AfterFast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across Miami Springs
Bathroom remodeling in Miami Springs typically costs between $10,620 and $33,040, with small baths running $5,900-$14,160 and walk-in shower installs starting around $5,310. But the real question most homeowners here ask isn’t price. It’s whether the quote they’re holding accounts for the FAA Part 77 review that Miami Springs’s location under the MIA approach corridors can trigger, or whether the glass enclosure will pass Miami-Dade’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone inspection. Those are the questions that separate a remodel you’ll be proud of from one that stalls at zoning. We’re Barrett & Sons Construction, and our crew knows Miami Springs because we work here constantly. Call (877) 610-1318 for a free estimate, and we’ll walk your specific project against both the county code and the airport overlay before you spend a dollar.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Miami Springs’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
Tom Barrett founded this company in 1998, and his sons run the crews. That matters in Miami Springs because the work here is different from what contractors face in Coral Gables or Kendall. The homes are older, mostly 1930s to 1960s Mediterranean Revival and Mission Revival concrete block. The code is stricter. And the airport overlay adds a layer of review that out-of-area bidders frequently miss. We don’t miss it, because we see it on nearly every job in 33166.
Our Bathroom Remodeling team has pulled permits and passed inspections on homes throughout Miami Springs, from the tree-lined streets near the golf course down to the blocks closer to North Royal Poinciana Boulevard. Customers call us because Tom publishes his name, address, and license number. You can look it up before you sign anything. That’s not something every contractor in this market is willing to do.
When a homeowner here calls, a live person answers. No voicemail box, no out-of-state call center. And if you ask for a second opinion on a written estimate from another company, that’s free, no trip charge inside the county. We would rather you compare us honestly than sign with someone who does not understand what Miami Springs permits actually require.
Our Bathroom Remodeling Services in Miami Springs
We perform the full range of bathroom work across Miami Springs, from gut renovations on original 1940s baths to simple vanity swaps in newer homes near the industrial side of town. What follows are the jobs we handle most often here, with pricing pulled from the Miami Springs market specifically.
Full Bathroom Remodeling
This is a down-to-the-studs renovation: new waterproofing, new framing where walls have shifted, new plumbing rough-ins, new floor and wall tile, new fixtures, new ventilation. In Miami Springs, full remodels on older CBS homes often require us to address un-insulated block walls that have absorbed decades of humidity. We specify material that handles the 90%-plus Relative humidity of the June-to-October wet season without blistering. A full bathroom remodel in Miami Springs runs $10,620-$33,040.
Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling
We install walk-in showers with Schluter waterproofing systems, impact-rated glass, and proper slope and drainage. The glass matters in this city. Miami-Dade’s HVHZ code requires impact-rated openings, and a shower enclosure that sits against an exterior wall with a window is an opening. If you have an original jalousie window in the shower wall, that is a code failure waiting to be discovered. Walk-in shower installation in Miami Springs runs $5,310-$14,160, and that should include the impact-rated glass, not an upgrade surprise later.
Tub-to-Shower Conversion
Older Miami Springs homes, especially the 1930s and 1940s CBS originals, often have a tub bay where the single-wythe block wall was never designed to carry the weight of tile, glass, and a shower valve assembly. We reinforce the wall before we tile it. We also handle the vent relocation that frequently comes with converting a tub to a shower. If that vent penetrates the roof, your project may need FAA review. That is not optional, and a cheap quote that omits it will stall at Miami-Dade permitting. Tub-to-shower conversion in Miami Springs runs $4,130-$11,800.
Vanities, Tile & Fixtures
We install vanities from solid lines you can research, fixtures from Grohe and Sterling, and tile from suppliers who stock product approved for Miami-Dade’s HVHZ requirements. A bathroom vanity installation in Miami Springs runs $945-$3,540. We never install a mystery brand off a van. If you want Cambria countertops in the bath, we can do that too, and every allowance appears in writing before the change order is issued.

Trusted Brands We Service in Miami Springs
We install and stand behind a few brands specifically because they hold current Miami-Dade product approvals. Schluter waterproofing systems are in nearly every walk-in shower we build here, because the approval documentation is clean and the county inspectors know it. Grohe fixtures and Sterling tub and shower units both carry the necessary product approvals for HVHZ installation. If you are comparing quotes, ask the other contractor which shower pan they are specifying and whether it carries a current Florida Building Code product approval. If they hesitate, call us. We stock local parts for Miami Springs jobs and can typically start within a week of permit issuance.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Miami Springs Homes
- Jalousie windows in shower walls. The original jalousie windows on many 1930s-1960s homes here are not impact-rated and often sit inside the wet zone. The county will not pass a final inspection if one remains. We replace them with impact-rated fixed glass or a properly rated awning window, and we pull the permit for that replacement.
- Humidity damage inside un-insulated block cavities. When we open a bathroom wall on a 1940s CBS home, the cavity often smells like a boat bilge. If we don’t address that mold and moisture before closing up, the new drywall blisters in six months. We specify remediation as a line item, in writing, before work starts.
- Undersized or original electrical service. Many Miami Springs homes still run on original fuse panels or low-amp services. A new bathroom with a dedicated GFCI circuit, exhaust fan, and heated floor mat may exceed what the panel can safely carry. We bring an electrician in, check it, and give you a written change order before touching the panel.
- FAA Part 77 triggers hidden in routine work. If your remodel moves a roof vent, adds a second-story bathroom, or repositions a window rough-in along an approach corridor, Miami-Dade zoning will route the permit through FAA coordination. We catch this at the estimate stage, not three weeks into the permit process, because we have done it for Miami Springs homeowners many times.

A bathroom remodel costs more in Miami Springs than in Kendall or Hialeah in part because the code is not optional. Impact-rated openings cost more up front, and that cost shows up in every honest quote in this city. We don’t hide it. The estimate you get from Barrett & Sons includes those line items, not a vague “product upgrade” note. We also never start a scope change without a written change order, because an allowance that is not on paper is a surprise waiting for a date. We offer a free second opinion on any written estimate. Call (877) 610-1318 and we will walk through your numbers.

FAQs - Bathroom Remodeling in Miami Springs
Yes, potentially. If the remodel changes any vertical structure, relocates a roof vent, or alters a window rough-in that lies under a MIA approach corridor, Miami-Dade zoning will require FAA Form 7460-1 Part 77 airspace review before building permitting can proceed. This step is specific to Miami Springs and a few other airport-adjacent areas, and out-of-area contractors routinely miss it. We check for that trigger during the estimate, not after the permit stalls. Call (877) 610-1318 and ask us to look at your specific street.
A glass shower enclosure in Miami Springs must meet Miami-Dade High Velocity Hurricane Zone impact standards if it sits in an exterior wall opening or adjacent to one. In practical terms, that means impact-rated glazing with documentation from a Miami-Dade approved products list. We specify glass that carries that approval, and we keep the paperwork for your records. If the enclosure is fully interior, standard tempered glass is acceptable, but we will tell you which applies before you spend anything.
Insurance carriers in Florida increasingly ask for proof that renovations met HVHZ standards, especially after wind or water claims. A bathroom remodel with impact-rated windows, compliant waterproofing, and signed inspection records gives you documentation your insurer can actually use. A remodel without that paper trail can become a reason for a claim denial or a higher premium later. We give you the inspection sign-offs and product approvals. You keep them. Call (877) 610-1318 if you want to know what documentation we provide.
Because Miami Springs sits directly under MIA approach corridors and is subject to HVHZ product approval requirements that Kendall homes rarely trigger to the same degree. Impact-rated openings, FAA Part 77 review when vertical work occurs, and structural reinforcement on older single-wythe block walls all add cost that a contractor working in Coral Gables or Kendall won’t even price. If a quote from Miami Springs looks significantly cheaper than ours, check whether it includes those line items. If it doesn’t, the price is not cheaper. The permitting process will catch it.
Plan to replace it before the final inspection. A jalousie window in the shower wall is not impact-rated, and Miami-Dade will not sign off on a remodel that leaves it. We replace them with impact-rated fixed glass or an approved awning window, depending on your ventilation needs, and we pull the permit for that replacement. We renovated a 1948 Mediterranean Revival CBS home on Hunting Lodge Drive where exactly this issue had rotted the subfloor. The owner thought the remodel was about tile. The real win was the structural and impact work we did before the inspector ever arrived.
If you live in Miami Springs and want a bathroom remodel quote that accounts for the FAA overlay, the HVHZ code, and the condition of your 1930s or 1940s block walls, call (877) 610-1318. We answer the phone. We’ll give you a free estimate with line items in writing. And we’ll stand behind the work with the 90-Day Done Right Promise, because Tom Barrett still answers his own phone.
