Quality Construction and Remodeling Services in Leesburg

A bathroom is the least forgiving room in a Leesburg house, and the one most often remodeled by someone who treats it as a tile job.

Everything behind the finish surface is doing work. The substrate under a shower has to stay dry for thirty years. The slope of a pan decides whether water leaves or lingers. Ventilation decides whether the paint on the ceiling lasts or blisters. None of that is visible when the job is done, which is exactly why it gets skipped, and why so many bathrooms in Leesburg get remodeled twice inside a decade.

The two bathrooms in a typical Leesburg house also want opposite things. A secondary bath is a logistics problem. It serves two or three people on the same schedule, it needs to be durable and easy to clean, and it will never be admired, only relied on. A primary suite is the reverse. It is the one room in the house that exists for the two people who paid for it, and it is where a frameless door, a properly detailed niche, or a slab that runs unbroken up a wall changes how the room feels every single morning.

Older Leesburg houses near the historic core add a third problem. Many of them started with one bathroom and gained others through additions and conversions, so the plumbing takes routes that made sense to somebody in 1958 and make sense to nobody now. Moving a fixture in those Leesburg houses can mean opening a floor. We would rather find that during design than during demolition, so the survey work happens before you have committed to a plan.

Wayne Foley draws the room and Shawn Foley builds it, which keeps the detailing intact. Tile layout, niche placement, and the way a curb meets a threshold are decisions that get made twice on most jobs, once on paper and once badly in the field. Here they get made once.

If your Leesburg house has one working bathroom, tell us at the first conversation. Sequencing around a single bath is a real constraint, not a detail, and it belongs in the schedule from the start rather than arriving as an apology in week three. We will tell you how many days the room is genuinely out of service before you agree to anything.

Why Leesburg Homeowners Choose Us

Second-Generation Builders, Not a Sales Office

Shawn Foley has been on job sites for 35-plus years and his father Wayne handles design. The drawings and the build come from the same family, so what gets designed is what actually gets built.

You Always Know Where the Project Stands

Every client gets a portal with the schedule, selections, change orders, and daily progress. It is the thing our clients mention most, because knowing what happens next is most of what makes a build bearable.

We Build to a Standard, Not Just a Code

Code is the floor, not the target. We plan scope, materials, and budget before a single wall moves, so the number you approve is the number you plan against.

Our History in Leesburg

Leesburg is the seat of Loudoun County and its housing stock reads like a timeline. The blocks around the Loudoun County Courthouse and the Thomas Balch Library hold the oldest fabric, houses that were built before indoor plumbing was assumed and that acquired their bathrooms later, wherever a closet or a stair landing could be sacrificed.

That history is written into the walls. A bathroom carved out of a back bedroom in the 1950s sits on framing that was never sized for a cast iron tub, let alone a curbless shower with a mud bed. The waste line often runs an improbable route to reach a stack that predates it. None of this makes the work impossible, but it does make guessing expensive.

Further out, past Ida Lee Park and toward Morven Park, the mid-century houses arrive with their bathrooms in sensible places and their fixtures crowded into a footprint sized for a smaller household. East toward the Village at Leesburg and River Creek the baths are larger and the disappointments are different, usually a garden tub nobody has filled in years occupying the space a real shower should have. We have remodeled bathrooms across all three kinds of Leesburg house, and we scope them as the different problems they are.

We had 2 bathrooms redone by Foley Construction. 1st bathroom was hall bathroom. Complete gut. Everything from start to finish was perfect. In hall bath took pictures before Mirror and cabinet above tiller was installed. Next was our Masterbath. We did a complete gut and a total reconfiguration. Worked together to come up with an amazing bathroom. Shower doors for Masterbath had to be special ordered. So pictures reflect before doors being installed. Communication daily from the supervisor of the project. I couldn’t recommend them enough.

They did a great job renovating a kitchen and bathroom. They pay attention to detail and are very responsive. We liked their work, so we had them tackle a much bigger job for us--building a barn. The job was challenging because the access was limited. They fixed the access problem and designed and built a quality barn that meets our needs--and it looks great too!

I was very happy with the work of Foley Construction and Contracting. Shawn Foley was very responsive and professional. He managed the necessary contractors to complete a feature wall in living room which included installing reclaimed wood, lighting fixtures, moving of electrical outlets and cabinet installation. The work was excellent, on-time and looks phenomenal.

From design stages through completion we were fully informed throughout the process. Time lines & costs lined up as promised. High quality workers and attention to detail yielded beautiful results. I have been so pleased, I do not hesitate to recommend them to my friends.

Shawn and his team were great to work with. His team worked with me on a second floor renovation to my 100 year old house. New roof and added dormers. The online platform was extremely helpful, received daily updates with who was on-site with pictures of the work (very helpful because I would usually only be able to check at night). Project management per task, emails, invoicing, and messaging on the platform. Very slick interface was not expecting when working with a contractor. Extremely knowledgeable team and would give honest insight when some things I thought I wanted weren't worth it even though it would have netted them more profit. Honest and reliable, always available whenever I had any changes or ideas. Great to work with, 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking to do any type of home renovation (which is saying something with a century old house) and in this current market where getting anyone is hard to come by. So happy I found Shawn and his team!

Foley Construction finished a portion of our unfinished basement and converted it into a home gym space. The project consisted of building walls, insulation, electric, plumbing, HVAC, flooring, painting, crown molding, customer cabinetry and custom mirrors for the walls. The project was planned and executed as expected. His Project Managment Software Tool allowed us to select design options and make milestone payments upon completion. His team was very respectful, on time and highly professional. It was a fully turnkey solution aside from allowing us to pick recommended colors and design options. We wouldn’t hesitate to hire them for future projects.

Frequently Asked Questions - Leesburg Remodeling

We only have one bathroom. Can you still remodel it?

Yes, and it changes how we schedule rather than whether we take the job. A single-bath house means the room has to come back on line as fast as the work honestly allows, so we sequence materials and trades to compress the days it is out of service. We tell you that number before we start rather than after.

Can you move the shower, tub, or toilet?

Often, yes, though it depends on what is under the floor and where the waste line runs. In older Leesburg houses that answer is genuinely unknown until we look, so we investigate during design rather than pricing a guess. If moving a fixture turns out to be disproportionately expensive, we will tell you and show you what the layout can do without it.

What actually makes a bathroom last?

The parts you never see. Waterproofing behind the tile, a pan that drains where it should, blocking where fixtures mount, and ventilation sized for the room. Finishes are the part you choose. Substrate is the part that decides whether you are doing this again in eight years.

Do you do both secondary baths and primary suites?

Both, and we approach them differently. A secondary bath is built around durability and traffic. A primary suite is built around how the room feels to the two people using it every day. Same standard of work, genuinely different design conversation.
