We know Maywood’s quirks better than most crews because we work here every month. The lots are narrow, the houses sit close to property lines, and the permitting goes through LA County rather than a city counter. That last part trips up out-of-town contractors constantly. We plan for it from day one.

Tom Barrett started this company in 1998, and the crew that shows up at your door is his sons and their teams, not a rotating cast of strangers. Same faces, same phone number, same guy you can call back when a question pops up at 8pm. That matters in a tight-knit community like Maywood, where word travels fast and a contractor’s reputation either saves him or sinks him.

Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Maywood’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company

Maywood is one of the densest incorporated cities in the country, with roughly 1.18 square miles holding thousands of homes. That changes how we work. We’re not staging equipment in your front yard for a week, and we’re not blocking your neighbor’s driveway with a debris trailer-something our Driveway & Pavers in Maywood customers especially appreciate. We plan the job around the tight lots and zero setback lines that define life here. Most Maywood homes sit on 25-to-40-foot-wide lots, which means material deliveries get sequenced carefully, not dumped all at once.

The permitting reality in Maywood deserves a straight explanation. Unlike Huntington Park or Bell, which run their own building departments, Maywood contracts its permitting to LA County Building and Safety. That happened after the city’s 2010 fiscal troubles. What it means for you: inspections get scheduled through the County’s regional system, timelines differ from neighboring cities, and any contractor who tells you permits aren’t needed for your remodel is wrong. We pull them on every eligible job and we stand there when the inspector walks through, because the inspection is your protection.

Every bathroom remodel we do in Maywood comes with the 90-Day Done Right Promise written on the contract. If something’s not right, Tom comes back on one call. No fine print, no “that’s normal settling.” And every price change during your project arrives as a written change order before work proceeds. An allowance that isn’t on paper is a surprise waiting for a date, and we don’t do surprises.

We’re an owner-operated Bathroom Remodeling company, not a franchise dispatching strangers. Tom’s name, address, and license number are published and verifiable. Ask anyone on your street, or look up the license number yourself. In Maywood, where people actually know their neighbors, that kind of transparency is the difference between a contractor you recommend and one you warn people about.

Our Bathroom Remodeling Services in Maywood

Full Bathroom Remodeling

A full bathroom remodel in Maywood typically means gutting a 5′ x 8′ or 7′ x 7′ bathroom in a postwar bungalow and rebuilding it from the studs. On these older homes, that often includes asbestos testing and abatement coordination before we open walls. We handle the lead paint and asbestos piece so you don’t have to chase environmental contractors yourself. The goal is a bathroom that actually fits how your family lives now, not how a family lived in 1953.

Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling

We do a lot of walk-in shower work in Maywood, especially for homeowners who plan to stay in their homes into their 70s and beyond. Curbless entries, grab bars, zero-threshold drains, handheld showerheads. Done right, these don’t look institutional. Most walk-in shower installations here run $4,500 to $12,000 depending on tile, glass, and whether we’re moving the drain.

Tub-to-Shower Conversion

That original cast-iron tub in your Maywood bungalow has been there since Eisenhower was president, and it’s probably showing its age. A tub-to-shower conversion runs $3,500 to $10,000 and usually buys you real square footage in a bathroom that never had any to spare. We include the plumbing changes, tile work, and a frameless glass enclosure if you want one. It’s one of the highest-impact changes you can make on a modest budget.

Vanities, Tile & Fixtures

Sometimes the bones of the bathroom are fine and you just need the room to stop looking like a rental. We install vanities, tile, and fixtures as standalone projects too. Bathroom vanity installation in Maywood runs $800 to $3,000 including the vanity, faucet, and drain work. We can source it or you can buy it and we’ll install it. Either way, the work gets written up line by line before we start.

Trusted Brands We Service in Maywood

When you’re paying for a remodel, you deserve to know what’s going into your walls. We install Simonton and Ply Gem windows in bathrooms where extra light or ventilation matters, and we carry PGT impact-rated options for homeowners who want the added protection. No mystery brands off the back of a van. If a product has a name, you can look it up. If it doesn’t, we won’t put it in your house.

We also stock common parts locally for Maywood customers, which means when a valve or a flange fails mid-project, we’re not waiting five days on a shipment. That’s the advantage of working with a company that actually works here, not one that drives in from across the county.

Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Maywood Homes

• Asbestos and lead paint in 1940s-1960s houses. Most Maywood homes were built between the 1940s and 1960s, and many contain asbestos in drywall, floor tile, and duct wrap, plus lead paint on walls and trim. We coordinate testing and abatement before demolition starts so nobody gets exposed.
• Compromised subflooring around tubs and toilets. Years of slow leaks in tight bathrooms rot the subfloor under the tile. We regularly find soft spots that need sistering or replacement before new flooring can go down. This is a Maywood-specific reality because the homes are old and the soil underneath is alluvial and prone to settling.
• Undersized bathrooms that need creative layout work. Many Maywood bathrooms are 35 to 50 square feet. You can’t just “add space.” We work within existing footprints and use compact vanities, wall-hung toilets, and curbless showers to make small rooms function like bigger ones.
• Drainage and grading issues from the flat, heavily paved landscape. Maywood sits in the low-lying LA Basin near the Los Angeles River, and the city is almost entirely paved over. Winter rains hit hard and fast with nowhere to soak in. Bathroom remodels on ground floors sometimes reveal moisture intrusion that started outside the bathroom. We check for that before we tile over it.
