We’re Bathroom Remodeling contractors who’ve spent decades working on the exact housing stock you live in: 1960s through 1980s ranch and split-level homes built long before fire-hardening codes existed. That matters here more than most places, and we’ll get into why in a minute.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Cameron Park’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
Barrett & Sons Construction started in 1998, and Tom Barrett still answers his own phone. That’s not a marketing line, it’s just how we work. When a homeowner in Cameron Park calls about a bathroom that’s gone soft in the subfloor or a shower pan that’s leaked into the crawlspace, they’re talking to the person whose name is on the contract and on the side of the truck.
Cameron Park sits in an unincorporated part of El Dorado County, which means every permit routes through the county building department in Placerville, not a local city hall. We know those routes, those inspectors, and the specific Chapter 7A requirements that apply to most remodels here. That local knowledge keeps projects from stalling at the permit counter while you’re waiting to use your bathroom again.
Customers in Cameron Park consistently tell us the same thing: they’d been burned before by an out-of-town outfit that quoted one number on the phone and delivered a different one at the end. That’s why every scope, every allowance, every change order here comes to you in writing before a single nail moves. Tom’s sons run the crews. They’re not dispatched labor from a call center.
Our Bathroom Remodeling Services in Cameron Park
Full Bathroom Remodeling
A full gut-and-rebuild in Cameron Park means pulling everything down to the studs, which almost always reveals something the original 1970s builder left behind: galvanized supply lines, unvented plumbing, or framing that needs to be brought current. We handle the whole job, permits included, from demolition to the final inspection sign-off with El Dorado County. Most full remodels here run $9,000 to $28,000 depending on footprint and finish level.
Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling
Walk-in showers are the single most requested upgrade we see in Cameron Park homes, especially among homeowners planning to age in place. Curbless entries, linear drains, and plank tile that runs wall to wall. Smaller stalls and shower replacements in this area typically run $4,500 to $12,000, with custom glass enclosures adding to that number depending on sizing.
Tub-to-Shower Conversion
Older Cameron Park ranches often have a single hallway bath with a standard 60-inch tub that nobody uses. Converting it to a low-profile shower changes how the whole house works. These conversions run $3,500 to $10,000 in this ZIP, and we handle the pan, the waterproofing, the valve replacement, and the finish work as one continuous job with written scope at every step.
Vanities, Tile & Fixtures
Not every Cameron Park bathroom needs a full gut. Sometimes you need a vanity that doesn’t have water damage under the cabinet, fixtures that don’t drip, and tile that wasn’t selected in a hurry thirty years ago. Vanity installation alone runs $800 to $3,000 here, with tile work priced by the square foot and material. We’ll help you pick materials that make sense for this foothill climate and this housing stock.

Trusted Brands We Service in Cameron Park
We install brands you can look up before you sign anything. For windows and glass work that sometimes ties into a bathroom remodel, we use Simonton and Ply Gem products. For the cabinetry and wet-area millwork, we lean on names like KraftMaid. When a Cameron Park homeowner wants a frameless glass shower enclosure, we measure and order from suppliers who cut to the actual dimensions of your specific shower, not a stock template. You’ll know the make and model of what’s going into your home before we order it.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Cameron Park Homes
- WUI-driven scope creep. Cameron Park sits inside El Dorado County’s Wildland-Urban Interface zone. When a permit threshold is crossed, Chapter 7A of the California Building Code can require ignition-resistant materials, ember-resistant vents, and upgraded flashing, even if the original scope was just a shower swap. We plan for that on day one, so the written change order covers it instead of surprising you at inspection.
- Foothill freeze-thaw damage. At 1,500 to 2,000 feet, Cameron Park sees winter freeze-thaw cycles that valley contractors rarely deal with. Exposed shower supply lines in uninsulated exterior walls, cracked grout that lets water behind tile, and deck pans that flex with temperature swings all show up here routinely.
- Sloped-lot drainage weirdness. Most Cameron Park lots sit on oak-studded slopes, which means the original builder’s venting and drain lines sometimes run at angles you’d never see on a flat Sacramento tract. A bathroom leak on a slab-on-grade section versus a raised foundation section changes the entire repair approach, and we’ve seen both on the same street off French Creek Road.
- 1960s-1980s plumbing at the end of its life. The master-planned build-out of Cameron Park happened before modern water conservation standards, which means original galvanized or thin-wall copper supply lines are hitting end of life about now. Pinhole leaks inside bathroom walls are a frequent discovery, and they’re cheaper to address during a remodel than after the sheetrock is back up.

Bathroom remodels in Cameron Park run in the same broad range as El Dorado Hills and Placerville, typically $9,000 to $28,000 for a full bathroom, but a few local factors can nudge costs up: WUI material requirements, sloped-lot drainage work, and the extra permit routing through the county building department. That’s why comparing bids from contractors who know the Cameron Park market against flatland Sacramento prices usually gives you a misleading number. Get a written line-item estimate and look at what’s actually in it.
Only if the project scope changes, and only if you approve it in writing first. Every change order at Barrett & Sons Construction gets written, quoted, and signed before the work happens.

No surprise invoices at the end. Call (877) 610-1318 if you want to talk through what that looks like.
