A Granada Hills bathroom is usually a 1950s–60s hall bath or a primary bath built small for the size of the house, with galvanized supply lines, a cast-iron drain and a fan into the attic. The houses are big enough that the primary bath can grow: a closet or a few feet of a bedroom becomes the walk-in shower and the double vanity, and the slab floor decides how far the drain can move.
Behind the new tile, the Granada Hills house sets the scope. The plumbing is typically galvanized supply lines and cast-iron drains in the 1950s–60s houses, slab floors on the tracts, raised foundations on some of the older Chatsworth Street blocks. The waterproofing, the slope of the pan and the ventilation to the outside are what decide whether the room lasts, so our proposal prices the pan and the re-pipe before the finishes, and the electrical gets GFCI-protected circuits and a properly ducted fan on every job.
Our office is in Valley Glen, about 25 minutes away, so the project lead who does your estimate is on site through the 3–6 weeks the build takes, and most Granada Hills families stay in the home. On a sloped lot the staging and the carry-in are priced before the tile is.
The signature Granada Hills 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.
This is where corners get cut and ceilings leak. We use proper hot-mop or sheet/liquid membrane systems, sloped pre-slope under the pan, and correct 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, wall-hung or 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 with copper or PEX, update the drain and vent, and move plumbing to support a new layout — restoring the water pressure these older Granada Hills homes lost decades ago.
All plumbing, electrical, and shower work permitted through LADBS and carried to signed-off final inspection. We handle the submission and the corrections so the finished bathroom is fully legal and documented.
Granada Hills climbs from the flat tracts around Balboa Boulevard and Chatsworth Street up into Knollwood and the foothills north of Rinaldi, with Old Granada Hills and its walkable Chatsworth Street village on the west, Granada Hills Charter High School in the middle and O'Melveny Park, the city's second-largest park, at the top. Our office is in Valley Glen, about 14 miles south by the 405, a 25-minute drive, and the LADBS counter that reviews Granada Hills permits is the Van Nuys Development Services Center on Van Nuys Boulevard.
On the flat tracts around Balboa the project is the tub-to-shower conversion or the primary-bath renovation on a slab; on the older raised-foundation blocks near Chatsworth Street a relocated drain is crawlspace work instead of concrete, which gives the layout more freedom. In Knollwood the hillside houses add access and staging to the price, not the bathroom itself. Permits run through LADBS at the Van Nuys counter for plumbing and electrical, with the rough and final inspections scheduled around the build.
Plumbing and electrical work in Granada Hills is permitted through LADBS (City of Los Angeles) at the Van Nuys Development Services Center, with the rough and final inspections scheduled around the build so the schedule does not slip; every bathroom we build is permitted.

(818) 210-4544The team completely transformed our master bathroom. From the initial consultation to the final walkthrough, the communication was impeccable. They finished on time, on budget, and the craftsmanship is absolutely stunning. I've already referred them to three neighbors.
I had three contractors look at my bathroom before Right Image Builders. They were the only ones who came prepared with a real scope document and a fixed price. Six weeks later — my bathroom is incredible. The tile work alone is worth every penny.
Two bathrooms, new hardwood floors, kitchen cabinets, and a laundry room — all in one project. Right Image Builders coordinated everything flawlessly. They answered every text within the hour. This is how construction is supposed to work.
