Bathroom Remodel in Carlsbad
Planning a bathroom remodel in Carlsbad? Carlsbad stretches from older coastal neighborhoods near the Village to newer inland communities like La Costa and Aviara. Proactive Edge Developments is a CSLB-licensed San Diego County general contractor. We remodel bathrooms end to end, handle the City of Carlsbad permit process, and include a free 3D rendering so you see the result before we start.
Permits for a bathroom remodel in Carlsbad
Carlsbad lays out its ADU standards in Information Bulletin IB-111 and offers free Permit Ready ADU plans. Lots in the coastal zone may also need a Minor Coastal Development Permit. Source: City of Carlsbad, ADU Information Bulletin IB-111.
Coastal Zone: parts of Carlsbad are inside the California Coastal Zone. Projects there can need a coastal development permit on top of the building permit, which adds review time. We check your parcel before design starts.
We prepare the plan set, submit it, answer plan-check corrections, and schedule every inspection through final sign-off.

- Free 3D rendering. Visualize your new bathroom before construction begins.
Featured project: the Curlew St lot split
At 3680–3682 Curlew St in San Diego, we added a second story to the main house and converted the garage into a separate unit. The owner now has two rentable addresses on one lot. It's the project we point Carlsbad homeowners to first, because it shows our permitting, structural, and finish work in one place.
