpine house. Add permit time if plumbing moves.
Moisture load is higher, freeze-thaw is real, and a failed shower pan in a ski house is a winter emergency. We treat membranes and pans as structure, not finish.
Often yes, if a second bathroom remains in service. Primary ensuite work is easier in the shoulder season. We sequence so the house still functions.
