Bathroom Remodeling in Springville, NY

Springville's large Victorian homes on East Hill (built by 19th-century business owners) require specialized historic preservation. We preserve original architectural details like decorative moldings and wainscoting, salvage and refinish period fixtures when possible, replicate original tile patterns using custom or reproduction tiles, restore original wood floors and windows, use historically appropriate colors and materials, conceal modern plumbing behind period walls, and coordinate with preservation experts for National Register properties. These grand homes are Springville's architectural treasures - we treat them with the respect they deserve while creating functional modern bathrooms.

With 39.1% of Springville homes built before 1940, outdated plumbing is common. We find galvanized steel pipes with severe corrosion (80+ years old), lead plumbing in oldest homes (health hazard), cast iron drains that are cracked or collapsed, lath-and-plaster walls requiring careful demolition, knob-and-tube electrical near bathrooms (fire hazard), inadequate venting causing sewer gas odors, and tiny supply lines restricting flow. During bathroom remodels, we replace these failing systems completely with modern copper or PEX plumbing, PVC drains, code-compliant venting, and increased capacity - ensuring safety and reliability for Erie County's 3rd oldest village.
