Bathroom Remodel Before & After — Local Know-How
The "before" we see most in Barrington: barrington homes range from classic center-chimney Colonials and shingled Capes to mid-century ranches and waterfront properties around Nayatt Point and Rumstick. Many houses were built between the 1920s and 1970s, so original kitchens, small baths and dated mechanicals are common upgrade targets.
Low-lying neighborhoods near the bay and the Barrington River can see high groundwater and storm surge, so moisture management, flood-resistant materials and properly flashed exterior work matter here. Planning for these conditions from the start is what makes the "after" last.
Permits & Rules in Barrington
- Building permits in Barrington are issued by the town's building official under the Rhode Island State Building Code — we prepare the applications and schedule every inspection.
- Homes built before 1978 may contain lead paint, so renovation that disturbs painted surfaces follows Rhode Island and EPA lead-safe work practices.
- Waterfront and low-lying properties in Barrington can fall within FEMA flood zones or Coastal Resources Management Council (CRMC) jurisdiction, which affects footprints, elevations and materials.
