The Right Image Approach
A bathroom is the least forgiving room in the house — behind the tile is waterproofing, slope, and plumbing that has to be right the first time. In Burbank there's a second layer: the permitting runs through the City of Burbank's own Building Division, not LADBS, and a contractor who assumes the LA process finds out mid-job. We've worked Burbank for over a decade and know its counter.
The homes make the work interesting. Magnolia Park and Burbank's traditional streets are full of 1920s–40s Spanish and traditional houses with small, original bathrooms — often still running corroded galvanized supply lines and venting that never worked right. A Burbank bathroom remodel is usually two jobs at once: the walk-in shower and clean finishes you want, plus the quiet plumbing and framing fixes the last owner tiled over.
Everything happens under one roof — demo, waterproofing, plumbing, tile, glass, and finish — with one crew, one fixed-price contract, and one point of contact. And every permit is pulled through the City of Burbank and closed with a signed final inspection, so the work is legal and documented.

What We Build
The signature Burbank bathroom project. We pull the old tub, reframe and waterproof the shower, set a properly sloped curbed or curbless pan, and tile it with a linear or center drain — plus niches, benches, and blocking for grab bars if you want it aging-in-place ready.
Where corners get cut and ceilings leak. We use proper hot-mop or sheet/liquid membrane systems, correct pre-slope under the pan, and proper curb and niche detailing — the invisible layer that decides whether a bathroom lasts 20 years or 2.
Porcelain, natural stone, handmade ceramic, zellige, and full-height shower walls — installed by our in-house tile crew with proper edge and transition systems. Frameless glass enclosures templated and installed to fit.
Floating or freestanding vanities, quartz or stone tops, undermount sinks, comfort-height toilets, and layered lighting with proper GFCI-protected circuits and exhaust ventilation sized to the room.
With the walls open, it's the moment to replace tired galvanized supply lines in Burbank's 1920s–40s homes with copper or PEX, update the drain and vent, and move plumbing to support a new layout — restoring water pressure the old homes lost.
All plumbing and electrical permitted through the City of Burbank Building Division and carried to signed-off final inspection. We handle submission and corrections so the finished bathroom is fully legal.
Building in Burbank
Two things define a Burbank bathroom remodel. First, the permitting: Burbank is its own incorporated city, so every plumbing and electrical permit runs through the City of Burbank's Building Division — its own plan check, fees, and inspectors, entirely separate from Los Angeles. A crew that only knows LADBS will stumble here; we don't.
Second, the housing stock. Magnolia Park and Burbank's traditional neighborhoods are full of 1920s–40s Spanish and traditional homes with small original bathrooms — charming, but often hiding corroded galvanized plumbing and venting that never reached the exterior. The Rancho District, Burbank's equestrian enclave, and the Media District near the studios each bring their own character, but the bathrooms share the same age-related surprises behind the wall.
The honest Burbank conversation is always about what's worth doing while the walls are open — re-piping, adding real ventilation, correcting framing. We fold those into the fixed price up front. Based a short drive west in Valley Glen, Burbank is home turf, and we permit it correctly the first time.
What It Costs
| Project Tier | Typical Range | What's Involved |
|---|---|---|
| Refresh | $20K–$30K | Same footprint: new tile, vanity, toilet, fixtures, and lighting — a guest or hall bath brought fully up to date. |
| Tub-to-Shower | $25K–$38K | Remove the tub, build a waterproofed walk-in or curbless shower, new tile, glass, and vanity — often with local re-piping. |
| Master Renovation | $38K–$60K+ | Reconfigured layout, relocated plumbing, curbless spa shower, double vanity, custom tile, and full electrical and ventilation upgrades. |
Ranges are typical Burbank estimates for planning only and depend on scope, finishes, existing conditions, and City of Burbank permit requirements. Your fixed-price proposal is set after the free on-site consultation. [VERIFY — owner to confirm current cost ranges before publish.]
