Your local bathroom remodeling contractor in Lawrence
Need bathroom remodeling in Lawrence, MA? As a Northborough-based, licensed and insured contractor, Waterfront Construction brings 15+ years of hands-on experience to Lawrence homes. From the first estimate to the final walkthrough you work directly with the owner — clear communication, fair pricing, and a finish built to last New England winters.
Lawrence is in Essex County, Massachusetts, established in 1847 and home to roughly 89,000 people. Its growth came with the mills and the railroads, so much of the older housing is mid-1800s worker and merchant stock — balloon framing, deep sash windows, and porches that have usually been rebuilt at least once. We know the town well — from Tower Hill, the Arlington District and South Lawrence to the quieter streets — and our bathroom remodeling crews reach Lawrence quickly from nearby Northborough. It is about 45 miles from our Northborough shop — about an hour in normal traffic.
Material choice drives most of the cost difference on a bathroom remodeling project. Rather than quote one option, we walk Lawrence homeowners through what each tier actually buys in durability, upkeep and appearance — so the budget goes where it matters to you, not where it matters to us.
We stand behind what we build. If something isn't right after we've gone, you call and we come back — that's the point of being licensed, insured and easy to find in Lawrence, rather than a number that stops answering.

Do I need a permit for bathroom remodeling in Lawrence, MA?+
Partly. Cabinets, counters and tile are exempt finish work, but the plumbing, electrical and gas behind them each need their own permit, and moving a wall needs a building permit. We pull whichever your job requires. We file it with Lawrence's building and inspectional services department as a Registered Home Improvement Contractor (MA HIC #196540).
How much does a bathroom remodel cost in Massachusetts?+
A powder-room refresh and a full bathroom with a tiled shower are very different projects. The biggest single cost driver is whether any fixture moves, because relocating a waste line means opening the floor. We estimate after measuring, itemised.
Is a tub-to-shower conversion just swapping fixtures?+
No — the drain moves and the waterproofing changes, so it is plumbing work rather than a fixture swap. It is well worth doing when the tub never gets used, but it should be priced as construction.

The finishes are exempt; what is behind them usually is not.
780 CMR exempts cabinets, counter tops, tiling and similar finish work from a building permit. But a kitchen or bathroom remodel almost always triggers separate electrical, plumbing and gas permits, and moving or removing any wall needs a building permit of its own. We pull whichever apply.
For bathroom remodeling work in the City of Lawrence, the filing goes to Lawrence's building and inspectional services department. As a Massachusetts Registered Home Improvement Contractor (HIC #196540) we pull the permit in our name, book the inspections and meet the inspector on site — you never have to take a day off for it. Requirements do change, so we confirm the current position with Lawrence's office before any work starts.
