Luxury Bathroom Renovation McLean
A Bathroom That Matches the House
The 1960s hall bath with its original tile becomes a room you would happily show guests. The primary bath grows into a true suite: a walk-in shower with frameless glass, a freestanding tub, a double vanity in custom cabinetry with quartz or stone on top, and lighting that flatters instead of glares. In a market where buyers compare everything to new construction, the difference is visible instantly. A renovated McLean bathroom reads current, not patched. And underneath, sixty-year-old plumbing and ventilation are brought up to today’s standards while the walls are open, so it performs like new construction too.
The primary bathroom photographed on this page is our own work: a dated primary bath rebuilt with a freestanding tub, a frameless glass shower, a custom grey double vanity and a hexagon tile feature wall. It is in Northern Virginia rather than McLean, and we say so, because you should be able to trust every photo on a remodeler’s site.
McLean Bathroom Remodeling Contractor
McLean Is the Most Demanding Market We Serve. We Live Here.
EA Home Design has designed and built bathrooms across Fairfax County since 2009, with nearly 2,000 remodels complete and 28 design awards. McLean is the most demanding market we serve, and we like it that way. It is also where our founder’s own family home is. He gutted and rebuilt its kitchen in 2025, which is documented in the McLean kitchen remodel case study, so we hold our McLean bathroom work to the standard we would accept in our own house. We are a licensed Virginia Class A contractor (#2705157182) with full insurance.
McLean is the region’s most active teardown market, which changes the remodeling question. If you own a mid-century home in Chesterbrook, Broyhill McLean Estates or McLean Hamlet, a serious bathroom renovation is one of the projects that keeps the house genuinely competitive: a home that lives at the standard of the street, rather than one being valued for its lot. And in newer construction around Langley Forest and downtown, we remodel builder bathrooms up to the standard the rest of the house was built to.
Bathroom Remodel Process McLean VA
From First Sketch to Final Fixture
It starts with a free in-home design consultation anywhere in McLean. We measure, assess what the structure and plumbing will allow, and listen to how you actually use the space, then design around that, not around a catalogue. You get a complete plan with 3D renderings and a guided materials selection: quartz and natural stone, custom bath cabinetry, tile, glass and fixtures, at our Sterling showroom or from samples we bring to you. Everything is chosen and priced before demolition, so the number you approve is the number you pay.
Construction runs through one project manager. McLean is unincorporated, so any bathroom that touches plumbing, electrical or structure is permitted and inspected through Fairfax County Land Development Services, and we handle both. Plumbing, electrical, waterproofing, tile and finish work are sequenced by our in-house team, and we protect floors and walkways so the rest of the house stays livable. Per Virginia law you start with just 30% down.

What We Build in McLean
Primary-suite renovations, walk-in showers, tub-to-shower conversions, custom vanities and bath cabinetry, quartz and natural-stone tops, heated floors, hall and guest baths, and accessible aging-in-place designs. Materials are a McLean specialty of ours: custom bathroom cabinetry built to the room rather than bought off a shelf, and quartz or marble counters fabricated to your layout. If you are adding a bathroom, a basement bath, or a suite over a garage, we handle the structural work and the Fairfax County permitting that comes with it.
We work throughout McLean, in ZIP codes 22101 and 22102: Chesterbrook, Broyhill McLean Estates, McLean Hamlet, Langley, Langley Forest, Salona Village, Kent Gardens, Franklin Park, Balls Hill, West Lewinsville Heights, Chain Bridge Forest, Potomac Hills, Kings Manor and the downtown neighborhoods. For a recent bathroom project from start to finish, read the Ashburn bathroom remodel case study, or browse our bathroom remodeling service areas. We also handle kitchen remodeling in McLean.
How long does a bathroom remodel take in McLean, VA?
Most McLean bathroom remodels take two to four weeks of construction. Primary suites with layout changes run four to six, and bathroom additions longer depending on the structural work. Design, Fairfax County permits and material ordering happen before demolition, and because every fixture, tile and cabinet is ordered in advance, the schedule we give you is the schedule we build to.
Is it worth remodeling a mid-century McLean home, or is it a teardown?
That is the McLean question, and the honest answer is that it depends on the house, and we will tell you which side of the line yours is on. Solid mid-century homes in Chesterbrook, McLean Hamlet and Broyhill McLean Estates are usually worth keeping and upgrading, and a primary bath rebuilt to a new-construction standard is one of the projects that keeps them competitive with the new houses on the street. If a house is only being valued for its lot, we will say so at the consultation rather than sell you a remodel.
Can you add a bathroom to our McLean home?
Yes. Bathroom additions, a basement bath, a suite over the garage, or carving a new bath out of underused space are structural projects, and that is our specialty. We handle the engineering, the Fairfax County permits and inspections, and the plumbing and electrical runs, with one in-house team from the first drawing to the last fixture.
Who handles permits and inspections in Fairfax County?
We do. McLean is unincorporated, so bathroom remodels that touch plumbing or electrical are permitted through Fairfax County Land Development Services, and additions need more. We manage the applications and coordinate every inspection, so you never deal with the county yourself.
Can we stay in our home during the remodel?
Almost all of our McLean clients do. We protect floors and walkways, contain dust to the work zone, and sequence the work so another bathroom is always available. For a primary-suite project we will tell you at the start which days involve the loudest work so you can plan around them.
Are the bathrooms in these photos in McLean?
No, and we would rather say so than pretend. The primary bathroom photographed on this page is an EA Home Design project elsewhere in Northern Virginia, rebuilt with a freestanding tub, a frameless glass shower and a custom double vanity. We do not use stock photography. Our founder’s own McLean home is documented in the McLean kitchen remodel case study, and we are happy to walk you through completed bathrooms in person before you decide.
