Calacatta Porcelain Two-Bathroom Renovation in Queens

Marble-Look Porcelain, Brushed Gold, and Spa-Style Lighting

Project Overview

This Queens renovation was a complete gut remodel of two bathrooms in a private home, finished in two months. The primary bath is wrapped floor to ceiling in large-format Calacatta gold porcelain, with a fluted double floating vanity, brushed gold gooseneck faucets, and a walk-in shower behind a matte black frameless glass enclosure. The secondary bath pairs warm beige porcelain with a book-matched grey onyx accent wall, brushed gold fixtures, and a sliding glass shower door. Both rooms have linear drains, perimeter LED cove lighting, and new smart or bidet toilets. The work covered demolition, plumbing relocation, electrical, waterproofing, tile, custom glass, and finish carpentry.

Detailed Project Breakdown

Primary bathroom in Queens with Calacatta porcelain walls and floor, fluted double floating vanity, and brushed gold faucets

Calacatta Porcelain and Fluted Double Vanity

Large-format Calacatta gold porcelain runs floor to ceiling on every wall and across the floor. A double floating vanity in fluted cream sits under brushed gold gooseneck faucets and a recessed LED medicine cabinet, with a smart toilet alongside.

Walk-In Shower with Rain Head and Body Sprays

The primary shower has a matte black frameless glass enclosure, a ceiling-mounted rain head, a thermostatic body-spray system, a hex marble mosaic floor, and a linear drain. The existing glass block windows were kept and framed into the tile layout.

Secondary Bath with Onyx Accent Wall

Warm beige porcelain covers the floor and walls, with a book-matched grey onyx accent wall in the shower. Brushed gold fixtures, a sliding glass door, a floating white textured vanity, an LED-backlit mirror, and a bidet toilet complete the room.

Large-Format Marble Tile Installation

Floor-to-ceiling marble slabs were installed with carefully aligned veining to create a seamless, continuous look across walls and floors. Precision layout and waterproofing preparation ensured both visual impact and long-term durability.

Freestanding Soaking Tub & Brass Fixture Integration

A sculptural freestanding tub was positioned as a focal point, complemented by brushed brass plumbing fixtures. Proper rough-in plumbing and fixture alignment were completed to maintain both function and design balance.

Frameless Glass Shower with Built-In Bench

The walk-in shower features full-height marble walls, a built-in seating bench, pebble-style shower flooring for drainage, and frameless glass enclosure installation, delivering a clean, modern spa-like finish.

Two Bathrooms, One Consistent Finish

These two bathrooms share one design language. Large-format porcelain gives each room a seamless, stone-like surface without the upkeep of natural marble, while brushed gold fixtures carry through both spaces. Recessed LED cove lighting runs the full ceiling perimeter in each room, linear drains keep the shower floors clean and level, and frameless glass keeps the showers open. The result is a pair of bright, spa-style bathrooms built for everyday use in a Queens home.

FAQs About Two-Bathroom Renovation in Queens

  • Both bathrooms use large-format porcelain rather than natural stone. The primary bath has Calacatta gold marble-look porcelain on the walls and floor, and the secondary bath uses warm beige porcelain with a book-matched grey onyx accent wall in the shower. Porcelain gives the look of stone with less maintenance.

  • The primary shower has a matte black frameless glass enclosure, a ceiling-mounted rain head, a thermostatic body-spray system, a hex marble mosaic floor, and a linear drain. The existing glass block windows were kept and framed into the new tile layout.

  • Waterproofing membranes were installed in both showers before any tile went down, and linear drains were set to move water off the floor efficiently. This protects the framing and surrounding rooms from moisture over the long term.

  • Recessed LED cove lighting runs the full perimeter of the ceiling in both bathrooms. The primary bath also has a recessed LED medicine cabinet, and the secondary bath has an LED-backlit mirror.

  • The full renovation of both bathrooms took roughly one to two months. That covered demolition, plumbing relocation, electrical and lighting, waterproofing, tile installation, custom glass enclosures, vanity and fixture installation, and finish carpentry.
