AfterFast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across Palm Beach Gardens
A full bathroom remodel in Palm Beach Gardens typically costs between $9,000 and $28,000, with smaller bathroom updates ranging from $5,000 to $12,000. We’re the local crew that answers our own phone, shows up when we say we will, and puts every price change in writing before a single tile comes off the wall. If you’re planning a bathroom remodel in Palm Beach Gardens, call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll walk through the scope together.
Palm Beach Gardens isn’t like most markets. You’ve got gated golf communities east of the Turnpike where the HOA wants to review your paint swatches before you pick up a hammer, and brand-new Avenir builds out west where the drywall hasn’t even settled yet. We know both sides of that map. Our crews are in Palm Beach Gardens every week, and we understand what happens when you open up a 1972 slab home off Burns Road versus a 2005 CBS build in Mirasol. Different surprises, different fixes, same rule: you know the cost before we start the work.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Palm Beach Gardens’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
We’ve been doing this since 1998, and Tom Barrett’s name is on the truck. Not a parent company. Not a franchise. A guy who lives close enough to drive through Palm Beach Gardens and see the work we did three years ago. That matters when you’re spending five figures on a shower you’ll stand in every morning for the next twenty years.
The biggest difference you’ll notice with us is paperwork. Every scope item, every allowance, every change order comes to you in writing before work moves. That’s not boilerplate. It’s how we’ve run jobs since the first one, and it’s why homeowners in Palm Beach Gardens who got burned by phone-quote contractors end up calling us. We pull permits on every eligible job. We coordinate with your HOA’s architectural review board. We don’t let community security stop your demo because somebody skipped step one.
And when the job’s done, you get our 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If something’s not right, Tom comes back. One call. That’s it.
Our Bathroom Remodeling Services in Palm Beach Gardens
Our Bathroom Remodeling team handles the full scope, from gut-and-rebuild to focused updates. Here’s what most Palm Beach Gardens homeowners call us for.
Full Bathroom Remodeling
A full bathroom remodel in Palm Beach Gardens usually means tearing down to the studs, replacing the wet wall, upgrading the rough-in plumbing, and rebuilding to current South Florida code. Especially in the older 33410 homes, you’re not just swapping tile. You’re fixing forty-year-old cast iron and undersized supply lines. We scope that up front so you’re not blindsided mid-job.
Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling
Walk-in showers are the most requested upgrade we build in Palm Beach Gardens. Whether you’re in a 1990s BallenIsles home with a dated garden tub or a 1970s concrete-block rancher east of Military Trail, we design the waterproofing system to outlast the tile above it. We install Schluter systems on most shower rebuilds, and the curbless entry most clients want requires careful floor-recess planning in slab homes. We handle that without compromising the slab integrity.
Tub-to-Shower Conversion
Tub-to-shower conversions in Palm Beach Gardens run from about $3,500 to $10,000 depending on what’s behind the old tub. In MacArthur-era homes, that often means rotted subfloor and notched framing we have to correct before the new shower base goes in. We budget for that reality with a written allowance, so the price you approve is the price you pay. The change order comes before the work, never after.
Vanities, Tile & Fixtures
Sometimes the bones are fine, and the bathroom just looks tired. We replace vanities, retile floors and walls, swap out fixtures, and upgrade lighting. In Palm Beach Gardens, we lean on brands like Grohe and Sterling for fixtures that hold up to the humidity and hard water that hit South Florida bathrooms year-round. The vanity work itself runs from $800 to $3,000 depending on size and custom builds.

Trusted Brands We Service in Palm Beach Gardens
We’re not showing up with mystery-brand materials off a van. We install Schluter waterproofing systems on shower rebuilds, Grohe and Sterling fixtures where the budget allows, and GAF roofing products when a bathroom remodel spreads into a skylight or vent repair. Homeowners in Palm Beach Gardens can look up every product we quote. If a brand doesn’t hold up to South Florida humidity and salt air, we don’t put it in your house. And because we stock common replacement parts for our local service area, small fixes don’t sit waiting on a truck from Orlando.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Palm Beach Gardens Homes
- Cast-iron waste lines in 1960s-70s MacArthur-era homes. The eastern 33410 corridor is full of concrete-block homes with original cast-iron drain lines that have been corroding for fifty years. When we open a wall, we often find the pipe isn’t worth saving, and that changes the rough-in scope.
- Failed waterproofing behind old tile. Palm Beach County’s humidity plus a poorly sealed shower pan from a 1990s build means mold and rot behind the walls. You won’t see it until the tile comes off. We write a waterproofing allowance into every contract so that discovery doesn’t become a surprise invoice.
- HOA architectural review delays. In gated communities like BallenIsles, Mirasol, and PGA National, your HOA must approve the project before the city issues the permit. A contractor who doesn’t know that can leave you paying storage fees on a shower door while the paperwork crawls along.
- High-water-table slab concerns in western 33418. The flat, low-lying ground near Avenir and the western edges of the city means drainage gets real important. Moving a shower drain or toilet in a slab home requires careful planning so you don’t create a grade problem that sends water the wrong direction.

What moves the number most in Palm Beach Gardens is the age of the house and what’s behind the walls. A 2004 Mirasol home with modern plumbing might stay at the lower end. A 1972 slab home off Burns Road might not. That’s why we write allowances, not guesses, into every contract. You’ll know exactly what you’re approving, and any change comes as a written change order before we start that portion of the work. The estimate is free. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll walk your actual bathroom with you.

FAQs - Bathroom Remodeling in Palm Beach Gardens
Yes. In Palm Beach Gardens’ gated communities, your HOA’s architectural review board must approve the scope before the city permit gets issued. That dual sign-off adds two to three weeks to the timeline, more if the board has a queue. We handle both submissions for you, and we don’t start demo until both approvals are on file. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll walk you through the exact process for your community.
We write an allowance into the contract for the items we can’t see until demo starts. When we open a wall in a Palm Beach Gardens home and find rotted subfloor, cast-iron waste lines, or notched framing, we photograph it, we price it, and we bring you a written change order before we do anything else. The allowance that isn’t on paper is a surprise waiting for a date, and we don’t do surprises. You approve the number first. Always.
Yes, and we do it regularly. A tub-to-shower conversion in a Palm Beach Gardens slab home means evaluating the existing drainage, reinforcing the wet wall per current Florida Building Code wind-load requirements, and installing a waterproofing system that keeps moisture out of the block or studs. We frame the wet wall as load-bearing where required and we pull the permit. The inspection sign-off is part of the job. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll tell you what your specific layout will take.
Yes, for any structural, plumbing, or electrical change. That means drain relocation, moving a wall, swapping a tub for a shower, or touching the wet wall all require a permit in Palm Beach Gardens. The permit inspector works for you, not for me, which is exactly why we like him. Unpermitted work becomes your problem when you sell the house, and South Florida buyers know to look. We pull permits on every eligible job.
Because you can’t see behind a shower pan until it’s out. We give you a fixed price for everything we can see and written allowances for what we can’t. In older Palm Beach Gardens homes, that’s the part that matters. When we hit the point where the allowance gets used, you get a written change order with the exact cost before the work proceeds. No surprise invoices at the end. We put it on paper, you approve it, then we build it.
