Project Overview
This Mesa master bathroom remodel is a perfect example of how a complete renovation can solve multiple problems at once—upgrading the shower, adding laundry functionality, and transforming the entire aesthetic of the space. The homeowners wanted to convert their underused bathtub into a spacious walk-in shower while also gaining a dedicated laundry area inside the master suite. Using our Virtual Showroom 3D design consultation, we worked through the layout and material selections before construction began, ensuring every detail was dialed in.
The tub-to-shower conversion replaced the old bathtub with a large walk-in shower featuring polished marble-look 12×24 tile installed in a vertical straight-lay pattern that runs all the way to the 9-foot ceilings—a bold design choice that draws the eye upward and makes the shower feel grand. On the shower pan, we installed 2×2 hex tile that complements the polished wall tile while providing excellent traction. Multi-function shower plumbing includes a rain head and a slide bar with handheld for maximum versatility.
Where the old shower once stood, we added a stackable washer and dryer—a game-changing addition that brings laundry into the master suite. We built a wall to the ceiling to enclose the space and installed a cabinet above the washer and dryer for additional storage. A large niche framed into the wing wall adds both visual interest and functional storage. We removed the existing soffits above the vanity and tub areas, opening up the ceiling and making the bathroom feel taller and more spacious.
In the vanity area, we saved the existing cabinets but replaced the countertop with a beautiful quartzite surface that elevated the entire look. We added power for LED mirrors above each sink and installed three pendant lights—one centered above each sink and one in the middle—creating balanced, layered lighting throughout the space. A rich navy blue paint color ties the whole design together, giving the bathroom a bold, sophisticated personality. Interested in a similar transformation for your Mesa home?

Why This Design Works for Mesa Homeowners
This project solves a challenge many Mesa homeowners face: how to maximize functionality in a master bathroom without adding square footage. By converting the old shower space into a stackable washer and dryer area and moving the shower to where the bathtub was, we completely reimagined the layout without changing the room’s footprint. The result is a master suite that now includes both a luxurious walk-in shower and in-suite laundry—two features that dramatically improve daily convenience.
The decision to run polished marble-look 12×24 tile in a vertical straight-lay pattern all the way to the 9-foot ceilings is a design statement that transforms the shower into the focal point of the bathroom. Vertical orientation draws the eye upward, emphasizing the ceiling height and making the shower feel expansive and luxurious. The polished finish reflects light beautifully, especially with the added can lighting above the shower. Pairing the polished wall tile with 2×2 hex tile on the shower pan creates a sophisticated contrast—the hex tile adds texture and visual interest on the floor while providing the grip needed for a safe, functional shower surface.
Removing the soffits above the vanity and tub areas was a strategic decision that opened up the ceiling and made the entire bathroom feel larger. Soffits in older Mesa homes often house outdated ductwork or were simply a builder shortcut—removing them reclaims that vertical space and gives the room a more modern, open feel. Combined with the tile running to the full 9-foot ceiling height, the bathroom now feels dramatically taller and more spacious.
The vanity approach on this project demonstrates smart budget allocation. By keeping the existing cabinets in good condition and investing in a beautiful quartzite countertop, LED mirrors, and pendant lighting, we achieved a high-end transformation without the cost of full cabinet replacement. The three pendant lights—one above each sink and one centered between—create a designer lighting layout that’s both functional and visually striking. The navy blue paint is a bold choice that gives the bathroom a rich, sophisticated character and pairs beautifully with the polished tile, quartzite, and pendant fixtures.
