Warwick gotchas

Common cost adders in older Warwick homes

We flag these in the estimate, not mid-project. The fix is almost always cheaper while the wall is already open.

1.5" tub drains in older homes

Pre-1970 Warwick capes often have 1.5" drains that don't pass current RI code. Upsize to 2" while the wall is open.

Galvanized supply lines

If we open the wall and find galvanized, the right call is to re-pipe to PEX during the remodel — not after. Modest scope add now avoids a full tear-out in 3 years.

Cast-iron drain stacks

Aging cast-iron drain stacks accessible during demo should be replaced — pitting and joint failure is the #1 cause of bathroom leaks 5-10 years post-remodel.

Undersized electrical

1950s-60s Warwick bathrooms often have a single 15-amp circuit. Modern code wants a dedicated 20-amp GFCI for the vanity area. Upgrade while the wall is open.

Bathroom remodel FAQ — Warwick

How much does a Warwick bathroom remodel cost?+

Every remodel is quoted on-site in writing after a free in-home consultation — we don't quote bathroom remodels by phone or web because the variables (existing rough-in, fixture allowances, permits, code work in older homes) are too project-specific. Mid-range hall baths and full master gut jobs are very different scopes; we'll walk you through both at the consultation.

Can you handle the whole project or just the plumbing?+

End-to-end: design, permits with the Warwick building department, demo, plumbing rough-in, electrical, tile, fixtures, final inspection, walkthrough. Single Warwick-licensed crew, single point of contact, single warranty.

What gets added to the cost in older Warwick homes?+

Mid-century capes and ranches frequently need: 1.5" tub drain upsized to 2" for current code, galvanized supply lines repiped to PEX while the wall is open, cast-iron drain stack replaced when accessible, undersized electrical updated for vanity GFCI.
