| Project direction | A good fit when | What to discuss at the visit |

| Update the existing bathroom | The layout works and you want to replace worn finishes, a vanity or fixtures. | What stays, what comes out, and whether the shower or tub enclosure will be rebuilt. |
| Rebuild the shower or convert a tub | The bathing area is your main priority. | Drain position, waterproofing, entry height, glass and the space available for the new shower. |
| Remodel the entire bathroom | You want a coordinated room, possibly with a new layout or a larger shower. | Fixture locations, ventilation, electrical work, storage and the condition of the walls and floor. |

Bathrooms have a lot of trades in a small space.
A bathroom packs plumbing, electrical, waterproofing, tile, glass and cabinetry into a few square feet. The most important work is the part you never see. If the waterproofing behind the tile is done wrong, the leak shows up years later in the ceiling below or in a soft subfloor.
We run bathroom remodels in Los Angeles from start to finish. Our crew plans the layout with you, builds the custom vanity and linen storage in our own shop, and does the plumbing, electrical, waterproofing, tile and glass under one fixed-price contract. We do walk-in shower conversions, full primary bath remodels and small powder rooms. Since we build the vanity ourselves, it's made for your wall, your plumbing rough-in and your countertop.

What we build
From powder rooms to primary suites.
Primary bathroom suites
A full gut and rebuild of the bathroom you use every day. Double vanities from our shop, freestanding tubs, layered lighting and a better layout when the original one doesn't work.
Walk-in showers & wet rooms
Tub-to-shower conversions, curbless entries, linear drains and full-height tile or slab walls. The waterproofing goes in first and gets checked before any tile.
Custom vanities & storage
Floating and furniture-style vanities, medicine cabinets and linen towers sized to your wall and plumbing. We plan the drawers around what you actually store.
Guest & powder baths
In a small room, guests see the tile, the fixtures and the finish work up close. Every guest uses the powder room, so we give it the same attention as a primary bath.
Choosing
Tub or shower, curb or curbless: how the options compare.
The choices that shape a bathroom, with what each one asks of the room and the permit.
| Option | Best for | Watch out for | Effect on schedule and permit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tub | Families with small children, soaking, and resale when it is the only tub in the house. | Takes the most floor space in a small bath, and a tub-shower combination means a curtain or a fixed panel. | Fixture replacement without wall changes stays on an Express Permit. |
| Walk-in shower | Daily use, small rooms, aging in place and a cleaner look. | Water control depends on the glass layout and the slope, and a wide opening needs a well-placed drain. | A tub-to-shower conversion moves the drain, so the floor is opened; no plan check unless walls move. |
| Curb | Standard framing and a simple way to keep water in. | A step at the entry, and the curb is a joint that has to be waterproofed carefully. | No effect on the schedule or the permit. |
| Curbless | Wheelchairs and walkers, a seamless floor, and small rooms that read larger. | The floor structure has to allow the recess or the slope. We check the joists or the slab before we promise it. | May add floor framing work; still no plan check if no walls move. |
| Tile walls | Any pattern or format, niches and benches, and repairs tile by tile. | Grout lines need cleaning and sealing, and small formats take more labor. | Standard install time; no effect on the permit. |
| Slab walls | Few seams, large-format porcelain or stone, and easy wiping. | Heavy panels need two installers and careful handling, and cut-outs for valves must be exact. | Fabricator lead time; no effect on the permit. |
| Framed glass | Lower-cost enclosures, tolerant of walls slightly out of square. | Metal frames collect water and soap, and the look dates. | Stock sizes can be quick; no effect on the permit. |
| Frameless glass | A clean, open look with thicker glass and minimal hardware. | Needs a true opening and a well-placed curb or channel. | Measured after tile and then fabricated, so it is the last item in; no effect on the permit. |
| Pressure-balance valve | Simple showers and tight budgets. | Holds the hot and cold ratio steady rather than the temperature, and the flow is tied to the temperature handle. | Standard rough-in; no effect on the permit. |
| Thermostatic valve | Showers with several outlets, families, and anyone who wants a set temperature. | Costs more and needs a second control for volume, and the rough-in has to match the trim. | Chosen before plumbing starts, since the rough-in follows the valve; no effect on the permit. |
No prices in this table: your written estimate prices the options you pick. The floor structure check for a curbless shower happens at the estimate visit.
Behind the tile
Waterproofing comes first.
When a bathroom fails, it's usually not the tile. It's what's behind it: a shower pan without enough slope, a torn or missing membrane, or board seams that were never sealed. The damage shows up years later as a stain on the ceiling below, a soft floor or mold.
Our crew has been setting tile since 2008. We take the shower down to a solid base and rebuild it in layers, and we check each layer before the next one goes on.
- 01 · Substrate
- Demo to studs and subfloor; repair framing and rot
- 02 · Plumbing
- Valve and drain set to the final tile layout
- 03 · Pan & slope
- Floor sloped to the drain so water can't pond
- 04 · Waterproofing
- Continuous membrane on floor, walls, niche and bench
- 05 · Tile
- Layout planned around niches and fixtures, then set and grouted
- 06 · Glass & trim
- Enclosure, caulk lines and fixtures
How it works
How your project runs.
Same five steps on every job, written down and shared with you before demo day.
See the full process →-
01
Free estimate visit
We come out, measure, look at the existing plumbing and wiring, and talk about what you want and what it should cost.
-
02
Plan & design
We draw the layout, help you pick materials and show it in 3D, so you know exactly what you're getting before anything is ordered.
-
03
Fixed price & permits
You get a written contract with a fixed price and schedule. We file the permits, and your cabinets go into production in our shop at the same time.
-
04
Construction
Your project manager runs the job, sends a written update every week and keeps the house protected and the site clean.
-
05
Walkthrough & warranty
We walk every room with you, finish the punch list and hand you a written 2-year workmanship warranty.
Written contract
One fixed price, written down before demo.
Your contract lists the scope line by line, with allowances for anything you have not picked yet and the exclusions named. The price changes only if you change the scope, and then only through a change order you sign before the extra work starts.
Payments follow the schedule in the contract: a deposit capped by California law, then progress payments tied to completed stages, each with a lien release. Nothing is billed ahead of the work.
- Scope
- Every line item written out: demolition, each trade, cabinets, counters, finishes and cleanup.
- Allowances
- Listed line by line for anything you have not picked yet, such as tile or a faucet. The difference is settled in writing.
- Exclusions
- Named in the contract, so nothing is assumed on either side.
- Change orders
- Only in writing, signed before any extra work starts, with the change in price and schedule.
- Payment schedule
- Follows B&P 7159.5: the deposit is capped at $1,000 or 10% of the contract price, whichever is less, and each later payment is tied to completed work.
- Lien releases
- Provided with each payment, so no supplier or trade can claim against your home.
Inspections
Which inspections happen, and when.
What the city checks at each stage of a permitted bathroom remodel, and what it looks like from your side of the dust wall.
| Stage | What the inspector checks | What you notice at home |
|---|---|---|
| Groundwork (only if the drain moves) | The new drain line under the slab or in the floor, before it is covered. | An open floor section until the inspector signs. Then the subfloor or slab is closed. |
| Rough | Framing, rough plumbing and electrical with the walls open, before backer board or drywall. | The shower stays at the framing stage until the sign-off. Our crew flood-tests the pan in the same window. |
| Final | Fixtures, the exhaust fan, outlets and the finished work against the permit. | The permit is closed. You get the inspection record with your warranty paperwork. |
Sources: LADBS Homeowners Guide to Permits and Inspections (groundwork, rough and final inspections; work is inspected before it is covered). Burbank, Glendale, Pasadena, Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, Culver City and Calabasas inspect under their own departments, and we confirm the sequence for your address before work starts.
Permits & rules
Bathroom remodel permits in Los Angeles.
Whether your bathroom remodel needs a permit, and which kind, depends on where you live and what changes. Here is how it works in Los Angeles. We confirm the exact path for your address before your estimate is final.
City of Los Angeles (LADBS)
- No structural changes: a residential bathroom remodel without structural changes is on LADBS's Express Permit list, so there is no plan check. Replacing plumbing fixtures and rewiring on existing circuits are on the list too.
- Walls or openings change: the online combined permit excludes changes to walls or openings. Those go to counter plan check with existing and proposed floor plans.
- Inspection: permitted work is inspected before walls are closed and at final.
Cities with their own building departments
Burbank, Glendale, Pasadena, Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, Culver City and Calabasas each issue their own permits, with their own rules and timelines. See your area page for local specifics.
California water-efficiency rules
- Homes built in 1994 or earlier: under SB 407 (Civil Code §1101.1 et seq.), a permitted remodel requires replacing non-compliant plumbing fixtures before final inspection. That means toilets over 1.6 gpf, showerheads over 2.5 gpm and faucets over 2.2 gpm.
- New fixtures must meet CALGreen maximums:
- toilets: 1.28 gallons per flush;
- showerheads: 1.8 gpm;
- bathroom faucets: 1.2 gpm;
- kitchen faucets: 1.8 gpm.
Your deposit is capped by law
For home improvement contracts in California, the down payment may not exceed $1,000 or 10% of the contract price, whichever is less (Business & Professions Code §7159.5). Our contracts follow that rule.

Cost
What a bathroom remodel costs in Los Angeles.
Our bathroom remodeling prices start at $15,000. Your price depends on your scope. We'll give you a range, then a fixed price after the visit and the 3D design, written into the contract before work starts.

Every project is different, so we don't use a price list. Tell us about yours and we'll give you a range that fits your home. It's free and takes about two minutes.
- A realistic range for your specific scope
- What will move your number up or down
- A first range from your answers, before any visit
What drives the cost.
- Layout & plumbing movesMoving the toilet, shower or sink adds rough plumbing, slab or subfloor work and more inspections. Keeping fixtures where they are saves the most.
- Tile & stone scopeFloor only or floor to ceiling, porcelain or natural stone or slab walls. More surface area and pricier material mean more labor and more cost.
- Shower glass & fixturesFrameless glass, thermostatic valves and designer fixtures cost a lot more than standard trim. We plan to the level you pick.
- Vanity & storage scopeOne custom vanity takes fewer shop hours than a full wall of storage. We build in-house, so there's no dealer markup on the cabinetry.
- What the walls are hidingOlder LA homes often have galvanized pipe, undersized circuits or old leaks. Where we can get access, we check during planning and price it up front.

Glossary
Words you will hear on a bathroom remodel.
The terms in your estimate, your contract and your inspection card, in plain words.
| Term | What it means |
|---|---|
| Shower pan | The sloped, waterproof floor of the shower under the tile, built so water runs to the drain. |
| Waterproofing membrane | A continuous sheet or liquid layer over the pan, walls, niche and bench that keeps water out of the framing. Tile and grout are not waterproof on their own. |
| Curbless | A shower with no step at the entry. The floor is recessed or sloped so water still runs to the drain, which is why the floor structure is checked first. |
| Linear drain | A long, narrow drain set along one edge of the shower. It allows a floor that slopes one way and works with large-format tile. |
| Thermostatic valve | A shower valve that holds the temperature you set when the water pressure changes. A pressure-balance valve only keeps the hot and cold ratio steady. |
| SB 407 fixture rule | In homes built in 1994 or earlier, a permitted remodel requires non-compliant toilets, showerheads and faucets to be replaced before final inspection (SB 407 analysis). |
Sources: SB 407 analysis (CSLB). The other terms are trade usage as we apply it on our jobs.
