AfterFast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across Lighthouse Point
A full bathroom remodel in Lighthouse Point typically runs $9,000-$28,000, with most projects finishing in three to six weeks depending on scope. If you’re weighing a walk-in shower conversion or a complete gut-and-rebuild on a canal-front home, the numbers shift fast, and that’s exactly why we publish them. We’re Barrett & Sons Construction, and we’ve built bathrooms all over Lighthouse Point long enough to know where the surprises hide in these older CBS homes. Call (877) 610-1318 for an estimate from a contractor who will put every allowance on paper before the first tile comes up.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Lighthouse Point’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
The homes along Lighthouse Point’s canals are not like the tract houses ten minutes west. Many were built between 1955 and 1985, concrete block, with original copper supply lines that have had sixty years to thin and original cast-iron drain stacks that don’t owe anyone anything. When we remodel a bathroom here, we’re rarely just swapping finishes. We’re finding corroded shut-off valves, rusted tub traps, and framing that needs a marine-grade fastener upgrade because the salt air off the Intracoastal never stops working.
Tom Barrett’s name is on the truck, and his sons run the crews. No franchise, no dispatched strangers. A live person answers the phone 24/7, not an out-of-state call center. You can look up Tom’s license number yourself before you sign anything. We publish it because the last contractor most Lighthouse Point homeowners used told them permits were optional.
Every price change arrives as a written change order before any work happens. Scope in writing, allowances in writing, change orders in writing. It’s a habit we built over 29 years, and it’s why people on NW 26th Ave and along Lighthouse Drive keep calling us back.
Our Bathroom Remodeling Services in Lighthouse Point
Full Bathroom Remodeling
We strip a bathroom to the studs or the block, then rebuild it right. In Lighthouse Point, that often means replacing rusted cold-rolled steel studs with corrosion-resistant alternatives, moving supply lines without notching joists, and waterproofing with Schluter systems that handle South Florida humidity. A full remodel in this city runs $9,000-$28,000 depending on footprint, material selection, and whether we’re relocating plumbing.
Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling
Walk-in showers are the most-requested project we do in Lighthouse Point. The logic is simple: homeowners in their fifties and sixties want a shower they can use for the next thirty years without stepping over a tub wall. We use Schluter Kerdi waterproofing on every shower we build, and we spec Grohe valves and fixtures when the job calls for them. Walk-in shower installation runs $4,500-$12,000; shower replacement runs $3,000-$8,500.
Tub-to-Shower Conversion
A tub-to-shower conversion in Lighthouse Point usually means pulling a cast-iron tub through a 30-inch door and dealing with a slab floor. Nothing in these canal-front homes is ever easy, and that’s where experience pays. We’ve done enough of them to know exactly what the demo will find inside a 1960s CBS bathroom. Expect $3,500-$10,000.
Vanities, Tile & Fixtures
Sometimes the bathroom doesn’t need a gut job, just a smarter layout and better materials. We install vanities, tile, and fixtures with the same written-scope discipline we bring to a full remodel. Vanity installation runs $800-$3,000. Whether it’s a KraftMaid vanity or marble-look porcelain tile, you’ll know the brand and the price before we place the order.

Trusted Brands We Service in Lighthouse Point
We don’t install mystery brands off a van. In Lighthouse Point bathrooms, we regularly install Schluter waterproofing, Sterling tubs and shower bases, and Grohe fixtures. You can look these brands up before you sign anything. When you see a Grohe valve on your written scope, you know exactly what’s going in the wall. We’ll also recommend materials that hold up to salt air, because a chrome fixture that looks great in inland Pompano Beach can tarnish fast on the Intracoastal.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Lighthouse Point Homes
- Salt-air corrosion on steel and fasteners. Sitting directly on the Intracoastal, Lighthouse Point gets corrosion that degrades uncoated steel lintels and fasteners faster than even Deerfield Beach, two miles inland. We spec hot-dipped galvanized or stainless hardware throughout, because replacing a corroded strap in a finished wall later costs more than doing it right the first time.
- Original plumbing from the 1950s-1980s. Most older Lighthouse Point homes still have the original supply and drain lines. Copper pinholes and cast-iron rot are common finds, and the right time to address them is when the bathroom is already open.
- CBS construction complicates every wall change. Concrete block walls are great in a hurricane and unforgiving when you want to move a shower valve. We’re set up for the coring and patching work that these homes require, including the permit and inspection steps Broward County requires when structure is touched.
- High water table complicates slab work. Lighthouse Point’s seasonal water table often sits within 18-24 inches of grade, especially June through October. If we’re moving a toilet flange or adding a linear drain, that’s a factor we plan for. Out-of-area contractors find out the hard way.

FAQs - Bathroom Remodeling in Lighthouse Point
We typically schedule Lighthouse Point bathroom remodels within two to four weeks of a signed scope, depending on permit turnaround from the city. The canal-front setback rules don’t usually affect interior bathroom work, but if you’re expanding a bathroom into a rear-facing addition, the seawall setback can add six to ten weeks to the timeline. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll give you a straight answer for your specific house.
Yes. We work all over Lighthouse Point’s 33064 zip code, from the wider lots along Federal Highway to the finger-canal homes off Lighthouse Drive and NW 26th Ave. Those narrow, deep canal lots are exactly where our experience with local code applies, because the setback conflicts that delay other contractors are old news to us.
For a burst supply line or a failed shut-off valve in Lighthouse Point, a live person answers our phone 24/7 at (877) 610-1318. We’ll talk you through shutting the water off and get a crew out. For planned remodels, the work is scheduled, not rushed - nobody should gut a bathroom same-day when water lines and slab work are involved.
The labor and materials are similar to Pompano Beach or Coconut Creek, but canal-front Lighthouse Point homes often carry a corrosion premium. When we spec stainless or hot-dipped galvanized hardware and marine-grade materials, that’s a line item inland contractors don’t always include, and it can add 5-10% to the total. Our full bathroom remodels run $9,000-$28,000. For an exact quote on your home, call (877) 610-1318 - estimates are free.
Every completed job carries our written 90-Day Done Right Promise. If something isn’t right, one call brings Tom Barrett back to make it right, no fine print. We also stand behind the manufacturer warranties on every Schluter, Sterling, and Grohe product we install. It’s all in writing before the first tile is set.
