Rockville Bathroom Remodeling Guide: Most Common Challenges
After completing countless Rockville bathroom remodeling projects, here are some of the top budget-busting issues you may find after the walls come down and floors come up. (Don't worry, we do our best to take this into consideration during the budget and proposal phase!)
Depending on the era when your home construction happened, there may be some issues with the construction that have, or could cause, problems that you will need to correct. Planning can help eliminate higher costs and frustration as you or your contractor demo the current bathroom.
An issue common to Maryland is hard water as measured by USGS at an average hardness of 118 PPM. Hard water contains high levels of certain minerals that over time cause build-up, decreasing the water quality and even clogging up the drains.

Pinholes in Copper Pipes
Older copper pipes may have developed pinholes in homes without water softeners. Hard water, standard in Rockville, causes build-up and corrosion inside the copper pipes. As the corrosion spreads, it destroys the copper, and pinholes develop. When showers and sinks run, water running through the pipes seeps out through the pinholes and damages the framework and surrounding walls.
If your home has copper piping, it is best to budget for and replace the water lines, even if you do not see any pinhole damage now. Using a water softener may delay corrosion to the pipes, but eventually, there will be a problem.
Cracks in the Acrylic Shower Base
Acrylic shower bases are a popular, cost-effective item but, over time, can develop cracks from general wear and tear, the use of the wrong underlayment, or improper installation. Water leaking through the cracks can destroy the shower foundation underlayment, as well as the framing and joists below.
Replacing an acrylic shower base with porcelain tile can be attractive and offer the added advantages of high density and low moisture permeability. You have the option of installing a tile shower base with tile walls or tiling the bottom and using an acrylic shower surround if your budget is tight.
The County approves two systems for installing complete waterproofing shower bases and walls – Schluter Systems, or Wedi systems.
Known Issues with Rockville Bathrooms Built Before 1970
Nothing is more frustrating than tearing into a remodel project and finding issues outside your planned budget. Was your home built before 1970? If so, you need to read on to discover the potential problems that will significantly impact your remodel budget in time and dollars.
Cast Iron Pipes

Cast iron plumbing became common in homes in the 1930s and was the only available option until the 1970s when PVC became more common in plumbing projects. PVC is a durable, cheaper, and more flexible product for home construction.
Cast iron pipes are in homes built before the mid-1970s. Although considered a durable product in their day, the lines can build up with mineral deposits and develop rust over time.
Older homes with cast iron plumbing and sewer lines are at risk of damage from tree roots that grow into the water and sewer lines. These can cause black water to enter the pipes, rust contamination, fungus and bacteria growth, and resulting issues to the plumbing inside of the home. Some problems can create clogged or slow drains, water discoloration, foul smells from sewer gases, and more.
Replacement of cast iron pipes within the home during a remodel should be a priority.
Improper Subfloor

Many older homes were built without using plywood or waterproofing material as the subfloor in bathrooms. Current standards for construction use plywood, then a waterproof material before installing the shower base.
If your bathroom dates before the 1950s, it is possible that it has no subfloor. Many bathrooms were constructed with 1 x 4 lumber nailed diagonally to the floor joists. Over time, moisture on these boards can deteriorate the wood and make the floor unstable.
While remodeling, install a plywood subfloor and waterproof material under the shower base.
Plaster Walls Without Proper Insulation

Older home walls were often built with lathe and plaster and had no insulation. If planning a remodel on your bathroom, removing the plaster and lathe and replacing it with drywall is a practical step.
Repairing a plaster wall is labor-intensive, which drives up the cost. In addition, plaster does not meet energy-efficient thermal standards. Plaster walls attract moisture, which are breeding areas for mold and mildew.
By removing a plaster wall, insulation beneath new bathroom drywall creates energy efficiency for your bathroom. Several moisture-barrier types are available for use, so check with your home improvement center for costs.
Electrical Wiring Issues
Wiring in older homes can be a big concern, especially in the bathroom where hairdryers, curling irons, and similar gadgets are used. The main problem is if the wiring is grounded or ungrounded.
An ungrounded plug can be the source of an electrical fire, shorted-out circuits, shocks, and more. It is ungrounded if any outlet in your home only has the 2-hole (prong) plug as all grounded outlets have 3-holes.
Budgeting to have an electrician run wiring to the bathroom that meets the safety code is a smart idea.
Before You Start Your Bathroom Remodel ...
We’ve addressed the structural issues of plumbing and electricity, but there are also some design and ambiance characteristics you may want to consider.

Best countertops and surfaces to combat hard water
Since hard water is a problem throughout the state and Rockville, you will want to choose surfaces for the bath, shower, sinks, and countertops that better resist hard water deposits.
While porcelain tile is used in many showers, it requires regular cleaning to remove water spots. Many installers recommend wiping down the shower walls and fixtures with a squeegee or towel after each use.
Quartz and high-quality granite are suitable surfaces that are easier to keep clean than marble. Quartz is a natural stone and creates durable countertops when mixed with resin and other materials, and granite is cut and polished into the desired shape. Both quartz and granite should be cleaned with non-ammonia and non-alcohol (green) products. Marble is porous and needs to be sealed regularly (depending on use), and toiletry products can stain marble if spilled.
Fixture Choices
The fixtures you choose for the shower, bath, and sink should be midrange to high quality for durability, performance, and ease of cleaning. Many plumbers and bathroom installers have a favorite brand, but if pricing fixtures to establish your remodel budget, these are a few of the favorites:
Less expensive fixtures will not hold up to regular use and stain or show watermarks. A high-quality fixture will also be easier to find replacement parts if needed.
