Bathroom remodeling in Edgewater
What's different about remodeling a bathroom in a lakefront high-rise?
Edgewater includes lakefront high-rises, vintage courtyard buildings and single-family homes in its historic pockets. If you're in a tower, building management and logistics will shape your project.
Housing you'll commonly see
High-rise condos and vintage courtyard buildings make up a significant share of homes, alongside detached houses in parts of the area. Every property is different, so treat this as context rather than a description of your home.
High-rise logistics
Expect rules on elevator use, work hours and debris removal. Some buildings maintain a list of approved trades or require specific insurance.
Concrete slabs
Many high-rises have concrete floors, which can limit moving drains or recessing a shower floor. Low-curb showers are often the practical choice.
Can I go curbless in a high-rise condo?
It's often difficult over a concrete slab. Ask about low-profile curb and linear drain options.
