Bathroom remodeling in Holly Springs & the Triangle
Leaking shower? Dated tile? No storage and bad lighting? You’re not alone. Most homeowners who contact us want a bigger walk-in shower, a vanity that actually holds everything, brighter lighting and ventilation, and a layout that makes a small space work. As your local bathroom remodeler, we turn tired rooms into clean, durable, spa-like baths that hold up to daily use.
We remodel master bathrooms, guest bathrooms, hallway bathrooms, and even basement bathrooms across Holly Springs, Cary, Apex, Raleigh, and nearby Triangle communities. With 26+ years in the trade, we’re licensed and insured in North Carolina, A+ BBB rated, and members of the NKBA and the Home Builders Association of Raleigh & Wake County.
What we fix most (based on real requests we receive)
-
- Tub-to-shower conversions: remove the tub and build a larger, low-maintenance tile shower with a glass shower enclosure.
- Storage that works: right-sized vanities, drawers, medicine cabinets, and niches.
- Leaks, mold, and waterproofing: fix failed pans and grout, then rebuild the right way.
- Lighting & ventilation: layered lighting (recessed, vanity, accent) and quiet exhaust fans that actually clear steam.
- Small bath layouts: make tight hallway and guest baths feel bigger with smarter fixtures and clearances.
- Upgrades that feel great: heated tile flooring, frameless glass, better fixtures and hardware.

Our Bathroom Remodeling Process
We keep the process simple, transparent, and built around your home’s real issues—leaks, tight layouts, poor storage, and weak ventilation.
Listen & inspect: Tell us what’s not working. We check for leaks, failed shower pans, moisture, and ventilation problems. We note plumbing, electrical, and any code items in master, guest, hallway, or basement baths.
Measure & plan: We take detailed measurements and create accurate as-builts. Then we test layouts—bigger tile shower, tub-to-shower conversion, smarter vanity storage, better clearances, and lighting that actually helps.
Options & clear pricing: You’ll see good / better / best plans with line-item pricing, so you can choose where to invest. Our Bathroom Remodeling Price Guide sets expectations before we finalize numbers.
Selections that last: We help you pick vanities, tile, glass shower enclosures, heated tile flooring, fixtures, and a layered lighting plan. Durable, low-maintenance, and right for daily use.
Permits, schedule, and ordering: We handle permits and inspections. Long-lead items (glass, custom vanities, specialty tile) are ordered before we set the start date, so the build moves smoothly.
Build it right: Floors protected. Dust controlled. Demo first, then rough plumbing and electrical, waterproofing, inspections, drywall/paint, vanity set, countertop template, tile and glass install, lighting and trim. Clean site, respectful crew, steady updates.
Walkthrough & warranty: We finish with a thorough punch list and a care guide for new finishes. Our work is backed in writing, and we’re here if you need us later.
Most Triangle bathroom renovations land between $15k–$50k+. Timeline is typically 3–6 weeks once materials are in and permits are approved. If your bathroom is leaking, cramped, or just tired, tell us what isn’t working. We’ll map a plan that fits your budget, timeline, and style.

Frequently Asked Bathroom Remodeling Questions
This is just to provide you with a general idea on the cost to remodel a bathroom.
The cost of a bathroom remodel can vary greatly depending on many factors such as size of the bathroom, age of the bathroom, where the plumbing is located, electrical, materials, labor, and scope of the project. On average, a bathroom remodel can range from $15,000 to $50,000 or more. To get an accurate estimate, request your bathroom remodeling consultation and provide us with detailed information about your potential project.
The duration of a bathroom remodel depends on the scope of the project, material availability, and our current schedule. A small-scale remodel may take 2-3 weeks, while a complete overhaul can take 6-8 weeks or longer. We will be able to provide you a timeline specific to your project.
Depending on the scope of the work and local building codes, you may need permits for your bathroom remodel. At Branch Home Improvement we are very familiar with local regulations in Wake County and surrounding areas and will advise you on whether permits are necessary and we can also help obtain them if needed.
You can choose to keep your existing bathroom layout if it meets your needs and you are happy with it. However, if you want to maximize space or update the design, a new layout may be necessary. Branch Home Improvement can help you determine the best layout for your needs and preferences.
When selecting fixtures and hardware, consider the style, finish, functionality, and durability of the items. Branch Home Improvement can help you choose fixtures and hardware that match your design preferences and fit within your budget.
To maximize storage, consider incorporating built-in cabinets, open shelving, and creative storage solutions such as wall-mounted cabinets or recessed niches. At Branch Home Improvement we can help you design a layout that maximizes storage while maintaining a visually appealing and functional space.
Proper ventilation is crucial in a bathroom to prevent mold and mildew growth and that musty, old bathroom, smell. At Branch Home Improvement we can help you determine the best ventilation options, such as installing a new exhaust fan or upgrading your current one to meet current standards.
Consider a layered lighting approach that includes ambient, task, and accent lighting to create a well-lit and functional space. We can help you select the best lighting options and fixtures for your specific needs and design preferences.
Tile showers offer a custom design, a wide range of styles and colors, and better durability compared to pre-fabricated shower enclosures. While tile showers can be more expensive and time-consuming to install, they generally provide a higher-end look and increased long-term value.
Ceramic, porcelain, and glass tiles are popular options for shower surrounds. Ceramic and porcelain tiles are durable, water-resistant, and easy to maintain, while glass tiles offer a unique, modern look. We can help you to determine the best tile option for your specific needs and preferences.
Proper waterproofing is essential for preventing water damage and mold growth in a tile shower. We install a waterproof membrane behind the tile and use a high-quality grout and sealant to minimize water infiltration. Additionally, we ensure that the shower pan and drain are correctly installed to prevent any leaks.
A heated tile floor is a flooring system that uses electric or hydronic radiant heating elements installed beneath the tile to provide warmth. Heated tile floors offer increased comfort, especially during colder months, and can help reduce overall heating costs by providing targeted warmth in the bathroom.
The cost of installing a heated tile floor depends on factors such as the size of the area, the type of heating system (electric or hydronic), and labor costs. On average, heated tile floor installation can range from $10 to $25 per square foot, not including the cost of the tile itself.
