Commercial restroom remodels, Inola

Your house on the land, or your business in town

At home, we plan the bathroom around everyone who bathes in it, from a toddler to a grandparent. For an Inola shop, church, office or public building, the restrooms get ADA-minded planning and a schedule that works around your hours.

Out past the river, on a few acres

Inola is a small town on the far side of the Verdigris River from Tulsa, and most people with an Inola address live on land outside it. Here is what the public record says about those houses and the families in them, and what it means for the tubs and showers inside.

The Inola area, by the numbers

have someone 65 or older living there About 780 households, close to the number raising children.

What that means for the tubs in your house

  1. In town, often the only tub

    The Oklahoma Historical Society counts 294 people in Inola in 1950 and 1,550 in 1980, the years it became a town people commuted to Tulsa from. The Census puts the median house inside the town limits at 1975, with about 4 in 10 built in the 1960s and 70s. A house from then may have one full bathroom, so its tub is the only one, and taking it out is a bigger decision than it looks.Source 1

  2. Out on the land, newer houses with two baths

    Across the wider Inola area the median home was built in 1986, and about a third went up in 2000 or later. Newer country houses are more likely to have two full bathrooms, and then the choice is easy: turn the tub nobody fills into a shower and keep the other one.Source 2

  3. Toddlers in one house, grandparents in the next

    With about a third of households raising children and a third with someone 65 or older, the tub question cuts both ways here. One family needs a tub to bathe a two-year-old. The next needs to stop stepping over one. When the grandkids come to stay, it can be the same house on the same weekend.

  4. The door you come in by after chores

    The town says farming and ranching are common on the acreage around it. If your day ends with hay, cattle or a garden, the bathroom nearest the back door takes the mud, and sometimes the dog. A walk-in shower there, with a low curb, a floor that grips and a hand shower on a long hose, earns its keep in a way a tub in that spot never will.Source 3

  5. When the honest answer is a second bathroom

    A family with one full bath may need a tub for the kids and an easy shower for a parent at the same time. Sometimes the fix is a second bathroom, and on a few acres there is usually room to build one; we build those too. And if the one bathroom you have is the one being remodeled, the family keeps a working toilet the whole time.

Flowchart for deciding whether to keep a bathtub or convert it to a walk-in shower, by asking whether it is the only tub, whether someone struggles to step in, who still bathes in it, and whether a sale is coming
Keep the tub, or convert it? Four questions, in the order that settles it. The buyer figure is from the National Association of Home Builders' 2024 What Home Buyers Really Want survey.

Walk-in shower remodels in Inola

Where does your Inola house sit?

Where the house is and when it went up says a lot about how many tubs it has, and which one can go. Choose the closest match.

In town

Keep the only tub, make it easier to use

If the hall bath holds the one tub in the house and there are small children at home, we would rather replace a tired tub and surround than take it away. A new tub, tile on cement board or a solid-surface panel surround, a hand shower on a slide bar and wood blocking in the wall for grab bars make it safer now and easy to convert later.

  • A hand shower that works from a seat

Tub to shower conversion Inola, OK

Which tub stays, and which becomes a shower

Our position: keep one tub in the house for as long as someone in it needs one, and convert the rest. Here is how to tell which tub that is, which bathroom to change, and what you give up when a tub goes.

Who in your house still needs a tub

Count the people, and the dog, before you measure anything.

A baby or a toddler
Little ones get bathed by someone kneeling beside a tub. Until the youngest can shower on their own, most families want at least one tub they can reach.
A dog
A walk-in shower with a hand shower and a low curb washes most dogs without anyone kneeling on tile. A big dog that will not stand still is the best argument for a tub.
Someone who soaks
If anyone soaks after a long day or for sore joints, that tub is earning its space. Keep it, or put a freestanding tub inside the shower, as we did in a south Tulsa wet room.
The next owner
In the National Association of Home Builders' 2024 survey of more than 3,000 recent and prospective buyers, 78% rated a shower and a tub in the primary bath as essential or desirable. We read that as: keep a tub somewhere, not in every bathroom.

Which bathroom to convert

Usually the one used every day by whoever finds the tub wall hard.

The bath of the person who struggles
A bad hip, a new knee or a walker decides it. Convert the bathroom that person uses, and let the other one keep its tub.
A big primary tub nobody fills
A garden or jetted tub in the primary bath is usually the easiest tub to give up: the room is bigger, and the hall bath still has one.
The one nearest the back door
On a working place, convert the bathroom that takes the mud, and keep the cleaner one inside the house for baths.
When there is only one
Then weigh who lives there now. Young kids or a sale within a few years: keep it and make it easier to use. Nobody bathes, or someone cannot step in safely: convert it, and we will say plainly what it may mean when you sell.

What converting changes

The build itself is laid out on our tub to shower conversion page. These are the trade-offs for your decision.

Nothing to climb over
The way in drops to a low curb, or none at all. For anyone unsteady on their feet, that is the whole point.
Bath time moves
School-age kids do fine in a shower with a hand shower. A baby is back to the kitchen sink or a portable tub, unless another bathroom keeps one.
A floor that holds water by itself
With the tub gone, the shower floor has to be sloped and waterproofed on its own. How we build a conversion.
Room for a seat, and bars later
A 60-inch tub space fits a bench or a fold-down seat. Blocking goes into the open wall so grab bars can go up whenever they are needed.

Tub conversions around the metro

A tub that went, a tub that stayed

We have no finished Inola job on the site yet. These nearby ones show both answers: a garden tub turned into a tiled shower in east Tulsa, a soaking tub kept inside a wet room in south Tulsa, and a tub and shower combo made into a walk-in in Bixby. Each card names its own town.

    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.

Bathroom remodel cost in Inola, OK

What Inola homeowners want to know first

What does a bathroom remodel cost in Inola, OK?

A full remodel usually runs $10,000 to $25,000, and the smallest job we take is $2,500 to $5,000. For a sense of where yours might land: a curbless walk-in shower in Bixby came to about $7,000 to $7,500, and an east Tulsa master bath where the garden tub became a tiled shower and the vanities were rebuilt came to about $22,000 to $23,000. Yours is priced after we see the room, in an itemized written quote.

How long does a tub-to-shower conversion take in Inola, OK?

A full bathroom remodel takes us about a week, up to two with detailed tile, and a conversion on its own is usually less. A tiled conversion takes more than a day, since the shower floor's waterproofing has to cure before tile goes on. If speed matters most, we also install one-day shower kits and wall panel systems. Work usually starts 1 to 2 weeks after you approve the quote, and the quote lists your days on site.

Do you remodel rural acreage homes around Inola, OK?

Yes, in town and out on the land, from a single tub swap to a second bathroom built onto a house that has only one. The estimate is free wherever the house sits.

Should we keep at least one bathtub in the house?

As long as someone in the house needs one, yes: a baby or toddler, a person who soaks, or a sale coming up. If there are two tubs and nobody bathes in one, convert it. If the only tub has become hard to step into, safety today comes first, and we will tell you what that may mean for resale.

Do you install grab bars and safe bathing for seniors in Inola, OK?

Yes. Grab bars go on wood blocking we add inside the wall, positioned for the person who will hold them, along with a hand shower on a slide bar, a seat, and a shower entry with a low curb or none. Wheelchair accessible bathrooms covers the bigger version.

Will the VA help pay to make an Inola bathroom safer?

Possibly, if a VA doctor prescribes the change for a medical reason. The VA's HISA benefit has a lifetime limit of $6,800 for a service-connected condition or a disability rated 50% or more, and $2,000 for other enrolled veterans. We do not trim materials or labor to fit that limit; anything beyond what the VA approved is billed to you and gone over line by line. How we work with the VA.

Do you remodel business restrooms in Inola and bring them up to ADA?

Yes. For shops, churches, offices and public buildings we plan clearances, grab bars, fixtures and signs to the 2010 ADA Standards, and we are a registered federal vendor (SAM). Most commercial restrooms take 2 days to a week, and where there are two, one can stay open during the work; that is your call. ADA restroom compliance.
