Fast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across Inglewood
Bathroom remodeling in Inglewood typically runs $9,000 to $28,000 for a full gut-and-replace, with small bathroom remodels landing between $5,000 and $12,000. Most Inglewood homeowners we work with are trying to figure out whether their 1960s tract home even can support the shower and vanity they want without a plumbing overhaul. That’s the question that matters before you pick tile or fixtures. Call (254) 272-5876 and we’ll walk you through it.
Sawyer Remodeling, a General Contractor in Inglewood, runs crews into Inglewood from our Los Angeles office, and we know the housing stock here: the slab-on-grade ranches west of La Brea, the raised-foundation post-war homes near Morningside Park, the newer townhomes going up around the stadium corridor. The houses change block by block, and so does the scope of work. We price accordingly, in writing, before any demo starts.
Why Sawyer Remodeling Is Inglewood’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
We’re not the biggest remodeling outfit in Inglewood, and we don’t try to be. We’re the one that puts the price in writing before work starts and keeps you informed while the walls are open. That’s the Relay Visibility Guarantee every project runs under: a live arrival time for the crew, photo updates before and after each phase, and a written price that doesn’t drift once the job is underway. Inglewood homeowners tell us the photo updates matter most. You see the rough-in before the tile goes down, not after.
Luca Romano leads our Inglewood bathroom remodels, and he’s walked enough 1960s bathrooms here to know what hides behind the pink tile and cast-iron tub. He’ll open the subfloor, show you what’s under it, and price the fix honestly. Every Sawyer Remodeling technician is background-checked and uniformed, so you know exactly who’s in your home. And when you call, a live person answers. No voicemail loops at 2 a.m. when you’re staring at a leak from the shower above.
We hold a 365-Day Done Right Promise on every project. If it’s not done right, we make it right, in writing, for a full year after the job closes. That’s not a discount-program warranty. It’s the name on the invoice.
Styles & brands we work with
Bathroom Remodeling Contractor in Inglewood
A Bathroom Remodeling Contractor in Inglewood is doing more than swapping fixtures. On the older homes here, the real work is under the floor: replacing 1.5-inch copper supply lines with 3/4-inch so a modern shower valve actually delivers pressure, cutting out rusted cast-iron drains, and sistering joists that have been sitting under a leaking tub for 40 years. That’s the job. Tile, vanity, and glass come after the plumbing is right. A full Bathroom Remodeling job in Inglewood runs $9,000 to $28,000 depending on what the walls and subfloor reveal.
Plumbing-First Remodeling
In Inglewood, the plumbing rough-in is the remodel. We pull the permit, open the subfloor, and run new supply and drain lines before any finish material goes in. The inspection sign-off on the rough-in is the milestone that keeps the project legal and the price honest.
Full Bathroom Remodeling
When we gut an Inglewood bathroom, we frame, plumb, wire, waterproof, tile, and finish. KraftMaid vanities, Cambria quartz tops, Kohler fixtures. The full bathroom remodel range of $9,000 to $28,000 covers the spread from a functional refresh to a high-end build with a curbless shower and frameless glass.
Walk In Shower in Inglewood
A Walk In Shower in Inglewood is the most-requested upgrade we see from homeowners aging out of a bathtub or just tired of the vinyl curtain. Installation runs $4,500 to $12,000 depending on whether you’re converting an existing tub alcove or building a new curbless entry. On the older tract homes, a walk-in shower usually means relocating the drain to center the shower floor slope, which is plumbing work, not just tile work. We handle both.
Curbless Walk-In Showers
Curbless showers are popular in Inglewood because they make the bathroom feel bigger and work well for multi-generational households. They also require a recessed subfloor or a raised bathroom floor to get the proper 1/4-inch-per-foot slope, which is exactly the kind of structural decision you want priced before the first tile is set.
Shower Remodeling
If your Inglewood shower leaks or the tile is failing, a shower remodel replaces the pan, waterproofs the walls, and gives you a clean base for new tile. Range is $3,000 to $8,500 for a shower replacement. We’ll write the scope so you know exactly what’s getting torn out and what’s going back in.
Trusted Brands We Service in Inglewood
We install and service fixtures and materials from brands Inglewood homeowners actually recognize: Kohler and Toto for fixtures, KraftMaid and Wellborn for vanities, Cambria and Caesarstone for quartz tops, and Schluter for waterproofing systems. Schluter edge trim, the metal strip that waterproofs where your tile meets the floor, is standard on our shower builds. We don’t stock mystery-brand faucets or vanities from a supply-house clearance bin. When something fails a year later, you want a manufacturer that answers the phone.

AfterCommon Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Inglewood Homes
- Rusted cast-iron drains. The 1960s and 70s tract homes around Morningside Park and west of La Brea still run original 2-inch cast-iron. It looks fine from above, but it’s paper-thin at the closet bend. We open the subfloor on every Inglewood remodel before quoting finish work.
- Undersized supply lines. Half-inch galvanized or old copper can’t push a modern rain head and body spray at full pressure. Upgrading to 3/4-inch copper is a rough-in decision, not an afterthought.
- Rotted subfloor under the tub. Thirty years of slow seep around the tub flange rots plywood and joists. You won’t see it in a phone-photo quote. We find it when the tub comes out, and we price the repair before tile goes down.
- Skipped rough-in inspections. Some contractors in Inglewood skip the rough-in inspection to save a day. Then the shower pan fails a hydrostatic test after tile is set. The fix is a gut. We pull permits and schedule the inspection on every project, no exceptions.

FAQs About Bathroom Remodeling in Inglewood
Yes. Any remodel that touches plumbing, electrical, or structural framing in Inglewood requires a city permit, including moving a drain for a walk-in shower or relocating a vanity light. Sawyer Remodeling pulls all permits and schedules inspections. We don’t do unpermitted work, and we won’t tell you to skip it.
A typical Inglewood bathroom remodel runs 3 to 6 weeks from demo to final inspection, depending on the plumbing rough-in and what the subfloor reveals. You can’t responsibly compress a remodel that includes cast-iron replacement and a curbless shower. We’ll give you a written calendar at the start and photo updates so you see the pace of progress without chasing us.
Because the 1960s tract homes here hide real problems: rusted cast-iron drains, galvanized supply lines, and rotted subfloor under the old tub. A phone-photo quote can’t see any of that. Our price includes opening the subfloor before finish work, so you learn the true scope while it can still be fixed cleanly, and every change order is written and approved before we proceed. Call (254) 272-5876 for an exact quote.
Yes. Tub-to-shower conversion in Inglewood runs $3,500 to $10,000, and it’s one of the most common jobs we do in the older homes near Morningside Park and along Arbor Vitae. We remove the tub, relocate or center the drain, waterproof the alcove, and install a shower base or curbless entry.
We install Kohler and Toto fixtures, KraftMaid and Wellborn vanities, Cambria and Caesarstone countertops, and Schluter waterproofing systems. Every product comes from a named manufacturer with a real warranty. No white-label fixtures from a no-name supplier, no materials whose spec sheet we can’t show you.
