A Reseda bathroom is a 5-by-8 hall bath with a tub, a window over it and a vanity from a later decade, serving a three-bedroom 1950s ranch that has never had a second full bath. Behind the tile the house dates the plumbing: galvanized supply lines choked to half their diameter, a cast-iron drain patched at the trap, and a fan that was never ducted outside. Our proposal prices the re-pipe, the pan and the slope first, because that is what decides whether the room is still dry in twenty years.
Behind the new tile, the Reseda house sets the scope. The plumbing is typically galvanized supply lines and original cast-iron drains in the 1950s houses, slab floors on most blocks, and cripple walls on the raised-foundation streets that were never bolted after 1994. 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 15–20 minutes away, so the project lead who does your estimate is on site through the 3–6 weeks the build takes, and most Reseda families stay in the home. The site is cleaned every evening and the rest of the house stays livable.
The signature Reseda 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 Reseda 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.
Reseda sits in the west Valley between Tarzana and Northridge, gridded flat from Sherman Way south to Victory Boulevard and beyond, with Reseda Boulevard as its spine, Reseda Park and its lake at Victory, and the Metro G Line busway station at Reseda and Oxnard on the south edge. Our office is in Valley Glen, about seven miles east along Sherman Way or Victory, a 15–20 minute drive, and the LADBS counter that reviews every Reseda permit is the Van Nuys Development Services Center on Van Nuys Boulevard, on the way.
The two projects we build most in Reseda are the tub-to-shower conversion in the hall bath and the new primary bath carved out of a closet and a few inches of the back bedroom. On these slab-floored tracts a relocated drain means cutting the slab, so we lay out the fixtures to keep the drain where it is when we can; a curbless shower is possible but adds the slab work, and we price both options at the estimate.
Plumbing and electrical work in Reseda 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.
