COMMON QUESTIONS

Frequently Ask Questions

What are the essentials for a code-compliant shower?

Proper waterproofing, approved drains, slope to drain, and compliant materials (tempered safety glazing for enclosures) are required. 

Yes—two-part drains and liner inspections (IRC P2709/P2503.6) help prevent hidden leaks and sanitation issues. Bronze Ridge Contracting tests every waterproofing system that we install to verify that it is 100%.

No—tile and grout permit moisture migration; and allows water to penetrate through to the surfaces behind the tile. Bronze Ridge Contracting uses ANSI A118.10 waterproof membranes and follows correct wall/floor waterproofing installation methods. 

Yes—permitting and inspections as required; we provide a 1-Year Workmanship Warranty and a booklet of manufacturer warranties for installed products. 

For a standard tear‑out and rebuild (no major structural changes), most projects run 2–3 weeks on site. In a one‑bath home, we phase work so you’re not without essentials overnight—e.g., set the toilet by late afternoon during rough‑in days, keep a temporary sink option, and schedule “wet work” (waterproofing/tile setting) to allow evening access. Final glass (custom shower doors) often follows 7–10 business days after tile completion because it’s measured post‑tile for accuracy.

  • Day 1: Protect home, demo, rough layout checks, material staging.
  • Days 2–5: Rough plumbing & electrical, framing tweaks, fan/duct routing. Inspections where required.
  • Days 6–7: Waterproofing (pan, walls, membranes), mud work, dry‑fit fixtures.
  • Days 8–10: Tile install (floor, walls), grout, cures.
  • Days 11–15: Vanity/counter, lighting, trim, paint, accessories, silicone.
  • Days 16–21: Punch list, clean, measure/install custom glass (glass install may land a few days later).
    (Actual sequence/spacing varies with inspections, lead times, and scope.)

Cost drivers:

  • (a) Layout changes (moving drains/vents and electrical) 
  • (b) Tile complexity (large‑format, niche counts, patterns)
  • (c) Custom glass & cabinetry.

 High‑value upgrades:

  • (1) Quality waterproofing system (prevents any chance of leaks)
  • (2) Ventilation upgrade (quiet, correctly ducted fan) 
  • (3) Durable surfaces (porcelain tile, quartz tops) 
  • (4) LED lighting and 
  • (5) WaterSense fixtures for lower operating costs. EPA notes families can save ~2,700 gallons of water and >330 kWh/year with labeled showerheads alone.

If you’re moving plumbing/electrical, altering framing, or replacing/mechanically venting fans, you’ve crossed into permit‑triggering renovation territory. Under Pennsylvania’s Uniform Construction Code (UCC)—local authorities enforce permits/inspections for plumbing, electrical, mechanical, and structural work. Surface‑level swaps in existing locations (paint, accessories, same‑spot vanity top) may not trigger permits, but always confirm locally.

In the City of Erie, permits are issued (and inspections scheduled) for building, plumbing, electrical, and mechanical work. Renovations and repairs to structures and any electrical, plumbing, or mechanical work are regulated—submit to the Code Enforcement office before starting. Pennsylvania’s UCC requires permits for work that alters these systems; emergency repairs allow filing within three business days. We handle this for you.

The International Residential Code (IRC) requires bathroom/toilet room exhaust air to discharge outdoors (not into attics/soffits) and a local exhaust capacity of ≥50 CFM (intermittent) or ≥20 CFM (continuous) as a minimum. For better moisture control, the Home Ventilating Institute (HVI) recommends sizing at ~1 CFM per sq. ft. up to 100 sq. ft., or by fixture in larger baths (e.g., 50 CFM each for toilet, tub, and shower). We’ll size/duct per HVI and route outside per code.

Two common causes: (1) Undersized or poorly routed fans (long or crushed flex duct, no exterior termination), and (2) moisture getting behind tile when only “water‑resistant” backers are used without a true ANSI A118.10 waterproofing membrane. We spec a code‑compliant fan that exhausts outside, size it by HVI guidelines, undercut doors for makeup air, and use bonded waterproofing systems behind tile (not just moisture‑resistant board).

  • Transfer‑style shower: 36″×36″ (min) with seat and grab bars.
  • Roll‑in shower: 60″ length × 30″ (min) clear width; alternate roll‑in 60″×36″.
  • Grab bars typically mounted 33″–36″ AFF, and toilet seat heights 17″–19″; toilet centerline 16″–18″ from side wall. Even though ADA doesn’t mandate private homes, using these clearances greatly improves safety and usability.

Modern WaterSense‑labeled showerheads are independently tested for spray force and coverage, not just flow ≤2.0 gpm, to maintain a satisfying shower. Pairing with a thermostatic mixing valve stabilizes temperature when other fixtures run, improving comfort at lower flows. EPA data show WaterSense models can save ~2,700 gallons and >330 kWh/year per household.

For small spaces like bathrooms, radiant floors are often more efficient than baseboard and can be more efficient than forced air because they avoid duct losses and deliver heat where you feel it. Hydronic systems are the most energy‑efficient for large areas; electric radiant is ideal for spot‑heating baths with smart thermostats/timers. Typical install costs and operating costs vary by system and size; electric or hydronic systems at roughly $4–$25/ft² installed and $1–$7/day to operate depending on area, usage, and local rates. 

Use drawer‑based vanities (higher capacity than doors), a tall linen tower that’s shallow (12–15″), recessed medicine cabinets, and in‑shower niches placed away from direct spray. Light, continuous flooring lines and well‑placed mirrors keep the room feeling open. We’ll confirm wall cavities and stud layout before committing to recesses.

We isolate the work zone with zip walls, run HEPA air scrubbers, protect floors with ram board, and schedule loud tasks within agreed windows. Daily cleanup, covered pathways, and door/return‑air protection keep dust contained. You’ll get a daily progress update and a clear “quiet hours” plan.

For most small offices and multi‑unit properties, floor‑mounted, overhead‑braced partitions are the best balance of stability, privacy height, and serviceability. Ceiling‑hung cleans fastest underfoot but needs a structural ceiling grid; floor‑to‑ceiling offers maximum rigidity but costs more and complicates floor/ceiling penetrations. Whatever you choose, we’ll lay out stalls to meet ADA compartment clearances—60″ wide and 56″ (wall‑hung) or 59″ (floor‑mounted) deep for wheelchair‑accessible stalls, with compliant door placement and hardware.
