Fast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across Golden Glades
A full bathroom remodel in Golden Glades runs $9,000 to $28,000, with small bathrooms and tub-to-shower conversions landing closer to $5,000 to $12,000. What you pay comes down to what’s behind the walls: in this corridor’s 1960s block homes, that often means original cast-iron drains and shallow wall cavities that a flat-price quote won’t catch until demolition starts. As a General Contractor in Golden Glades, Mason Remodeling prices everything after we see the job, not before, so the number you sign is the number you pay.

Why Mason Remodeling Is Golden Glades’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
We’ve worked on enough Golden Glades bathrooms to know exactly what this housing stock throws at a crew. Homes along NW 7th Avenue, NW 167th Street, and the side streets off US-441 were mostly built between 1955 and 1975. That means original cast-iron waste lines, galvanized supply pipes, and 2×6 framing that limits how deep a vanity can sit without relocating plumbing. We scope for those conditions during the estimate, not after the sledgehammer comes out.
Every crew member who walks through your door has been background-checked, identity-verified, and will have shown you their name and photo before the visit. They arrive in a clean marked uniform and carry a photo ID badge. That’s the Threshold Standard, and it’s not optional on any Mason Remodeling job. A written price comes before any work starts. A written guarantee covers every project for 365 days from the completion date.
Styles & brands we work with
Bathroom Remodeling Companies in Golden Glades
Bathroom Remodeling Companies in Golden Glades range from one-truck operations to full design-build firms, and the difference shows up in the contract. What you want is a company that opens walls before it locks a price, pulls permits when the scope requires, and puts every allowance in writing. Our Bathroom Remodeling team runs Golden Glades jobs from the Miami office, with crews dispatched locally so you’re not waiting on a scheduler across the county.
Full Bathroom Remodeling
A full bathroom remodel takes the room down to studs and rebuilds it: new shower or tub, tile, vanity, fixtures, lighting, and often relocation of plumbing. In Golden Glades, most full remodels run $9,000 to $28,000 depending on the size of the room and what the existing drain lines look like. If we find corroded cast-iron or a rotted subfloor, we tell you before any work continues, with a revised written price so there’s never a surprise invoice.
Small Bathroom Remodels
Small bathrooms in Golden Glades block homes, especially the 5×7 foot halls and powder rooms off the carport, usually land between $5,000 and $12,000. The smaller footprint means less tile and fewer fixtures, but it doesn’t mean the permit path or the plumbing inspection changes. We still scope the drain, still pull the permit, and still write the price before demolition day.
Bathroom Renovation in Golden Glades
Bathroom Renovation in Golden Glades often means partial work rather than a full gut: a tub-to-shower conversion, a new vanity, or a shower replacement while the rest of the room stays put. Homeowners choose this route when the bones are still solid but the surface is failing. In these 1960s block homes, that calculus depends on what the drain inspection shows. If the waste line is still cast iron and rusting, a partial renovation can turn into a full one quickly, and we’d rather you know that before you commit.
Tub-to-Shower Conversion
Converting a tub to a walk-in shower in Golden Glades runs $3,500 to $10,000. The range depends on whether we’re keeping the existing drain location or moving it, and whether the shower needs a Schluter strip (the metal trim that seals the edge where tile meets flooring), a curb, or a full waterproofing membrane. Older block homes often have a 1.5-inch drain line where a shower needs 2 inches, which means opening the slab to re-pipe, a cost that should be in the original written price, not a change order after the fact.
Shower Replacement
Replacing a failing shower in Golden Glades, whether it’s fiberglass that’s cracked or tile that’s let water into the studs, runs $3,000 to $8,500. We remove the old enclosure or tile, inspect the framing and waterproofing, and rebuild to current Miami-Dade building code, which now requires a waterproof membrane behind all shower wall surfaces. If the old shower was installed without one, and many were, that’s exactly what we fix.
Trusted Brands We Service in Golden Glades
We install and work around the brands Golden Glades homeowners actually ask for: Kohler and Moen fixtures, KraftMaid and Wellborn vanities, Cambria and Silestone countertops. If you’ve already picked your materials, we’ll spec the job around them. If you haven’t, we’ll bring samples to your estimate. For tile, we work with Schluter waterproofing systems on every wet area because the humidity here doesn’t give second chances. For niche details like shower seats and curbs, we use the same spec-grade products whether the job is $5,000 or $28,000.

AfterCommon Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Golden Glades Homes
- Corroded cast-iron drain lines. Homes built in the 1960s along the Golden Glades corridor of NW 7th Avenue and NW 167th Street often still have original cast-iron waste pipes, and by now they’re rusting from the inside out. We camera-inspect the drain before we quote, because if that pipe fails mid-project, it changes the scope and the price.
- Shallow 2×6 wall cavities. Older Golden Glades block homes don’t always have the depth behind the drywall that newer construction does. That affects which vanities will fit, where supply lines can run, and whether a shower valve can be recessed enough to meet code without bumping into the exterior block.
- Missing or failed waterproofing. We regularly pull out tile surrounds in Golden Glades where the original installer set tile directly on drywall or green board with no membrane. The tile looks fine until water gets behind it and the studs start to rot. In this humidity, that failure shows up faster than in drier climates.
- Unpermitted prior work. It’s common here to open a bathroom and find a prior owner moved a drain or added a shower without a permit. That unpermitted work becomes your problem at resale, and it also complicates our scope. We pull the permit, bring the work to current code, and pass the county inspection so the paper trail is clean.

FAQs About Bathroom Remodeling in Golden Glades
Yes, for most bathroom remodeling in Golden Glades, especially any work that moves plumbing, changes the drain line, or alters framing. Miami-Dade County requires a permit, and if you’re in the parts of Golden Glades that fall under that jurisdiction, the inspection cycle applies. A tub-to-shower conversion that relocates a drain or swaps a 1.5-inch line for a 2-inch line definitely requires one. Mason Remodeling pulls the permit, schedules the inspections, and walks you through the final sign-off. Call (803) 680-2547 if you want to know where your specific project lands.
The three biggest cost drivers in Golden Glades are drain condition, wall depth, and material allowances. Original cast-iron drains often need replacement, which means cutting into the slab. Shallow 2×6 walls limit vanity and valve options, sometimes requiring supply line relocation. And material allowances for tile, fixtures, and countertops swing widely: Cambria or Silestone will push a vanity top well past a basic cultured marble. We write every allowance as a specific dollar figure so you know exactly where the budget sits. Call (803) 680-2547 for a scoped estimate on your specific bathroom.
Plan on 3 to 5 weeks for a full bathroom remodel in Golden Glades. A tub-to-shower conversion or shower replacement usually runs 1 to 2 weeks. The wildcard in older block homes is the drain inspection: if we have to re-pipe under the slab, that adds days. We give you a written schedule with your written price, and if the schedule changes, you’ll know why before it happens. Estimates are free; call (803) 680-2547 to get a timeline for your project.
If we find a failed drain, rotted subfloor, or a code issue after opening walls, we stop work, show you the problem, and give you a revised written price before continuing. The change order is not a surprise; it’s a documented revision. We don’t proceed on a handshake. That’s what separates a scoped remodel from a flat-price quote that gets blown apart the moment the tile comes off. If you’re comparing quotes in Golden Glades, call (803) 680-2547 and ask us to walk you through exactly what we inspect before we quote.
Yes, and we do it often in Golden Glades. If your vanity is in good shape and the drain under it is solid, we can replace just the shower or tub surround for $3,000 to $8,500 depending on size and waterproofing scope. We’ll still camera the drain, still pull a permit if the plumbing changes, and still wrap the job with the 365-day guarantee. Call (803) 680-2547 and we’ll tell you if your vanity can stay or if it’s better off going with the rest of the room.
