University Place has some of the best views in Pierce County — but step inside many of its homes and you’ll find bathrooms that haven’t changed since the 1970s. Much of the city’s housing stock went up in the 1960s through the 1980s, which means original tubs, dated tile, undersized vanities, and fans that never quite kept up with our damp Puget Sound climate.

Magenta Home Services remodels bathrooms for University Place homeowners who want the work done right — proper waterproofing, clean tile lines, and a crew that communicates from demo day to final walkthrough. From ramblers off Bridgeport Way to view homes near Day Island and Sunset Beach, we bring the same standard to every project: craftsmanship you can count on and pricing you understand before we start.

Whether you’re refreshing a guest bath or rebuilding a primary suite from the studs out, we handle every stage of the project in-house:

• Custom tile showers and tub-to-shower conversions
• Vanities, countertops, and built-in storage
• Flooring, lighting, and upgraded ventilation — essential in Western Washington’s wet months
• Walk-in showers and accessible, aging-in-place upgrades
• Repairs to hidden problems we uncover, like dry rot, failed subfloors, or corroded plumbing
• Complete bathroom renovations, start to finish

Bathrooms are the least forgiving room in the house. Sloppy waterproofing hides for a year or two, then shows up as soft drywall, cupped flooring, or mold behind the tile — a real risk in a climate that stays damp from October to May. We build every shower with proper moisture protection and vapor management, so the work still looks and performs like new a decade from now.

You also get one point of contact from your first call to the final walkthrough. No handoffs between subcontractors who don’t talk to each other, no surprise change orders. We put the scope and price in writing before demo starts, and if we find something behind the walls — common in University Place’s older homes — we show you photos and options before touching it.

Because bathroom remodels in Washington typically involve plumbing and electrical work, most projects require permits through the City of University Place. We handle that paperwork and build to current code, including the ventilation and GFCI requirements older bathrooms rarely meet.

University Place is compact, but its housing varies street by street — and so does the remodeling work it needs. We remodel bathrooms across the city, including:

• Day Island and Sunset Beach — waterfront and view homes where moisture control and ventilation matter even more than usual
• Chambers Creek and Chambers Bay — established homes near the golf course and Chambers Creek Regional Park, many ready for primary-suite upgrades
• Beckonridge and Regents Park — 1980s and ’90s two-stories where original builder-grade bathrooms are reaching the end of their life
• The Bridgeport Way corridor and Town Center area — ramblers, split-levels, and newer townhomes alike
• The Fircrest border and Curtis area — mid-century homes with charming bones and 60-year-old plumbing

We’re based in Pierce County and work here every week, so scheduling is straightforward and we’re nearby if you ever need us after the project wraps.
