Meet the Founder
David Montelongo, Founder
For David, remodeling has never been just about construction — it’s about understanding a home, seeing its potential, and creating spaces that add lasting value for the families who live there.
With over 35 years across construction, home remodeling, and real estate, David understands a house from the foundation to the roof. He’s built single-family homes and small apartment complexes from the ground up and led extensive renovations of existing properties.
As a licensed real estate professional and investor, he also helps homeowners think about where their remodeling dollars make the greatest impact — so a project doesn’t just look beautiful, it makes sense for the home’s long-term value.

Why Bathrooms?
A Deliberate Decision to Specialize
After decades working throughout the entire home, David chose to focus Bath By Design SA exclusively on bathrooms. Bathrooms are among the most detailed, technically demanding spaces in any home — plumbing, waterproofing, tile, electrical, cabinetry, fixtures, accessibility, layout, and design all come together in one compact space. We’d rather give these projects the specialized attention they deserve than try to be a company that does everything.













What Guides Our Work
Experience, Discipline & a Family Mindset
A Hands-On Approach
No one-size-fits-all remodels. We work with each client to understand their goals, explore layouts, and determine what makes the most sense for their home and investment.
Discipline in the Details
David has practiced Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for 15+ years. The consistency, patience, and accountability the sport demands are the same principles we carry into every project.
Family at the Core
A proud father of three, David brings a family-oriented perspective to the homes and families we serve — because great remodeling is, above all, personal.
Products and Brands We Trust
“Great remodeling is personal. It’s about listening to the homeowner, understanding the home, doing the job correctly, and creating a finished space that brings value for years to come.”
— David Montelongo, Founder
What Our Clients Say
Sara MTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. David and his team did a great job replacing my old worn out bathroom countertop! I called for several quotes and I was turned away from some places because I live in a condo or my job was just too small. But he came out and had great recommendations and options for us. I have a 10 foot vanity with 2 sinks so getting anything without a seam we knew would be difficult to get But the crew led by Gustavo were able to get it in there for us! Highly recommend these guys!! Dee BlackshearTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am so impressed with my new bathroom. This was an “add a bathroom” instead of remodeling. It was installed at the end of a long exercise room. Everything from the design to the actual construction was done professionally and with great care. He promised me the work would be completed in a month but took an extra 2 days as the vanity mirror was slowed in transit. When it arrived, the finish off was beautiful. The wait was worth it. David and his crew did a superb job. Sonia DominguezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Bath By Design did an incredible job transforming our master bathroom. The before-and-after photos speak for themselves — they took a dated space and turned it into a bright, modern bathroom that aligns perfectly with our aesthetic. The team was professional, communicative, and attentive to every detail. Their craftsmanship, from the tile work to the custom vanity, is truly impressive. We’re thrilled with the final result and highly recommend Bath By Design to anyone looking for a high‑quality, modern remodel. LEEROY JENKINSTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. David is truly a professional and I cannot thank him enough! I recommend this company to everyone RivetsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We first worked with David and Melina a few years back when their team assisted with correcting another company’s renovation mistakes. We were very pleased with the final outcome which made it an easy choice to go with Bath By Design for our next project. When we first started thinking about updating our fireplace, we knew we wanted something more modern, efficient, and low-maintenance than our old gas setup. The 1980’s brick surround felt outdated and heavy in our living room. After exploring a few options, we decided on converting the fireplace from gas to electric and updating the surround to a beautiful travertine finish—and the transformation has exceeded our expectations. From the very beginning, the process was clear, well-communicated, and within our price range. The team walked us through what the gas line capping and electric installation would involve, how the new unit would operate, and what design choices would best complement our space. The installation itself was surprisingly smooth and David was available to discuss any concerns. The team handled the gas disconnection safely, added the necessary electrical setup, capped the chimney, and installed the new electric fireplace with precision. The biggest visual change came from replacing the old brick with travertine. The tile team was phenomenal. We were able to choose the tone and pattern we wanted, and seeing it installed was like watching the entire room transform. The travertine instantly updated the space—lighter, more elegant, and visually seamless. It’s the kind of material and workmanship that makes the fireplace feel like a true focal point rather than an outdated feature. Overall, this fireplace conversion and surround update turned out even better than we imagined. It has added comfort, beauty, and value to our home, and the entire experience—from consultation to final installation—felt professional and stress-free. Keith GunterTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Outstanding and quick service. I was very impressed with their professionalism and their attention to detail.

I wanted a soaking tub for quite a while. Bath by Design SA made my dream come true. David and his team met all my expectations. His crew worked diligently from start to finish, they were professional and courteous during the entire process. They took great care by covering my floor, furniture and cleaned up before they left for the day. If you’re looking to remodel your bathroom I highly recommend Bath by Design SA. The first two are before pics the rest are after. clara-nicole sustaitaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. David has done several jobs in my home including remodeling my entire kitchen, repainting my downstairs, repainting exterior of my home, adding new ceiling fans, light fixtures, closing out a wall and building a closet to create a 4th bedroom. He got all the work done in the timeframe he promised and was always available and hands on. He’s very knowledgeable in what he does and I loved to hear his insight and recommendations for ideas I had for my home. I’ve recommended him to everyone I know and he’s been hired several times thru my referrals and high praise of him. I’ve recently hired him to model my entire 2 story home after a recent water loss and I look forward to him getting my house back to beautiful. There’s no one else I’d ever work with except him. I trust him and his team.Google rating score: 4.8 of 5, based on 18 reviews
