Easton Neighborhoods We Serve

Easton neighborhoods vary in age, construction type, and scope complexity. Here's what we typically encounter in each:

• College Hill (Victorian): Primary bathrooms typically added mid-20th-century retrofits. Original cast-iron stacks and lead-soldered supply lines frequently need replacement during remodel.
• West Ward: Row-home and twin stock with original 5x8 bathroom footprint. Curbless-shower conversions constrained by floor framing height; floor-lowering adds cost.
• Downtown Easton (historic row-home): Pre-1900 row-homes with narrow vertical plumbing chases. Stack relocation during layout changes adds $2,500-$4,500.
• South Side Easton (mid-century): Post-war ranch stock with 1950s-60s plumbing. Modern scope; fewer surprises.
• Wilson Borough: Mix of mid-century twins with original tiled bathrooms. Waterproofing upgrade (Schluter) standard on any tile-shower remodel.
