AfterFast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across Boca Del Mar
Bathroom remodeling in Boca Del Mar typically costs between $9,000 and $28,000 depending on scope, fixtures, and whether the job triggers county-mandated hurricane-compliance upgrades. Most full remodels in the community take 3 to 6 weeks once permits clear, and walk-in shower or tub-to-shower conversions often finish sooner. If you’re weighing whether to refresh a tired bath or gut it to the studs, call us at (877) 610-1318 and we’ll walk the space with you before you commit to a number.
Barrett & Sons Construction has worked in Boca Del Mar long enough to know the permit portal, the wind-load checklists, and the difference between a quote that will hold and one that will blow apart at rough-in. Tom Barrett and his sons run the crews themselves. We answer our own phone, and we put every allowance and change order in writing before a single nail moves.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Boca Del Mar’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
We’re owner-operated and have been since 1998. Tom Barrett’s name is on the truck and on the contract, and his sons are on-site most days in Boca Del Mar, not a crew dispatched from three counties away. Homeowners off Camino Real and along Via de Sonrisa del Sur don’t get a rotating cast of strangers. They get the same faces from first estimate to final inspection.
This matters in Boca Del Mar more than in most places, because the community is unincorporated Palm Beach County. A permit routed through Boca Raton’s city system ends in a no-show inspection and a stalled job. We file through the county portal every time, because we do it every week. County inspectors know our work, and we like it that way. The inspector works for you, not for me, which is exactly why we want him on the job.
Every bathroom remodel we run in Boca Del Mar carries the 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If something isn’t right, Tom comes back and makes it right with one call. That’s not a marketing line. It’s on the contract.
Key takeaways for Boca Del Mar homeowners:
- County permits, not city permits. We handle the portal, the scheduling, and the sign-off.
- Written change orders before any scope change touches your job. No end-of-job invoices that surprise you.
- Premium materials you can look up: Schluter waterproofing, Sterling and Grohe fixtures.
- Free estimates and a live person on the phone 24/7 at (877) 610-1318.
Our Bathroom Remodeling Services in Boca Del Mar
Full Bathroom Remodeling
A full bathroom remodel in Boca Del Mar usually means gutting a 1970s or 1980s bath down to the block, reworking the layout, and rebuilding with current code in mind. That often includes new waterproofing, new drain locations, and an impact-rated window if the opening faces the wind. We handle the whole sequence: demo, rough-in, county inspection, tile, fixtures, glass, and final sign-off. If your Boca Del Mar home is a CBS villa or a low-rise condo, we know how the tie-beam and framing details affect what you can and can’t move.
Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling
Walk-in shower work is one of the most common requests we get in Boca Del Mar, especially from homeowners staying in place and tired of stepping over a tub wall. A walk-in shower installation in Boca Del Mar typically runs $4,500 to $12,000 depending on size, tile, and whether you need impact-rated glazing on a window inside the shower footprint. We build the pan with Schluter waterproofing as standard, so the substrate stays dry for decades.
Tub-to-Shower Conversion
Converting a tub to a walk-in shower in Boca Del Mar runs between $3,500 and $10,000 depending on how much plumbing moves and what the county inspector flags. The big variable here is the drain. Moving a tub drain a few feet can mean cutting into the slab, and Boca Del Mar sits on a shallow water table, often 2 to 4 feet below grade. We plan dewatering and slab cuts carefully so a failed rough-in inspection doesn’t stall your project.
Vanities, Tile & Fixtures
Vanity installation in Boca Del Mar runs $800 to $3,000, and tile work varies with footage and material. We stock and install fixtures from Sterling and Grohe, which means you’re not waiting on a mystery brand from a supply house three weeks out. If you want a floating double vanity in a master bath or a simple single-bowl refresh in a villa off 33433, we’ll price it line by line so you know exactly what you’re paying for.

Trusted Brands We Service in Boca Del Mar
We install materials you can look up before you sign anything. For bathrooms in Boca Del Mar, that means Schluter waterproofing systems behind the tile, Sterling tubs and shower bases, and Grohe fixtures. These aren’t brands we picked off a catalog. They hold up in a humid, salt-adjacent climate, and we can get replacement parts fast when a cartridge fails six years down the road. Local parts access means less downtime for Boca Del Mar homeowners, and we stock the common repair kits so you’re not waiting.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Boca Del Mar Homes
- Wrong jurisdiction permits. Boca Del Mar is not Boca Raton. A contractor who files through the city portal gets a no-show inspection and a stalled rough-in. We file through Palm Beach County every time.
- Original single-pane aluminum windows inside the wet area. Once you open the wall, the county typically requires impact-rated glazing if the window stays. A cheap bid leaves that out, and the change order hits at rough-in.
- Groundwater in slab cuts. Moving a drain in Boca Del Mar often means cutting the slab where the water table sits a few feet down. Without a dewatering plan, the rough-in can’t pass inspection and the job stalls.
- Missing hurricane strapping on CBS construction. Older Boca Del Mar villas were built before current tie-down requirements. When a remodel crosses the county’s cost threshold, the inspector can require roof-to-wall connector retrofits before final sign-off.

FAQs - Bathroom Remodeling in Boca Del Mar
Yes. Boca Del Mar is unincorporated Palm Beach County, so every bathroom remodel that moves plumbing, opens walls, or changes the window requires a county permit, not a Boca Raton city permit. We pull the permit through the Palm Beach County portal, schedule county inspections, and make sure the job gets signed off. If you’re replacing tile only and not touching plumbing or structure, you may not need one, but we’ll tell you definitively before work starts. Call (877) 610-1318 for a straight answer on your specific scope.
Any new window in Boca Del Mar must be impact-rated or protected by an approved shutter system, because the community sits in a high-velocity hurricane zone, an HVHZ. That means impact-resistant glazing that meets current Palm Beach County wind-load standards, not a standard builder-grade window. We install impact-rated casement and fixed windows inside shower footprints and wet areas as needed, and we document the rating for your insurance file. A cheap bid that leaves the old single-pane window in place won’t pass final inspection.
In many cases, yes. When we install impact-rated windows, hurricane straps, or roof-to-wall tie-down retrofits as part of a Boca Del Mar bathroom remodel, we document every upgrade for the wind mitigation report your insurer uses. Homeowners who complete these upgrades and submit proper documentation often qualify for wind mitigation credits on their policy. We can’t promise a specific dollar figure, but we can make sure the paperwork is inspection-grade. Ask us about this when we walk your job, and we’ll tell you what’s likely to qualify.
Usually because the original bid didn’t account for Palm Beach County’s cost-threshold requirements. In Boca Del Mar, once a remodel crosses a certain dollar value or opens enough of the structure, the county inspector can require impact-rated glazing, hurricane strapping, or tie-down retrofits that weren’t in the original scope. A low bid leaves these out. Our bids include the compliance work we know the county will flag, and if a change does come up, it arrives as a written change order before the work happens, not as a surprise at the end. That’s the difference between an allowance that isn’t on paper and one that is.
Sometimes, but not always. A tub-to-shower conversion in Boca Del Mar that stays in the same footprint and doesn’t move structural walls or windows may not cross the county’s cost threshold that triggers a full retrofit. But if you’re moving the drain, adding a window, or expanding the footprint, the inspection can trigger additional requirements. We’ll tell you before you sign which side of that line your job falls on. Most conversions we do in Boca Del Mar run $3,500 to $10,000 with compliance work included where required. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll give you a written answer for your specific bathroom.
