AfterFast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across North Bay Village
A full bathroom remodel in North Bay Village typically runs $9,000 to $28,000, with smaller jobs like tub-to-shower conversions starting around $3,500. Most projects here take two to five weeks depending on what’s hiding behind the walls, because on these bay-fill islands, there’s almost always something hiding. If you live in the 33141 ZIP and you’re thinking about gutting a tired 1960s condo bath or reworking a ground-floor unit, call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll walk the space with you. We’ve been in enough of these buildings to know North Bay Village baths don’t remodel like mainland baths do.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is North Bay Village’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
We’re Barrett & Sons Construction, founded in 1998 and still owner-operated by Tom Barrett, whose sons run the crews. When you call us about a bathroom on Treasure Island or Harbor Island, you’re talking to someone who has pulled permits in North Bay Village, who knows the condominium board approval process on the causeway buildings, and who isn’t surprised when demo opens a wall and the rebar looks like it’s been through a shipwreck. Tom Barrett publishes his name, his address, and his license number. Look it up before you sign anything – we’d rather you did.
Calls are answered by a live person, 24/7, not a voicemail box and not an out-of-state call center. If you’re in one of the older concrete-block buildings along Adventure Avenue or up near the 79th Street Causeway, you’ll get someone on the phone who actually knows where that is. Background-checked crew members carry the Barrett & Sons name on every visit, and Tom lives close enough that if something isn’t right, he wants to hear about it the same day you do.
Our Bathroom Remodeling Services in North Bay Village
Full Bathroom Remodeling
A gut renovation in North Bay Village almost always includes concrete repair before tile work starts. The original 1950s-through-1970s block construction has spent decades in 360-degree salt air, and spalled concrete around the wet-wall plumbing is common. We address that first, then rebuild with materials rated for Miami-Dade’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone, where even interior fastening choices get specified differently than they would across the bay. Expect a full North Bay Village bath remodel to land between $9,000 and $28,000 depending on the building’s condition and your fixture choices.
Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling
Older North Bay Village units often have cast-iron tubs and tile surrounds that were installed before waterproofing standards we use today. When we convert those spaces to walk-in showers, we’re usually rebuilding the pan, redoing the drain line, and adding a proper membrane system – not just slapping tile over what was there. Walk-in shower installation in North Bay Village runs about $4,500 to $12,000.
Tub-to-Shower Conversion
This is the single most requested job in the condo towers along East Treasure Drive and the low-rises near Normandy Isle. A tub-to-shower conversion in North Bay Village costs $3,500 to $10,000, and it’s a sensible move for aging-in-place homeowners who want a zero-threshold entry without sacrificing square footage. We pull permits and schedule inspections on these conversions even when your building doesn’t ask, because the inspector works for you, not for us – and that’s how we like it.
Vanities, Tile & Fixtures
If the bones are sound and you just want the bathroom to stop looking like a rental from the Nixon administration, we handle vanities, tile, fixtures, and glass enclosures as a focused scope. Vanity installation in North Bay Village runs $800 to $3,000, and we install frameless glass shower enclosures that hold up to the salt-air environment better than the chrome-framed originals. We carry real brands you can look up – not mystery products off a van.

Trusted Brands We Service in North Bay Village
When we quote a bathroom on Treasure Island or Harbor Island, we name the materials in writing. That means Simonton and PGT on the glass and window packages where water intrusion is a concern, and it means framing, waterproofing, and fixture brands we’ve been installing for years – not whatever the supply house had on sale. We order for your specific building, and because our Bathroom Remodeling team works in North Bay Village regularly, we know which products clear the HVHZ review and which ones get bounced back by Miami-Dade product approval. The allowance that isn’t on paper is a surprise waiting for a date, so every material allowance comes to you as a written line item before any work starts.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in North Bay Village Homes
- Spalled concrete and corroded rebar behind the tile. The mid-century block construction in North Bay Village has been breathing salt air for 50 to 75 years. When demo opens a wall, we routinely find reinforcing steel that has expanded and cracked the surrounding concrete, which has to be repaired before waterproofing and tile can go back.
- Ground-floor water intrusion and king-tide moisture. Because the whole city sits on low artificial islands in Biscayne Bay, ground-floor baths see storm-surge splash and chronic humidity issues that condos on the upper floors never experience. Moisture-barrier detailing and the right grout selection matter more here than almost anywhere in the region.
- Hurricane-zone fastening and glazing compliance. North Bay Village sits inside the High Velocity Hurricane Zone, so any window, vent, or exterior penetration in a bathroom remodel has to meet product-approval standards. A mainland crew that doesn’t know this can trigger a failed inspection and a stop-work order.
- Shallow bay-fill excavation surprises. Even a modest plumbing reroute or shower-pan rebuild can hit groundwater within a few feet of grade in North Bay Village. We plan for that from the first site visit – it’s one of the reasons we walk every job before we write a number.
Pricing for Bathroom Remodeling in North Bay Village, FL

Concrete repair under the tile, moisture remediation in ground-floor units, and whether your building’s elevator service can handle material staging without a crane.

If a supply line bursts or a drain backs up into your bath, call (877) 610-1318 any time. For planned remodels, we schedule in advance and don’t promise same-day anything – but we’ll be honest about the timeline, write it down, and stick to it.
How does bathroom remodeling cost in North Bay Village compare to nearby cities?
