Older homes in Collinsville, OK
Two Collinsvilles, one small hall bath
Half the town's homes were built in 2002 or later, yet one in ten is older than 1940. We checked the public records on both, and they point to the same room: a small bathroom asked to do a lot.

What that means for a Collinsville bathroom
-
A bathroom that came after the house
Two out of three Oklahoma homes had no complete plumbing in 1940, so in a house that old the bathroom was most likely fitted in later: a closed-in porch, a corner of a bedroom, a room under the roof slope. That is why these rooms come in odd shapes. Before we quote, we look at the floor framing under the tub and toilet and at how the drain was run, and we draw the layout around the room you actually have.Source 2
-
One hall bath for three bedrooms
58% of Collinsville homes have three bedrooms, against about 42% across Tulsa County. In those houses the hall bath is often a 5 by 8 foot room with a 60-inch tub, a toilet and a single sink in a row, shared by the kids, the guests and whoever is up first. The work there is making about 40 square feet do more, usually without moving a drain.Source 1
-
Money where you will feel it
The median Collinsville home is valued at about $225,400. In a house like that we would rather spend on the shower, the waterproofing and the floor than on moving the toilet across the room, because moving a drain means opening the floor, and on a concrete slab that means cutting it. If a layout change is worth it, we price it as its own line so you can decide.Source 1

Houses near the Depot District
In 2024 the city created a Historic Preservation District downtown, and Main Street now goes by the Depot District. If your house is in or near it, anything that changes how the house looks from the street may fall under the district's rules, so ask the city before planning it. Our work stays inside the bathroom, and we do not replace windows, so an original one stays as it is.Source 4

Bathroom renovation Collinsville
Which Collinsville bathroom do you have?
When the house was built tells us what is likely under the floor and behind the tile. Pick yours to see what we would check first and what we would build.
Before 1940
A room fitted into an old house
A bathroom added to an early 1900s house often has a sloped ceiling, a window where the shower wants to go, and a floor that has carried a heavy tub for decades. We keep what gives the room its character, like a hex floor or a vintage vanity, and rebuild the wet walls and floor properly underneath.
- Floor framing checked under the tub and toilet
- A window in the shower wall sealed into the waterproofing
- Shower head height checked under a sloped ceiling
1950s to 1990s
Same footprint, better shower
The 1970s built more Collinsville homes than any decade before 2000, about one in eight. Their hall baths usually have a tub-shower behind a curtain and tile or fiberglass that has done its time. If someone in the house still takes baths, we retile around a new tub with a niche. If nobody does, a walk-in shower takes the same space.
- No walls moved, no drain moved
- Tile over cement or foam board, never green board
- A new Delta valve, set to Delta's specs by our plumber
Built since 2000
Past the builder's first finish
More than half of Collinsville's homes are this young. If yours came with a one-piece fiberglass shower in the primary bath, it may be starting to dull or flex underfoot. We swap the stall for a tiled walk-in with a glass panel and a niche, or for acrylic or solid-surface walls if you prefer, sized to the space it leaves, and match the new hardware to your kitchen.
- A tiled walk-in, or new panels, where the stall was
- Safety glass, hung to swing out of the shower
- Finishes matched to the rest of the house
Small bathroom remodel Collinsville
Five feet by eight: what fits, and what we would leave out
Four decisions shape a small bathroom. For each one we say what Oklahoma's residential code requires (source 5 above) and, separately, what we recommend. The code is the floor. Our recommendations are opinions from building these rooms.
Tub or shower in a 5 by 8 room
Decide by who bathes, then by what the room's ceiling and floor allow.
- Our advice: keep one tub in the house
- If this is your only tub and there are small children, or a dog that needs washing, keep it. If there is another tub, or nobody uses this one, the shower is the better use of the space.
- Code: the shower's minimum size
- At least 900 square inches inside and 30 inches across (IRC P2708.1). A 60 by 30 inch tub space gives about 1,800, twice the minimum.
- Code: headroom at the shower head
- 6 feet 8 inches of ceiling over a 30 by 30 inch area at the shower head (IRC R305.1). Under a sloped ceiling in an old house, this decides which end the shower goes on.
- Our advice on curbs
- A low curb is the simple choice. A curbless floor on a concrete slab means cutting the slab to drop the drain, so we price it as its own line and you decide if it is worth it.
The doors: swing, pocket or sliding glass
In a small room, the door decides whether the layout works at all.
- Code: the door counts
- The 21 inches clear in front of a toilet or sink is measured to any wall, fixture or door (P2705.1). A door that swings into the toilet does not pass.
- Our advice on pocket doors
- A pocket door frees the floor, but it needs about a door's width of empty wall beside the opening: no pipes, no switch, no outlet. In a plaster-walled old house it is a bigger job, so we look inside that wall first.
- Sliding glass on a tub
- Two bypass panels leave a little under half the width open, the narrowest way in and a hard step for anyone unsteady. On a walk-in shower, the code wants at least 22 inches of clear opening (P2708.1.1).
- Hinged glass on a walk-in
- Code: glass facing a tub or shower must be safety glass (IRC R308.4.5). Our advice: hang it to swing out, so it never traps water or blocks anyone who needs to help.
Vanity depth and the space around the toilet
Three inches of cabinet can be the difference between a room that passes and one that pinches.
- Code: 15 and 21 inches
- A toilet's center sits at least 15 inches from any side wall, partition or vanity, with at least 21 inches clear in front of it and of the sink.
- Oklahoma's own rule
- Oklahoma's version of the code lets a vanity top reach up to 1.5 inches into the toilet's space (OAC 748:20-6-32). Allowed, but we would rather not use it.
- Our advice: a shallower cabinet
- Most stock vanities are about 21 inches deep. An 18-inch cabinet gives back 3 inches of floor in front of it, which you notice every time you dry off.
| Code minimum | What we plan for | |
|---|---|---|
| Toilet center to a wall or vanity | 15 inches | 18 inches, so a grab bar fits beside it |
| Clear floor in front of a toilet or sink | 21 inches | 30 inches or more |
| Vanity top over the toilet's space | Up to 1.5 inches (Oklahoma) | None |
| Shower opening | 22 inches clear | 24 inches or more, 32 for a shower chair |
| Fresh air | A 3 square foot window (half of it opening), or a 50 cfm fan | Your call; any fan we install goes in to the maker's specs |
Storage in the wall, not on it
A tiled niche holds what a corner shelf would, and gives up no elbow room.
- Between two studs
- Wall studs are usually 16 inches apart on center, so a niche between them is about 14 inches wide and takes no space from the shower.
- Our advice: never on an outside wall
- A niche there means less insulation behind it, and in a cold snap that pocket of tile turns into a cold spot where moisture collects. We put it on an inside wall.
- Inside the waterproofing
- The membrane wraps into the niche, and its bottom slopes toward the shower so water runs out instead of sitting in a grout line.
- Why not corner shelves
- In a shower 30 or 36 inches wide, a shelf is one more thing to bump and one more ledge to scrub. A niche gives you a flat, tiled shelf inside the wall.

Small-room jobs from across the metro
Our documented projects so far are south of Tulsa, in Bixby and Glenpool. Each is the kind of job a Collinsville hall or primary bath often needs, and each page shows the scope, what turned up, and the price range from the signed quote where there is one.
-
Fiberglass tub out, tiled shower in
A fiberglass tub and shower combo with a curtain, in a Bixby home. We turned it into a tiled walk-in shower with marble-look walls, a pebble mosaic floor, corner shelves and a hand shower on a slide bar.
-
A half-inch ledge, built for a wheelchair
A Bixby homeowner's master shower was a worn acrylic stall with a step-over threshold. We built a tiled walk-in shower with a half-inch ledge a wheelchair can cross, grab bars, a niche and a light overhead.
-
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.

What people ask before a Collinsville remodel
What does a small bathroom remodel cost in Collinsville?
Our minimum job is $2,500 to $5,000, and most full remodels fall between $10,000 and $25,000. For a shower on its own, a recent Bixby walk-in shower with grab bars and a niche came to about $7,000 to $7,500. A whole hall bath (tile, tub or shower, vanity and toilet) is priced after we see the room, because the floor under the old tub and the condition of the drain decide a lot of it.
Do you remodel older homes near downtown Collinsville?
Yes. In a house from before 1940 we start with what you cannot see: the framing under the tub and toilet, the drain, and the supply lines. If your home sits in the city's Historic Preservation District, the district's rules cover what shows from the street; our work stays inside the bathroom, and we leave windows as they are. Your quote says plainly what could change once the old floor is open.
Do you offer financing for a Collinsville bathroom remodel?
Not ourselves. People who want to spread the cost usually go to a local lender, and Tulsa Teachers Credit Union, Arvest and Regent Bank all lend for remodels. Bring them our itemized quote: it lists the work and the materials line by line.
Do you install walk-in tubs for seniors in Collinsville?
Yes. In a 5 by 8 hall bath, a walk-in tub usually goes in the old tub's 60-inch space. Before you buy, know which side the drain is on, that the tub has to fit through the bathroom door, and that it needs enough hot water to fill it, per the maker's specs. Should the water heater need checking, that falls to our on-site plumber or one we recommend. In a tight room, a walk-in shower with a fold-down seat is sometimes the better answer, and we will tell you if we think so. Walk-in tubs.
Can you add grab bars and a seat in a Collinsville bathroom?
Yes. The best time is while the wall is open, when we add wood blocking so each bar holds real weight. A fold-down seat has to leave the shower at its legal size when folded up, so in a 30-inch shower we measure before choosing one. Wheelchair accessibility.
Does the VA help pay for a safer bathroom?
Yes, for a veteran whose VA doctor prescribes the change for a medical reason. The VA's HISA benefit pays up to $6,800 over a veteran's lifetime for a service-connected condition or a rating of 50% or more, and up to $2,000 otherwise. It covers what was prescribed. Anything you choose beyond that is billed to you and gone over line by line, and we never trim the materials or labor to fit the VA's limit. How we work with the VA.
Can you update a Main Street restroom in Collinsville to ADA standards?
Yes. We plan the clearances, grab bars, fixtures and signage to the 2010 ADA Standards, and in an older downtown building we check the floor and drain before promising a layout. We agree on the schedule before we start, and most commercial restrooms take 2 days to a week. ADA restroom compliance.
