Bathroom Remodeling in Sunnyvale
Take an original mid-century bath high-end, waterproofed and stone-fabricated in-house, with one team answering for every part of it.
Take the Whole Bath High-End Under One Roof
Most of the Sunnyvale bathrooms we take on were built into a 1950s or 60s tract house, and their owners have finally decided to bring that original bath up to a high-end standard. The danger in a job like that is how discreetly it can unravel. It looks immaculate the week you get the room back, and then some months on the grout begins to stain at the corners, a tile underfoot turns hollow, or a musty note creeps in that scrubbing never reaches. You want the whole thing done once, by one company willing to stand behind it. Since 2006 California Tile & Stone has completed over 5,000 projects for Bay Area homeowners, sealing, tiling, and fabricating stone all under one roof.
The reason a bathroom comes apart this way is almost always that it was built by too many separate hands on too many separate schedules. When the waterproofing, the tile, the stone, and the trim each belong to someone else, no one is truly on the hook for how they add up. Put all of it on one crew, run to one schedule, and that gap closes. We build and seal the shower pan, set the wall and floor tile, and cut and fit your stone vanity top, each stage in its proper turn. If your new layout needs plumbing or electrical moved, that gets handled as part of your project, so one company carries the bathroom from the first day to the last.
How far a Sunnyvale bathroom can go really comes down to two questions: how much square footage you can give it, and how the house was originally built to move water. Around here that usually means a mid-century ranch or a post-and-beam Eichler on a radiant slab, where the supply and drain runs behave nothing like they do over a raised foundation. We read that first, the day we walk the room, whether you are reworking a tight original layout or opening it up into the low-threshold, spa-style shower Sunnyvale owners keep asking us to build.
The Layer That Decides Whether It Lasts
Everything you will see in your finished bathroom rests on one layer you never will. The membrane and the fall built into the shower pan are what actually hold the water, and both vanish under the tile the day it goes down. Because that layer cannot be inspected once it is buried, it is where a rushed job hides its corners and where the repair bill later finds you. We keep it on our own crew and give it the time the rest of the room depends on.
In Sunnyvale’s Eichler and mid-century slab homes that step carries extra weight, because the bathroom sits on a concrete slab with the drain lines cast inside it. Moving a shower or shifting a drain means working into the slab and rebuilding the waterproofing correctly over it, with no access from below to fix a shortcut later. When your layout changes, that drain reroute gets handled as part of your project, and the pan and membrane are detailed to hold from the slab up. The same care is what lets the low-threshold, curbless walk-in so many Sunnyvale owners want stay a feature instead of becoming a leak.
Choose the Slab, and We Lay Out the Stone Around Your Room
When you take a modest original bath high-end, the stone is where it shows. So we start with the slab itself: you choose the marble, quartzite, or quartz, and we lay the vanity top out around its best veining before a single cut is made. Using Slabsmith digital templating, we map the movement of the stone and position the seams and the sink cutout where they read cleanest, so the pattern flows the way you pictured rather than falling wherever a standard layout happens to put it.
From there the piece is cut on our own CNC equipment to your room, not to a catalog dimension. In a 1950s Sunnyvale ranch, where walls have settled and openings are seldom square, that means the finished top meets the wall tight and the edge profile you picked carries cleanly around every corner.
One Company Standing Behind Every Layer
You get one shot at doing this right, and we back it. Your Sunnyvale remodel comes with a one-year workmanship warranty covering the waterproofing, the grout integrity and tile adhesion, the slab fabrication, and the edge finishing. Since every one of those steps was done by our own crew, a single company stands behind it, not a chain of people pointing at each other.
That work is led by founder Juan Villarreal, whose 30-plus years in tile and stone set the standard the rest of us build to. He runs the shop as nine two-person crews, 18 professionals carrying more than 180 combined years and over 5,000 finished projects since 2006, all under CSLB license #1051161 (C-54) and held to the standards of the National Stone Institute and the Tile Council of North America.
