Quick Answer

What does a bathroom remodel in Los Angeles include?

A full bathroom remodel with Girl Flip covers demolition, plumbing, waterproofing, tile, the vanity, fixtures, lighting and ventilation, plus permits when your plan needs them. Many bathrooms take about 5 to 10 weeks from the start of work, depending on scope and tile choices. It suits homeowners who want a licensed crew that gets the hidden work right. Homeowners search for a bathroom renovation in Los Angeles and an LA bathroom remodel interchangeably, and we scope both the same way: in writing, after a walkthrough.

Why Girl Flip

A bathroom remodeling contractor in Los Angeles that gets the hidden work right

Girl Flip is a licensed, women-led, family-owned remodeling company. Erica Anenberg, our general contractor and founder, and Beth Benson, our head of sales and operations, are on your project from the first walkthrough to the final one.

Bathrooms are small rooms with a lot going on behind the walls. Waterproofing, slope, venting and the rough plumbing decide whether a bathroom still looks good in ten years. We build those layers carefully before any tile goes up.

In a Pacific Palisades full-gut bathroom, we extended the footprint of the original room and built the design around a palette of pastels and gold, with custom tile and curated fixtures. In another project, we built a walk-in shower with a floating bench next to a cedar sauna. We hold CA contractor license #1091248 and a 5.0 rating across Google, Yelp, Sitejabber, ProvenExpert and BuildZoom.

What We Build

Bathroom remodeling services, from the first demo day to the last fixture

Every bathroom renovation in Los Angeles is scoped in writing after a walkthrough. Here is what that scope usually covers.

01

Tub-to-shower conversions

Replacing a tub with a walk-in shower is one of our most requested bathroom projects. We handle the demo, the new drain and valve, the pan and the waterproofing, and the tile.

Explore →
02

Custom tile showers

Curbless entries, niches, benches and glass are planned before the walls are opened, so the slope and the waterproofing are right the first time.

Explore →
03

Soaking and freestanding tubs

A freestanding tub needs the right floor support and a drain location that works. We confirm both before the tub is ordered.

Explore →
04

Bathroom tile

Floor and wall tile are set on a flat, prepared surface with clean grout lines, from small hex floors to large-format porcelain.

Explore →
05

Vanities and storage

Single and double vanities, floating vanities and built-in storage that fit the room and your morning routine.

Explore →
06

Counters and mirrors

Stone and quartz counters are templated and installed after the cabinets, with mirrors and sconces placed to match.

Explore →
07

Fixtures and lighting

Faucets, shower systems, towel warmers and layered lighting are chosen early, because the plumbing rough-in depends on them.

08

Ventilation and electrical

A quiet, properly ducted fan, GFCI outlets and dedicated circuits where needed. Good ventilation is what keeps a bathroom from growing mold.

Our Process

How a Los Angeles bathroom remodeling project runs, step by step

A bathroom is a small space with a tight sequence of trades, so the order of work matters. These are the five steps.

1

Discovery call

A short call about your goals, your timeline and your budget, and whether we are the right fit.

2

Walkthrough and quote

We measure the room, check access and the plumbing, and write a detailed scope and estimate. You choose tile, fixtures and the vanity at this stage.

3

Plans and permits

Moving a shower, adding a bathroom or changing plumbing and electrical usually needs a permit. We prepare the plans and handle the paperwork.

4

Build

Demo, rough plumbing and electrical, waterproofing, tile, vanity and fixtures. A typical bathroom takes about 5 to 10 weeks, depending on scope and tile selections.

5

Reveal

A final walkthrough and punch list, so everything works and looks right before we call it done.

Cost and Timeline

How much does bathroom remodeling cost in Los Angeles?

Bathroom remodels in Los Angeles start at $40,000. Pricing includes labor and construction materials only, and finishes are determined by your selections. These are general market ranges, not a quote. A walkthrough gives you a number that fits your home.

Bathroom projectWhat it usually involvesTypical range in LA
Bathroom remodelNew tile, vanity, fixtures and a tub or shower, with the scope and finish level depending on your selectionsStarting at $40,000
Bathroom in a full-home remodelBathroom plus other rooms, sometimes with an additionDepends on scope and your selections. Whole-home projects typically take 8 to 12 months

What changes the price

  • Moving plumbing. Relocating a toilet, shower or tub adds labor and sometimes floor work.
  • Tile and stone. Large-format slabs and detailed patterns cost more to buy and to set.
  • Shower size and glass. Frameless glass and bigger, curbless showers add cost.
  • Older homes. Galvanized pipe, outdated wiring and prior leaks often show up once walls open.
Materials and Options

Tile, vanities and showers: the choices that shape your bathroom

Tile, glass and plumbing fixtures can carry long lead times, and the shower valve has to be chosen before the walls are closed. We help you pick early so the crew is never waiting on a box.

In older Los Angeles homes, such as Spanish bungalows and mid-century ranches, the original single hall bathroom is often small and dated. Swapping the tub for a walk-in shower, adding a floating vanity and using large tile can make a small bathroom feel much bigger. In a primary suite, double vanities, a soaking tub and a larger shower are common asks.

Every choice has a tradeoff in cost, care and lead time. We price options clearly so you can trade one for another.

Permits

Do you need a permit for a bathroom remodel in Los Angeles?

In the City of Los Angeles, moving plumbing, adding circuits, changing a shower location or altering walls generally needs a permit from LADBS. Swapping a vanity or toilet in the same spot often does not. Neighboring cities such as Beverly Hills, West Hollywood and Santa Monica run their own building departments. For a local example, see how we plan bathroom remodeling in Sherman Oaks, where LADBS permits apply.

We tell you which category your plan falls into, and we handle the plans and permit processing when a permit applies. Our permit guide for California remodels explains what triggers one.

Bathroom remodeling Los Angeles FAQs

How much does bathroom remodeling cost in Los Angeles?
Bathroom remodels in Los Angeles start at $40,000. Pricing includes labor and construction materials only, and finishes are determined by your selections. Plumbing changes, tile, shower size and older-home surprises drive the number. We give you a real range after a walkthrough.
How long does a bathroom remodel take?
A typical bathroom remodel takes about 5 to 10 weeks of construction, depending on scope, tile selections and layout changes. Add time for design choices and, if your plan needs one, permit review. We share a clear schedule before we start.
Do I need a permit for a bathroom remodel in Los Angeles?
Usually yes if you move plumbing, change a shower location, add circuits or alter walls. In the City of Los Angeles that permit comes from LADBS. A like-for-like vanity or toilet swap often needs none. We tell you which applies and handle the permit when it does.
Can you convert a tub to a walk-in shower?
Yes. Tub-to-shower conversions are one of our most requested bathroom projects. We handle the demo, the new drain and valve, the waterproofing, the tile and the glass, and we plan the slope so water drains the way it should.
What is the process of hiring a bathroom remodeling contractor?
You start with a discovery call, then a walkthrough, a written scope and estimate, plans and permits, the build and a final reveal. You deal with the same team at every step, so decisions do not get lost.
How do I choose a bathroom remodeling contractor in LA?
Confirm the contractor is licensed with the CSLB, ask to see finished bathrooms, and ask how they handle waterproofing. Girl Flip is licensed (CA #1091248), women-led and shows real project photos. Compare written scopes, not only totals.
How do I find the best bathroom remodelers in LA?
Check the CSLB license, read reviews on several sites and ask each bathroom remodeler to show finished bathrooms and explain how they handle waterproofing. Girl Flip is licensed (CA #1091248), women-led and rated 5.0 across Google, Yelp, Sitejabber, ProvenExpert and BuildZoom.
What is the difference between a bathroom remodel and a bathroom renovation?
Homeowners use both terms for the same kind of work. A bathroom renovation in Los Angeles often means new tile, vanity and fixtures in the same layout, while a remodel may also move plumbing or change the shower. We scope both in writing after a walkthrough.
Do you offer bathroom remodeling in Los Angeles, CA?
Yes. Girl Flip is based in Canoga Park and remodels bathrooms across Los Angeles, CA and the San Fernando Valley. We start with a discovery call and an in-home walkthrough, then give you a written scope and estimate.
Will you handle the waterproofing properly?
Always. Proper waterproofing, slope and ventilation are what keep a bathroom from failing early, and we never cut corners there. We build and check those layers before any tile goes on.
Can I stay home during my bathroom remodel?
Most families can, especially with a second bathroom in the house. We plan water shutoffs, dust control and where the crew works so daily life stays manageable. If it is your only bathroom, we talk through options first.
Why choose a women-led bathroom remodeler?
Our clients tell us they feel heard. Erica and Beth run every project, communicate often and explain costs plainly. A licensed crew then does the work to the standard you see in our HGTV projects.
Do you remodel bathrooms in Sherman Oaks, Beverly Hills and Santa Monica?
Yes. We serve Sherman Oaks, Woodland Hills, Studio City, Encino, Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Santa Monica and Culver City, along with the rest of Los Angeles and the Valley. See the area links above for each page.
