Your Ames Bathroom Remodeling Crew
Ames sits in Liberty County with 1,137 people across roughly 3.3 square miles, and housing stock varies street to street. Our bathroom remodeling scope is set after we look at your house rather than off a price sheet, because Older homes here often have galvanised supply lines that are worth replacing while the wall is open.
Our Bathroom Remodeling scope in Ames
- Tile set on proper substrate
- Vanity, fixtures, trim and paint to finish
- Scope agreed, then demolition to the studs where needed
- Framing and rough-in corrected before board goes up
- Shower pan and walls waterproofed and flood-tested
With a 2023 Census estimate of 1,137 residents, Ames is large enough that we see the same construction eras repeat: subdivisions built in runs, with the same details failing in the same order. A shower that was not waterproofed properly is the most expensive thing we get called back to fix in this area.
The numbers on Ames: 1,137 residents (2023 est.) across roughly 3.3 square miles of Liberty County, about 344 people per square mile. Closest communities we also serve: Liberty 3.1 miles out, Hardin 7.2 miles out, Kenefick 7.4 miles out.
Four stages, every time: a free on-site look at your Ames home, a written quote you can hold us to, the work itself done in sequence, and a final walkthrough where you sign off before we do.

Experience shows up in the boring parts of a job. After 20+ years we know where bathroom remodeling goes wrong, so a Ames quote covers the real work up front instead of growing halfway through, and the crew that starts your job finishes it.
Touch-ups and callbacks are where distance shows. With Liberty just 3.1 miles from Ames on the same route, coming back to make something right is a detour for us, not a lost day, so it actually happens.
