Fast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across Redlands
A full bathroom remodel in Redlands typically runs $9,000 to $28,000, depending on the age of your plumbing, the size of the room, and the finishes you choose. For smaller bathrooms, expect $5,000 to $12,000. Most Redlands projects take three to six weeks from demo to final inspection, with the city’s permit process adding about one to two weeks on the front end. Call (803) 680-2547 and we’ll walk you through what your specific home will need before you commit to anything.
We know Redlands bathrooms. The historic bungalows near downtown, the mid-century ranches off Sunset Drive, the newer tract homes east of Wabash Avenue – each has its own plumbing reality, and that reality drives cost more than anything else. Our Bathroom Remodeling team has worked through enough Redlands gut jobs to tell you before we start whether your cast iron drains will survive another remodel or need a re-pipe.
Why Mason Remodeling Is Redlands’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
Isaac Pruett leads our Redlands projects, and he’s the first person homeowners meet. Not a sales rep. The person accountable for the work. That changes how scoping conversations go – you’re talking to the person who reads the permit feedback from the city of Redlands, who walks the job with the inspector, and who signs off on the final walkthrough.
Every Mason Remodeling technician who enters a Redlands home is background-checked and identity-verified under the Threshold Standard. Before the crew arrives, you get each person’s name and photo. At the door, they carry a photo ID badge and wear a clean marked uniform. If you’re home alone or have young kids, that matters. You know exactly who is walking through your door. No exceptions, ever.
The other thing Redlands homeowners tell us they value: a written price before any work begins. Not a verbal estimate that grows on the final bill. Our price is on paper, it’s fixed, and it includes the scope we agreed on. If something changes, we document it in a written change order before any extra work happens. You approve it first. Every time.
This location is part of the Threshold Group family of home-service companies, operating here since 2004. The 365-Day Done Right Promise backs every finished project: if the work is not right within a year of completion, we make it right at no cost to you.
Styles & brands we work with
Bathroom Remodeling Contractor in Redlands
A Bathroom Remodeling Contractor in Redlands does more than swap out tile and fixtures. In this city, where most pre-1980s homes carry original cast iron or galvanized plumbing behind bathroom walls, the contractor’s first job is determining what’s behind the drywall before pricing the pretty stuff. That inspection changes everything about your budget and timeline.
When you hire us for a full bathroom remodel in Redlands, here’s what actually happens: we open the walls and confirm the plumbing condition, check the subfloor for rot, verify framing can carry the weight of new tile or a glass enclosure, then finalize the written scope. Only after that do we pull the city of Redlands permits. A separate plumbing permit is required, and the city performs its own inspections before walls close. We schedule those inspections and we’re on site for them.
Full Bathroom Remodeling
A full gut remodel in Redlands runs $9,000 to $28,000. That includes demo, plumbing rough-in, electrical, drywall, tile, fixtures, vanity, and finishes. In older Redlands homes, plan for possible cast iron drain replacement or galvanized supply line re-piping – that’s the single biggest cost swing we see.
Small Bathroom Remodels
A small bath in Redlands – think a 5×8 hall bath in a 1950s ranch – runs $5,000 to $12,000. Lower square footage means less tile and fewer materials, but the plumbing age still matters. We’ll tell you honestly if your little bath is a candidate for a simple refresh or if the pipes demand a bigger scope.
Walk In Shower in Redlands
A Walk In Shower in Redlands is the most requested upgrade we do, and for good reason. Older Redlands homes often have narrow tub stalls that make stepping over a high tub wall a daily frustration. Converting to a curbless or low-curb walk-in shower opens the room up and gives you a safer, more usable daily space.
Walk-in shower installation in Redlands runs $4,500 to $12,000. Frameless glass enclosures sit at the higher end of that range. A tub-to-shower conversion runs $3,500 to $10,000, and a straightforward shower replacement runs $3,000 to $8,500. All of these ranges depend on what we find behind the existing tile. In Redlands’ older stock, that often means reinforced framing and a modern Schluter waterproofing system under the tile.
Frameless Glass Shower Enclosures
Frameless glass uses heavy tempered panels and needs precise measurements and solid mounting points. In older Redlands homes with settled floors, we account for that in the measure and the install. The result is clean sightlines and no metal frame to corrode.
Tub-to-Shower Conversion
If you’re staying in your Redlands home and want to bathe safely without a tub wall, a tub-to-shower conversion is the practical choice. We handle the drain relocation, waterproofing, and the finish package so the new shower doesn’t look like an afterthought.
Trusted Brands We Service in Redlands
We stock and install specification-grade products for Redlands clients because a remodel should hold up to daily use in hard-water conditions. That includes Cambria and Silestone quartz surfaces, Kohler and Moen fixtures, and KraftMaid cabinetry. For Redlands homeowners who want a shower system that performs well under the city’s water pressure, we recommend Kohler or Grohe thermostatic valves – they hold temperature steady even when a toilet flushes elsewhere in the house. We keep common valve cartridges and trim kits in our Inland Empire stock so Redlands warranty calls don’t wait on a parts shipment from a distributor.

AfterCommon Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Redlands Homes
- Original cast iron and galvanized plumbing. Most pre-1980s Redlands homes have plumbing that’s at or past its service life. If your walls are open and the pipes are pitted, skipping a re-pipe means paying twice for labor down the road.
- Hidden water damage behind original tile. We regularly pull 1950s and 60s tile in Redlands and find rotted subfloor or framing beneath. That’s not a surprise we spring on you – it’s exactly why we write a scope with a documented allowance for subfloor work before demo starts.
- Permit and inspection snags. The city of Redlands requires a separate plumbing permit and final inspection sign-off before walls close. If you skip that, an inspector could force a tear-out of freshly finished walls. We pull permits on every job where they’re required.
- Framing that can’t carry a heavy tile shower. Older Redlands homes weren’t built for floor-to-ceiling tile or glass panels. We check load-bearing capacity and add blocking or reinforcement where the walls are going to carry real weight.

That’s why we write written allowances into our fixed-price contract before work begins. Any change gets a written change order you approve first. Call (803) 680-2547 to get an honest scope on paper.
A standard full bathroom remodel in Redlands takes three to six weeks from demo to final walkthrough.

Yes. Tub-to-shower conversions are one of our most common Redlands projects, and they run $3,500 to $10,000 depending on drain relocation, glass enclosure, and what we find behind the walls. In older Redlands homes we often reinforce framing and install new waterproofing as part of the conversion. Call (803) 680-2547 for a free estimate on converting your tub to a walk-in shower.
In Redlands’ historic Chestnut Avenue area, we recently gutted a 1950s bathroom where the original cast iron drain line had corroded and the galvanized supply lines were failing. After a full rough-in re-pipe with PEX and a new subfloor, we installed a KraftMaid vanity with a Cambria quartz top and a Kohler shower system. The homeowner passed final inspection with no change orders because we’d detailed the scope of work and allowances up front. That’s the difference a written scope makes.
