Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Wilton Manors’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
Wilton Manors is not like remodeling a house a mile west. The Middle River wraps around this city, and that canal air works on concrete block, rebar, and window frames in ways most contractors never see until they open a wall. We see it every week. Tom Barrett founded this company in 1998, and his sons run crews that know the difference between a dry slab in Oakland Park and a canal-adjacent slab in Wilton Manors where the water table sits just feet below grade. That knowledge changes the fastener specs, the vapor barrier, and the way we bid the job before a single nail moves.
Our Wilton Manors customers call us back because the permit inspector works for you, not for us. That’s why we like him. We pull Broward County permits on every eligible bathroom remodel, and we write every allowance, every scope change, and every price adjustment as a written change order before the work happens. The allowance that isn’t on paper is a surprise waiting for a date, and you won’t get one from us. Ask anyone on your street, or look up Tom Barrett’s license number yourself. We publish it.
Our Bathroom Remodeling Services in Wilton Manors
We’re a Bathroom Remodeling company that does everything from full gut renovations to focused upgrades. Here’s what we handle most often in Wilton Manors homes.
Full Bathroom Remodeling
A full remodel in Wilton Manors usually means opening walls in a 1950s or 1960s CBS ranch, replacing corroded plumbing, leveling the slab, and rebuilding the room to current Broward County code. We handle the demo, the plumbing rough-in, the electrical, the waterproofing, the tile, the vanity, the glass, and the final inspection. On canal-adjacent lots, we also scope the vapor barrier and stem-wall detailing before we give you a price, because moisture wicking under new tile is a real problem when the water table is that close.
Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling
Walk-in shower installation in Wilton Manors runs $4,500 to $12,000, depending on tile choices, glass enclosure, and how much structural repair the existing alcove needs. We build curbless entries where the slab allows, and we spec epoxy-coated or stainless fasteners on every job near the canals. Frameless glass enclosures look clean in these older bungalows, but the framing behind them has to be right first. We make it right before the glass goes in.
Tub-to-Shower Conversion
This is the single most popular project in Wilton Manors’s older ranch homes. Original tubs from the 1960s are deep, narrow, and often sitting on compromised subfloors. A tub-to-shower conversion in Wilton Manors runs $3,500 to $10,000. We remove the tub, rebuild the pan, replace the valve, and install the shower surround and glass. If we find what our crew found on NE 21st Court (more on that below), we write the change order and tell you before we spend a dollar of your money.
Vanities, Tile & Fixtures
Maybe you don’t need a full remodel. Maybe you need a new vanity, a tile floor, and fixtures that don’t leak. Bathroom vanity installation in Wilton Manors runs $800 to $3,000. We install KraftMaid and other brands you can look up, not mystery boxes off a van. Tile work is quoted by the square foot after we know what’s under the floor. In Wilton Manors, that often means terrazzo that someone covered up decades ago, and whether we keep it or remove it changes the approach.

Trusted Brands We Service in Wilton Manors
We carry premium brands because we’re putting our name on them. Simonton windows go into bathroom openings where old jalousies used to be. PGT impact-rated windows get spec’d when a canal-adjacent bathroom needs a new opening and the Broward County wind code applies. We don’t install off-brand products from the back of a van and call it a deal. You can look up every material we quote, and we’ll put the exact brand and model in writing before you sign.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Wilton Manors Homes
- Canal air corrosion in original window frames. On a 1960s CBS ranch off NE 21st Court, we opened a hall bath for a tub-to-shower conversion and found the original jalousie window frame corroded through. Canal air does that. We pulled a Broward County permit, replaced it with an impact-rated casement, then discovered the subfloor over the terrazzo needed leveling before rough-in. We wrote the allowance for the window, the change order for the subfloor, and got inspection sign-off before closing the wall.
- Chloride corrosion of rebar and fasteners. The canal-encircled geography of Wilton Manors accelerates chloride-driven corrosion of rebar and structural fasteners beyond what’s typical a mile inland. That’s why we spec epoxy-coated or stainless fasteners on nearly every bathroom project here. A contractor from Fort Lauderdale proper might not, because they don’t deal with it daily.
- High water table under canal-adjacent slabs. The water table sits just feet below grade on many Wilton Manors lots. If you tile a bathroom slab without a proper vapor barrier and stem-wall detailing, you get moisture wicking through the grout lines within a year. We scope that from the start.
- Failing seawalls blocking rear additions. If your bathroom remodel includes pushing into the rear setback on a canal-front lot, Broward County inspectors will flag a deteriorating 1950s or 1960s seawall during the permit pull. That seawall rebuild can cost tens of thousands before your bathroom addition is even approved. We check for this during our initial walkthrough, not after you’ve already committed to a design.

FAQs - Bathroom Remodeling in Wilton Manors
Yes, in most cases. Broward County inspectors will flag a deteriorating original 1950s or 1960s concrete seawall during the permit pull for any rear-setback addition on a canal-front lot in Wilton Manors. If that seawall is failing, you’ll need to budget a full or partial rebuild before the bathroom addition can be approved. We check for this during our first walkthrough so you’re not surprised later. Call (877) 610-1318 for a free assessment.
We spec epoxy-coated or stainless fasteners, corrosion-resistant anchors, and concrete sealants on nearly every Wilton Manors bathroom project. The canal-encircled geography accelerates chloride-driven corrosion of rebar and structural fasteners beyond what you’d see a mile inland in Oakland Park or Fort Lauderdale proper. Using the wrong fastener here isn’t a minor mistake; it’s a wall failure waiting to happen. We put the specs in writing.
We install a vapor barrier and detail the stem wall before any tile goes down on a canal-adjacent slab in Wilton Manors. The water table sits just feet below grade on many of these lots, and without that barrier, moisture wicks upward through the slab and into the grout lines. You’ll see efflorescence or loose tile within a year. We scope it from day one, not after the job is done.
Because canal air in Wilton Manors corrodes the steel and aluminum frames of original jalousie windows until they can’t be salvaged. During a tub-to-shower conversion off NE 21st Court, our crew found the original jalousie window frame corroded through. We pulled a Broward County permit and replaced it with an impact-rated casement window. It’s not an upsell. It’s what the code and the climate require. We’ll show you the rotted frame before we write the change order.
Yes, we can work around original terrazzo floors in many small bathroom remodels in Wilton Manors. It depends on what’s under the floor and whether we need to access plumbing below the slab. In some cases we cut channels for new plumbing and patch with matching materials. In others, the terrazzo is too compromised to save. We’ll tell you which one you have before we bid. Call (877) 610-1318 for an exact quote, estimates are free.
