Small Bathroom Remodeling for Toledo & Northwest Ohio

Toledo's homes—from Old West End Victorians to 1950s ranches in Holland—often have small, outdated bathrooms. Whether it's a cramped hall bath in Sylvania, a tiny master bath in Perrysburg, or a powder room in Ottawa Hills, we know how to maximize every square foot.

We've remodeled hundreds of small bathrooms across Lucas County and Wood County. We understand the unique challenges of older Toledo homes—weird plumbing layouts, small doorways, and limited ventilation.

Our local crew lives and works here. We're not a big-box store sending random subcontractors—you get the same experienced team from start to finish.

DESIGN IDEAS

Space-Saving Ideas That Transform Small Bathrooms

Smart design choices can make a 5x8 bathroom feel twice as big. Here's what works best in compact spaces.

Walk-In Shower

Replace bulky tub-shower combo with a sleek walk-in shower. Opens up floor space visually.

+ Frameless glass makes it feel even bigger

Floating Vanity

Wall-mounted vanities create visible floor space underneath, making room feel larger.

+ Easier to clean underneath too

Large Format Tile

Bigger tiles = fewer grout lines = rooms look bigger. Works on floors and walls.

+ Light colors amplify the effect

Corner Fixtures

Corner sinks, corner toilets, and corner showers maximize awkward layouts.

+ Opens up center floor space

Recessed Storage

Built-in niches, medicine cabinets, and recessed shelving don't eat floor space.

+ Shower niches are a must-have

Pocket Door

Swinging doors steal 9+ sq ft. Pocket doors slide into the wall, freeing space.

+ Barn doors work for some layouts

COMMON QUESTION

"Should I Remove the Tub?"

It's the #1 question we get about small bathroom remodels. Here's the honest answer:

Remove it if...

You have another tub in the house, no small kids, and want more shower space

Keep it if...

It's your only bathroom, you have small children, or you're selling soon (buyers want at least one tub)

Alternative option:

A smaller, modern soaking tub or Japanese-style deep tub takes less space than standard 5' tub

Why Small Bathrooms Are Tricky

Small bathrooms aren't just scaled-down big bathrooms. Every inch matters, and mistakes are magnified.

Tight Clearances

Code requires specific clearances around fixtures—harder to meet in small spaces

Plumbing Limits

Moving fixtures means moving pipes—expensive and sometimes impossible

Ventilation

Small bathrooms get humid fast—proper exhaust is critical to prevent mold

Storage

You still need to store towels, toiletries—creative solutions required

"Our 5x7 bathroom felt like a closet. They converted the tub to a walk-in shower, added a floating vanity, and now it feels twice as big. Best decision we made!"

"Small hall bathroom in our 1960s ranch. Just Ask maximized every inch—built-in niches, corner sink, large tile to make it look bigger. Looks amazing and finally functional!"

"Tiny master bath with a tub we never used. They gave us a gorgeous walk-in shower with a bench and tons of storage. Can't believe it's the same space. Highly recommend!"
