AfterFast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across North Fort Myers
A full bathroom remodel in North Fort Myers typically runs $9,000 to $28,000 for the homes we see along Bayshore Road and through the 33903, 33917, and 33918 ZIP codes. Smaller walk-in shower conversions and tub-to-shower swaps usually land between $3,500 and $12,000 depending on what’s behind the walls. If you’re off Del Prado Boulevard or back in one of the 55-plus communities near Slater Road, call (877) 610-1318 and Tom or one of his sons will give you a straight answer before we ever set foot on the slab.
We’re Bathroom Remodeling contractors who live with the same constraints you do: tight lots, shared driveways, post-Ian elevation certificates, and neighbors six feet from your wet wall. North Fort Myers isn’t Cape Coral. The lots are denser, the manufactured homes are older, and the flood-zone paperwork is heavier. We plan for all of it before the first tile gets set.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is North Fort Myers’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
Tom Barrett started this company in 1998 and he still answers the phone. Not a call center. Not a voicemail box. You call, a live person picks up, and if you have a question about your North Fort Myers remodel, you’ll talk to someone who actually knows your street. That matters more here than in most places because the rebuild work after Hurricane Ian put a lot of pressure on contractors to cut corners. We don’t.
Our crew members are Tom’s sons and their teams. Background-checked, uniformed, and carrying the Barrett & Sons name on every visit. When we pull up to a manufactured-home community off Bayshore Road or a concrete-block house off Pine Island Road, the people doing the work are the same people who wrote the estimate. No franchise dispatching strangers. No surprise faces at the door.
North Fort Myers homeowners have told us the same story for years: a big-name company quotes one price on the phone, shows up with another, and then hits them with change orders like they were part of the plan. Our price changes work differently. Every scope change, every allowance, every material upgrade arrives as a written change order before work happens. If it’s not on paper, it’s not part of the job. Tom puts that in every contract, right next to the 90-Day Done Right Promise: if it’s not done right, one call brings him back.
Our Bathroom Remodeling Services in North Fort Myers
Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling
Walk-in shower work is the most common request we get in North Fort Myers, and for good reason. Post-Ian rebuilds and aging 55-plus owners both point the same direction: low-threshold, curbless showers that work for aging knees and flood-zone compliance at the same time. We set Kohler and Moen pans on slabs that meet Lee County’s post-Ian freeboard requirements, and we pull permits on every eligible job. A typical walk-in shower remodel in North Fort Myers runs $4,500 to $12,000.
Tub-to-Shower Conversion
Converting a garden tub to a walk-in shower in a North Fort Myers manufactured home is rarely a simple swap. The original 2×3 rough-in often has to come out, and if the subfloor is soft from Ian’s surge, you’re looking at structural work before any waterproofing begins. We plan for this on every estimate, not after we’ve opened the wall. Tub-to-shower conversions in this area typically land between $3,500 and $10,000.
Small Bathroom Remodels
Guest baths in the 1960s and 70s concrete-block homes that line the neighborhoods off Hancock Bridge Parkway are small, often under 40 square feet. That’s fine. We work those tight footprints every week. A small bathroom remodel in North Fort Myers usually runs $5,000 to $12,000 depending on whether we’re moving plumbing or keeping the existing layout. Keeping the toilet and sink where they are saves real money and keeps the permit simpler.
Vanities, Tile & Fixtures
We install vanities, porcelain and ceramic tile, and fixtures from brands you can look up. No mystery material off the back of a van. Vanity installation alone runs $800 to $3,000. Tile work is priced by the square foot and the substrate conditions, which in North Fort Myers means we’re checking for slab cracks and Ian-era moisture before we lay a single tile. Tom publishes his name and license number. You can verify us before you ever sign.

Trusted Brands We Service in North Fort Myers
We install materials from manufacturers that stand behind their products, because the last thing a North Fort Myers homeowner needs after Ian is a warranty claim on a brand that no longer answers the phone. You’ll see Simonton and PGT windows on our trucks and in our quotes, and we carry what we need for the homes we service off Del Prado and throughout 33917. When you call for a free estimate, we can tell you exactly what’s going in your bathroom and who makes it.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in North Fort Myers Homes
- Post-Ian subfloor damage: That particle-board subfloor in a 1972 mobile home off Slater Road sat in surge water for days. It looks fine until we pull the tub. We check for termite damage and moisture rot on every estimate, because replacing a subfloor after the tile is set costs triple.
- Slabs below Base Flood Elevation: FEMA’s post-Ian reassessment moved a lot of North Fort Myers parcels into higher AE or VE zones. A bathroom sitting on a slab three or four feet below BFE needs an elevation certificate and often a flood-zone compliant shower pan. Skip that step and you could face a tear-out later.
- Tight-lot staging and parking: In a 55-plus park with a shared roadway, there is nowhere to park a dumpster without blocking a neighbor’s car. We pre-arrange parking and staging with the park management and Lee County before permits pull, so there’s no stop-work order mid-job.
- Shared walls and party-wall notice: Your neighbor’s manufactured home is six feet away. We send party-wall notice and keep noise inside work-hour rules. Your remodel shouldn’t become your neighbor’s problem, and a little paperwork up front keeps it from becoming ours.
Pricing for Bathroom Remodeling in North Fort Myers, FL
North Fort Myers sits in a post-Ian rebuild market where flood-zone compliance adds real cost that inland contractors never see. Here’s what we charge across the communities we serve in 33903, 33917, and 33918:
| Service | Price Range |
|---|---|

What moves your number is what’s behind the walls. A clean 1990s slab with no elevation issues is at the low end.

No surprise invoices at the end. Call (877) 610-1318 for a free estimate. Tom still comes out to look at North Fort Myers jobs himself.

FAQs - Bathroom Remodeling in North Fort Myers
Yes, in many cases. If Lee County’s post-Ian flood map places your lot in a higher AE or VE zone, any substantial improvement to the structure can trigger elevation certificate requirements. We coordinate the elevation certificate and pull permits before we set a single tile, so the inspection sign-off matches Lee County’s post-Ian requirements. Call (877) 610-1318 to find out if your specific lot needs one.
We pre-approve every parking and staging plan with you, your neighbors, and the park management or HOA before materials arrive. In a 55-plus community with a shared roadway, that means designated material drops, contained debris, and a written plan so no one blocks access. It’s part of the quote, not an afterthought.
Yes, and this is exactly the work we do most in North Fort Myers. We reframe the wet wall for the new shower, replace soft subfloor and any termite-eaten framing, and install a flood-zone compliant shower pan where the elevation requirements demand it. We’ve done this off Slater Road and throughout 33903. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll price the full scope, not a best-case scenario.
Most manufactured-home communities in North Fort Myers restrict construction noise to daytime weekday hours, often 8am to 6pm, and some require written notice to adjacent residents before work begins. We pull those park rules into our schedule before we start, and we keep noisy demo and cutting inside those windows. Your neighbors stay friendly and your project stays moving.
Because your neighbor deserves a written heads-up before our crew starts cutting tile within earshot of their bedroom. Six feet between homes is common across North Fort Myers, especially in the manufactured-home parks off Bayshore Road. Party-wall notice is a small courtesy that prevents complaints, stop-work orders, and a neighbor who won’t wave at you anymore. It’s a line item because it’s real work, and because skipping it has killed more remodels than bad tile ever did.
