What's in a Miami bathroom remodel — shown, not listed

Six scopes of work, one bathroom contractor, one CGC1530409 permit. Everything below is in your written contract before demo — no "we'll figure that out later."

Vanity & Cabinetry

Vanity & Cabinetry

Custom or semi-custom vanities built for a bathroom, not a bedroom. We spec marine-grade plywood or moisture-rated boxes with soft-close hardware, because MDF in a Miami bathroom swells and delaminates within a few seasons. Wall-hung, floating, or floor-set — sized to your plumbing rough-in and the way you actually use the space.

Tile & Waterproofing

Tile & Waterproofing

This is the part that decides whether your bathroom lasts. We build a full waterproofing membrane behind and beneath the tile — shower pans, curbs, niches, and wet walls sealed as a system before a single tile goes up. Large-format porcelain, mosaic, or handmade zellige, all set with proper slope and movement joints. Tile installation done right is what separates a 20-year bathroom from a 3-year problem.

Shower, Tub & Glass

Shower, Tub & Glass

Curbless walk-ins, tub-to-shower conversions, soaking tubs, and steam showers. Frameless glass templated and installed after tile so the panels sit flush with no gaps. We handle linear and point drains, bench seating, niches, and the slope work that keeps water going where it should.

Plumbing Rework

Plumbing Rework

Repiping supply lines, relocating drains, moving the toilet flange, and pressure-testing before anything gets closed up. Older Coral Gables and Miami Shores homes hide cast-iron and galvanized runs that fail at the worst time. We open the wall, show you what's back there, and price the honest fix — not paper over it.

Electrical & Lighting

Electrical & Lighting

GFCI protection, dedicated circuits, exhaust wiring, and layered lighting — vanity, ambient, and shower cans rated for wet locations. We add the outlets you'll actually reach for and put dimmers where they earn their keep. All permitted and inspected, so the panel matches the paper.

Ventilation & Exhaust

Ventilation & Exhaust

A correctly sized exhaust fan ducted to the exterior, not into your attic. In a climate that runs humid ten months a year, this is the line between a clean bathroom and a mold problem in year two. We size CFM to the room, add a humidity or timer switch, and seal the duct run.

Homeowner's guide to bathroom remodeling in Miami

A bathroom is the hardest room in your house to get right, and Miami makes it harder. You're building a small, water-heavy space inside a climate that runs above 70% humidity for most of the year, with salt in the air and mold spores looking for any surface you left unsealed. Get the waterproofing and ventilation right and a bathroom remodel in Miami is one of the best returns you'll ever spend on a home here. Get them wrong and you'll be tearing it out again in three years, this time with rot behind the wall.

What a bathroom remodel means in Miami-Dade

A remodel here is not a weekend of new fixtures. When you open a bathroom wall in a South Florida home, you find out what the last person did — and often it's less than you'd hope. We regularly pull tile off shower walls to find no waterproofing membrane at all, just cement board and a prayer. Homes from the 60s and 70s in Miami Shores, Coral Gables, and the older parts of Pinecrest hide cast-iron drains that are half-rusted through and galvanized supply lines choked down to a pencil-width opening.

The real work is structural and mechanical before it's ever cosmetic. Plumbing rough-in, waterproofing, ventilation, and electrical all have to be built as a system that assumes water will find every gap — because in this climate it will. The finishes you picked on Houzz are the last 20% of the job. The first 80% is what determines whether you're happy in year five. That's why bathroom remodeling in Miami requires a licensed general contractor who understands South Florida construction, not just a tile crew that works weekends.

Waterproofing — the decision that determines everything

There is no shortcut here. A proper waterproofing system for a Miami bathroom means a bonded membrane — either sheet-applied or liquid — that covers the shower pan, the curb, the lower walls, and every penetration: drains, screws, niches. It means a pre-pour liner under a curbless slab-level drain. It means movement joints at corners so the tile assembly can expand in the heat without cracking the membrane behind it.

Most of the failed bathrooms we tear out had no membrane. Some had a single coat of RedGard on the shower floor only. In a Miami bathroom that gets used daily, that's three years before water migrates into the framing and you have a mold problem behind the wall. We don't install tile until the waterproofing layer has been independently inspected. That's not a selling point — it's the only way we know how to build.

What a bathroom remodel costs in Miami

A standard 5×9 hall or guest bathroom starts at $15,000. A primary suite bathroom starts at $25,000. Where a specific project lands above that depends on scope — how much plumbing moves, whether the shower goes curbless, the tile and stone you choose, and what we find once the wall is open.

Every project is a fixed line-item contract. What you sign is what you pay — the only additions are conditions that could not be seen before demo, priced in writing with your sign-off before the work happens.

Bathroom remodeling contractors in Miami — what to look for

The question every Miami homeowner should ask before signing a bathroom remodeling contract: is this a licensed general contractor or a tile crew with a business card? A licensed GC pulls the permit, takes legal responsibility for the waterproofing, plumbing, and electrical, and can be held accountable if something fails. A tile-only crew installs what you pick and leaves. Bathroom remodeling contractors in Miami under FL CGC1530409 are legally required to pull permits for plumbing relocation, electrical work, and structural changes — the work that determines whether your bathroom lasts twenty years or three.

Tile choices for South Florida conditions

Large-format rectified porcelain is the right default — 24×24" or 24×48", minimal grout lines, impervious surface, easy to maintain in high humidity. Natural stone (marble, travertine, limestone) is appropriate but requires sealing on install and annual maintenance. The tile you choose matters less than how it's installed: consistent thinset coverage (95% minimum on wet surfaces), proper slope to every drain, movement joints at floor-to-wall transitions.

Curbless showers on a concrete slab

Can you do a curbless walk-in on a concrete slab? Yes — but it requires specific planning. The drain has to be set at the right depth during rough-in. The slope has to be built into the mortar bed or, on an older slab, created by lowering the drain. We assess feasibility during the walk-through and include the slope work in the fixed price. A curbless shower done correctly is also ADA-compliant, which matters for aging-in-place and adds value at resale.

Plumbing in older Miami homes

Homes built before 1975 regularly have galvanized supply lines, cast-iron drain stacks, and undersized copper. We have to look inside the wall before we can tell you what you have. When we find galvanized supply lines, we repipe with CPVC or PEX. When we find cast-iron drains that are cracked or scaling, we show you video and price the repair as a separate line item with your sign-off before any work begins. No surprises, no "while we were in there" invoices.

Bathroom remodeling across South Florida

We complete bathroom renovations throughout Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties, including Miami Beach, North Miami, Aventura, Coral Gables, Pinecrest, Kendall, Hollywood, Fort Lauderdale, Dania Beach, Boca Raton, West Palm Beach, and surrounding communities.

Our team handles both condo and single-family home renovations, including HOA and building documentation, certificates of insurance, service-elevator scheduling, delivery coordination, and noise-hour requirements where applicable. Projects range from small guest bathroom remodels to full primary bathroom renovations and suite expansions.

We also take on projects beyond these areas when the scope and logistics are a good fit. All work is performed under Florida Certified General Contractor license FL CGC1530409.

Permits — why they matter more than you think

A bathroom remodel in Miami-Dade requires a permit whenever plumbing, electrical, or structural work is involved. Contractors who skip permits put the liability on you — an unpermitted bathroom shows up in the permit history search every real estate attorney runs and can kill or discount a home sale. We pull every permit, attend every inspection, and hand you a Certificate of Completion at project closeout.

How a bathroom remodel actually gets built here

Three stages, written into every bathroom remodeling contract in Miami. A standard 5×9 bathroom runs two to three weeks; a primary suite bath, four to six. We don't move to the next stage until you sign off on the previous.

Stage 01
Week 1
Demo, Rough Plumbing & Electric
Plastic-walled containment, then the old bathroom comes out. Plumbing and electrical are re-run inside open walls and inspected on permit before anything gets closed up.
Stage 02
Week 2
Close Walls, Waterproof & Start Tile
Drywall and durock go up, then the bonded waterproofing membrane over the pan, curb, lower walls and every penetration — independently inspected before the first tile is set.
Stage 03
Week 3
Fixtures, Vanities & Hardware
Plumbing fixtures, vanity, frameless glass templated after tile, hardware and paint. Punch list closed before hand-off, and we come back at day 365 to re-caulk and adjust.

Miami First Remodeling was so easy to work with. They have a project manager, designer, supervisors, field crew, and a showroom, so everything was organized and simple. Before this, I used handymen for my projects and I will never do that again. Working with a real remodeling company made a huge difference. I love my two new bathrooms and I am very happy with the work.

Selling our house and my realtor said we'd get 40k more if we refreshed the entry, kitchen, and primary bath. Miami First scoped it fast, we prioritized the highest-ROI items, and they finished in 5 weeks. House sold in 6 days for over asking. Best money we spent on the sale.

Converted our detached garage into a mother-in-law suite for my dad. Full kitchenette, bathroom, closet, split HVAC. Juan mapped out the permits, engineering, and inspections upfront so we knew what we were walking into. Nothing surprised us at closeout. My dad has his independence back and we sleep better knowing he's on the property.

Bathroom remodeling questions, answered straight

The questions we hear most often during the first consult. If yours isn't here, Gil himself reads every form submission.

A standard 5×9 bathroom is out of service for two to three weeks. A primary suite bath runs four to six weeks. Containment goes up on demo day and the room stays out of use until the final walk-through — plan on using another bathroom for the whole stretch.

Yes — for any scope involving plumbing, electrical, or structural changes. That covers almost every gut remodel. Contractors who skip permits put the liability on you. An unpermitted bathroom shows up in title searches and can kill or discount a home sale. We pull every permit in Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach County.

Because we actually do it. A full bonded membrane takes two to three days and a building inspection before tile goes up. Most cheaper quotes skip the membrane and use a single coat of paint-on product on the pan only. In Miami's climate that's a three-year bathroom. Ours last twenty.

Yes. We assess drain depth and slope requirements during the walk-through. Cost and method are in the fixed price before demo — no surprises mid-project.

In a family home, keeping at least one tub typically supports resale value in Miami-Dade. In a condo or a primary suite where a tub would never be used, a curbless shower almost always adds more value. We give you our honest read based on your neighborhood and home type.

Yes. HOA documentation, building management approval, elevator scheduling, and noise-window compliance are all standard parts of our condo process. We work extensively in Miami Beach, Brickell, Edgewater, and Aventura buildings.
