Bathroom Remodeling in Overland Park, KS
A bathroom remodel is one of the few renovations you experience every single day. We design and build every bathroom ourselves, as one team, from the first sketch through the final walkthrough. There’s no separate designer and contractor for you to coordinate between.
Timberhaus Studio is a Kansas City design-build studio, and Overland Park is part of our regular service area. The typical home here was built around 1988, during the growth spurt that more than doubled the city’s population since the 1970s. That means a lot of bathrooms are still running on original tile, tubs, and vanities nearly four decades old. We take on bathrooms ranging from a cosmetic update to a full layout reconfiguration, including powder rooms and primary suites. That covers converting a tub to a walk-in shower, building custom cabinetry for a vanity, or reworking the whole footprint.

Three Ways We Scope a Bathroom
- Refresh. Same layout, new finishes: vanity, countertop, fixtures, lighting, paint. The fastest path to a bathroom that looks and feels new.
- Full Remodel. New fixtures and finishes throughout, still within your bathroom’s existing footprint. Tile, tub or shower, vanity, all in materials built to last.
- Reconfigured. Plumbing and walls move. This is for bathrooms where the layout itself, not just the finishes, isn’t working for how you actually use the space.
Permits in Overland Park
Overland Park runs building permits through its online ePLACE system. Initial completeness review takes about 3 business days, with full plan review typically running 15 to 21 business days. A bathroom remodel that moves plumbing or changes structure needs a permit. We build that timeline into your project schedule from the start.
Common Questions
Do you work on bathrooms in Overland Park?
Yes. Overland Park is part of our regular service area, and it covers a lot of ground. Older mid-century homes in the north with compact original baths, newer construction further south with different constraints entirely. We scope each one on its own terms.
Do I need a permit for a bathroom remodel in Overland Park?
If you’re moving plumbing or changing the structure, yes. Overland Park requires a residential building permit through its ePLACE system, with review typically taking 15–21 business days. We pull and manage that permit as part of the project.
Who will actually be in my home?
James stays hands-on through every phase of the build, along with trade partners we’ve worked with for years. You’re not handed off to a rotating crew you’ve never met, and you’re not left guessing who’s in your house.
How much should I budget for a bathroom remodel?
Scope drives it more than size does. Keeping the layout and replacing finishes is a very different number than moving plumbing and reworking the room. Our Investment page breaks down what actually drives cost, and you get a real figure during Design, before anything gets torn out.
Can you build a curbless or zero-entry shower?
Yes. We rebuilt a Kansas City bathroom around a curbless, zero-entry shower: no lip to step over, custom tile, and a layout that works now and keeps working as needs change. It’s one of the more common requests we get from homeowners planning ahead.
