What Los Angeles bathrooms look like

Los Angeles homes are mostly 1920s Spanish bungalows with cast-iron tubs and narrow doors, 1950s ranches in the Valley, and condos where elevator dimensions decide what fits. That matters because the tub is chosen for the room as much as the bather: a standard 60 inch alcove takes the Hydro Dimensions 3060 or Ella Ultimate as a drop-in, a small bath takes the Ella Mobile, and a bathroom used from a wheelchair is usually better served by a Bestbath roll in shower. LA County requires a plumbing permit for a tub replacement in nearly every city, and our crews pull it; Southern California water is hard.

Help paying for it in Los Angeles

• Veterans: the VA HISA grant, filed through the VA Greater Los Angeles Healthcare System. Build the itemized estimate in four minutes with our planner.
• Medicaid waiver: Medi-Cal's Home and Community-Based Alternatives waiver and the Multipurpose Senior Services Program can fund modifications; the California Department of Aging and county Area Agencies on Aging are the front door. Many cities also run senior home repair grants.
• Everyone: monthly financing, senior and veteran discounts on every order, and an itemized written price. Medicare rarely pays, and we say so up front.
• Local help: Los Angeles County Aging and Disabilities Department is the front door for state and county programs.

Permits and code in Los Angeles

The California Residential Code and Plumbing Code apply statewide, and nearly every city and county requires a plumbing permit for a tub replacement and an electrical permit for a new circuit; Title 24 energy rules apply to new water heaters. Our crews pull the permit. Our crews pull what is required and install to the manufacturer's spec. Our showers are ADA and ANSI A117.1 code-compliant models when that is what the job calls for.

Walk in tub or roll in shower for a Los Angeles home?

About a third of Los Angeles families who call about a walk in tub end up with a roll in shower, and they are happier for it. If the bather can stand, step over six inches and pivot to sit, and someone in the house wants to soak, a walk in tub with a heated seat is the right buy. If the bather uses a wheelchair full time, a low-threshold shower with a fold-up seat is faster to use, easier for a caregiver, and no more expensive. The middle path is a walk in tub shower combo.

Why Los Angeles customers skip the TV brands

National brands quote $25,000 to $30,000 for a walk in tub installed in Los Angeles, and the price is set at your kitchen table after a three-hour presentation. The same class of tub, installed by factory-certified crews with a lifetime shell warranty, runs $15,000 to under $20,000 with us, itemized, with no visit. See the full price investigation →
