Fast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across Miami Gardens
Bathroom remodeling in Miami Gardens typically runs $10,620-$33,040 for a full project, with a small bathroom landing closer to $5,900-$14,160. Those numbers come from actual jobs we’ve priced across 33056, not a national formula. If you live near Hard Rock Stadium or off NW 27th Avenue and you’re staring at a tub that’s older than your mortgage, call (877) 610-1318. We’ll send someone out to walk the space, check what’s behind the walls, and give you a written scope before you spend a dime.
Here’s the thing about Miami Gardens homes that most contractors from outside the county never figure out: your bathroom sits inside a CBS block house built before Hurricane Andrew, where the plumbing chases run through walls that were never meant to carry modern fixtures. That matters. A vanity swap isn’t always a vanity swap. A shower pan replacement can reveal a slab issue tied to the high water table. We know because we’ve been opening up these walls long enough to expect it.

Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Miami Gardens’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
Tom Barrett founded this company in 1998, and his sons run the crews that show up in Miami Gardens. That’s not a slogan. That’s who answers the phone when you call, and who stands in your bathroom with a tape measure when the estimate happens. We’ve remodeled bathrooms in communities around Carol City, Lake Lucerne, and Scott Lake long enough that neighbors recommend us to neighbors, and we take that personally.
Customers in Miami Gardens have told us the same story more times than we can count: a national outfit quoted one price over the phone, sent a crew nobody recognized, and handed over a bill that looked nothing like the quote. We don’t play that game. Every price change arrives as a written change order before a single nail moves. An allowance that isn’t on paper is a surprise waiting for a date, and we don’t do surprises. If you want to verify who we are, Tom Barrett publishes his name, address, and license number. Look it up before you sign anything. Ask anyone on your street. The permit inspector works for you, not for me, and that’s why I like him.
Response time to Miami Gardens is quick because our Miami office coordinates scheduling locally, and the crew doesn’t have to fight across three counties to reach you. A live person answers calls 24/7, not a voicemail box in another state.
Our Bathroom Remodeling Services in Miami Gardens
We handle everything from a basic vanity swap to a full gut-and-rebuild of the bathroom in a 1950s CBS ranch off NW 7th Avenue. Each scope gets priced the same way: we look at what’s there, we ask what you want, we write it down. Here’s what Miami Gardens homeowners call us for most often.
Full Bathroom Remodeling
A complete rework of the space, from the slab up. In Miami Gardens, that usually means addressing old galvanized supply lines, replacing a failing mortar bed under the tile, and squaring up wall framing that settled over sixty or seventy years. We pull the permit, schedule the Dade County inspection, and you get a schedule that accounts for the concrete block construction most of these homes share.

Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling
Walk-in shower installation in Miami Gardens runs $5,310-$14,160 depending on whether you’re keeping the existing footprint or expanding into a tub alcove. We build the pan with a proper slope and waterproofing system that stands up to the humidity of South Florida, and we spec fixtures you can actually find replacement parts for, not boutique brands that disappear in three years.

Tub-to-Shower Conversion
This is the single most requested scope in the 33056 zip code, and for good reason. Those deep cast-iron tubs in Miami Gardens ranches are dangerous for anyone over sixty, and they hog square footage. A tub-to-shower conversion costs $4,130-$11,800 and usually takes us four to six working days. We cap the old drain, run the new shower valve through the existing chase, and install a low-threshold pan with grab-bar blocking behind the wall. If you need the shower to be curbless for mobility now or later, tell us at the estimate, and we’ll frame for it from day one.

Vanities, Tile & Fixtures
Vanity installation runs $945-$3,540, and tile work is priced by the square foot after we check the substrate. Miami Gardens humidity means cementitious backer board, not drywall, behind any wet-area tile. That’s not an upgrade, it’s the only correct way, and inspectors here know the difference. We carry composite and plywood cabinet boxes that don’t swell in the wet season, and we set vanities with the plumbing accessible, not buried behind a fake drawer front.
For homes that also need exterior work, we handle Roofing in Miami Gardens and Windows & Doors in Miami Gardens with the same written-scope discipline, and our Bathroom Remodeling team handles everything from the first demo swing to the final caulk line. We serve all of Miami Gardens and the surrounding neighborhoods.

Trusted Brands We Service in Miami Gardens
If your shower enclosure is a PGT or Simonton product, we service it without a second thought, and we stock common parts so you’re not waiting on a freight shipment. Where it matters, we lean on products with Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance numbers already on file, because the inspection isn’t optional and substitution isn’t allowed. For bath fixtures, we order through local supply houses that keep inventory in South Florida, not a drop-ship warehouse in Ohio. That means fewer delays when the summer storms push every schedule sideways.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Miami Gardens Homes
- Wet-season wall swelling. June through November humidity seeps through old drywall behind tile and turns it to chalk. We find this in nearly every original 1960s bathroom, and it dictates backer board choices and waterproofing scope.
- CBS wall plumbing chases. Concrete block construction means moving a sink or toilet drain isn’t a simple stud-bay reroute. It takes a saw-cut and a patch that has to keep the wall’s structural integrity intact. We’ve done enough of them in Miami Gardens to know where the rebar sits.
- High-water-table slab issues. Miami Gardens sits on flat limestone with groundwater close to the surface. A cracked shower pan that’s been leaking for years can turn the slab edge soft. We check before we tile, and we write the repair into the change order if we find it.
- Pre-Andrew window openings. Many older Miami Gardens ranch homes still have the original unchecked openings, and a bathroom remodel that touches an exterior wall often reveals rot or non-impact glazing. We coordinate that work so one permit covers it, and the inspector signs one final.

FAQs - Bathroom Remodeling in Miami Gardens
After we finalize the written scope and pull the permit, most Miami Gardens bathroom remodels start within two to four weeks depending on material lead times and the Dade County permit queue. We schedule around the winter dry season as much as possible, because the June-November rains slow every trade, and rushing a wet-season demo creates more problems than it solves. Call (877) 610-1318 and ask for a start-date range based on your specific scope.
Yes. We work off NW 27th Avenue, up near the stadium, through Carol City, Scott Lake, Lake Lucerne, and every pocket of the 33056 zip code. The estimate is free, and there’s no trip charge inside Miami-Dade County.
For a burst supply line or a shower pan failing and dumping water into the ceiling below, we can usually route a crew the same day if weather permits. A live person answers the phone 24/7, so you’ll reach a human who can tell you honestly whether it can wait until morning. Call (877) 610-1318 and describe what you’re seeing.
Miami-Dade’s HVHZ code requires specific product approvals and inspected methods that simply don’t apply in most of the country, and that adds cost. Every window, waterproofing assembly, and structural connector has to carry a Miami-Dade NOA, and the inspector will check. Contractors who quote Broward prices and try to duck the code don’t pass inspection, and you pay twice. Our Miami Gardens pricing reflects the code compliance baked in, not a hidden markup. For an exact number, call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll write it down.
Every bathroom remodeling job carries our written 90-Day Done Right Promise. If it’s not done right, Tom Barrett comes back and makes it right, one call. That’s on the contract, not in fine print. Materials carry their own manufacturer warranties, and we register those for you in your name, not ours.
Call (877) 610-1318 to schedule your free estimate on bathroom remodeling in Miami Gardens. We’ll walk the space, write the scope, and give you a number you can hold us to.
