Bathroom Remodeling Contractor in New Canaan, CT
D-Core Construction LLC is a bathroom remodeling contractor serving New Canaan, CT, for traditional houses and the town's well-known midcentury modern homes alike. We remodel the full room: shower or tub, vanity, tile, waterproofing, ventilation and lighting, with plumbing changes coordinated within the project. Owner Felipe Perri and his team bring 15+ years of experience to the work.
Every house asks for a different bathroom. In a traditional home, that may mean classic tile patterns and framed mirrors. In a modern one, it might mean large-format tile, a floating vanity and clean lines with no visible trim. We help match the bathroom to the house so the remodel feels like it belongs there. The plumbing and waterproofing behind those finishes are the same either way; only the look on the surface changes.
We sequence the job so each layer gets checked before the next one covers it. Rough plumbing and wiring are inspected, the shower waterproofing is checked, and only then does tile start. It is slower than rushing to the finish, and it is why the bathroom keeps working years later. Each inspection is a checkpoint for us as much as for the town, and we treat it that way.

Bathrooms in New Canaan's Modern and Traditional Homes
New Canaan is known for midcentury modern architecture. In the 1940s, a group of architects linked to Harvard's Graduate School of Design, known as the Harvard Five, settled in town, and Philip Johnson's Glass House, completed in 1949, is now open for tours. Remodeling a bathroom in a house from that tradition calls for restraint: keeping the proportions and simple lines while replacing tired plumbing and finishes.
New Canaan's Building Department is on the lower level of Town Hall, 77 Main Street, and enforces the state building code, since the town has no local building codes of its own. Permits can be started through the town's online permitting service.

Questions About Bathroom Remodeling in New Canaan, CT
Can you remodel a bathroom in a midcentury modern house without losing its character?
Yes. We start by noting what defines the room, such as its proportions, window placement or built-ins, and plan around keeping it. New plumbing, waterproofing and ventilation go behind the walls, and finishes are chosen to fit the original design.
Does New Canaan have its own building code for remodels?
No. The Building Department enforces the Connecticut State Building Code and has no local codes specific to the town. The office is at Town Hall on Main Street, and the town also offers online permitting.
What happens at the first visit?
We look at the bathroom with you, measure it and talk through what you want changed. Where we can, we check plumbing access, the fan and the condition of the floor. The estimate comes from that conversation and what we saw.
Is large-format tile a good idea in a small bathroom?
Often it is. Fewer grout lines make a small room look calmer and are easier to clean. It does need a very flat floor and wall, which is why surface prep is part of every tile job we do.
