Client Discovery & Trust
This homeowner in Ottawa found iBathrooms through our website. What drew her in wasn’t just a service—it was a feeling. She connected with our videos, customer reviews, and clean design gallery. Inspired by our commitment to simplicity and transparency, she gave us complete creative freedom. “I trust your vision,” she told us more than once.
The Problem
Her bathroom hadn’t been updated in at least 25–30 years. The house, built in the 1960s, had that classic mix of aging infrastructure and hidden surprises. She anticipated problems—and she was right. Behind the walls, we found mold, a wasp infestation, and deteriorated insulation. Without blinking, our team remediated all of it, replaced several rotten studs, and upgraded the entire wall assembly—at no extra charge.
The Need for Change
Her husband is preparing for hip surgery, and they needed a safer, more accessible shower. With retirement on the horizon, the couple wanted to invest in comfort and peace of mind. Their dream? A spa-like atmosphere, reminiscent of their favorite destination—Nordik Spa-Nature in Chelsea, QC.
Challenges & Solutions
Renovating older homes is always a leap of faith. Once demo began, we uncovered:
- Crumbling insulation – Replaced with new
- Mold and mildew – Fully remediated
- Active wasp nests – Safely removed
- Rotten framing – Rebuilt structurally
All of this was handled promptly, cleanly, and—most importantly—without unexpected fees.
The Result
“Beauty is found in simple elegance.” That’s our design philosophy, and it aligned perfectly with the client’s wishes:
- Clean lines
- High-functioning elements
- Low-maintenance finishes
- Natural textures that evoke calmness
We focused on intuitive Scandinavian bathroom design—nothing overly complicated, just timeless flow.
