Fast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across Clovis
Bathroom remodeling in Clovis typically runs $9,000 to $28,000 depending on the size of the room, the materials you choose, and whether we’re working around the post-tension slab conditions unique to this part of the Valley. As a General Contractor in Clovis, we know these local conditions well. Most full remodels here take two to four weeks once permits clear the City of Clovis building department, though a One Day Bath Remodel can be finished far faster when the layout stays put. We’re the local team that puts a written price and a 365-Day Done Right Promise in your hands before demo day so the number you sign is the number you pay. Call (936) 259-2607 for a free estimate from Trevor Nash and the Penhallow Remodeling crew, and we’ll walk the job with you before a single tile comes up.
Why Penhallow Remodeling Is Clovis’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
Clovis homeowners don’t have time for contractors who ghost after the first walkthrough. We built our reputation in neighborhoods like Loma Vista, the Copper River area, and the Shepherd and Herndon corridors by showing up at the start of the window we gave, with a background-checked, uniformed crew, and by putting the Kingswell standard in writing: a real price before work starts, an arrival window we honor, and a written guarantee on every project. The 365-Day Done Right Promise is the backstop. If the waterproofing fails, if the tile cracks, if the shower pan leaks inside that year, we come back and fix it at no charge. No service call fee, no second-visit charge, no argument about whose fault it is.
Trevor Nash leads every Clovis estimate personally, and he’s walked enough post-tension slabs in this city to know where the trouble hides: in the grout lines, at the shower pan, under a vanity that was never shimmed to the actual slope of the floor. That’s local knowledge you can’t get from an out-of-town crew that assumes Fresno County rules apply to Clovis. They don’t. The City of Clovis runs its own building department with its own grading and drainage standards tied to the Dry Creek and Fancher Creek watershed flood-control master plan, and a plan-check layer that catches crews who skip it. We don’t skip it. We pull the permit, schedule the inspection, and pass it the first time. You also get a live person on the phone 24/7, not a voicemail maze, and materials from trade brands like Cambria, Kohler, and KraftMaid so the products behind our guarantee are as solid as the promise itself.
One Day Bath Remodel in Clovis
One Day Bath Remodel in Clovis is a fast, low-demo option for homeowners in tight 1990s – 2010s tract bathrooms who want a fresh, functional space without living in construction dust for a month. We keep the plumbing rough-ins where they are, replace the tub or shower base with a new walk-in unit, swap the vanity and fixtures, and finish with trim and grout in a single long day. It’s the right call when the bones are sound but the surfaces are tired, and the budget is tighter than a full gut. A One Day Bath Remodel in Clovis typically falls between $9,000 and $18,000 depending on fixture grade and whether we’re adding a frameless glass enclosure.
When a Clovis homeowner needs it
You’ve got a single hall bath serving three bedrooms and the grout has gone from white to something that looks like hard water and regret. Or the tub has become a tripping hazard and the tile’s flat enough that no amount of bleaching is bringing the seams back. This is the remodel that gets you a clean, usable, moisture-tight bath without moving a wall.
What we check on a slab first
Even on a one-day job, we run a calcium chloride moisture test on the post-tension slab before the new base goes in. Clovis’s expansive clay moves seasonally, and if the old pan was set directly on the concrete floor, we’re going to see moisture readings that explain why the grout failed. We won’t put new tile over a wet slab. We’ll add a crack-isolation mat and a bonded waterproofing membrane, and the new finish will stay put.
Bathroom Remodeling Contractor in Clovis
A Bathroom Remodeling Contractor in Clovis has a different job than one in a coastal city, because nearly every northeast Clovis tract home sits on a post-tension monolithic slab over expansive San Joaquin Valley clay. That single fact drives the materials we specify: a slab moisture test before any tile, a decoupling or crack-isolation membrane between the slab and the finished floor, and waterproofing details that hold up through drought-then-wet cycles that crack grout and debond cheap pans within a few seasons. A full Bathroom Remodeling in Clovis project runs $14,000 to $28,000 when we’re moving fixtures, replacing the waterproofing system, and upgrading the envelope to meet current Title 24 energy targets.
Small and mid-size remodels
A guest bath or half bath in a Copper River or Shepherd corridor tract usually lands between $9,000 and $15,000. That covers a new shower pan or tub, tile, vanity, and fixtures, plus the membrane work that keeps the floor from cracking when the clay swells after a wet winter. We use Wellborn and KraftMaid cabinetry, and Cambria or Silestone on the vanity deck, so the finish carries real manufacturer warranties alongside our 365-Day Done Right Promise.
Full gut and layout changes
When you’re moving the shower to the other wall or bumping a wall to give the primary bath more room, the range climbs to $20,000 to $28,000 because we’re reworking supply lines, drain runs, and ventilation, and pulling permits through the City of Clovis building department. We also check the stucco-over-wood-frame walls for under-insulation left over from the original build. At 110°F in July or in Tule-fog cold that seeps through a 2004-era wall, a remodel that doesn’t fix the envelope leaves the room uncomfortable no matter how nice the tile looks.
Trusted Brands We Service in Clovis
We stock and install parts for the brands Clovis homeowners actually have in their bathrooms: Kohler and Moen fixtures, KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinetry, Cambria, Silestone, and Caesarstone tops, and Blanco sinks. We keep the common cartridge replacements, trim kits, and mounting hardware on the truck, so a mid-remodel switch from a discontinued Moen rough-in to a current Kohler valve doesn’t add a week to the schedule or a surprise to the invoice. When a Clovis customer asks about Dvele or Mighty Buildings panelized systems for a larger home addition, we can talk through how those prefab options might integrate with a bath remodel, but for the bathroom itself, the trade brands we named are the ones we specify and stand behind with the 365-Day Done Right Promise.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Clovis Homes
- Cracked grout and debonded tile from slab movement. When the original builder tiled the shower pan directly over the post-tension slab, the expansive clay under Loma Vista and Copper River homes shifts through drought and wet years, and the grout lines crack within a few seasons. The fix is a crack-isolation membrane, not more grout.
- Shower pans that were never waterproofed properly. In tract homes built between 1988 and 2015, the pan was often a fiberglass insert with silicone at the seams, and once that silicone fails, water gets under the base and sits against the slab. We strip it to the rough-in, install a bonded waterproofing membrane, and the leak stops for good.
- Under-insulated exterior walls behind the shower. A 1990s – 2010s stucco-over-wood-frame tract wall rarely meets current Title 24 targets, so a primary bath on an outer wall is freezing during Tule-fog mornings and heat-soaked in July. If we’re opening the wall anyway, we add insulation and seal the envelope before the new tile goes on.
- Permit and plan-check surprises from the City of Clovis. Out-of-town crews assume Fresno County rules apply and skip the Clovis building department’s separate grading and drainage plan-check layer, which forces a mid-job stop and a change order. We handle the Clovis permit process up front so the inspection signs off the first time.
Pricing for Bathroom Remodeling in Clovis, CA
Here’s the honest picture on cost, because a vague “it depends” doesn’t help you plan.

FAQs About Bathroom Remodeling in Clovis
Because coastal homes sit on different soil and different slabs, and Clovis’s expansive San Joaquin Valley clay forces a step most coastal crews can skip: a slab moisture test and a crack-isolation or decoupling membrane under every tile and shower pan. That membrane work adds $1,000 to $2,500 to a typical Clovis bathroom remodel, plus the cost of upgrading under-insulated tract walls to meet Title 24. Skip it and the grout cracks within a few seasons, then the cheap spec costs more than the honest one. Call (936) 259-2607 for an exact quote, free.
Yes, if you’re moving plumbing, altering the shower pan, or touching the waterproofing, the City of Clovis building department requires a permit and a plan-check through its own office, which is separate from Fresno County. We pull the permit, schedule the inspection, and pass it the first time. No permit means no inspection, and no inspection means your insurance company has a reason to deny a future claim.
The post-tension slab under your Clovis home sits on expansive clay that shrinks in drought and swells in wet years, and that movement travels up through the concrete into whatever’s tiled on top. If the original builder set tile or a shower pan directly on the slab without a membrane, grout cracks and waterproofing debonds fast. Our fix is a crack-isolation mat and a bonded waterproofing membrane, and it goes into the written scope of work from the first estimate, so there’s no change order later.
Tule fog doesn’t touch the inside of your bathroom, but it does shut down the exterior work that sometimes attaches to a remodel: vent stacks through the roof, insulation access, or a window swap, and it can delay the concrete work if we’re patching the slab around a drain. On interior-only remodels, winter scheduling stays steady. We give you a real arrival window in writing, not a hand-wave, and the schedule reflects the weather we actually get between December and February in Clovis.
Usually you can, and we’re glad to work around it, because those cabinets are well-built and often still in fine shape even when the shower around them has failed. We’ll spec the new shower, check the vanity’s condition, and set it back on shims matched to the slab’s actual slope. If the vanity has water damage or the cabinet boxes are swollen from a failed pan, we’ll tell you straight and give you a swap price before any work starts.
If you’re ready to stop guessing about your bathroom remodel in Clovis, call (936) 259-2607. Trevor Nash will walk the job with you, put the price and the 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing, and you’ll know exactly which membrane, which waterproofing system, and which tile spec goes into the work before demo day. The estimate is free.
