Bathrooms in Santa Monica

Built for Coastal Living

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

Bathroom Permits in Santa Monica

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

Santa Monica Bathroom FAQs

How do you handle moisture near the coast?

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.

Who issues bathroom permits in Santa Monica?

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.

How long does a Santa Monica bathroom remodel take?

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.
