Lithonia is a granite town on the east side of metro Atlanta, in DeKalb County, where historic quarries once cut the stone that built streets and buildings across the region.
Arabia Mountain and its heritage area sit just outside town, and a small historic downtown on Main Street anchors ranch and split-level subdivisions from the 1960s through the 1990s.
For Lithonia homeowners, Being Sauna arranges wet-area help: vetted local specialists, honest planning ranges published up front, and a free in-home assessment ending in a written quote.
In short: Bathroom remodeling in Lithonia, Georgia covers the wet area: tub-to-shower conversions ($8,500–$17,000), shower replacement ($7,500–$15,000), walk-in showers ($9,000–$18,000) and tub replacement ($6,500–$13,000). Vetted local specialists serve Lithonia and its two ZIP codes. Call (833) 334-4470.
Six services, one specialty — the tub and shower. Each card links to its full guide, and the ranges below are what Lithonia homeowners actually plan around.
Start with the guide that matches your room, then compare it with the cost table further down the page. For the full picture, see all our bathroom remodeling services.
Many Lithonia baths still hold a tub that is stepped over far more than soaked in, especially in ranch and split-level subdivisions from the 1960s through the 1990s. A low-entry shower takes its place, with pan, valve and drain renewed together.
A tired Lithonia shower shows its age in a valve that drifts hot and cold, stained grout, or a pan worn by years of daily use. Pan, valve and walls are replaced together, with the drain checked while the room is open.
A low-entry shower with a bench, anchored grab bars and controls within reach helps a Lithonia home stay workable as needs change. Blocking for the bars goes into real structure behind the wall, not just the surface.
Some Lithonia households still want a real tub — for young children, for a long soak, or for a second bath in a busy family home. A deeper modern tub usually fits within two days, with fresh plumbing and a sealed surround.
A shower-only Lithonia home can get a tub back without moving walls. A tub-shower combination returns, with renewed plumbing underneath and waterproofing behind the walls, built to stand up to daily family use.
Whole-room reworks suit Lithonia baths where tub and shower both need attention at once, or where an older ranch bath needs a fresh start. One project, one written quote, with the wet area rebuilt first.
A tub-to-shower conversion turns the unused tub in a Lithonia bath into a low-entry shower — pan, valve and drain renewed together.
Lithonia sits in the east metro Atlanta contractor market, with crews working across the city and toward Stone Mountain, Conyers, Snellville and Decatur.
Most jobs land in the middle of these ranges, and the spread comes from the building, not the ZIP. A straightforward subdivision swap is an easier job than an older ranch bath whose plumbing, tile and ventilation all need work at once.
The upper half of a range is priced in the written quote before work begins. For the method behind every figure, see the 2026 bathroom remodeling cost guide.

Lithonia sits in DeKalb County on the east side of metro Atlanta, with Stone Mountain, Conyers, Snellville, Decatur, Covington and Tucker nearby.
The housing mix, water setup and Georgia seasons all shape how a wet-area project is planned here, so each one is covered below.
Lithonia housing runs from houses near the small historic downtown on Main Street to ranch and split-level subdivisions built from the 1960s through the 1990s. Repeat floor plans make planning predictable, but no two baths price alike.
The room is measured first and the drain route is confirmed before anything is priced. Older supply lines and worn pans are checked early, before walls are closed up.
Most Lithonia homes use city water, while some homes on the outskirts may use wells and septic systems. The visit confirms the setup for that home before options are priced, including the water heater and shut-off locations.
Hard water and mineral buildup are worth a look at the visit, since they wear valves and showerheads over time. Ventilation gets checked too, so humid Georgia air does not linger in the bath.
Lithonia summers are hot and humid, so ventilation matters most in July and August. Fans are checked so the bath clears steam fast, and sealed walls keep moisture out of the structure.
Winters are mild but can bring occasional freezes, so exposed pipes are checked before the cold arrives. Most wet-area projects still finish in one to three days, whatever the season.
Lithonia takes its name from the Greek word for stone, and the granite quarries around town once supplied stone across the region. That quarry heritage still shows in old stone buildings and walls near Main Street.
Arabia Mountain rises just outside town, inside the Arabia Mountain National Heritage Area, with trails and exposed granite outcrops. The mountain and the quarries give Lithonia a character few Atlanta suburbs share.

Nothing fancy — just a few things that help the specialist price your Lithonia bath on the first visit. Know the home type: historic Main Street house, ranch home, or split-level subdivision home.
Note any history of slow drains, temperature swings, low pressure, or stained grout. If the home has hard-water buildup on fixtures, mention it so the visit can check valves and showerheads properly.
Settle which outcome matters most first — a tub kept for children, a low-entry shower for older residents, or a full-room rework — so the quote prices the right job.

Lithonia homes include houses near the small historic downtown on Main Street and ranch and split-level subdivisions built from the 1960s through the 1990s. Many baths still hold their original tub, tile and valve. A visit measures the room and checks the drain route before any option is priced.
