From builder-grade to built-for-you. Walk-in showers, custom tile, heated floors, and full primary suite renovations. Led by owner and licensed general contractor Jason Neu.
Schedule Your Free Bathroom ConsultationNaperville's bathrooms have a specific problem. They are not crumbling 1960s bathrooms with cracked tile and rusted fixtures. They are 1990s bathrooms that were built to the builder-grade standard of their era. Basic ceramic tile surrounds. Single vanities with cultured marble tops. A tub/shower combo behind a clear glass slider or shower curtain. A single vanity light above the mirror. A loud exhaust fan. Beige everything.
These bathrooms still function. But function is not the issue. The issue is that Naperville homeowners with household incomes above $148,000 and homes valued between $500,000 and $1 million are using bathrooms that feel like they belong in a home worth half as much. The primary bathroom, the room you start and end every day in, should reflect the quality of your home and your community. In most Naperville homes built during the 1990s expansion, it does not.
A bathroom remodel in Naperville closes that gap. New tile replaces the builder ceramic. A walk-in shower replaces the tub/shower combo. A double vanity with stone countertops replaces the single cultured marble vanity. Heated floors, layered lighting, frameless glass, and proper ventilation transform the room from something you tolerate into something you look forward to using.
LuxeLine Remodeling builds bathrooms at that level. Jason Neu, the owner and licensed general contractor, leads every bathroom project from consultation through final walkthrough.
Many 1990s Naperville primary bathrooms were designed around a large jetted tub that takes up a third of the room and rarely gets used. Removing the jetted tub and reconfiguring the layout to support a larger walk-in shower, a freestanding soaking tub in a better position, or a double vanity with actual counter space can fundamentally change how the room functions. Layout changes require plumbing relocation and sometimes structural modification, both of which LuxeLine coordinates as part of the project.
The walk-in shower has replaced the tub/shower combo as the feature that defines a modern primary bathroom. We build curbless and curbed walk-in showers with frameless glass enclosures, built-in niches, bench seating, rain showerheads, handheld sprayers, and body jets. Proper waterproofing (liquid membrane systems and pre-formed shower pans) is the most critical element of any shower installation, and it is something we never shortcut.
Single vanities with cultured marble tops were standard in 1990s Naperville bathrooms. We replace them with double vanities featuring natural stone or engineered quartz countertops, undermount sinks, and custom or semi-custom cabinetry. Drawer organizers, pullout trays, and built-in electrical outlets inside drawers make the vanity functional for two people, not just one.
The tile sets the visual tone of the bathroom. We install floor tile, wall tile, shower wall and floor tile, accent bands, and stone surfaces. Options include porcelain, ceramic, natural marble, travertine, and large-format panels. Proper substrate preparation and waterproofing in wet areas are essential for results that hold up rather than cracking, shifting, or developing grout failures within a few years.
Radiant floor heating is one of the most requested features in Naperville bathroom remodels. Electric radiant heat mats installed under tile flooring with a dedicated thermostat transform the experience of the room, especially from November through March. The system adds minimal thickness to the floor and operates efficiently.
For homeowners who want a soaking tub, a freestanding model positioned as a focal point is a more effective use of space than the built-in jetted tubs that were standard in 1990s Naperville homes. We handle plumbing for freestanding tub fillers and floor drains, and advise on placement that balances visual impact with practical use.
Most 1990s Naperville bathrooms have a single strip light above the vanity mirror and a noisy builder-grade exhaust fan. A properly designed bathroom uses layered lighting: recessed ceiling fixtures, vanity sconces or backlit mirrors, and accent lighting in shower niches or under floating vanities. Ventilation is upgraded to a properly sized, quiet exhaust fan that prevents moisture buildup and protects finishes long-term.
Moving from a single to double vanity, relocating the shower, or adding a freestanding tub requires significant plumbing changes. We coordinate all drain lines, supply lines, and vent stacks before finish materials go in, with pressure testing and inspection before walls close up.
GFCI outlets at all required locations, dedicated circuits for heated floors, wiring for vanity lighting and shower lighting, and pre-wiring for heated towel bars or smart mirrors. 1990s Naperville homes generally have adequate electrical panels, but circuit layouts often need reconfiguration for a modern bathroom.
Jason visits your Naperville home, walks your bathroom, measures the space, and listens to what you want to change. You leave with a written scope outline, a ballpark budget range, a proposed timeline, and Jason's direct phone number. He follows up within 24 hours with everything in writing.

We pull permits through the City of Naperville, order materials, confirm lead times, and build a detailed construction schedule.
Jason manages every trade: demolition, rough plumbing, electrical, waterproofing, backer board, tile and stone installation, vanity and countertop installation, fixture setting, lighting, painting, and hardware. We protect the rest of your home and clean up daily.
At each major phase (rough-in, waterproofing, tile layout, fixture placement, final finishes) we walk you through the work and get your approval before proceeding.
We inspect every surface, grout line, fixture, and finish with you. If anything needs adjustment, we handle it before the project is complete. Your 24-month workmanship guarantee begins at this point.

LuxeLine provides a detailed construction timeline before work begins. If anything affects the schedule, you hear about it from Jason directly.
A bathroom that looks beautiful but leaks behind the walls or under the floor is a failure regardless of the tile selection. We use liquid membrane waterproofing systems, pre-formed shower pans, and proper drain assemblies on every wet-area installation. We pressure-test plumbing connections before walls close up. These are the details that separate a bathroom that lasts 20 years from one that develops mold in two.
Jason Neu leads every LuxeLine bathroom project. He is the licensed general contractor managing the trades, inspecting the waterproofing, checking the tile layout, and verifying that every fixture is set correctly. In a room where precision matters at every stage, owner involvement is not optional. It is what keeps the quality consistent.

In most 1990s Naperville primary bathrooms, yes. Jetted tubs were a standard builder upgrade in that era, but most homeowners report rarely using them. They consume significant floor space that a walk-in shower or freestanding soaking tub uses more efficiently. If the jetted tub occupies a third of your bathroom and you use it less than once a month, removing it is almost always the right move.
In a bathroom with tile or stone flooring, heated floors transform the daily experience of the room from November through March. The system adds a modest amount to the total project cost, operates efficiently with a dedicated thermostat, and is one of the most requested upgrades in Naperville bathroom remodels.
In most cases, yes. If your home has more than one bathroom, you use an alternate bathroom while the remodel is in progress. We protect adjacent areas from dust and debris and clean up daily.
Waterproofing. A bathroom that looks great but develops leaks behind the walls or under the floor will grow mold, damage framing, and require costly repairs. LuxeLine uses liquid membrane waterproofing systems, pre-formed shower pans, and proper drain assemblies on every project. We do not take shortcuts on the elements hidden behind the tile.
Yes. Bathroom remodels involving plumbing, electrical, or structural changes require permits through the City of Naperville Building Services Department. LuxeLine handles all permitting and coordinates with the city's inspection schedule.
Quartz is the most popular choice for Naperville bathroom vanities because it resists stains, does not require sealing, and is available in a wide range of colors and patterns. Natural stone (marble, granite) is also an option for homeowners who prefer a natural look, though marble requires periodic sealing and is more susceptible to etching from acidic products.
