We drive the other way — NW Homeworks is based right here, and the trophy in this photo says so: our 2026 Chrysalis Award is engraved “NW Homeworks, Tacoma, WA.” It’s a national remodeling honor, with entries from across the country and just one national and three regional winners per category. Here’s the story of the bathroom that won it.
We handle every trade in-house — framing, electrical, plumbing, tile, cabinetry, and finish carpentry. One contractor, one crew, one point of contact, and no gaps between subs. That’s how 500+ projects across Puget Sound have gotten built.
The kitchen at the top of this page shows the kind of transformation we love: a deep blue island wrapped in waterfall quartz, flat-panel cabinets to the ceiling, and dark plank floors that ground the whole room. Modern where it counts, warm where it matters.
And when the right answer is taking a room down to the studs — like the project in this photo — that’s work we do with our own crew, not a rotating cast of subcontractors. Demo, framing, rough-in, and finish all under one roof means the schedule holds and nothing gets lost in translation. See our full kitchen remodeling services →
The master bath above was built just across the Narrows in Gig Harbor: marble tile from floor to ceiling, a walk-in shower with a linear drain and rain head, and a walnut double vanity with wall-mount faucets. You can see the whole project in our Gig Harbor master bath gallery.
Bathrooms are where in-house trades matter most. Plumbing, electrical, waterproofing, tile, and glass all have to come together in a few dozen square feet, and when one crew does all of it, nothing falls through the cracks. See our full bathroom remodeling services →
Tacoma’s best neighborhoods — the North End, Proctor, the Stadium District — are full of homes that are pushing a century old, and they deserve better than a gut-everything approach. This 1930s bathroom is a favorite of ours: we kept the original console sink and nickel hardware, restored the mosaic floor, and did the modern plumbing work where it belongs — out of sight.
Knowing what to keep is as much a skill as knowing what to replace. If you’ve got an older Tacoma home with good bones, we’ll help you draw that line. See our full range of services →
