Luxury Natural Stone Bathroom Remodel in Escondido, CA | Team Renovate

Edgar Neria • July 3, 2025
When a bathroom feels cramped and outdated, a complete transformation can change not just the space, but how you feel at home.

 That was the vision behind this Escondido project, where Team Renovate expanded a tiny, outdated bathroom into a luxurious, spa-inspired retreat clad in beautiful natural Tarbertino stone.

Here's how we took a narrow, uncomfortable bathroom and turned it into a stunning, functional oasis.

The Challenge | A Tiny Layout with No Comfort or Style

Before the remodel, the client faced:


  • A narrow, confined bathroom layout (only about 2x2 feet).
  • A low, boxed-in ceiling soffit that made the room feel even smaller.
  • No comfortable space for daily routines or relaxation.
  • Limited storage, leading to cluttered surfaces and frustration.

The client dreamed of a larger, elegant, modern bathroom where she could relax, and store essentials without sacrificing design.

Our Solution | Full Expansion with Natural Stone Luxury

After reviewing the space and understanding the client’s vision, we proposed a full gut remodel and expansion featuring:


  • Demolishing the soffit and removing walls to open up the space vertically and horizontally.
  • Reframing the layout to create a larger walk-in shower and more usable square footage.
  • Installing Tarbertino natural stone (sourced from Lima) on all floors, walls, and niches for a luxurious, seamless finish.
  • Adding custom-built shower niches for organized, built-in storage of shampoo, soaps, and essentials.
  • Building a full stone bench inside the shower for comfort and spa-inspired luxury.
  • Upgrading plumbing, lighting, and modern fixtures to match the elevated design.
  • Ensuring seamless transitions between stone surfaces for a clean, sophisticated look.

Every material, line, and fixture was selected for luxury, durability, and timeless style.

The Remodel Details | Upgrading for Everyday Luxury

This was a full upgrade from the studs including:


  • Demolition of walls, ceiling soffit, and old fixtures.
  • Framing and expanding the layout to maximize functionality and openness.
  • Installation of natural Tarbertino stone throughout the bathroom.
  • Custom construction of recessed niches and a built-in stone bench.
  • New plumbing, high-end fixtures, and lighting upgrades.
  • Polished, smooth tilework transitions for a seamless, spa-like finish.

The result: a bathroom that feels serene, spacious, and truly luxurious.
