Why Mason Remodeling Is Opa-locka’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
We’re not a sales operation that hands your project to whoever answers the phone. Every Mason Remodeling crew member is background-checked, identity-verified, and introduced to you by name and photo before they arrive. In Opa-locka, where our crews regularly work in neighborhoods like Magnolia North, Bunche Park, and along Opa-locka Boulevard, that matters more than a slick brochure.
Our crews understand what a 1950s CBS bath actually looks like once the tile comes off. That’s not something you learn from a franchise playbook. Homeowners in Opa-locka call us because we quote the real number up front and stand behind the work for 365 days from completion, in writing. If something isn’t right within a year, we make it right at no cost.
Styles & brands we work with
Bathroom Remodeling Contractor in Opa-locka
A Bathroom Remodeling contractor in Opa-locka does far more than swap a vanity and call it a day. In the city’s older housing stock, real remodels mean opening walls, checking the galvanized supply lines, inspecting the subfloor under the tub, and making the plumbing pass a Miami-Dade County inspection. That’s the difference between a quote that holds and one that falls apart mid-job.
Full Remodel Scope and Cost
A full bathroom remodel in Opa-locka runs $9,000 to $28,000. That range covers demolition to the studs in some cases, new rough-in plumbing where the old galvanized lines have failed, new shower valve and drainage, cement board, waterproofing, tile, a new tub or shower pan, vanity, and fixtures. Homes near the Opa-locka Executive Airport or in the Triangle district often need more hidden repair than homes built in the last twenty years, which pushes the number toward the upper end.
Permits and Inspections
We pull permits through Miami-Dade County on every Opa-locka bathroom remodel where plumbing moves or rough-in work is exposed. It’s not optional and we won’t waive it for a “cosmetic refresh” that actually involves the drain line. The inspector signs off before we close the walls. Written price before any work starts, and a written guarantee when it’s done.
Walk In Shower in Opa-locka
A Walk In Shower installation in Opa-locka costs between $4,500 and $12,000 depending on whether you’re converting a tub, working within the existing footprint, or adding a curbless entry. Mason Remodeling installs walk-in showers in Opa-locka homes every week, including curbless pans, bench seating, grab-bar blocking, and frameless glass enclosures. Call (803) 680-2547 to schedule a free estimate and get the exact line-item price in writing before you commit.
What the Job Involves
We start by checking the existing subfloor and drain location. In older Opa-locka homes, we frequently find rotted subfloor under the tub that has to be replaced before a shower pan goes down. Then we install the pan, waterproof the walls, tile, and finish with the glass enclosure and fixtures. Kohler and Moen valves are standard options we install regularly.
Not Just a Shower Swap
Some Opa-locka homeowners in Opa-locka think a walk-in shower is a one-week cosmetic job. It isn’t. Done to code, it means removing the old tub, reconfiguring the drain to a two-inch line, waterproofing, and often moving a supply line or two. We explain all of that before the first tool comes off the truck. The written price covers it, so nothing turns into a surprise invoice later.
Trusted Brands We Service in Opa-locka
We install and service fixtures and materials from Kohler, Moen, KraftMaid, and Silestone in Opa-locka homes, and we schedule material delivery around your project timeline instead of the other way around. If you’re already working with a designer on Cambria surfaces or a Toto toilet, we coordinate that directly. Mason Remodeling also works alongside modular and prefab bathroom systems from Cover and Mighty Buildings when a homeowner wants to explore factory-built options. We keep commonly needed rough-in parts on hand for Opa-locka’s older homes, which helps avoid a three-day wait on a supply-line fitting. Call (803) 680-2547 to talk through brands and lead times before you decide.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Opa-locka Homes
- Galvanized supply lines closing off. In Opa-locka’s 1940s-through-1950s CBS homes, the original thin-wall galvanized steel supply lines have had seventy-plus years of mineral buildup. We routinely find lines so constricted that the shower pressure is a trickle, even when the city main is fine. The fix is replacement to the wall, not a new showerhead.
- Rotted subfloors under cast-iron tubs. A cast-iron tub sitting on a 1950s subfloor has often leaked around the drain for decades quietly. By the time we open the wall in Opa-locka’s older homes, the subfloor under the tub is soft or crumbling. It has to come out before any tile goes down.
- Quotes that skip the hidden work. A photo-only quote cannot see what’s behind a mid-century wall in Opa-locka. Contractors who price a “typical” bathroom and then issue a change order when they find galvanized plumbing and rotted framing are common. We write the scope to include likely hidden conditions and price it before demolition, not after.
- Metal lath walls. Many Opa-locka CBS homes have plaster over metal lath rather than drywall. Cutting into that without dust control and proper disposal makes a mess you’ll live with for months. Our crews handle it as standard demolition practice here, because it’s what we see nearly every week.

What moves a Opa-locka remodel from the low end to the high end is hidden work. A 1950s CBS home on NW 135th Street with galvanized supply lines, a rotted subfloor, and metal lath walls will run higher than a 2000s townhome near Opa-locka Boulevard with drywall and copper. The material selections also matter. A KraftMaid vanity and Silestone top cost more than stock options, and we show you that difference in writing before you choose. The free estimate gives you a fixed line-item price. Call (803) 680-2547 and we’ll walk your specific bathroom and price the scope you actually have.

FAQs About Bathroom Remodeling in Opa-locka
Yes, if you’re moving plumbing, replacing drain lines, altering the shower valve, or exposing rough-in work, you need a permit pulled through Miami-Dade County for a Opa-locka bathroom remodel. Cosmetic-only work like painting or replacing a faucet typically does not require one. Mason Remodeling pulls the permit on every project where it’s required and the inspection sign-off happens before we close the walls. Call (803) 680-2547 and we’ll tell you whether your specific scope needs a permit before you spend a dime.
A bathroom remodel in Opa-locka runs $9,000 to $28,000 for a full project, and $5,000 to $12,000 for a small bathroom. Walk-in shower installations land between $4,500 and $12,000. The reason the range is wide is what’s behind the walls: older CBS homes with galvanized plumbing and rotted subfloors cost more than newer construction. Call (803) 680-2547 for a free written estimate on your specific bathroom.
Because the initial quote usually skips the hidden work. In Opa-locka’s 1940s and 1950s homes, opening a wall frequently reveals galvanized supply lines that need replacement, rotted subfloor under the tub, and metal lath instead of drywall. A contractor who quoted a photo or a “typical” number now has to issue a change order. Mason Remodeling prices the likely hidden scope up front and puts it in writing, so the quote you approve is the price you pay. Call (803) 680-2547 to get one written number before any demolition starts.
A full bathroom remodel in Opa-locka takes between three and six weeks from demolition to final inspection, depending on hidden conditions and material lead times. Cosmetic refreshes can run shorter, but a permit-required remodel with rough-in plumbing replacement realistically runs four weeks at minimum. We’ll give you a written schedule with the estimate. Call (803) 680-2547 for a timeline specific to your bathroom.
A draw schedule is the payment plan tied to completed milestones in your Opa-locka bathroom remodel, such as demolition, rough-in plumbing inspection, tile installation, and final sign-off. You pay a portion when each milestone is actually finished, not before. Mason Remodeling aligns the draw schedule with the written scope and inspection points, so you never pay ahead of work that hasn’t been done. Call (803) 680-2547 and we’ll walk you through exactly what a draw schedule looks like for your project.
