Fast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across Miami
A full bathroom remodel in Miami typically runs $10,620 to $33,040, with smaller baths starting around $5,900. Most projects we handle in Miami-Dade take two to five weeks from demo to final inspection, depending on permit review and waterproofing requirements under the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone code. If you’re planning a Bathroom Remodeling project in a condo off Brickell Avenue or a 1950s ranch in Westchester, you’ll want a crew that knows Miami-Dade inspections before they ever open a wall. Call (803) 680-2547 and we’ll walk you through what your specific bathroom needs, what it costs, and what the calendar looks like.
We’re Mason Remodeling. Since 2004, we’ve been part of the Threshold Group family of home-service companies, and every crew member who arrives at your Miami home is background-checked, identity-verified, and introduced to you by name and photo before the visit. You get a written price before any work starts. Not a verbal estimate. Not a range that shifts once the tile comes up. A written number, on paper, before we unpack a single tool.
Why Mason Remodeling Is Miami’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
Bathroom remodels in Miami are different from anywhere else in Florida. The Miami-Dade building department enforces the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone provisions of the Florida Building Code, which means waterproofing details, exterior wall openings, and window or door specs get scrutinized more heavily here than in Broward or Palm Beach. A remodeler who doesn’t know that will lose you two or three weeks on failed inspections and rework. We know it because we pull Miami-Dade permits on bathroom projects regularly, and our crews are familiar with what inspectors in this county actually look for.
Every crew member arrives in a clean, marked uniform and shows a photo ID badge at the door. This is the Threshold Standard, and it’s not optional. Homeowners tell us this matters more in Miami than almost anywhere, because so many residents live alone, have young children, or are older adults who think carefully about who they let inside. You’ll know the name and face of every person on your job before they arrive.
When the work is done, you’re covered by our 365-Day Done Right Promise. If something isn’t right within a year of completion, we make it right at no cost to you. That’s a written guarantee with stated terms, not a handshake.

Tub to Shower Conversion in Miami
Tub to Shower Conversion in Miami is one of the most common bathroom projects we do, especially in neighborhoods like Little Havana, Allapattah, and the Upper Eastside where homes built in the 1940s through 1970s still have the original cast-iron tubs. The job means removing the old tub, relocating the drain to the shower footprint, re-waterproofing the entire wet area, and installing a shower pan, valve, and glass or curtain setup. In Miami, the conversion typically costs $4,130 to $11,800 depending on whether you’re keeping the existing footprint or moving the drain, and whether you choose a prefabricated pan or a custom tile base.
Most Miami homeowners make this switch for two reasons: accessibility and space. Older tubs are high-sided and hard to step into safely. A low-threshold or curbless shower is easier for aging adults, and it visually opens a small bathroom in a Coral Way or Shenandoah bungalow. We’ll handle the permit, the rough-in, and the waterproofing so your conversion passes inspection the first time around.
Permit and Waterproofing Reality
Miami-Dade inspectors require a waterproofing system that meets HVHZ standards before you ever get to tile. We install Schluter waterproofing membrane, a system with a written track record for Miami’s humidity and occasional water intrusion from tropical storms. Expect a permit review and at least one rough-in inspection. We handle all of that, and we tell you up front how long it adds to the calendar.
Accessibility Upgrades We Recommend
If you’re converting because someone in the home uses a cane, walker, or wheelchair, options include a fold-down shower seat anchored to blocking behind the tile, a grab bar package, a handheld shower head, and a curbless entry where the slab allows it. We’ve done this work in homes from Hialeah to Key Biscayne, and we’ll spec the right fixtures for the person actually using the shower.
One Day Bath Remodel in Miami
One Day Bath Remodel in Miami is a real option when the bones of your bathroom are sound and you’re replacing surfaces rather than moving plumbing. The job means swapping the tub or shower unit, faucet, and hardware in a single day using a prefabricated wall system and pan that fits over the existing footprint. In Miami, this runs $5,900 to $14,160 for most small to mid-size bathrooms, depending on the material and valve choice.
This is not the right path if you have water damage behind the walls, if you want to move drains, or if your bathroom needs updated electrical or ventilation. Miami’s humidity is unforgiving, and hiding old moisture problems under new acrylic is a bad idea. We’ll tell you, flat out, whether your bathroom is a candidate for a one-day job or whether it needs open-wall work.
What One-Day Remodeling Does and Doesn’t Cover
In one day, our crew removes the old tub or surround, installs the new prefabricated base and wall system, sets the shower valve, and replaces hardware. We repair minor subfloor damage if we find it. What it doesn’t cover: tile demolition, drain relocation, new lighting, exhaust fan replacement, or custom glass enclosures. Those add days and cost, and we’ll put it in the written price before we start.
Is a One-Day Bath Worth It in Older Miami Homes?
In a 1960s Miami Shores ranch or a 1980s Doral townhouse with good original framing, a one-day bath can be a smart, fast fix that gets you a clean, functional shower without a three-week remodel. If the subfloor is soft from decades of humidity and past plumbing leaks, we’ll recommend pulling the old floor and doing it right. The one-day route is for surface-level work only. We won’t put new material over a structural problem.
Trusted Brands We Service in Miami
We install and work on fixtures from Kohler, Moen, Toto, and Grohe, plus cabinetry from KraftMaid and Wellborn and surfaces from Cambria, Silestone, and Caesarstone. For Miami customers, that means you get specification-grade products that hold up to hard water and high humidity, and we can source local stock quickly through established supplier relationships in the metro area. If a valve or panel arrives damaged or wrong, we correct it before the project stalls. When a homeowner asks about factory-built or prefabricated options, we can walk through what companies like Abodu and Cover offer versus a site-built remodel, and where modular thinking makes sense for a Miami home.

AfterCommon Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Miami Homes
- HVHZ waterproofing misses. Miami-Dade inspectors fail bathroom rough-ins all the time for waterproofing details that would pass in other counties. We’ve fixed showers where the previous contractor used drywall behind tile with no membrane. That gets torn out and redone before the tile ever goes up.
- Soft subfloors under old tubs. Humidity, condensation from uninsulated pipes, and decades of slow leaks rot plywood under the tub or shower. It’s common in Miami homes built before 1980. We plan for it, but if we find more rot than the written price assumed, you’ll see the change before we proceed, in writing.
- Impact-rated window and door requirements. If your remodel opens an exterior wall or replaces a bathroom window, Miami-Dade requires impact-rated or protected openings. The cost difference is real, and we’ll flag it during the estimate so you’re not surprised at permit time.
- Wrong fixture clearances for older homes. A lot of Miami’s housing stock was built before current code minimums for toilet and shower clearances. Moving a wall or reframing a pocket door can add cost. We’ll measure and tell you up front what code requires.

FAQs About Bathroom Remodeling in Miami
A typical bathroom remodel in Miami-Dade takes two to five weeks from demolition to final inspection. Permit review alone often adds one to three weeks because HVHZ requirements mean more detailed plan review. Our crew recently finished a bathroom remodel in the Little Havana neighborhood off SW 8th Street, converting a worn tub to a walk-in shower. We pulled the Miami-Dade permits, re-ran the rough-in for the new drain, set a Schluter waterproofing system, and installed a Moen valve with a Kohler shower pan. The inspection sign-off came through after one correction on the pan slope, and the project wrapped in about three weeks from demo to punch list. Call (803) 680-2547 and we’ll give you a realistic calendar for your specific project.
Yes, most bathroom remodels in Miami require a Miami-Dade permit, especially anything that touches plumbing, electrical, or waterproofing. Surface-level work like replacing a faucet or vanity top may not need one, but a tub-to-shower conversion, any drain work, or opening walls does. We pull the permits, coordinate inspections, and make sure the work is signed off. If your project needs a permit, it’s included in the written price.
We install Kohler, Moen, Toto, and Grohe fixtures, KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinetry, and Cambria, Silestone, and Caesarstone surfaces. These are specification-grade brands that hold up to Miami’s humidity and hard water. We can also talk through prefabricated options from companies like Abodu if you’re weighing a modular approach against a traditional site-built remodel. Call (803) 680-2547 for an exact quote on the brands you want.
The biggest cost drivers in Miami are whether you move plumbing or keep the existing footprint, the condition of the subfloor under the old tub or shower, the tile and fixture selections you make, and whether the project triggers impact-rated window or door requirements. Permits and inspections in Miami-Dade also run higher than neighboring counties because of the HVHZ code. A small bathroom remodel starts around $5,900, and a full remodel of a larger bathroom runs up to $33,040. We write every cost into a line-item estimate before work begins, and the price doesn’t change unless you change the scope.
