Girl Flip plans, permits and builds bathroom remodels for Glendale homeowners, from original bungalow baths to primary suites in hillside homes.
Glendale is full of homes from the 1920s through the 1950s, and a lot of them still have the bathroom they were built with. It is a small room with old tile, a tub-shower combination and a vanity with no real storage. The pipes behind the wall are often as old as the tile.
A bathroom remodel in Glendale is usually a full rebuild, not a cosmetic update. We open the walls, replace worn supply and drain lines, rebuild the shower or tub area with proper waterproofing, and finish it with tile and fixtures that suit the age and style of the house.
Girl Flip is a licensed, women-led, family-owned contractor. We handle the layout, plumbing, waterproofing, tile, vanity and fixtures, plus permits when they apply, so you deal with one team.
Looking at the whole house? See our Glendale home remodeling page. The citywide bathroom remodeling service page explains our full scope.
Every Glendale bathroom is scoped in writing after a walkthrough. These are the projects we plan most often here.

Explore →A walk-in shower opens up a small bathroom and is easier to live with. We rebuild the drain and valve, waterproof the pan and finish the tile and glass.
Explore →Hex floors, subway wall tile and classic fixtures suit a Craftsman or Spanish home. We also build clean, modern rooms when that is what you want.
Explore →Furniture-style and floating vanities, recessed niches and linen storage that make a small room work harder.
Explore →In larger and hillside homes, we update primary baths with bigger showers, double vanities and better lighting and storage.
Explore →A quiet, ducted fan and layered lighting, planned with the electrical rough-in so the room stays dry and bright.
Glendale is its own city, so permits go through the City of Glendale, not LADBS. Moving plumbing, changing a shower location or adding circuits generally needs a permit. A like-for-like vanity or toilet swap often does not. We handle the paperwork when a permit applies.
If your home sits in one of Glendale's historic districts, exterior changes can need review. A bathroom remodel inside the walls is usually less affected, but we confirm what applies to your address before you plan anything on the outside.
Houses from this era often have galvanized supply lines and cast-iron drains that are near the end of their life. Replacing them while the walls are open is usually cheaper than opening a finished bathroom later, and we flag likely replacements during the walkthrough.

A bathroom remodel starts with a discovery call and a walkthrough, then a written scope and estimate where you choose tile, fixtures and the vanity. A typical bathroom takes about six weeks to build once work starts, depending on scope and tile selections. Add time for design choices and, when a permit applies, permit review. We share a clear schedule before we begin and tell you what could change it.

In Pacific Palisades, we took a full gut bathroom, extended its footprint and built a palette of pastels and gold around it, with custom scalloped tile, curated fixtures and thoughtful lighting. It shows what a careful rebuild can do for a small, dated room.

A mid-range full bathroom remodel in Los Angeles commonly starts in the low tens of thousands of dollars, and an extensive gut-and-rebuild can reach the $30K to $50K range. These are general market ranges, not a quote. Moving plumbing, tile choices and shower size move the number most. Our remodel cost guide explains each factor.
In an older Glendale home, new supply and drain lines can add cost. We flag likely replacements during the walkthrough so they are in your budget from the start.
