Do I need a plumber for a bathroom remodel?
Yes, whenever a remodel moves or replaces a toilet, shower, tub or sink, or opens walls with pipe inside. Ethical Plumbing handles the plumbing for bathroom remodels, from rough-in to fixture installation, and works alongside your contractor. We do the plumbing, not the full remodel. Call 864-438-0525.

The plumbing is the part you cannot redo later
Once tile and drywall go up, the pipe behind them is there for decades. That is why the plumbing stage of a bathroom remodel matters more than any finish you pick. Drains need the right slope and venting, shower valves need to sit at the right depth for the trim you chose, and supply lines need shutoffs where you can reach them.
We plan the plumbing with you and your contractor before demolition, replace aging pipe while the walls are open, and pressure-test everything before it is covered. If your home still has galvanized or polybutylene supply lines, a remodel is the cheapest time to replace them; ask about repiping the rest of the house while you are at it.

Plan the plumbing before demolition
A few decisions save time and money:
- Pick the shower valve and trim first
- Confirm where the toilet flange can move
- Decide on a curbless shower before framing
- Replace old supply pipe while walls are open
- Add shutoff valves at every fixture
- Leave an access panel behind the shower if you can

Bathroom remodel plumbing FAQs
Do you do full bathroom remodels?
No. We handle the plumbing for bathroom remodels and work alongside your contractor, who handles tile, cabinets and finishes.
Can you move a toilet to a new spot?
Usually, yes. It depends on the floor structure and drain route. We look at it before you commit to a layout.
Can you install a shower valve I bought?
Yes, as long as it suits your water pressure and the wall depth. We check the model before rough-in.
Should I replace old pipe during a remodel?
If your home has galvanized or polybutylene pipe, yes. With the walls open, replacing it costs much less than later.
Do you pull permits for remodel plumbing?
When the work requires a permit, we let you know and handle the plumbing portion.
How long does bathroom remodel plumbing take?
Rough-in usually takes one to three days depending on what moves. Fixture installation happens after tile and finishes.
Can you install a curbless shower drain?
Yes. Curbless showers need planning at the framing stage so the floor can slope to a linear or center drain.
Do you work with my contractor?
Yes. We coordinate schedules so plumbing is ready before walls close and fixtures go in after finishes.
