Remodeling a bathroom in a town with a strict 35-foot height limit and oceanfront salt air is not the same as remodeling one a few miles inland. The homes here are concrete block construction from the 1950s through the ’70s, most of them never fully brought up to today’s Florida Building Code. That means when we open up a wall in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, we find things other contractors don’t prepare for: corroded rebar, spalling concrete, and fasteners that have been quietly rusting for fifty years. Planning for those surprises up front is what keeps your price from changing halfway through the job.

Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Lauderdale-by-the-Sea’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company

Tom Barrett founded this company in 1998, and his sons run the crews. When we work in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, you’ll see the same faces from start to finish, not a rotating cast of subcontractors from a dispatch board. Homeowners here tend to be done with the national-outfit experience, the one where a salesperson quotes a number and the crew shows up with a different agenda. We’ve built our reputation in this ZIP code on a simpler promise: every scope, every allowance, and every price change gets written down and handed to you before work moves forward. No surprises on the final invoice.

Lauderdale-by-the-Sea customers also appreciate that we’re genuinely local to the area. We coordinate scheduling from our South Florida office so crews can reach neighborhoods across 33303 without a long dispatch delay. And when the town’s building department wants documentation, we’re already prepared because we pull permits on every eligible job and stand with you through each inspection. Ask anyone on your street, or look up our license number yourself.

Our Bathroom Remodeling Services in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea

Full Bathroom Remodeling

A complete gut-and-rebuild in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea usually starts with addressing what’s behind the walls, especially in older CBS buildings where decades of Atlantic salt exposure have done their work on steel studs and window lintels. We handle everything from demolition and plumbing rough-in to waterproofing, tile, and final trim, and we price the project so you know the total before we begin. Our full Bathroom Remodeling team handles jobs from small condo baths to larger master suites in single-family homes along El Mar Drive and the adjacent streets.

Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling

For many Lauderdale-by-the-Sea homeowners, the goal is a curbless walk-in shower with a frameless glass enclosure, a style that fits the low-rise, beach-casual character of the town perfectly. We install proper waterproofing systems rated for humid coastal conditions and ensure the pan slope and drainage meet Broward County code. Walk-in shower installations here typically run $4,500 to $12,000 depending on size, tile, and whether we’re modifying the existing drain location in a concrete slab.

Tub-to-Shower Conversion

Older condos and cottages in 33303 often have a compact tub-shower combination that no longer works for the homeowner. Converting that tub to a low-threshold shower usually costs $3,500 to $10,000 in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, and it’s one of the most common projects we do in the town’s smaller units. We handle the drain relocation, waterproofing, and tile work, and we’ll tell you honestly if your existing floor structure needs reinforcement first.

Vanities, Tile & Fixtures

Sometimes the bones of the bathroom are fine and what you need is a thoughtful upgrade: a new vanity, better tile, fixtures that don’t show water spots from the mineral-heavy South Florida supply. Bathroom vanity installation in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea runs $800 to $3,000, and tile work is priced per project, not by a vague square-foot guess. We specify corrosion-resistant hardware because the salt air here attacks cheap finishes faster than anywhere we work inland.

Trusted Brands We Service in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea

We don’t install mystery materials off the back of a van. In Lauderdale-by-the-Sea we regularly work with PGT impact-rated windows, Simonton window assemblies, and Ply Gem products when a bathroom remodel touches an exterior wall or requires hurricane-rated glazing. Broward County’s HVHZ designation means any window or door we touch in your bathroom must meet Miami-Dade product approval standards, and we handle that paperwork for you. Want something specific? We’ll source it and give you the brand name in writing on your estimate.

Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea Homes

• Corroded fasteners and rebar in CBS walls: Decades of salt spray from the Atlantic works its way into concrete block and rusts the steel inside. In Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, we regularly find spalling concrete and corroded rebar behind what looked like a simple tile wall. We replace and repair that structure before it becomes a bigger, costlier problem.
• Improper waterproofing from previous renovations: Many condos and duplexes in 33303 had bathrooms remodeled years ago without proper shower pan membranes because codes were looser then. We often open a wall to find mold or moisture damage hiding behind otherwise beautiful tile. We strip it to the studs and rebuild with current waterproofing standards.
• Windows and openings that fail HVHZ inspection: If your bathroom has an exterior window, it likely needs impact-rated glazing to pass a permitted remodel in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea. We’ve seen homeowners discover this mid-project and then face a change order from a contractor who didn’t flag it up front. We tell you about it at the estimate stage.
• Drainage and plumbing in older slabs: The town’s 1950s-1970s buildings often have cast-iron drain lines in the concrete slab that have deteriorated from decades of salt and mineral exposure. When we move a toilet or shower drain during a remodel, we inspect what’s below and tell you before we reach the point of no return.
