Bathroom Remodeling · Santa Monica
Spa-level bathrooms for Santa Monica homes, permitted through the city and built for coastal air. The gray marble primary bath below is our work, photographed the day we finished it.
Bathrooms in Santa Monica
Steam every morning. Salt air all year. A bathroom near the coast takes more abuse than any other room in the house. We build Santa Monica bathrooms for that reality: proper waterproofing, ventilation sized to the room, and stone and fixtures that look as good in year ten as day one.
Athenian Builders Group is a licensed California contractor (CSLB #1045030) building bathrooms across Santa Monica with our own crews: fixed price in writing, firm timeline, 2-year workmanship warranty. See our full bathroom remodeling services.

Permits
Santa Monica runs its own planning and building department. Like-for-like swaps usually need no permit, but moving plumbing or electrical, changing walls, or rebuilding a shower pan goes through city review. We prepare the drawings, pull the permits, and handle every inspection.

Questions
Every wet area gets a full waterproofing membrane, not just backer board. Exhaust fans are sized to the room, not the code minimum. Materials are chosen for humidity. That’s the difference between a bathroom that lasts and one that molds.
The City of Santa Monica, not LADBS. If your project needs a permit, we prepare the drawings, file them, and meet the inspector ourselves, every time.
A same-layout hall bath runs about 2 to 3 weeks of construction; a full primary suite runs 5 to 8. You get the schedule in writing before we start.
