No contact details are needed to build or save your plan. You can leave optional choices for the consultation.
Plan demolition, subfloor repairs, plumbing, electrical, waterproofing, tile, glass and fixtures as one scope. Keeping the layout can reduce relocation work; concealed conditions still need review.
Northern Virginia service availability depends on the location, scope and schedule. A mailing city does not always identify the permitting authority.
Bathroom remodeling: what do you have in mind?
Material selections & preparation (optional)
Material-selection checklist
What have you already selected?
Mark items you have chosen for discussion. Keep model numbers and samples; selections still need a compatibility and quantity review.
Check warranty, lead time and who supplies each item before purchasing. Selection guidance can include HOM’s preferred ProSource of Metro DC showroom in Alexandria; no exclusive affiliation is implied.

Planning guide: Bathroom remodeling
Your remodeling goals
Start with what matters to you.
Think about what prompted your remodel: better everyday function, a fresh look, repairs, room for family, easier access or getting ready to sell.
Tell us what is not working today and what a successful remodel would change. We’ll use your priorities to shape the consultation and explore the right scope together.
Timeline guidance
The decisions that set your schedule.
- Measure and define the layout
- Confirm selections, permits and delivery dates
- Demolition, repairs and rough-ins
- Waterproofing, flood test and required inspections
- Tile, fixtures, glass and closeout
Share any fixed deadline, travel dates and rooms that must remain usable so HOM can assess a realistic schedule. Actual construction duration and start date require site review, approved scope, permit review, product lead times and crew availability.
Permit considerations
Confirm the property and the work.
Discuss building and trade permits for the specific plumbing, electrical, ventilation and structural work. Do not assume a same-layout bathroom is exempt.
HOM coordinates applicable permits and inspections within the agreed scope. Association approvals are a separate check. This guide does not decide whether your individual project requires a permit.
