The Caliber Bathroom Experience

Your Private Sanctuary,
Perfected.

A Caliber bathroom isn't just tiled and grouted — it's engineered for comfort and built to last decades. We start with how the space needs to function: who uses it, how traffic flows, where natural light falls, and what makes you feel at ease.

From freestanding soaker tubs under crystal chandeliers to frameless glass walk-in showers with rainfall heads, every element is selected with intention. Our waterproofing systems, tile precision, and plumbing expertise ensure the beauty you see is backed by the quality you can't.

We serve homeowners across Kitchener, Waterloo, Cambridge, Galt, Conestogo, and Paris who want a bathroom that feels like a five-star hotel — in their own home.

Behind the Scenes

The Craftsmanship You Can't See

The most important part of a bathroom renovation is what's behind the tile. Proper waterproofing, precision levelling, and correct drain slopes are what separate a bathroom that lasts 5 years from one that lasts 25.

Frequently Asked Questions

Bathroom Renovation FAQs

How much does a bathroom renovation cost in Kitchener-Waterloo?+

Bathroom renovation costs in the Kitchener-Waterloo region typically range from $25,000 for a standard main bathroom refresh to $80,000 or more for a luxury ensuite with custom tile, heated floors, freestanding tub, and frameless glass shower. Caliber Contracting provides detailed, transparent quotes after an initial discovery consultation.

How long does a bathroom renovation take?+

A typical bathroom renovation takes 4 to 8 weeks from demolition to completion. A straightforward main bathroom update may take 3 to 5 weeks, while a full ensuite renovation with custom tile, heated floors, and layout changes can take 6 to 10 weeks.

Can you add a bathroom where one doesn't currently exist?+

Yes. We regularly add new bathrooms in basements, attics, additions, and converted spaces. Adding a new bathroom requires plumbing rough-in, drain connections, venting, and typically a building permit. We handle the full scope including permits, plumbing, electrical, waterproofing, tile, and finishing.

What waterproofing do you use in showers?+

We use industry-leading waterproofing systems including Schluter Kerdi membrane and Laticrete Hydro Ban for all shower and wet area installations. Proper waterproofing is critical to preventing moisture damage and mold growth behind tile. Every shower we build is fully waterproofed before any tile is installed.

Do you install heated bathroom floors?+

Yes, heated floors are one of our most popular bathroom upgrades. We install electric radiant floor heating systems under tile, controlled by a programmable thermostat. They add comfort, reduce moisture, and are energy-efficient to operate.
