Bathroom Remodeling in Cleveland, OH

Modern, durable bathrooms for Cleveland’s older homes, doubles, and city apartments.

In much of Cleveland, bathrooms were built small and simple—often with original tile, cast iron tubs, and plumbing that’s been patched over the years. Tight hall baths, worn finishes, and poor ventilation can make daily routines harder than they need to be.

Moffie Build Group remodels bathrooms across Cleveland with a focus on function, durability, and working correctly in older structures. We update primary baths, hall baths, and lower-level baths so they’re easier to use, easier to clean, and better suited to how people actually live in the city today.

Design Notes for Cleveland Bathrooms

  • Respecting Older Buildings and Systems
    Cleveland bathrooms often sit within old framing, plaster, masonry, and aging plumbing. We design around the structure and systems you actually have—not just idealized layouts.
  • Maximizing Very Small Footprints
    Many city baths are compact. We use right-sized fixtures, smart storage, and careful tile and lighting choices to make them feel larger and more comfortable.
  • Durable, Easy-to-Clean Surfaces
    We prioritize materials that are straightforward to maintain and can handle heavy use, moisture, and city living—important for both owner-occupied and future-rental scenarios.
  • Lighting, Ventilation & Moisture Control
    We plan for quiet, effective fans and layered lighting, especially in bathrooms with no windows or limited natural light.
  • Planning Notes for Cleveland Bathrooms

    Owner-Occupied vs. Future Rental
    We ask how you plan to use the property in the next 5–10 years. That shapes decisions on finishes, layouts, and how far to go with upgrades behind the walls.

    What Needs to Be Opened vs. Left Alone
    We’ll show where it’s worth opening walls to improve plumbing or layout, and where a more targeted approach makes more sense for your budget and building.

    Drainage, Slope & Basement Conditions
    Lower-level baths in Cleveland can have unique challenges—floor drains, existing sump systems, or past water issues. We plan around those conditions from the start.

    Coordinating Multiple Baths in One House or Double
    If we’re remodeling more than one bathroom at a time, we’ll sequence the work to keep a functional bath available and maintain basic routines.

    Code, Safety & Long-Term Reliability
    We focus on doing the unseen work correctly—venting, plumbing sizing, electrical—so your new bath feels solid and works properly long term.

    Cleveland Bathroom Remodeling FAQs

    Can you remodel bathrooms in very old or previously “DIY remodeled” Cleveland homes?

    Yes. We regularly run into unconventional plumbing, odd framing, and old materials. We plan for more discovery and are transparent about what we find.

    Do we have to replace all the plumbing?

    Not always, but many older city baths benefit from updated supply and drain lines in the remodeled area. We’ll evaluate and make recommendations based on what we see.

    Is it possible to add a bathroom in a Cleveland basement or lower level?

    Often yes, but it depends on existing drains, slope, and head height. We’ll assess conditions and explain what’s involved before you commit.

    Can we stay in the home during a bathroom remodel?

    Most Cleveland homeowners do. We help you plan sequencing, especially when you have only one full bath.

    How long does a typical bathroom remodel take in Cleveland?

    Most hall and lower-level baths take around 3–5 weeks. Primary baths can take 4–7 weeks, depending on tile complexity and how much plumbing and electrical needs updating.

    Can you help pick finishes that work for possible future renters?

    Yes. We’re used to selecting finishes that feel good for owners but are smart and durable enough if the property ever transitions to a rental.
