Fast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across Gladeview
A full bathroom remodel in Gladeview typically runs $9,000 – $28,000, with walk-in shower installations landing between $4,500 and $12,000. Most jobs take two to five weeks depending on whether we’re cutting into the slab. Call (803) 680-2547 for a written, line-item price before any work starts. We schedule free estimates across Gladeview, including the blocks off NW 22nd Avenue, NW 17th Avenue, and the neighborhoods east of NW 27th Avenue.
We’ve worked enough bathrooms in this part of Miami-Dade to know what’s under the tile before we lift it. That matters when you’re pricing a remodel you’ll live with for fifteen years. Isaac Pruett, who runs our Gladeview projects, makes sure the scope accounts for what the slab actually does here so the number we write down is the number you pay.
Why Mason Remodeling Is Gladeview’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
Gladeview homeowners call us because we put the price in writing before tools come off the truck. Not a verbal estimate. Not a rough range. A line-item scope of work that includes the slab conditions, drain rough-in, waterproofing, and fixtures, so there’s no invoice surprise in week three.
Every crew member who walks through your door in Gladeview is background-checked, identity-verified, and introduced to you by name and photo before the visit. That’s the Threshold Standard, and it’s not optional. You’ll see a photo ID badge at the door, and the person in your home is the person we told you to expect.
We’ve remodeled bathrooms in the mid-century concrete block homes that make up so much of Gladeview’s housing stock. We know the difference between a 1950s slab in the blocks near NW 71st Street and the newer construction patterns west of NW 27th Avenue. That local experience is why our quotes hold. It’s also why our 365-Day Done Right Promise means something real: if something isn’t right within a year of completion, we fix it at no cost to you.
Styles & brands we work with
Walk In Shower in Gladeview
A walk-in shower in Gladeview replaces a dated tub or cramped fiberglass stall with an open, curbless or low-curb shower pan, often with frameless glass. It’s the most-requested bathroom upgrade in the area because the older homes here were built with small tub-shower combos that no longer fit how people actually live. A walk-in shower installation in Gladeview runs $4,500 – $12,000, and a tub-to-shower conversion lands between $3,500 and $10,000 depending on the existing drain location, valve rough-in, and whether the slab must be opened.
The real cost driver in Gladeview is what’s under the floor. This part of Miami-Dade sits on oolitic limestone and coral rock, which means relocating a drain often requires cutting rock, not just chipping concrete. We write that excavation into the scope of work as a separate line item so you see it before we start, not as a change order after.
Slab-Cut Drain Re-Routing
When your new walk-in shower moves the drain location, we cut the slab to the depth required by Miami-Dade code, set new PVC waste line, and re-pour. In Gladeview, that’s frequently a limestone cut rather than standard concrete removal, which adds labor but prevents the slow leaks that rot framing and invite mold.
Waterproofing and Threshold Details
We use Schluter strip, the metal trim that seals the edge where tile meets the shower floor, because Gladeview’s humidity demands a waterproofing system that won’t yield to moisture. Every shower pan gets a flood test before tile goes down, and the threshold is built to keep water off your bathroom floor, not just look clean.
Bathroom Remodeling Companies in Gladeview
Bathroom remodeling companies in Gladeview range from one-man operations working out of a pickup to full-service firms with crews, warranty programs, and written contracts. The difference shows up when the slab hides a rotted cast-iron drain or the permit inspector flags unpermitted rough-in work behind the new tile. A complete bathroom remodel in Gladeview runs $9,000 – $28,000, and the companies worth calling are the ones who can explain exactly what that range covers.
We’re not the budget bid. We’re the company that gives you a written price, a crew you can identify by name and photo, and a full-year guarantee. For older Gladeview homes, that combination usually saves money by the time the job is done, because the price doesn’t grow when the slab surprises show up.
What Separates a Good Bid from a Bad One
A good Gladeview bid includes a slab-excavation allowance, a written fixture allowance, and a permit line item. A bad one hides those costs until the tile is off. We’ve seen homeowners talk to companies that bid a “standard” bathroom remodel without accounting for the cast-iron drain under a 1950s tub, then get a change order for thousands when the pipe crumbled on contact.
Written Price, Named Crew, One Call
Before we start, you get the written scope, the price, the timeline, and the name and photo of the technician who’ll be in your home. You don’t get a phone tree. A live person answers our office line 24 hours a day, every day, including weekends and holidays.

AfterCommon Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Gladeview Homes
- Rotted cast-iron drain lines under 1950s and 1960s slabs. The original waste pipes in Gladeview’s mid-century block homes are past their lifespan. When we lift a tub or shower pan, the pipe underneath is often cracked, rusted through, or partially collapsed.
- Limestone slab conditions that complicate drain relocation. Gladeview sits on the Miami-Dade limestone ridge, so moving a toilet or shower drain frequently means cutting solid oolitic rock. Unplanned, that’s a budget killer. Planned, it’s just a line item.
- Unpermitted prior work that fails inspection. A homeowner saved a few hundred dollars by skipping a permit a decade ago. Now the rough-in behind the tile doesn’t meet current code, and the wall has to come open before the remodel can pass sign-off.
- Verbal allowances that don’t match the finished look. A homeowner picks tile and fixtures mid-job, and the “allowance” in the original quote doesn’t cover them. Without a written change order, the argument is unwinnable. We write allowances in dollars and sign off on every change before it’s ordered.

FAQs About Bathroom Remodeling in Gladeview
Because Gladeview sits on Miami-Dade’s limestone ridge, which means drain relocation and slab work often require cutting solid oolitic limestone or coral rock rather than standard concrete removal. The older post-war housing stock here also hides failed cast-iron drains, which add rough-in replacements that a newer-build city wouldn’t face. Our field crew took on a hall-bath remodel off NW 22nd Avenue near the Gladeview/Little River line where the 1950s slab hid a failed cast-iron drain under the original tub. We cut the rock, re-poured around a new PVC rough-in, then set a KraftMaid vanity with a Silestone top and a Kohler shower valve, and the project only stayed on budget because the slab condition was written into the scope of work as a line item before we started. Call (803) 680-2547 for a written quote that accounts for Gladeview’s actual ground conditions.
Yes, any remodel that moves plumbing, changes the drain rough-in, or alters electrical in a Gladeview bathroom requires a Miami-Dade County building permit, and the work must pass inspection before the walls close. Skipping the permit to save a few hundred dollars creates a problem when you sell, because a future buyer’s inspector will find unpermitted rough-in work behind the new tile and the deal can stall or die. We pull the permits, coordinate the inspection schedule, and don’t cover work until it passes.
A standard Gladeview bathroom remodel takes two to five weeks from permit approval to final walkthrough, with slab work, drain re-routing, and custom shower builds pushing the timeline toward the longer end. A cosmetic refresh with no plumbing moves can finish in ten to fourteen working days. We give you a calendar in writing before we start, including inspection days and material lead times, and we don’t start until it’s realistic.
The number changes only when the written scope changes, and that happens in two cases: you choose a fixture or tile that exceeds the written allowance, or we open the wall and find conditions that nobody could have known about before demolition. We handle the first with a written change order you approve before we order anything. We handle the second by writing a condition allowance into the original bid for slab excavation, drain replacement, and framing repair, so the most common Gladeview surprises are already priced.
Yes, a tub-to-shower conversion keeps your existing bathroom footprint and replaces the tub with a walk-in shower, typically for $3,500 – $10,000 in Gladeview. The job includes drain repositioning, waterproofing, tile or acrylic wall surround, and shower valve replacement. The conversion works best when your surrounding tile and vanity are in good condition and you just want to lose the tub, which is the most common request we hear from Gladeview homeowners looking to age in place. Call (803) 680-2547 to schedule a free estimate and we’ll tell you if a conversion or a full remodel makes more sense for your bathroom.
