Kent Bathroom Remodel — Fixing 30-Year-Old Tract Bathrooms
East Hill homes along 104th Ave SE and around Lake Meridian (98042) were built fast in the late 1980s and early '90s — and the bathrooms show it. Builder-grade Moen fixtures, vinyl flooring over bare concrete board, no waterproofing membrane behind the tub surround. Thirty-plus years of PNW rain does a number on that. Starting from studs, with Schluter Kerdi installed correctly and layouts that actually work — that's what a real remodel looks like here.
The bulk of Kent's housing, especially on East Hill (98042) and near the Green River corridor (98032), dates to 1985-1998. These tract builds used minimal blocking behind walls — a problem when mounting heavy vanity mirrors, towel bars, or ADA grab bars years later. Original drain rough-ins were positioned for standard alcove tubs, not walk-in showers. Rerouting those cast-iron or ABS drain lines to hit a new shower layout adds scope, but it's standard work for any remodel in these zip codes.
Common Bathroom Remodel Concerns in Kent
Failed waterproofing behind 1990s tub surrounds
Most East Hill tract bathrooms have fiberglass tub surrounds installed over standard drywall — no real waterproofing membrane. Seams fail around year 20-25, water wicks into the framing, and you get rot behind walls that look fine from the outside. Fix involves stripping to studs, treating any affected framing, and installing Schluter Kerdi or RedGard before new tile goes up.
Converting alcove tub layouts to walk-in showers
The 98042 tract builds rough-in drains at the alcove tub position — wrong spot for a walk-in shower. Conversion means rerouting the drain, moving hot/cold supply lines, adding blocking for a shower niche and bench, and running a proper 2-inch drain line. Curbless showers require sloping the subfloor too — not just setting a mud bed flat.
Exhaust fans that can't handle Pacific Northwest humidity
Kent gets around 37 inches of rain annually. Original bath fans in these homes push 50 CFM at best — often venting into attic space instead of through the roof. That's a mold setup. During a full remodel we swap in Broan or Panasonic units at 110+ CFM, ducted properly to the exterior, with a humidistat so they cycle when moisture actually builds.

What Our Kent Customers Say
Vlad and his team did an amazing job! They built our deck in just 3 days—no issues at all. Communication was easy, and Vlad helped us choose right deck planks. Installation was quick and flawless. Highly recommend!
Really happy with the service! Vlad was easy to communicate with and helped us to find the best garage door opener. The installation was quick and he did a perfect job. A few months later, I had a question and he came by the same day - even on a weekend. That kind of follow-up is rare these days!
Vlad replaced a bathroom exhaust fan and gave me a reasonable quote up front with no hidden fees. While replacing the fan, he discovered a plumbing vent issue causing mold. He fixed the pipe and treated the mold at a reasonable cost. I really appreciate his honesty!
Outstanding work done by Vlad and team for our home cabinet/living room interior work. Very professional and reasonable charges. Love the service.
We hired TopVolk for a full kitchen remodel and couldn't be happier. From the initial consultation to final walkthrough, Vlad was professional and attentive to every detail. The result exceeded our expectations!
