AfterFast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across Jupiter
A full bathroom remodel in Jupiter, FL typically runs $9,000 to $28,000, with coastal-spec work near the inlet landing closer to $12,000-$28,000 once marine-grade hardware and dual permits are factored in. Most Jupiter homeowners we talk to are surprised by the spread, and the difference usually comes down to whether the house sits east of US-1, where salt air eats standard fasteners within a decade. If you live in Jupiter, call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll walk the job with you before any number gets written down.
We know Jupiter’s housing stock because we work in it: the 1960s and 70s CBS block homes around Tequesta Drive and the inlet corridor, the newer builds in Abacoa off Donald Ross Road, and the large-lot properties out in Jupiter Farms where the bathroom is often the smallest project on the property. That local familiarity matters when you’re writing a scope. It changes which fasteners we spec, whether we plan for a DEP review, and how we handle the slab under your feet.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Jupiter’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
We’ve been at this since 1998, and we’re not a franchise. Tom Barrett’s sons run crews across Jupiter, and Tom himself answers for the work. When a written change order goes out, it comes with a name attached, not a corporate phone tree. Jupiter homeowners tend to ask the same two questions: can I verify who I’m hiring, and will the price hold? Yes to both. Our license number is published, and every price change arrives on paper before a single nail moves.
Our Bathroom Remodeling team pulls permits on every eligible job in Jupiter. That includes the Palm Beach County permit and, when your property sits seaward of the Coastal Construction Control Line near the inlet, the separate DEP permit that inland contractors overlook. We’ve seen that oversight add six weeks to a schedule. We don’t skip it, and we don’t let you find out about it mid-job.
We answer the phone 24/7 with a live person. That’s not a marketing line, it’s a standing policy. If you call at 6:00 a.m. from a house on the Loxahatchee River with water coming through a shower wall, you’ll talk to a person who knows Jupiter, not an answering service.
Our Bathroom Remodeling Services in Jupiter
Full Bathroom Remodeling
A full gut remodel in Jupiter is where the salt-air conversation starts. We open walls, we inspect the rough-in, and we document what’s corroded before we tile over it. In inlet-area homes built in the 1960s and 70s, that inspection usually turns up rusted pipe hangers and pitted brass fittings. Our scope work replaces them with marine-grade stainless or hot-dipped galvanized hardware, because a beautiful new shower shouldn’t be hiding a supply line that fails in year six.
Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling
Walk-in shower installations in Jupiter run $4,500-$12,000, and the range reflects materials more than labor. Impact-rated glass and stainless hardware cost more up front, but a standard aluminum frame near the inlet will show pitting within a few years. We also spec sealed solid-surface or porcelain systems that don’t wick moisture the way natural stone does in flood-zone humidity. For 33469 properties near the beach, we write the shower pan with a pre-flood test and marine-grade sealants.
Tub-to-Shower Conversion
This is the most requested job in Jupiter’s 55-and-over neighborhoods, and it’s one we handle carefully in flood-zone homes. A tub-to-shower conversion runs $3,500-$10,000, depending on whether your property triggers the DEP second review. We coordinate both agencies. We also handle the subfloor properly, because slab-on-grade homes in low-lying lots near the river wick moisture upward, and tile adhesion fails fast if the vapor barrier scope isn’t right.
Vanities, Tile & Fixtures
Vanity installation in Jupiter runs $800-$3,000, and we recommend sealed cabinet boxes with stainless hinges in any home east of US-1. The coastal air gets into unsealed MDF and swells the edges within a few humid seasons. We source tile rated for wet areas, and we set it over proper waterproofing. The finish work is what you see; the waterproofing is what keeps it from failing behind the wall.

Trusted Brands We Service in Jupiter
We carry and install brands you can look up. In Jupiter bathrooms, we’ve had strong results with PGT impact-rated glazing for windows near the water, and Simonton frames where the opening isn’t required to meet impact code but still faces ocean air. We also work with Ply Gem for inland applications. We don’t install mystery material off a van. If a brand can’t be verified, it doesn’t go in a Jupiter home, period.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Jupiter Homes
- Corroded fasteners and plumbing straps inside wall cavities. Standard zinc-plated hardware in a home east of US-1 starts pitting in five to seven years. We spec stainless or hot-dipped galvanized on every coastal job, and we document what we find before closing the wall.
- Tile adhesion failure on slab foundations. Low-lying lots in the Loxahatchee River floodplain hold seasonal high water tables, and moisture wicks up through the slab. A proper vapor barrier and moisture-mitigation scope has to be written, not assumed.
- Improper shower pan liners that pass inspection but fail under humidity. A cheap liner and non-marine-grade sealant can look fine on day one and rot the framing within years. We pre-flood test every pan and write the test into the scope.
- Dual-permit confusion near the inlet. Properties seaward of the Coastal Construction Control Line need both the county permit and a DEP permit. Contractors who don’t know Jupiter’s inlet neighborhoods often don’t file the second one, and the project stalls. We plan for it on day one.
Pricing for Bathroom Remodeling in Jupiter, FL
A typical bathroom remodel in Jupiter runs $9,000-$28,000, and the gap comes down to materials and permit complexity. Coastal-spec jobs near the inlet cost more because marine-grade hardware, impact-rated glazing, and dual-permit coordination all add real dollars. Inland jobs in Jupiter Farms or Abacoa don’t carry those same coastal requirements.
| Bathroom Remodel (coastal-spec, full gut with permit co-ordination) | $12,000-$28,000 |
|---|---|
| Small Bathroom Remodel (guest bath, CCCL zone) | $6,000-$12,000 |
| Walk-In Shower Installation (marine-grade hardware, impact-rated glass) | $6,000-$12,000 |
| Tub-to-Shower Conversion (with dual-permit package) | $5,000-$10,000 |
| Bathroom Vanity Installation (sealed cabinet, stainless hinges) | $1,200-$3,000 |

FAQs - Bathroom Remodeling in Jupiter
The DEP permit itself is generally a few hundred dollars, but the real cost is the coordination and the two-to-four-week timeline hit it adds to your schedule. Contractors who misfile it cause the real pain, and we’ve seen projects stall for over a month because a second agency wasn’t looped in from the start. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll tell you upfront whether your property triggers the second review.
If the window sits within the wind-borne debris region, yes, and Florida Building Code wind loads for Jupiter parcels often exceed 150 mph design speed. In coastal 33469, impact-rated glazing is non-negotiable on most elevations. For inland bathrooms, standard code-compliant glazing usually works, but we still spec corrosion-resistant frames anywhere the Atlantic salt air reaches.
Standard zinc-plated fasteners, pipe hangers, and aluminum shower frames fail first, usually within five to seven years east of US-1. We also see sealant breakdown around tub flanges and window trim where marine humidity sits against non-marine-grade materials. Our scopes replace the fail-prone materials before the tile goes up, not after.
Jupiter Farms homes sit inland, away from the DEP coastal review zone and away from the worst chloride exposure. You’re still in Palm Beach County, so you still pull a county permit, but the materials can be standard code-compliant spec rather than marine-grade. That alone can move a full remodel from the top of the range toward the bottom.
Usually yes, if the terrazzo is sound and the existing drain location works. We’ve converted tubs in older Jupiter homes while preserving terrazzo flooring, but it depends on what’s underneath. We cut carefully, we inspect, and if the subfloor shows salt or moisture damage, we tell you before we proceed, not after. Call (877) 610-1318 for a look at your specific floor.
