When it comes to remodeling your home, the guest bathroom is often overlooked. Yet it's one of the most frequently used spaces by visitors, and it plays a big role in your home's overall feel and functionality. At Team Renovate, we believe that even small spaces deserve thoughtful design and quality craftsmanship.


Here’s how we helped a Poway homeowner completely transform her outdated guest bathroom into a modern, inviting space her guests (and she) can enjoy.


The Challenge | Outdated, Cramped, and Lacking Comfort


Our client, Tara, reached out to Team Renovate because her guest bathroom no longer met her needs. The space felt cramped, worn down, and outdated. The finishes were tired, the layout inefficient, and the overall design lacked the welcoming, stylish feel she envisioned for her home.

Tara wanted a clean, modern update that made better use of the available space, without sacrificing comfort or style.


Our Solution | A Thoughtful, Full-Scope Remodel


After meeting with Tara and understanding her vision, we proposed a full renovation of the guest bathroom, a true "gut and rebuild" down to the studs.


Here’s what we planned:


  • Reworked the layout to create a more open, comfortable flow.

  • Added a built-in bench inside the shower for both function and design.

  • Updated plumbing to ensure better drainage and futureproof the space.

  • Upgraded lighting for a brighter, more welcoming atmosphere.

  • Installed a custom sliding door to maximize usable floor space.

  • Provided 3D renderings through our in-house designer, helping Tara visualize the final design before construction even began.

We made it a point to collaborate closely with Tara every step of the way, ensuring the new bathroom would reflect both her needs and personal style.


The Remodel Process | Quality from the Ground Up


This project was a full renovation, not just a surface refresh. Our scope of work included:


  • Demolishing the existing bathroom structure down to the studs.

  • Installing new plumbing for the sink and shower.

  • Building a custom vanity and sink base tailored to the updated layout.

  • Laying new tile throughout, including inside the new shower.

  • Adding a custom-built bench for added functionality.

  • Fitting a modern sliding door to open up the space.

  • Refreshing the paint, lighting, fixtures, and trim for a cohesive, polished finish.

With the reimagined layout and updated design elements, the once-cramped bathroom was transformed into a bright, spacious, and stylish retreat, exactly what Tara envisioned.

The Result | A Fresh Start for a Guest Bathroom


Today, Tara’s guest bathroom feels completely different, open, welcoming, and sophisticated. The built-in bench, improved layout, modern finishes, and attention to detail combine to create a space she’s proud to share with guests.


And best of all? She now has a stylish, comfortable space that adds value and enjoyment to her home every day.
