Barrett & Sons Construction has been remodeling bathrooms in Sunset long enough to know what county inspectors will flag before the first tile comes off. That matters here. Sunset sits entirely in unincorporated Miami-Dade, which means every permit routes through the county’s HVHZ review process, not a smaller municipal office. You want a contractor who has pulled those permits more than once.

Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Sunset’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company

We’re not a franchise outfit sending strangers in a branded van. Tom Barrett started this company in 1998, and his sons run the crews that work in Sunset. When you call, a live person answers, 24/7. You’ll get Tom’s name, his license number, and his actual address. Look it up before you sign anything. That’s the point.

Sunset homeowners have a specific set of concerns. Many live in concrete block ranch homes built between 1965 and 1988. Those homes have original cast-iron plumbing, aluminum wiring in spots, and framing that predates Hurricane Andrew’s code changes. A bathroom remodel in this ZIP code is not a cosmetic project. It’s a code-compliance project that happens to include new tile. We plan for that on day one, not after demo surprises us.

Every job in Sunset gets a written scope, written allowances, and written change orders before any price moves. We pull permits on every eligible job because the inspector works for you, not for us, and the county inspector enforces the HVHZ product approval list without exception. If a waterproofing membrane or exhaust fan lacks a current Miami-Dade NOA, it fails. We install products that pass.

Expect a fair, fixed price in writing, background-checked crew members who carry the Barrett & Sons name, and a 90-Day Done Right Promise on the contract. If something isn’t right, Tom comes back. He lives twenty minutes away; he wants to know about it.

Our Bathroom Remodeling Services in Sunset

We handle the full range of Bathroom Remodeling work in Sunset, from a full gut renovation to a targeted shower upgrade. Here’s what Sunset homeowners most often call us for.

Full Bathroom Remodeling

A full bathroom remodel in Sunset means taking the room down to the studs and rebuilding it right. On a 1970s CBS ranch, that usually means replacing galvanized supply lines, addressing any slab-level drain issues, and bringing the room up to current county code before new tile, vanities, and fixtures go in. We coordinate the county inspection schedule so the job doesn’t stall waiting on a sign-off.

Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling

Walk-in showers are the top request we get in Sunset for aging-in-place renovations. Whether you’re adding a curbless entry or replacing a cramped fiberglass unit, the structure underneath matters more than the tile you pick. We replace rotten subfloor, re-level the pan, and waterproof with NOA-approved systems that pass Miami-Dade inspection the first time.

Tub-to-Shower Conversion

Tub-to-shower conversions in Sunset’s older homes frequently hit a snag most contractors don’t warn you about: the original cast-iron drain line in the slab is cracked. We hydro-test the rough-in before we pour or tile anything. If the line fails, we write the change order, you approve the price, and only then do we break the floor. No surprises at the end.

Vanities, Tile & Fixtures

From a double vanity swap to full wall-to-wall tile and new fixtures, this is where a remodel starts looking finished. In Sunset homes, we also check what’s behind the vanity. A 1973 ranch off SW 72nd Street had aluminum wiring feeding the bathroom circuit. That’s a code trigger once the wall is open. We handle it in writing before we move ahead.

Trusted Brands We Service in Sunset

We install materials you can look up, not mystery brands from a van. In Sunset, that often means Cambria or Silestone on vanity tops, Schluter or equivalent NOA-listed waterproofing membranes in showers, and Moen or Delta fixtures with a documented parts trail. We also keep common repair parts stocked for Sunset customers, which means a follow-up adjustment on a vanity or fixture doesn’t have to wait a week on a special order. Ask for the written spec sheet on any product before you decide. If a brand matters to you, we’ll put it in the contract by name.

Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Sunset Homes

• Rotted subfloor under the toilet from a failed wax ring. In Sunset’s slab-on-grade ranches, water from a failed wax ring seeps under the tile and rots the underlayment. You won’t see it until demo starts. We patch and re-level the subfloor before any new tile goes down, and you get a written change order covering the added work.
• Cracked cast-iron drain lines in the slab. Original drain lines in homes built between 1965 and 1988 are at the end of their service life. A tub-to-shower conversion or a plumbing move can expose a cracked line. We hydro-test first, and if it fails, we replace the section. The price is approved in writing before we touch it.
• Waterproofing that fails a county inspection. In unincorporated Miami-Dade, the inspector enforces the HVHZ product list. A liquid membrane without a current NOA number gets red-tagged, and the shower has to be stripped and redone. We install NOA-approved systems from the start because redoing waterproofing costs more than doing it right the first time.
• Aluminum wiring behind bathroom walls. Pre-1972 Sunset homes in the 33173 corridor often have aluminum branch circuits. Once a wall opens for a vanity or new lighting, the county requires the circuit to be brought to current code. We re-feed the circuit to the panel and install a NOA-rated exhaust fan with a backdraft damper before the inspection sign-off.
