The Right Image Approach

Burbank Baths,
Permitted Through Burbank

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

Full Scope,
Done Right the First Time

01

Tub-to-Shower Conversions

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.

02

Waterproofing Done Correctly

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.

03

Tile, Stone & Glass

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.

04

Vanities, Fixtures & Lighting

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.

05

Re-Plumbing Older Homes

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.

06

City of Burbank Permits

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

Old Homes,
Its Own City Hall

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

Burbank Bathroom
Cost Ranges

Project TierTypical RangeWhat'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.]

Burbank Bathroom FAQ

Questions We
Hear in Burbank

Do you handle the permits for a bathroom remodel in Burbank?+
Yes. Burbank is its own city, so bathroom plumbing and electrical work is permitted through the City of Burbank's Building Division, not through LADBS. Any time we move plumbing, add or relocate a shower, or touch electrical, that work is permitted and inspected on Burbank's schedule. We handle submission, corrections, and final sign-off; you never deal with the counter.
How much does a bathroom remodel cost in Burbank?+
Most Burbank bathroom remodels run from about $20,000 for a straightforward guest-bath refresh to $60,000+ for a full master-bath renovation with a curbless shower and relocated plumbing. A typical tub-to-shower conversion with new tile, vanity, and fixtures in a 1920s–40s home usually lands in the $25,000–$38,000 range. You get a fixed-price proposal after the on-site visit. All figures are estimates pending your consultation.
Can you convert a tub to a walk-in or curbless shower?+
Yes — tub-to-shower conversions are one of our most requested Burbank projects. We remove the old tub, reframe and waterproof the shower area, set a properly sloped curbed or curbless pan, and tile it with a linear or center drain. If you want a zero-threshold, aging-in-place shower, we build the floor and blocking to support grab bars and a bench.
Do the old pipes in Burbank's 1920s–40s homes need to be replaced?+
Often, yes. Many of Burbank's older Magnolia Park and traditional homes still have original galvanized steel supply lines that have corroded and lost water pressure over the decades. When we open the walls for a bathroom remodel, it's the ideal time to re-pipe the bathroom in copper or PEX. We assess the existing plumbing at the estimate and tell you honestly whether a re-pipe is worth doing while the walls are open.
How long does a bathroom remodel take in Burbank?+
A standard Burbank bathroom remodel runs about 3–5 weeks from construction start. A guest-bath refresh on the same footprint is faster; a full master with moved plumbing, a curbless shower, and custom tile takes longer. Because Burbank runs its own Building Division, we schedule the plumbing and final inspections on the city's calendar and build that into your committed milestone schedule.
Are you licensed and insured, and do you offer free estimates in Burbank?+
Yes on both. Right Image Builders holds active California license CSLB #1021284 with full liability and workers' compensation coverage. Our office is in Valley Glen, a short drive west of Burbank, so the on-site bathroom estimate is free and local — a senior team member comes out, not a call-center scheduler.
