Shower Remodeling
in Vancouver, WA

Two permit paths, a wet season that never lets a bathroom dry out, and a housing stock full of 1990s mortar-bed pans that are now at the end of their life. Serden Group rebuilds Vancouver showers from the studs out — sloped bed, bonded membrane, flood test, then tile — and pulls the permit through the right jurisdiction for your address. One licensed team, one project manager. Locally trusted since 2015.

A Vancouver shower built for
the wet season.

Nearly every shower we demolish in Clark County failed the same way: a PVC pan liner that was never bonded to the wall membrane, corners sealed with caulk instead of fabric, and an exhaust fan too small to dry the room between showers. Eight months of Pacific Northwest humidity finds all three. We fix the assembly, not the symptom — continuous waterproofing across pan, curb and walls, a flood test before tile, and a fan sized to the room and ducted all the way outside.

Your Vancouver, WA shower remodel, done right —
from demo to final inspection.

How It Works
1
Feasibility

We confirm whether your address is inside Vancouver city limits or unincorporated Clark County — the two have different applications and different review — then measure your lot against your zone’s setbacks, lot coverage and height limits. You get an honest go, a build-up-instead recommendation, or a no, plus a realistic budget range before you pay for design.

2
Design & Permit

Floor plans, elevations and stamped structural drawings, then submittal and plan-review management with the City of Vancouver or the Clark County Permit Center. We handle correction responses, the stormwater plan when a project crosses the impervious-area threshold, and the system development charges tied to added square footage.

Build & Tie-In

Footings, framing, roof tie-in, mechanicals, then finishes — with your kitchen and bathrooms kept in service and the work zone sealed and dust-controlled. One project manager, daily progress, and a punch-list walkthrough before we call for final inspection.

Primary bathroom remodel

We recently hired Serden Group LLC for a major master bathroom remodel, and we’re extremely happy with the results. Our original space had a large soaker tub and a small 36" x 36" fiberglass shower. After receiving multiple quotes, we chose Serden Group because they offered a clear plan, a thoughtful design approach, and confidence in handling a full transformation. Our project included several significant changes: removing the soaker tub, building a large, fully tiled walk-in shower, relocating the toilet, installing LVP flooring, and even expanding our master closet by moving a wall. They were consistently flexible and willing to work with every new idea or adjustment we brought up. They took the time to explain options, talk through structural considerations, and make sure each decision supported the overall design. One thing we appreciated was that they provided an initial timeline and projected completion date — and they met it. Even when we experienced a family emergency, they were incredibly accommodating and adjusted their schedule to make things easier for us without slowing the project down. The craftsmanship throughout the remodel is excellent. The tile work is beautiful, the closet expansion looks seamless, and the new layout is far more functional and visually appealing. The finished space feels like a true upgrade to our home. We’re very pleased with the entire experience and highly recommend Serden Group LLC to anyone considering a bathroom remodel. They delivered quality work, stayed true to their timeline, and were genuinely supportive when we needed flexibility.

Bathroom remodel

The SERDEN Group did a complete remodel of our two upstairs bathrooms. Every step of the way Dennis, and his team, were communicative, kind, timely, and productive. They worked diligently, caring about the impact of having workers in your home. Everyone was friendly and attended to our creative ideas for the bathrooms. The few times we ever had any concerns, everyone on the team took action immediately and rectified the situation swiftly. In the end we have two amazing new bathrooms. Our family is grateful for SERDEN and are wonderfully reminded daily of their excellent work. Thank you!

Bathroom remodel

Dennis and his team an absolutely incredible job on our bathroom remodel. They transformed our upstairs bathroom by installing a new bathtub, toilet, double sink vanity, and lightning. For this project, they performed all of the plumbing, electrical, and tile work. Dennis was easy to work and the team showed up every day until the job was finished. We could not be happier with the job they did, and we look forward to hiring them again when we remodel our downstairs bathroom.

Primary & kids' bathrooms · Vancouver, WA

Working w David has been 10/10! I did my research and got several bids for our master bath.. they had competitive pricing and were able to execute my vision better than what I had even imagined!! I had a massive ugly dated jetted tub that took up way too much space and the overall old bathroom was just, not it. David & his AMAZING guys went above and beyond to make sure my dream bathroom was what I wanted. He also did my kids bathroom— and they are so happy with it! Such a nice guy. Def hire them to get your next project done!!

Bedroom-to-bathroom conversion

Super happy with the work Serden Group did to convert part of my primary bedroom to a bathroom. Their price was competitive and they came highly recommended by a friend. Dennis is a great communicator. His team was timely, courteous and professional. If I have other reno projects in the future, I will definitely use them again.

Primary bathroom remodel

Our experience with this company has been great. We got several bids, and decided to hire the Serden Group to demo and remodel our master bath and tear out a corner fireplace in our master bedroom. David, the project manager, was there on site checking in often, and making sure things were going smoothly. The contractors had great work ethic and did a great job. We would not hesitate to use them again.

Primary bathroom remodel

I used Serden Group to do a Master Bathroom remodel in Spring 2024. They were fabulous to work with from the start. Approachable, responsive and easy to get along with. I didn't know where to start with some things and they guided me through the process. The perfect amount of professionalism but casual at the same time. We received several quotes and they were also the most affordable. They are coming out for another bathroom remodel project soon and I'm looking forward to working with them again!

Bathroom remodel

We had Serden Group remodel our bathroom and are really happy with how it turned out. This was something we'd been putting off for a while, and now I wish we'd done it sooner. The crew was respectful of our home, answered our questions, and paid attention to the little details. The tile work looks great, and the whole bathroom feels so much more comfortable to use. We've already recommended them to friends

Kitchen & bathroom remodel

I recently hired Serden Group for a full kitchen and bathroom remodel, and I couldn't be happier with the results! From start to finish, the team was professional, reliable, and detail-oriented. The quality of their work is outstanding — everything from the tile installation to the cabinetry and finishes looks beautiful and well-crafted. They completed the project on time and within budget, which is rare to find these days. I highly recommend Serden Group to anyone looking for top-quality remodeling work. They truly exceeded my expectations!

Whole-home remodel

Fantastic experience! They renovated my entire home with new floors, a full kitchen remodel, and a bathroom upgrade. The kitchen looks amazing with new cabinets, countertop, and appliances, and the bathroom to shower conversion turned out beautifully. Great quality work, finished on time, easy to communicate with, and their pricing was very competitive. Highly recommend!

Kitchen & bathroom remodel

We hired Serden Group to remodel our kitchen and bathroom, and we're really happy with how both turned out. It was a big project for us, so we appreciated being able to ask questions and talk things through along the way. The kitchen is much more practical now, and the bathroom feels like a completely different space. We're glad we finally did it and would happily recommend them!

Bathroom remodel (rental)

These guys are a 100/10 stars. I have nothing but positive things to say for them. I had a bathroom at my rental property that needed a remodel. I called around a few places looking to obtain quotes. All the other competitors prices were just too much and I sense that their work was not quality. Finally a friend of mine recommended these guys and I was absolutely blown away by the price, professionalism, and quality work. The piece of mind is worth double what I paid. Thank you guys!!!!

Kitchen & bathroom remodel

I couldn't be happier with the work that was done! The designer came up with creative, beautiful ideas, and the team delivered! The whole process was extremely organized and very easy on my part. The kitchen and bathroom are stunning and they tackled all my smaller projects just as well. I'm extremely happy with the results. Thank You Serden Team!

Bedroom, bathrooms & kitchen cabinets

We have used Serden Team for 3 projects. They remodeled our master bedroom and bathroom, refaced kitchen cabinets and built a beautiful surround for my refrigerator so it looks built in and remodeled a secondary bathroom. Their work is fantastic. They are easy to work with and communication is the best. I can trust them to do a great job and do the work properly the first time. Wonderful company and will refer them gladly.

What a shower remodel means
in Vancouver

Before the tile question, four local facts decide your scope, your permit path and your timeline. We work through all four on the first visit so nothing surfaces after you have signed.

City limits or Clark County

A Vancouver mailing address does not mean a Vancouver permit. Salmon Creek, Felida, Hazel Dell and Orchards permit through Clark County; addresses inside the city go through City of Vancouver Community Development. Different fees, different inspection queues. We confirm which one you are in from the parcel, not the mailing address.

When a plumbing permit is required

Relocating a drain, adding a valve, moving a wall, or converting a tub to a shower all require a plumbing permit and a rough-in inspection before the walls close. A like-for-like replacement in the same footprint generally does not. We pull the permit and pass the inspection under our license so the work is on record at resale.

The 1990s mortar-bed pan

Homes built here through the 1980s and 1990s used a mortar bed over a PVC liner with no bonded wall membrane — a system with a 20-to-25-year service life that is now expiring across Cascade Park, Hazel Dell and Northwest Neighborhood. If your grout is spreading at the corners or the floor sounds hollow, the failure is behind the tile, not on it.

Ventilation is part of the job

Clark County averages roughly 40 inches of rain a year, and a bathroom with an undersized fan or a duct that dumps into the attic never dries between showers. We size the fan to the room, run the duct to an exterior termination, and put both in the quote — because a perfect waterproofing assembly still grows mold on the surface if the room stays wet.

Permit requirements, fees and system charges change. Verify current requirements with the City of Vancouver or Clark County for your parcel — we handle submittal and inspections either way, and we will tell you which agency has jurisdiction before you commit to a scope.

Vancouver Budget

What a shower remodel costs
in Vancouver, WA

Ranges below reflect finished Vancouver projects including demolition, framing repair, waterproofing, tile labor, glass, permit fees and cleanup. Washington sales tax applies to labor as well as materials.

Shower project Typical scope Vancouver planning range
Acrylic or solid-surface conversion Same footprint, prefab base and wall panels $6,500 – $11,000
Tile walk-in shower, same footprint Custom tile, new valve, semi-frameless glass $12,000 – $22,000
Curbless / zero-threshold shower Recessed pan, linear drain, frameless glass $18,000 – $32,000
Expanded shower (tub removed) New footprint, relocated drain, tile bench $22,000 – $38,000
Shower plus vanity and floor Shower rebuild with the rest of the room refreshed $28,000 – $48,000
Full bathroom around a new shower Everything down to the studs, relocated fixtures $45,000 – $75,000

What pushes the number up

Moving the drain, going curbless over a joist bay or a slab, mosaic and large-format tile, frameless glass, thermostatic valves with body sprays — and any rot we find the day the tub comes out.

What brings it down

Keeping the existing drain and valve locations, one tile size in a simple stack or offset layout, a semi-frameless enclosure, and doing the work while a wall is already open for something else.

What people forget to budget

The exhaust fan and its duct run to the exterior, door hardware, 15% extra tile for cuts and a future repair, and subfloor work nobody can see until demolition. We put an allowance for it in the contract.

Shower Remodeling in Vancouver, WA —
Common Questions

In Vancouver, a same-footprint tile walk-in shower typically runs $12,000–$22,000, a prefab acrylic conversion $6,500–$11,000, and a curbless shower with a recessed pan and linear drain $18,000–$32,000. Widening the opening after a tub comes out puts most projects at $22,000–$38,000. Washington has no state income tax but does charge sales tax on the full contract — labor included — so budget for Clark County sales tax on top of the construction number.
It depends on where your address actually falls. Inside Vancouver city limits, permits go through the City of Vancouver Community Development department; if you are in Salmon Creek, Felida, Hazel Dell, Orchards or another unincorporated area with a Vancouver mailing address, you are permitting through Clark County instead — two different fee schedules and two different inspection queues. Either way, a plumbing permit is required once a drain or valve is relocated or a tub becomes a shower. A straight like-for-like replacement in the same footprint generally is not permitted.
The housing stock here works against showers in two specific ways. Homes built through the 1980s and 1990s almost always used a mortar-bed pan with a PVC liner and no bonded membrane on the walls, which lasts roughly 20–25 years before the corners start weeping. And our wet season means a bathroom with an undersized or unducted exhaust fan never fully dries out, so grout stays damp and mold colonizes the substrate. We check both on the first visit — the fan CFM and the duct termination are part of every shower quote we write.
Usually yes, and the crawlspace is what makes it feasible. A zero-threshold shower needs the pan recessed roughly 1.5–2 inches below the finished floor, which on a wood-framed floor means working between the joists — sistering, blocking and sometimes a header. With a crawlspace we can get underneath to do that properly. Slab-on-grade homes, which are more common in newer Vancouver subdivisions, are harder: there we either core and re-slope or build the whole bathroom floor up to meet the shower.
Plan on 2–3 weeks for a same-footprint tile shower and 3–4 weeks for a tub-to-shower conversion in Vancouver. The variable is inspection scheduling: the plumbing rough-in has to be signed off before we close the walls, and that queue moves at the pace of the jurisdiction, not ours. We sequence tile, paint and the vanity around the wait rather than sitting idle, and frameless glass is templated at the end while the shower is already usable behind a temporary curtain.
Yes. Serden Group LLC is licensed, bonded and insured in Washington and has completed more than 1,500 projects across Clark County since 2015. You can verify our contractor registration with L&I before you sign anything, and we recommend you do that with every bidder — an unregistered contractor leaves you with no bond to claim against and unpermitted work that surfaces at closing.
Yes — those are all inside our core service area, along with Cascade Park, Fisher's Landing, Northwest Neighborhood, Arnada, Hough, Lincoln, Ellsworth and the Columbia River waterfront neighborhoods. We also build in Camas, Washougal, Ridgefield, Battle Ground and La Center. If you are not sure whether your address permits through the city or the county, tell us the cross streets and we will confirm it.
Every shower carries our written workmanship warranty on top of the manufacturer coverage on the valve, glass and tile. We document the waterproofing assembly and photograph the flood test before tile goes on, so if you ever do have a claim there is a record of exactly what is behind the wall instead of an argument about it.
