Bathroom Remodeling
Full gut-and-rebuild bathrooms for Torrington's older homes, from failed plaster to finished room.
About half an hour northwest of our Bristol shop, Torrington is Litchfield County's biggest city and some of its best-built old housing, and we remodel it whole rooms at a time.
Torrington grew up on the Naugatuck River making needles, bearings, and brass, and the housing shows it: solid Victorians and early-1900s two-stories on the streets around downtown, mill-era homes along the river, and postwar capes and ranches out through Torringford and the East End. It is the kind of stock we like best, built well the first time and overdue for the rooms inside to catch up.
The age of the housing sets the work. Bathrooms still wearing decades of wallpaper get stripped, skimmed, and rebuilt. Plaster ceilings that have let go come down and are replaced with new sheetrock finished smooth. Floors get reset with luxury vinyl plank that stands up to real use, and fresh paint ties the whole room together.
A recent Torrington bathroom shows the shape of it: the failed plaster ceiling came down and new sheetrock went up, the wallpaper came off and the walls were skimmed flat, and the room came back together with a new vanity, new toilet, new exhaust fan with light, and new vinyl plank flooring, with the original clawfoot tub kept right where it belonged.
Kitchens here get the same treatment, replanned and rebuilt inside the original footprint, and basements in the postwar neighborhoods turn into finished living space without touching the lot line. On larger Torrington projects financing is available, and we will lay out the options before work begins.
Every Torrington project gets a free written estimate after a walkthrough, a response within one business day, and a licensed and insured Connecticut home improvement contractor (HIC# 0670854) on the job.

Tell us about the project and we will come take a look.
Yes. When plaster has sagged or come down, we remove it, address what is behind it, and hang new sheetrock taped and finished smooth. We recently rebuilt a Torrington bathroom ceiling exactly this way after the original plaster let go.
Yes, regularly. Older Torrington homes often carry decades of wallpaper, and painting over it never looks right. We strip it, skim the walls flat, and prime so the finish coats read like new plaster.
Yes. Where a project requires it, we file with the Torrington building department and manage the inspections as part of the job, so you are not chasing paperwork in the middle of a remodel.
Yes. We are based in Bristol, about half an hour away, and Torrington jobs are scheduled like any other town we serve: the crew arrives with the day planned and the materials on the truck.
Yes. Financing is available on larger Torrington projects, from $500 up to $200,000 with a soft credit pull that does not affect your score, and we will walk you through the options before any work begins.
