North Hollywood Bathroom Remodeling

The Right Image Approach

North Hollywood's Local
Bathroom Contractor

A bathroom is the most unforgiving room in a remodel. Behind the tile is waterproofing, slope, and plumbing that has to be right the first time — because when a shower pan is done wrong, you don't find out until there's water in the ceiling below. In North Hollywood, that risk runs higher than most, because the housing stock is old enough that what's behind the wall is rarely what you'd hope.

We're based on Burbank Boulevard in Valley Glen, minutes from North Hollywood, and we've remodeled bathrooms in these vintage 1920s–40s homes for over a decade. The original bathrooms here are small, tub-centric, and often still running on corroded galvanized supply lines behind plaster walls. Our job is usually two things at once: giving you the walk-in shower and clean modern finishes you want, and quietly fixing the plumbing and framing problems the last owner tiled over.

Everything happens under one roof — demo, waterproofing, plumbing, tile, glass, and finish. One crew, one fixed-price contract, one point of contact. And every permit is pulled through LADBS and closed with a signed final inspection, so the work is legal and documented, not a hidden liability when you sell.

What We Build

Full Scope,
Done Right the First Time

Tub-to-Shower Conversions

The signature North Hollywood 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.

Waterproofing Done Correctly

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.

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. A great match for NoHo's arts-district character.

Vanities, Fixtures & Lighting

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.

Re-Plumbing & Re-Piping

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 vintage North Hollywood homes lost decades ago.

Permits & Inspections

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.

Building in North Hollywood

We Know What's
Behind the Tile

North Hollywood bathrooms tell on the age of the house the moment we open a wall. Across the NoHo Arts District, Toluca Woods, and Bakman, the original vintage 1920s–40s bathrooms share the same story: a single small tub-centric bath, galvanized supply lines that have corroded from the inside, and a fan that never actually vented outside.

Because North Hollywood is City of Los Angeles, every bit of plumbing and electrical work is permitted through LADBS, with Valley inspections run out of the Van Nuys Development Services Center. We're in that building routinely, so the permitting side moves smoothly instead of stalling your project.

The honest conversation we have with nearly every NoHo homeowner is about what's worth doing while the walls are open — re-piping a vintage home, adding proper ventilation, moving a wall to steal a few inches for a real shower in a small footprint. We build those decisions into the fixed price up front, so the finished bathroom isn't just beautiful, it's a bathroom that won't hand the next owner a problem.

What It Costs

North Hollywood Bathroom
Cost Ranges

Project Tier	Typical Range	What's Involved
Refresh	$18K–$28K	Same footprint: new tile, vanity, toilet, fixtures, lighting, and paint. A guest or hall bath brought fully up to date.
Tub-to-Shower	$22K–$35K	Remove the tub, build a waterproofed walk-in or curbless shower, new tile, glass, vanity, and fixtures — often with local re-piping.

North Hollywood Bathroom FAQ

Questions We
Hear in North Hollywood

Do you handle the permits for a bathroom remodel in North Hollywood?+

Yes. North Hollywood is part of the City of Los Angeles, so bathroom permits go through LADBS, with Valley submissions handled at the Van Nuys Development Services Center, a short drive from our Valley Glen office. Any time we move plumbing, add or relocate a shower, or touch electrical, that work is permitted and inspected. We handle submission, corrections, and final sign-off; you never deal with the counter.

How much does a bathroom remodel cost in North Hollywood?+

Most North Hollywood bathroom remodels run from about $18,000 for a straightforward guest-bath refresh to $55,000+ 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 vintage NoHo home usually lands in the $22,000–$35,000 range, and older homes often need re-piping while the walls are open. 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 North Hollywood projects. We remove the old tub, reframe and waterproof the shower area, set a proper sloped pan (curbed or fully curbless), and tile it out 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 vintage North Hollywood homes need to be replaced?+

Often, yes. Many vintage 1920s–40s North Hollywood homes still have original galvanized steel supply lines that have corroded and choked down 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'll 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 North Hollywood?+

A standard North Hollywood bathroom remodel runs about 3–5 weeks from construction start. A guest-bath refresh on the same footprint is faster; a full master bath with moved plumbing, a curbless shower, and custom tile takes longer, especially in older homes where re-piping or framing repairs come to light. You get a committed milestone schedule before demolition, plus realistic guidance on tile lead times so nothing stalls mid-project.

Are you licensed and insured, and do you offer free estimates in North Hollywood?+

Yes on both. Right Image Builders holds active California license CSLB #1021284 with full liability and workers' compensation coverage. Our shop is in Valley Glen, minutes from North Hollywood, so the on-site bathroom estimate is free and truly local — a senior team member comes out, not a call-center scheduler.
