Federal Way bathroom remodeling — premium look without the premium price. Smart material choices, durable finishes, and pricing that doesn't move from quote to handover.
Every bathroom we remodel in Federal Way is shaped by the age of the house around it. Most of the city was built out in the 1970s and 80s, so split-entries, ranches, and tri-levels are the norm — often with original hall baths and aging galvanized supply lines behind the walls. Twin Lakes and Mirror Lake homes sit on larger lots with untouched primary baths, while the 1990s–2000s builds near Redondo and West Campus usually just need a finish and fixture update.
From our base in Kent, your Federal Way bathroom is only a 15–20 minute drive down I-5 or Highway 99 — so a cracked tile order or a same-day inspection correction never leaves the job waiting on a Seattle crew. We keep that same responsiveness on our Auburn bathroom remodels, and it's common for Federal Way clients to bundle a bath with a Federal Way kitchen remodel or a wider whole-home remodel.
Talk to Us About Your ProjectWhat's Included
Bathrooms leave no room for error — water, ventilation, and tight clearances all have to work together, and one weak link shows up fast. Here's what a typical Federal Way bathroom project includes, with every estimate tailored to your home.
Floor tile, large-format wall tile, custom shower niches, slab walls, and proper substrate (Schluter, cement board) under everything.
Stock, semi-custom, and custom vanities. Wall-mounted, single-sink, and dual-vanity layouts with soft-close hardware.
Toilet, sink, shower valve, and tub installation. Relocating drains, replacing old galvanized supply lines, and rough-in for new fixtures.
Faucets, showerheads, body sprays, handheld wands, tub fillers, towel bars, and hardware — coordinated with your aesthetic.
Vanity sconces, recessed lighting, decorative pendants, and dimmer-friendly switching. Always to code, always GFCI-protected.
Schluter Kerdi, Wedi, or hot-mopped pans. Proper waterproofing under tile is the difference between a 5-year and 30-year bathroom.
Exhaust fans sized for the room, vented to the exterior (not the attic), with humidity-sensing controls when requested.
Frameless shower glass, custom hinged or sliding panels, and barn-door hardware. Measured and templated after the tile is set.
We pull City of Federal Way permits when plumbing or electrical work is involved, and we schedule the rough-in and final inspections.

Federal Way Permits & Considerations
The City of Federal Way requires a building permit any time a bathroom remodel involves plumbing relocation, electrical changes, or structural alterations. Swapping fixtures in place — same toilet spot, same vanity footprint — often needs no permit, but the moment you move a shower drain, add a circuit, or redraw the layout, one is required.
We handle every required permit through the Federal Way Permit Center, schedule the rough-in and final inspections, and file the documentation with your project records. That paperwork matters most at resale, when appraisers and inspectors flag any bathroom work that was never permitted.
Honest Pricing
Federal Way falls in the middle of the Puget Sound bathroom market. The ranges below reflect what we typically build — your figure moves with shower size, tile choice, vanity selection, and whether any plumbing has to relocate.
New vanity, toilet, fixtures, tile floor and lighting. Original layout, no plumbing relocation.
Custom shower with tile, new vanity and counters, full plumbing fixtures, ventilation, waterproofing, and lighting. Most common project here.
Layout changes, large walk-in shower, frameless glass, dual vanities, premium tile, heated floors, and designer fixtures.
These reflect typical Federal Way bathroom costs and leave out hidden issues — rot under old tile, galvanized supply lines that need swapping — which we always flag in writing the moment we find them rather than at final invoice.
