DC bathrooms come with DC problems: row house plumbing stacks from 1925, condo board rules, and permits that stall projects for months. Sonny’s Renovations is a veteran-owned design-build firm that remodels bathrooms across Washington, DC — from Capitol Hill row houses to Northwest condos — with one crew handling design, permits, and construction under a single contract.

What a bathroom remodel costs in DC
Washington, DC bathroom remodels typically run a step above suburban pricing because of access, parking, and permit logistics: tub-to-shower conversions and focused refreshes commonly land around $15,000–$25,000, and full gut remodels of a standard DC bath around $30,000–$60,000, with primary suites above that. You’ll see a transparent line-item budget — with financing options — before demo day.
Permits and old-house surprises, handled
Moving plumbing or electrical in DC requires DOB permits and inspections, and older row houses often reveal galvanized supply lines or undersized drains mid-project. We prepare the drawings, pull the permits, and price the likely surprises up front, so the project doesn’t stall when the wall opens. One team, one contract, five steps: Discover, Design, Budget, Permit, Build.
DC bathroom FAQs
How long does a DC bathroom remodel take?
Tub-to-shower conversions run 1–2 weeks; full gut remodels typically 3–6 weeks of construction once permits and materials are in hand. Condo buildings with work-hour restrictions run longer — we schedule around your building’s rules.
Do you work with condo associations?
Yes. We prepare the board package — scope, drawings, insurance certificates, and contractor credentials — and coordinate elevator reservations and quiet hours with your management company.
Can you fit a real walk-in shower in a small row house bath?
Usually yes — DC row house baths are narrow, but a well-designed 32–36" walk-in with a glass panel almost always fits where a tub was. We’ll show you the layout options in the Design step before you commit.
