Four Bathrooms, One Vision: A Comprehensive Woodbridge Renovation
When a home has great bones but a dated interior, the bathrooms are often the first to show their age. This was precisely the case for a family in Woodbridge, Vaughan, whose four bathrooms needed a complete overhaul.
We embarked on a transformative multi-bathroom renovation to rethink their flow and personality. The goal was to create four distinct sanctuaries within one home. From a stunning avocado green vanity in the master ensuite to a sleek wood panel floating vanity in the powder room, this project proves that a cohesive home design can still celebrate individuality.

Project Overview
This project is a prime example of how to execute a large-scale renovation in the Vaughan area efficiently.
- Project Type: Whole-Home Bathroom Renovation (4 Rooms)
- Location: Woodbridge, ON (Vaughan)
- Timeline: 2 Weeks (Fast-track)
- Core Upgrades: 4 Custom Vanities, Schluter-KERDI waterproofing, layout optimization, LED lighting updates.
Design Vision: 4 Rooms, 4 Personalities
Our design strategy was twofold: optimize every square foot and infuse each bathroom with unique character.
1. Master Ensuite: A Spa-Like Retreat
- Vibe: Earthy, organic, and luxurious.
- Key Feature: A custom avocado green vanity. Its warm, organic color sets a tranquil tone, paired with brushed gold fixtures and terrazzo-style tiles.
- Upgrade: We installed a curbless shower with a linear drain to remove visual barriers.
2. Shared Kids’ Bathroom: Durable & Stylish
- Vibe: Playful yet sophisticated.
- Key Feature: A fluted custom black vanity. The fluted texture adds depth, while the dark finish is forgiving for high-traffic areas.
- Upgrade: Deep drawers hide clutter, and durable quartz countertops withstand daily wear and tear.
3. Hallway Guest Bathroom: Fresh & Inviting
- Vibe: Bright and energetic.
- Key Feature: A cheerful sky blue vanity. This pop of color energizes the small space.
- Upgrade: We adjusted the layout to fit a larger vanity than the original pedestal sink, maximizing counter space.
4. The Powder Room: Small Space, Big Impact
- Vibe: Moody and elegant.
- Key Feature: A custom wood panel floating vanity.
- Upgrade: Mounting the vanity to the wall frees up floor space, creating an illusion of a larger room in this compact area.

The Renovation Process: Managing Multi-Room Projects
Renovating four bathrooms in 2 weeks requires military-grade coordination. Whether in Woodbridge or elsewhere in Vaughan, our process ensures efficiency.
Phase 1: Demolition & Rough-ins
We stripped all four bathrooms to the studs simultaneously. This allowed our licensed plumbers and electricians to reconfigure systems for all rooms at once—moving drains for floating vanities and updating wiring to ESA standards.
Phase 2: Waterproofing & Tiling
Our team applied the Schluter-KERDI membrane to all showers. Once cured, tile setters worked in rotation across the rooms, ensuring no downtime.
Phase 3: Installation & Finishes
The custom vanities (Avocado Green, Sky Blue, Fluted Black, and Walnut) were installed. Countertops, fixtures, and lighting followed. A final deep clean delivered four turnkey bathrooms ready for use.
Why Custom Bathroom Renovation Matters
1. Maximizing Storage
Off-the-shelf vanities often waste space. Custom units allowed us to fit maximize storage in the odd layout of the hallway bath and the compact powder room.
2. Personality
Why settle for generic white? This project shows that bold choices like avocado green or sky blue can significantly elevate a home’s value and appeal.
3. Peace of Mind
From Schluter waterproofing to ESA-certified electrical work, professional renovation protects your home from water damage and fire hazards.
FAQ: Renovating in Woodbridge & Vaughan
Do I need a permit for a multi-bathroom renovation?
In Vaughan (including Woodbridge), if you are moving plumbing locations or altering structural walls, a permit is required. We handle the entire application process for our clients to ensure full compliance with the Ontario Building Code.
How do you waterproof a shower?
We use the Schluter-KERDI system. It’s a topical membrane that sits behind the tile, creating a completely watertight barrier that prevents mold and leaks. We flood-test our showers before tiling to guarantee integrity.
What is the advantage of a floating vanity?
Besides the modern aesthetic, a floating vanity (like the one in the powder room) exposes more floor area, making small rooms feel larger. It also makes cleaning the floor much easier.
