We Wage War On Dust, And We WIN As Orange County Bathroom Remodelers

No Excess Dust. No Excess Debris. Ever.


Do you want to know what’s the largest contributor to homeowner dissatisfaction during a bathroom remodel? It’s dust. That’s right, dust!

The good news? There’s an Orange County bath remodeling contractor that protects your belongings throughout the demolition and installation process. And… it’s us – Shugarman’s Bath.

According to a recent article by “Remodeling By JLC,” 85% of homeowners say job site dust is the most serious inconvenience of remodeling.

This means that after the job, people are reporting that nothing is worse than a contractor who doesn’t protect your belongings from dust and debris. Not late arrivals. Not profanity. Not leaving trash behind. Part of why this is interesting is because it is not what comes to mind for many people before their remodeling job.

And here’s why: the impact of dust isn’t just “annoying” – it’s noticeable and can be long-lasting.

But we didn’t beat the dust monster by accident. We’ve spent years developing the best home protection procedures around.



Not Just A Nuisance…. There Are Many
Dangerous Downsides To Excess Dust

The average bath remodel produces tons of dust. Remodeling a bath or shower produces five to eight times the amount of particles in the air than homes that aren’t being remodeled – that’s a lot of dust. And much of it, you can’t even see… it’s too small (yet still impactful).

And there are consequences from excess dust and debris during your bathroom remodel, with some being more extreme than others. Some of the negative effects dust can have on your bath remodeling project are:

  • Allergies and respiratory issues can develop or worsen.
  • Impacting the quality of the contractor’s work (i.e. damaged paints, sealants, and other materials).
  • Damaged property (furniture, carpet, electronics, etc.) as the dust settles into areas it shouldn’t be.
  • Time-consuming delays as the demolition and installation crew must constantly clean up the excess dust they cause.

The fact is most contractors either don’t understand how negatively impactful dust is during a bath remodel or they don’t care. At Shugarman’s Bath, we understand the detrimental effects and make sure dust doesn’t impact your bath remodeling project.


Dust Barriers, Protective Coverings, And HEPA Equipment
– We Wage War On Dust, And We WIN

At Shugarman’s Bath, our installers are factory-trained and certified. Our team is trained in the proper use and installation of dust barriers and HEPA filter equipment. Now, most jobs don’t require HEPA, but if they do, we have you covered.

We also take several additional measures, far beyond what is required or what other bath remodelers may do.

Specifically, on every job, we:

  • Cover your toilets with Toilet Armor
  • Cover your floors from your tub or shower to your entry door
  • Set up dust barriers to keep dust contained in the work area
  • Cover the countertops, lights, and mirrors in your bathroom to protect them
  • Cover the HVAC vents in your bathroom to prevent dust from getting into your HVAC system and circulating throughout your home

As a result, your home remains free from dust pollutants, your toilet remains in the same condition, and your floors from your tub or shower to your entry door are all protected.

And every other important item inside your bathroom is well protected, too. At Shugarman’s, we leave nothing to chance.

That way, you don’t have to fear clogs from excess dust or stains caused by dust. And our highly effective dust barriers ensure pollutants never leave the bath or shower area, so the air quality throughout your home isn’t compromised.


Why Do We Go “Above And Beyond” To Protect
Your Home? Because We CARE

There’s a simple reason why we go above and beyond to protect your home in ways that others don’t – we care about you.

We care about your health.

We care about your belongings.

We care about your entire home.

So, although it creates more work for us to ensure your bathroom (and home) is optimally protected from dust and debris, it’s worth it. After all, it keeps you safe, comfortable, and with sound peace of mind.
