Bathroom remodeling Broken Arrow, OK

Broken Arrow grew up fast. Its bathrooms show it.

Nearly seven in ten Broken Arrow homes went up between 1970 and 2009, and the bathrooms from those years are wearing out: fiberglass tub-showers, garden tubs nobody fills, stalls you step over. We replace them with tiled showers on a waterproofing membrane, in homes and businesses all over town.

Before you let anyone open a wall

Hear two customers talk through their remodel on video, meet the owner who answers your call, and read three Google reviews exactly as they were posted.

Family owned, based in Tulsa Jeremy Fuller Managing Director, Oklahoma Bath Professionals

Jeremy learned tile and showers at 16 from a Tulsa builder with 40 years in the trade. When you call, he tells you what is possible in your bathroom and what he would not recommend, before you spend a dollar.

How Jeremy got started

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!

Shower remodel Broken Arrow, OK

A boom town's bathrooms, forty years on

Broken Arrow built most of its houses in one long rush, and the bathrooms from that rush are now the ones giving out. Here are the public numbers, and what they mean once the old tub comes out.

Broken Arrow, on the record

What that means once the old tub is out

  1. Molded fiberglass tub-showers

    Hall baths from the 1980s through the 2000s were often finished with a molded fiberglass tub and surround. A one-piece unit is set before the walls are closed, so it leaves cut in pieces, and behind it there is usually just studs and a tub drain. That makes it the easiest room in the house to turn into a tiled walk-in shower. A fiberglass combo we converted in Bixby.

  2. Garden tubs that rarely get filled

    Builders of the 1990s and 2000s liked a big drop-in tub under the primary bath window, with a small stall shower beside it. Those two decades account for about 15,200 of the city's homes. The tub corner is often the brightest, roomiest spot in the room, and the natural place for a real shower.Source 1

  3. Drains cast into a concrete slab

    In a house on a slab, the shower drain sits in the concrete. Keeping the new shower over the old drain is the least expensive layout; moving it, or lowering the floor for a curbless entry, means cutting and patching concrete. In Bixby we broke out a little concrete just to confirm a hidden drain trap, a $100 change order the homeowner signed first. That job.

  4. A bathroom for the next twenty years

    About 20,900 Broken Arrow residents are 65 or older. The tub wall that was nothing at 40 is the hardest step in the house at 75. If you plan to stay, it pays to plan the shower so a seat, grab bars and a hand shower can go in now, or later, without tearing out tile.Source 1

Which Broken Arrow bathroom is on your list?

In a house from the boom years, the work usually starts in one of three rooms. Pick yours to see what we find there and what we would suggest.

Open walk-in shower with white subway tile, a gray accent band, a corner bench, a niche, a hand shower and a hex tile floor

The hall bath

Trade the tub-shower for tile you walk into

The guest bath is usually a 5-foot fiberglass tub with the shower built in. We cut it out and build a tiled shower in the same space, on a waterproofing membrane, with a low curb or a half-inch ledge.

  • Least expensive over the tub's old drain
  • No tub wall to climb over
  • A niche and a hand shower, if you want them

Walk-in shower cost Broken Arrow

What actually sets the price of a walk-in shower

Most of a walk-in shower's price is decided before any tile goes up: how you step in, where the drain goes, and what is under the floor. Here is what moves the number, starting with what three of ours really cost.

What three of our recent showers cost

Real jobs near Broken Arrow, with prices rounded from the signed quotes. Yours is priced after we see the room.

Diagram comparing a standard shower curb, a low threshold of about half an inch, and a curbless entry with a membrane under the floor

The way in: a curb, a low threshold, or none

The entry decides how much floor work the shower needs, and floor work is where the money goes.

Standard curb
A tiled curb a few inches tall holds the water in. It needs the least floor work, and it suits anyone who steps in easily today.
Low threshold
A ledge about half an inch high, like our Bixby shower: easy to shuffle or roll over, with the floor still sloping to an ordinary drain.
Curbless
The shower floor meets the bathroom floor with no edge. On a slab that means recessing the concrete or building the rest of the floor up, so it costs the most of the three. How a curbless floor is built.
What we will not do
Build a curbless floor without a membrane under the whole wet area, or without enough slope. Water that reaches the bedroom carpet makes for the most expensive shower there is.
Plan views of a 60 by 30 inch shower: a base matched to the existing end drain, a linear drain at the end, and a drain moved to the center through a slab cut zone

The drain, and the slab under it

In a slab house the drain is set in concrete. Leaving it alone costs least; moving it means cutting the floor.

Keep the drain where it is
A shower that fits over the old tub's drain needs no concrete work, so that is where we start the conversation.
A linear drain at one end
A long, narrow drain along the end wall lets the floor slope one way, which suits a low or curbless entry and keeps the work near the old drain.
Moving the drain to the middle
The slab is cut, a trench is dug back to the old line, the new pipe is sloped and the concrete is patched. It is real work, and it shows on the quote as its own line.
Surprises under the floor
Once the old shower is out, the floor can hold something nobody could see. If it changes the price, you see it in writing and sign it before we do it.
Marble-look tile walk-in shower with two corner benches, a rain head, a hand shower on a slide bar and frameless glass panels

Size, walls and glass

The rest of the price is surface: how many square feet of wall, what covers them, and how the opening is closed.

Size
A shower in the old tub's 5-foot space costs less than one that takes over a garden tub corner. More wall means more tile, more membrane and more hours.
Tile over waterproofing
Every tiled wall we build sits on cement or foam board under a membrane. Large porcelain tile goes up faster than small mosaics or a pattern.
Wall panels instead of tile
We install acrylic and solid-surface wall panels all the time. They cost less up front, go up fast and leave no grout to scrub. As with tile, any wet or soft wall found behind the old shower is fixed before they go on.
The glass
A curtain adds nothing; one fixed panel is the middle ground; a hinged door with a return panel costs the most. Standard glass we install ourselves, custom pieces go through the local glass companies we work with, and either is priced once the opening is measured.

Bath remodel cost in Broken Arrow

Broken Arrow questions, answered straight

What does a bathroom remodel cost in Broken Arrow?

A full remodel, down to the studs with everything new, usually runs $10,000 to $25,000, and our smallest jobs start in the $2,500 to $5,000 range. What pushes a Broken Arrow bathroom toward the top is mostly layout: moving a drain in the slab, growing the shower into the old tub corner, or redoing the vanity wall at the same time. Each of those shows up as its own line on your quote. What moves the cost.

How much is a walk-in shower in Broken Arrow?

Our two closest documented showers both landed between about $7,000 and $8,500: a tiled shower with a half-inch ledge in Bixby at about $7,000 to $7,500, and a curbless roll-in shower in Glenpool at about $7,000 to $8,500. Yours depends on the entry, the drain and the size, which the guide on this page walks through, and it is priced after we see the room.

Do you work in every part of Broken Arrow?

Yes. We are based in Tulsa and come out for every estimate, whether the house is a few blocks from the Rose District or in a subdivision finished last year. Neighbors in Bixby, Coweta and Catoosa get the same visit.

Can you turn a tub into a safe walk-in shower in Broken Arrow?

Yes, and in most houses here it fits in the tub's own space. We take out the tub, build the shower floor with a low ledge or no curb, waterproof it, and add a seat, a hand shower on a slide bar and blocking in the walls for grab bars. Tub to shower conversion.

Do you add grab bars and comfort-height toilets?

Yes. A grab bar is only as strong as what it is screwed into, so we put wood blocking inside the wall and place each bar where the person reaches as they sit, stand and turn. A taller toilet beside a bar is one of the simplest safety changes in the room. Toilets and bidets.

Will the VA help pay for a veteran's bathroom in Broken Arrow?

It can pay part, when a VA doctor prescribes the change for a medical reason. The HISA benefit covers up to $6,800 over a veteran's lifetime for a service-connected condition or a disability rated 50% or more, and up to $2,000 otherwise. We never trim materials or labor to fit that limit: anything the prescription does not cover, such as a curbless shower in place of an approved curbed one, is billed to you and gone over line by line. How we work with the VA.

Can you update a Rose District restaurant or office restroom for ADA?

Yes. We lay out clear floor space, grab bars, sink and mirror heights and signage to the 2010 ADA Standards for shops, offices and restaurants, and we book the work around the hours you are open. On site, restroom work runs from 2 days to about a week. ADA restroom compliance.
