Complete Commercial Bathroom Renovations
A complete renovation allows the layout, fixtures, finishes, plumbing, lighting, and accessibility features to be evaluated together. This is often the best solution for older restrooms that have extensive wear, outdated materials, recurring maintenance concerns, or layouts that no longer serve the facility effectively.
Gercken Construction Services can coordinate the different phases of the renovation and help keep the project organized from demolition through completion.
Employee Restroom Remodeling
Employee restrooms affect workplace comfort, cleanliness, and the overall impression employees have of their facility. An outdated or difficult-to-maintain restroom can become a recurring concern for both staff and property management.
Employee restroom renovations may include durable flooring, new partitions, updated plumbing fixtures, improved lighting, better ventilation, accessible features, and finishes selected for easier cleaning and long-term performance.
Customer and Guest Restroom Remodeling
A commercial restroom contributes to a visitor’s overall impression of a business or organization. Clean, attractive, and functional facilities demonstrate attention to customer comfort and property maintenance.
We remodel customer and guest restrooms for offices, churches, retail environments, recreational facilities, and other commercial properties throughout the Kansas City area.
ADA Accessibility Improvements
Commercial restroom accessibility requires careful planning. Door clearances, accessible routes, fixture placement, turning space, grab bars, accessories, toilet compartments, sinks, and other elements may all affect the final design.
Gercken Construction Services can incorporate accessibility improvements into the remodeling plan and coordinate work based on the project design, applicable building requirements, and local permitting process. Because requirements can vary by facility and jurisdiction, accessibility details should be evaluated for each individual project.
Commercial Shower and Bathing Facilities
Some commercial and recreational properties require more than a standard restroom. Gercken Construction Services can also renovate or construct commercial shower, changing, and bathhouse facilities.
These projects may include:
- Private or shared showers
- Changing areas
- Accessible bathing facilities
- Durable wall and flooring systems
- Moisture-resistant materials
- Improved ventilation
- Benches, grab bars, and accessories
- Plumbing and drainage improvements
Commercial Properties We Serve
Churches and Places of Worship
Church restrooms must accommodate regular services, special events, children, families, older adults, and visitors. Remodeling can improve appearance, accessibility, durability, and ease of maintenance while respecting the organization’s budget and schedule.
Gercken completed men’s and women’s restroom improvements for a Kansas City-area church, including countertops, faucets, partitions, flush valves, floor tile, wall tile, grab bars, and restroom accessories. View the Liberty Church Bathroom Remodel
Offices and Corporate Facilities
Warehouses and Industrial Facilities
Restrooms in warehouses, distribution centers, and manufacturing buildings often experience heavy daily use. These spaces benefit from commercial-grade fixtures, durable surfaces, practical layouts, and materials that are easy to clean and maintain.
Gercken’s project portfolio includes commercial bathroom work for a distribution facility and a Blue Springs machine shop. View the Staples Distribution Bathroom and Breakroom Remodel or the Blue Springs Machine Shop Bathroom Remodel.
Recreational Facilities, RV Properties & Pool Bathroom Additions
Campgrounds, RV facilities, and recreational properties may need restrooms, showers, changing rooms, or complete bathhouse facilities. These projects require careful consideration of moisture, traffic, privacy, accessibility, ventilation, and long-term durability.
Retail and Customer-Facing Businesses
For customer-facing businesses, restroom conditions can directly affect how visitors perceive the entire property. Updated fixtures, lighting, finishes, and accessibility features can create a cleaner and more welcoming environment.

Benefits of Remodeling a Commercial Bathroom
A properly planned commercial bathroom renovation can provide several long-term benefits.
Improve the User Experience
Clean, functional restrooms provide a better experience for employees, customers, tenants, guests, and visitors.
Reduce Maintenance Concerns
Replacing worn fixtures, damaged flooring, outdated partitions, and difficult-to-clean surfaces can make ongoing facility maintenance more manageable.
Improve Accessibility
A remodel provides an opportunity to evaluate existing barriers and incorporate appropriate accessibility improvements into the project.
Create a More Professional Appearance
Restrooms are part of the overall condition and presentation of a commercial property. Updated facilities can reinforce a positive impression of the business or organization.
Choose More Durable Materials
Commercial-grade fixtures and finishes can be selected for frequent use, cleaning requirements, moisture exposure, and long-term performance.
Address Aging Plumbing and Building Components
Opening walls and floors during a renovation may reveal plumbing, ventilation, water damage, or other conditions that should be addressed before new finishes are installed.

Commercial Bathroom Remodeling FAQs
How much does a commercial bathroom remodel cost?
The cost depends on the restroom’s size, number of fixtures, existing conditions, accessibility requirements, plumbing changes, selected materials, and overall scope. Updating finishes and fixtures generally costs less than changing the layout or completing a full renovation. An on-site evaluation is usually needed to develop meaningful project pricing.
How long does a commercial bathroom renovation take?
Timelines vary based on project size, material availability, permitting, inspections, plumbing or electrical changes, and whether work must be completed in phases. A smaller update may take considerably less time than a complete multi-restroom renovation.
Can you remodel bathrooms while our business remains open?
In many cases, yes. The project may be phased or scheduled so another restroom remains available. The best approach depends on the building, operating hours, and number of available facilities.
Can you help make an existing commercial restroom more accessible?
Accessibility improvements can be incorporated into a commercial restroom remodel. The existing layout, accessible route, doorways, clearances, fixtures, grab bars, counters, accessories, and applicable requirements must be evaluated for the specific facility.
Do commercial bathroom remodels require permits?
Permits may be required when a project includes plumbing, electrical, structural, layout, occupancy, or other regulated changes. Requirements vary by municipality and project scope. Required permits and inspections should be identified during planning.
Can you remodel employee and public restrooms?
Yes. Commercial remodeling can include employee-only restrooms, public restrooms, customer facilities, showers, changing rooms, and bathhouses.
Can the restroom be remodeled in phases?
Many projects can be divided into phases, particularly when a building has multiple restrooms. Phasing can help maintain restroom access and reduce disruption to employees, customers, or visitors.
What types of commercial properties do you work with?
Gercken Construction Services works with businesses, churches, offices, warehouses, industrial buildings, recreational facilities, and other commercial properties in the Kansas City area.
What should we prepare before requesting an estimate?
It is helpful to provide the property address, number of restrooms, approximate age and condition of the facilities, desired improvements, photographs, scheduling concerns, and an anticipated budget range. Gercken also provides a dedicated commercial project inquiry form.
