Best Bathroom Remodels in Dutchess and the Hudson Valley

Before and after photos of old vs new bahrooms

Each of these problems reduces your daily comfort, increases long-term costs, and lowers the value of your home around Poughkeepsie and the Hudson Valley.

You don't need to continue to live with a gross outdated bathroom.

The emotional cost — embarrassment with guests, anxiety about hidden problems, disruption of family life — is real.


That’s where we step in.



Here’s how we deliver results that last:

Local expertise:
We’ve remodeled bathrooms across Hopewell Junction, the Poughkeepsie area, Fishkill, Beacon, Wappingers Falls, Hyde Park, Pawling, Newburgh, Highland and neighboring towns — so we know the common plumbing layouts, permit needs, and design styles that sell in this market.

Clear, fixed proposals:
You get a detailed, written scope and a single point of contact. No surprises.

Licensed trade partners: Insured plumbers, electricians, and tile installers — all coordinated by your project manager.

Permits & inspections handled:
We pull the necessary permits and schedule inspections so your remodel meets local codes.

Durable materials & smart design:
We recommend products that perform in Hudson Valley conditions and look great for years.

Real timelines & clean job sites:
We communicate schedule updates and leave your home clean every day.

Warranty & follow-up care: We stand behind our work — and we return promptly if anything needs attention.


The Problems Hudson Valley Homeowners Keep Facing (and why they matter)

- Outdated layout & wasted space. A poor layout makes everyday routines slower and reduces storage, resale appeal, and flow.

- Water leaks, poor drainage, or old plumbing. These quietly destroy finishes and raise water bills — and they worsen in older Dutchess & Ulster County homes.


- Slippery floors and accessibility issues. Aging family members and guests need safer, barrier-free solutions.


- Patchwork “repairs” after past jobs. Cheap shortcuts lead to premature failures and stress.


- Surprises from contractors: missed deadlines, hidden charges, and unclear scopes. You deserve transparency and predictable timelines.


- Low energy/water efficiency. Old fixtures cost more and fail to meet modern standards.

With Tom the Plumber, based in Hopewell Junction, we specialize in bathroom remodeling that fixes the root problem — not just the surface.

If your bathroom in Hopewell Junction, Wappingers Falls, Fishkill, Beacon, Pleasant Valley, Hyde Park, Pawling, Newburgh, Highland, or anywhere around Poughkeepsie feels outdated, cramped, or downright stressful to use, you’re not alone.

That’s exactly the problem we solve — reliably, affordably, and with zero guesswork.

Our 6-Step Remodeling Process (simple, reliable, local)

  1. Free Design Visit & Consultation — We meet at your home (Hopewell Junction, Poughkeepsie area, Beacon, etc.), review what’s working and what’s not, and discuss budget and timeline.

  2. Transparent Proposal — A clear price, a defined scope, and material selections so you know exactly what to expect.

  3. Permits & Prep — We obtain local permits and create a project schedule that minimizes disruption.

  4. Demo & Build — Skilled trades do the work: plumbing, electrical, framing, tile, and finishes — all coordinated by one project manager.

  5. Inspection & Finish — Final inspections, punch-list fixes, and a client walkthrough.

  6. Follow-up & Warranty — We’re local — call us and we’ll come back to make it right.

Most full remodels are completed in a predictable number of weeks depending on scope — we’ll discuss the exact timeline during the estimate.
