Fast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across Ojus
A full bathroom remodel in Ojus typically runs between $9,000 and $28,000, depending on the scope, materials, and whether we’re updating an existing footprint or moving walls. Most jobs take two to four weeks once permits clear, though Miami-Dade County’s centralized permitting queue can add lead time you won’t see in smaller incorporated cities nearby. We’ve worked Ojus homes long enough to know that a 1960s CBS bathroom is not the same project as a 1990s condo renovation, and that difference shows up in the final price, the timeline, and what’s hiding behind the tile. Call (877) 610-1318 to schedule a free estimate, and we’ll walk you through the numbers for your specific house.
Why Ojus Homeowners Call Barrett & Sons First
Tom Barrett founded this company in 1998, and his sons run the crews in Ojus to this day. That’s not marketing language; it’s how the business works. When you hire us, the person who shakes your hand at the first meeting is the same person accountable when the final inspection is signed off. We publish Tom’s name, address, and license number openly. Look it up before you sign anything. We’d prefer you did.
The majority of our Ojus bathroom remodel work comes from referrals along the 33160 ZIP code corridor: neighbors who watched our crew work, homeowners whose adult children recommended us, condo owners in the garden-style complexes off West Dixie Highway who needed a bathroom update that could pass association review. Our local reputation is built on written change orders and permits pulled on every eligible job. If a price shifts, it arrives on paper before a single nail moves. No surprise invoices at the end.
We also know that calls to most contractors go to voicemail. Ours are answered by a live person, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. When a bathroom leak happens on a Saturday morning in Ojus, you reach a human, not an out-of-state call center. That’s a simple thing, but it matters here.
Our Bathroom Remodeling Services in Ojus
Every bathroom remodel in Ojus starts with the same conversation: what’s not working, what you want to change, and what the house will let us do without fighting the structure. Here’s where we spend most of our time in the 33160 area:
Full Bathroom Remodeling
A full gut and rebuild in Ojus means new waterproofing, new subfloor where needed, new tile or stone, new fixtures, new vanity, and updated plumbing. In older CBS homes, we frequently find original cast-iron drain lines that have corroded after six decades in Florida’s humidity. We plan for that on the front end, not when the tile’s already off. For a complete Bathroom Remodeling job in Ojus, you should budget for mold remediation if moisture has penetrated the block walls, which is common in post-1950s construction here.

Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling
Walk-in shower installations in Ojus run $4,500 to $12,000 depending on glass selection, bench work, and whether we need to relocate the drain. Homeowners in the garden-apartment complexes often want a curbless entry for aging in place, and that request has specific requirements in Miami-Dade’s HVHZ territory. We install Schluter and similar waterproofing systems that meet county code, because the inspector will check.

Tub-to-Shower Conversion
If your Ojus bathroom still has the original 1960s cast-iron tub, removing it frees up space and creates a safer entry. Tub-to-shower conversions here run $3,500 to $10,000. The work is faster than a full remodel and doesn’t require moving walls in most CBS homes, which keeps the permit simpler. We see a lot of these in Ojus because the original tubs are often cracked or chipped beyond resurfacing and the owners want a shower they can use without stepping over a high tub wall.

Vanities, Tile & Fixtures
Vanity installation in Ojus runs $800 to $3,000. Tile work, fixture replacement, lighting, and hardware all layer on top of that. We carry KraftMaid vanities and can order Cambria tops, but we’ll work with whatever you select. The important part in a humid, salt-adjacent climate is using the right grout, the right thinset, and the right ventilation. An exhaust fan that actually vents to the outside, not into the attic, is not optional in Ojus.

Trusted Brands We Service in Ojus
We’re not a brand-loyal operation; we’re a performance-loyal one. If it holds up to South Florida humidity and passes HVHZ standards, we’ll install it. In practice, that means we recommend materials from Oldcastle and Quikrete for subfloor and underlayment work, and we spec quartz tops and solid-surface vanities that won’t warp in the wet season. The key difference for Ojus homeowners is that we don’t show up with mystery brands off a van. What goes into your bathroom is named, researched, and written into the contract.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Ojus Homes
After 29 years of remodeling in this area, here’s what we regularly uncover behind the tile and under the slab in Ojus:
- Moisture intrusion through block walls. CBS construction from the 1950s through 1970s was never designed for today’s humidity levels. Without proper waterproofing and vapor barriers, grout fails early and mold follows.
- Corroded cast-iron drain lines. Six decades of mineral-heavy water and South Florida salts take a toll. We often recommend replacing the drain assembly during a full remodel rather than patching over a problem.
- Undersized exhaust ventilation. Many original Ojus bathrooms vent into the attic, not to the exterior. That trapped moisture accelerates grout failure, drywall damage, and paint peeling.
- Non-HVHZ compliant openings. If your bathroom remodel touches an exterior wall, window, or door, Miami-Dade’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone code requires impact-rated or shuttable openings. Older homes almost always need retrofits.

FAQs - Bathroom Remodeling in Ojus
Once you approve the written estimate, we can usually begin within two to three weeks, depending on Miami-Dade County’s current permit queue. Unincorporated Ojus runs through the county’s centralized Building Department, so scheduling inspections requires longer lead times than in smaller municipalities like Aventura or Hallandale Beach. We file the permit paperwork as soon as the contract is signed. Call (877) 610-1318 for a current timeline on your project.
Yes. We work throughout the 33160 ZIP code, including single-family homes, garden-style apartment units, and townhome communities. Condo and co-op projects often require additional association approvals and specific work-hour rules, and we accommodate both. If you’re unsure whether your building’s rules affect the project scope, we’ll review that before you sign anything.
Expect to pay roughly the same as North Miami Beach or Sunny Isles Beach, but slightly more than Hallandale Beach on some jobs because Ojus is unincorporated county territory, which adds permitting lead time and occasionally triggers additional HVHZ documentation that smaller cities handle faster. We also handle Ojus Driveway & Pavers work with the same permitting rigor. A typical full remodel here runs $9,000 to $28,000. The faster municipal permitting in Aventura can save a week or two, not thousands of dollars. Get a free written estimate from us at (877) 610-1318 to see your exact numbers.
Every eligible bathroom remodel we do in Ojus includes permits pulled and inspections signed. You don’t have to ask. The permit inspector works for you, not for me. That’s why we like him. Work done without permits in unincorporated Miami-Dade is a time bomb when you go to sell, and we won’t be a part of that.
Every job, including bathroom remodels in Ojus, carries our written 90-Day Done Right Promise. If something’s not done right, Tom comes back and makes it right, one call. That’s written on the contract, not buried in fine print. We also offer a free second opinion on any written estimate you’ve received from another contractor, no trip charge inside Miami-Dade County. Call (877) 610-1318 and ask for Tom.
