Bathroom remodeling in Berryhill, OK

Past the city limits, not past the code

Berryhill is unincorporated, so a remodel here answers to Tulsa County instead of a city hall. When a wall is open, the old plumbing in it comes up to current standards and code, and the plumber on our team sets each new shower valve to its maker's specifications.

Before anyone opens your wall

Two customers walk you through their remodel on video, you meet the owner who takes the calls, and three Google reviews say the rest in the customers' own words.

Jeremy learned showers and tile at 16 under a Tulsa home builder, and he still picks up the phone himself. Ask him what he would leave in your wall and what he would pull out; he will give you a straight answer.

Jeremy's story

I hired Oklahoma Bath Professionals to redo my alcove shower. The results were way beyond my expectations. From start to finish the team were communicative, punctual, and respectful of my home. You can tell that they take enormous pride in their work. Hiring remodeling contractors can be hit and miss, and to be truthful I have been duped in the past by unreliable and poor workmanship. Oklahoma Bath Professionals are THE go-to company for remodeling. They will definitely be the first company I call for my next reno project! Thank you Joshua and Miguel!

Commercial bathroom remodel, Berryhill

A Berryhill house, or a building you manage

We remodel bathrooms in Berryhill homes, and restrooms for the offices, restaurants, schools and public buildings of west Tulsa County. Choose the one you came for.

Berryhill bathroom renovation

Outside the city, still under a code

Berryhill has no city government, and the Census Bureau does not even draw a line around it; the closest count is its school district. Here is what those numbers and the county's rules mean for a bathroom remodel in your house.

What that means for your shower

  1. Unincorporated, and it has stayed that way

    Berryhill sits between west Tulsa and Sand Springs without belonging to either. In 2011, after residents spoke against it, Tulsa's mayor asked the city council to hold off on a fence-line annexation into the area. So the line that matters for a remodel is the city limit, not the name on your mail: it decides whose rules apply to your house.Source 5

  2. Tulsa County, not a city hall

    Outside the cities, Tulsa County Inspections is the office that issues building and trade permits, and plumbers, electricians and mechanical contractors register with it before they work there. Oklahoma law does not make a permit automatic for a bathroom remodel. Whether a given job needs one depends on the work and on which side of the city limit the house sits, and we talk it through with you at the estimate.Source 2

  3. No city hall, same scald rule

    The county works from the 2018 residential code, and under it a new shower valve has to balance pressure, control temperature, or both, with a stop set so the water tops out at 120ยฐF. That rule applies out here the same as in town, and our plumber follows the valve maker's specifications for that stop.Source 4

  4. Valves that have been in the wall a long time

    About 4 in 10 homes in the district went up between 1970 and 1999, more in the 1990s than in any other decade, and about a quarter are older than 1960. A valve from those years may be a two-handle model with no scald protection, or a single handle whose parts are wearing out. If the wall is coming open anyway, that is the cheapest day to replace it.Source 1

  5. Houses people stay in

    Nine in ten people in the district lived in the same house a year earlier, and the median age is about 41, against 36 for the county. One hall bath here often serves a toddler and a grandparent in the same week. That is the case for a valve that holds its temperature and a hand shower you can reach sitting down.Source 1

Shower remodel Berryhill, OK

Who uses the shower in your house?

The right shower depends on the people standing in it. Pick the one that sounds like your house to see what we would build and which valve we would put behind it.

Kids at home

A tub-shower that cannot run too hot

Small children still need a tub, so in a family hall bath we usually rebuild the tub-shower instead of taking it out. The plumber on our team sets the new valve's high-limit stop to its maker's specifications, so a little hand that cranks the lever cannot swing it all the way to hot. The walls can be tile over a waterproofed board, or acrylic or solid-surface panels that wipe clean after bath time.

Shower valve replacement, Berryhill

Pressure-balancing or thermostatic? What sits behind the handle

The valve is the one part of a shower you never see and use every day. It decides whether a flushed toilet turns your shower into a scald, and whether a worn part means a quick cartridge swap or a cut through new tile. Here is how to choose one before the wall closes.

What a shower valve is

A brass body inside the wall that mixes hot and cold. The handle is only trim.

The valve body
Soldered or crimped to the supply pipes behind the tile. Changing it means opening the wall, which is why the time to choose it is during a remodel.
The cartridge
The moving part inside the body that does the mixing, and the part that wears. On most modern valves it slides out from the front once the trim is off.
The trim
The handle and the plate you see. It has to match the brand and series of the body behind it.
The high-limit stop
A stop inside that keeps the handle from turning past a set point toward hot. The residential code (IRC P2708.4) requires it, set so the shower delivers no more than 120ยฐF.

Pressure-balancing: steady when the pressure changes

The common single-handle valve, and the one most showers need.

How it works
When the pressure drops on one side, say cold when a toilet refills, the valve cuts back the other side to match. Delta rates its version at plus or minus 3.6ยฐF.
What you notice
The temperature hardly moves when someone flushes. The flow may dip for a moment instead, which is the valve doing its job.
One handle, one job
Most single-handle models set temperature only. Turn it on and you go straight to a mix, with the volume always full.
Where we use it
Most hall baths and most single-head showers. It meets the code and costs the least of the protected types.
Chrome thermostatic shower mixer bar with a hand shower hose on white square tile

Thermostatic: holds the temperature you chose

It reads the water temperature itself and adjusts the mix to hold your setting.

How it works
A heat-sensing element inside the cartridge opens or closes hot and cold to keep the outlet at the temperature you set, whatever the supply is doing.
Heat and flow apart
One control sets the temperature, another the volume, so you can turn the water off and on without hunting for the right spot again.
Who it is for
Young children and older bathers, and anyone who sits in the shower. The Consumer Product Safety Commission says most tap water scald injuries happen to the elderly and to children under five.
More than one outlet
The better fit for a rain head and a hand shower used together. It costs more than a pressure-balancing valve, which we price once we see the room.

Keep the old valve, or replace it?

Once the tile is off, a new valve adds little to the job. After the new tile is on, changing it means cutting through it.

Replace it when
It has two or three handles, it has no high-limit stop, a new cartridge would not stop the drip, or it no longer sits at the right depth for a thicker new wall.
Keep it when
It is a pressure-balancing or thermostatic valve, its maker still sells the cartridge, and it fits the new wall. You save the cost of the rough-in.
What we put in
Delta is what we usually install, with Moen or Kohler on request, and the plumber on our team sets each one to its maker's specifications. Delta's MultiChoice body takes its 14 and 17 series pressure-balancing cartridges or a 17T thermostatic one, so a later upgrade can come with new trim and no new plumbing.
A separate tub filler
A freestanding tub with its own faucet needs its own temperature-limiting device under the same code (IRC P2713.3), set to 120ยฐF.

    The garden tub became the shower

    A safe shower for a U.S. military veteran

    The Tinker Federal Credit Union Foundation asked us to build an accessible shower for a Korean War veteran in Glenpool, within a nonprofit budget. The corner jacuzzi tub came out, and a curbless roll-in shower with grab bars went in its place.

    A soaking tub inside the shower

    South Tulsa homeowners wanted a freestanding soaking tub without giving up the shower. We took out the old tub and shower floor and built a wet room: the tub and the shower share one tiled, waterproofed space with a pebble floor.

Questions we hear from Berryhill

What does a bathroom remodel cost in Berryhill, OK?

Whole-room remodels for us mostly fall between $10,000 and $25,000; below $2,500 to $5,000, a job is too small for us to take on. A master bath in east Tulsa that traded its garden tub for a tiled shower, with quartz tops on rebuilt vanities, came to about $22,000 to $23,000. What moves the number.

How much is a shower remodel in Berryhill, OK?

Our documented shower jobs give the range. The Bixby walk-in, new valves and drain included, came to about $7,000 to $7,500, and a roll-in shower for a veteran in Glenpool to about $7,000 to $8,500. A tiled shower with a bench, niches or a curbless floor costs more than one with acrylic or solid-surface wall panels, which we also install. Your number comes after we see the shower and the wall behind it.

Do you offer financing for a Berryhill bathroom remodel?

Not in house. Berryhill homeowners who want monthly payments usually go to a local lender, such as Tulsa Teachers Credit Union, Arvest or Regent Bank, and bring our quote, which lists every line of work and material.

Do I need a permit to remodel a bathroom in Berryhill?

Not necessarily. Oklahoma state law does not require a permit for every bathroom remodel; whether yours needs one depends on the work and on where the house is. Outside city limits, Tulsa County Inspections is the office that issues building and trade permits, and if your address turns out to be inside Sand Springs or Tulsa, that city's rules apply instead. We go over it with you at the estimate.

My shower goes hot or cold when someone flushes. Can you replace just the valve?

That swing almost always comes from the valve: older two-handle valves often have no pressure balancing at all, and in a newer one the cartridge may be worn, which can often be swapped from the front. Replacing the valve itself means cutting into sound tile, and on its own it falls under our $2,500 to $5,000 minimum. So we do it as part of a shower remodel, with the wall already open, and our plumber sets the new valve to its maker's specifications.

Do you install walk-in tubs for seniors in Berryhill, OK?

Yes. A walk-in tub suits someone who wants to sit and soak: you step through a door, sit on a built-in seat and stay seated while it fills and drains. Someone who would rather shower is often better off with a low-entry walk-in shower and a bench, so start with how the person bathes. For a veteran, the VA's HISA benefit can pay part of it when a VA doctor prescribes it for a medical reason, up to $6,800 over a lifetime for a service-connected disability or a rating of 50% or higher, and up to $2,000 otherwise; we never trim materials or labor to fit that limit. How we work with the VA.

Can you convert a tub to a safe walk-in shower in Berryhill?

Yes. The tub comes out and a walk-in shower takes its place, with a low or curbless entry, a bench, a hand shower on a slide bar you can reach from the seat, and a thermostatic valve that holds the temperature you set. If it is for a parent, have them on the call or at the visit, so the heights fit the person who will use it. Tub to shower conversion.

Do you add grab bars and non-slip floors in Berryhill, OK?

Yes, usually as part of a shower or tub job, since a bar on its own falls below our minimum. Bars go where the person reaches as they step in, sit and stand. For the floor, small mosaic tile with plenty of grout lines, or a textured porcelain, grips better when wet than large polished tile; we show you samples and you choose.

Do you remodel small-business restrooms in Berryhill, OK?

Yes, for offices, shops, restaurants, schools and public buildings around Berryhill: fixtures, stalls, counters, floors and tile. Public hand sinks have their own rule under the 2018 plumbing code, tempered water through a temperature-limiting device, and the plumbers on our team handle that side. For public and government work, we are registered in SAM, the federal vendor system. Commercial restroom remodeling.

Can you bring a Berryhill restroom up to ADA code?

Yes. We plan clearances, stall size, grab bars, sink and mirror heights and door hardware to the 2010 ADA Standards with you, and where an older room cannot fit everything, we show you what it can fit before any work starts. ADA restroom compliance.

Can work be scheduled around our hours in Berryhill?

Yes. The days are agreed with you before we begin, and the noisy work can be planned around your open hours if you ask. In a building with two restrooms, keeping one usable while the other is redone is possible, and your call. Most of these jobs take 2 days to a week.
