Fast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across West Perrine
A full bathroom remodel in West Perrine runs $9,000 – $28,000 depending on the scope, fixture line, and how much below-grade plumbing work the soil demands. The answer changes fast when you’re cutting a shower drain into Miami Limestone, which sits just inches to a couple feet under much of West Perrine. We price that before we start, in writing. Call (936) 259-2607 for a free estimate, and we’ll walk the space with you before a single number is committed to paper.
West Perrine is unincorporated Miami-Dade. That means permits run through the county, not a city hall, and any window or door on a bathroom remodel carries a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance (NOA) requirement. We know that before the first tile comes up. Trevor Nash runs our crews on the principle that you should hear the real number and the real timeline before demo day, never after.
Why Penhallow Remodeling Is West Perrine’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
We show up when we say we will. That sounds basic, but in West Perrine, where mixed housing stock means one block has a 1958 CBS ranch and the next has a 1995 post-Andrew rebuild, the contractor who knows both structures is the one who doesn’t stall at inspection. Our crews have worked both, sometimes on the same street, and we understand how Miami-Dade’s HVHZ codes affect everything from a shower valve rough-in to a replacement window.
Every Penhallow job includes a written price before work starts and a written 365-Day Done Right Promise. If the shower pan leaks or the vanity pulls from the wall inside that year, we return and fix it at no charge. No service call fee, no re-inspection fee. That promise is in writing on every contract we sign in West Perrine.
Our technicians are background-checked and arrive in uniform. You know who’s walking into your home. And when you call, a live person answers, 24/7, not a voicemail maze. That matters at 7 a.m. when you’re staring at a cracked shower base and need a real answer before work.
Shower Remodel in West Perrine
A shower remodel in West Perrine usually runs $3,000 – $8,500 for a replacement, or $4,500 – $12,000 for a full walk-in shower installation with new pan, valve, tile, and glass. The lower end covers a straightforward shower replacement with existing plumbing locations. The upper end reflects what happens when we have to move a drain line through oolite limestone, add blocking for a frameless enclosure, or bring a jalousie window up to current NOA-listed impact standards.
Existing Shower vs. Relocated Drain
If the shower footprint stays where it was built, the job moves faster and costs less. If we’re moving the drain across the slab, we plan for possible rock cutting and dewatering before we open the floor. You’ll see that line item in your written quote, not as a surprise change order later.
Frameless Glass and Tile Work
Frameless glass enclosures read clean and modern, but they demand precise anchoring in CBS block or post-Andrew framing. We set the channel with the right fasteners for the substrate, not whatever was rolling around in the truck. Tile work gets a cement board substrate, the moisture-resistant layer behind the finish, installed to Miami-Dade’s wet-area standards.
Tub to Shower Conversion in West Perrine
A tub to shower conversion in West Perrine typically costs $3,500 – $10,000. That covers removing the old tub, converting the drain from tub size to shower size, waterproofing, setting a new shower pan, and installing the valve, surround, and door or curtain rod. In older West Perrine slabs, the drain conversion often hits oolite limestone, and the water table can sit 18 – 24 inches below grade, which means we plan for dewatering and rock cutting before we quote.
Drain Conversion in Shallow Limestone
West Perrine’s soil is not really soil. Porous Miami Limestone lies close to the surface across much of the community, and the seasonal water table is high. Converting a 1.5-inch tub drain to a 2-inch shower drain often means cutting deeper, which means diamond blades and pumps. We build that possibility into the quote line-item so it’s not a surprise.
Grab Bars, Benches, and Aging in Place
Many West Perrine homeowners converting a tub want a low-threshold shower and blocking behind the walls for grab bars later. We add 2x blocking at the right heights during the rough-in. It costs a little now and saves opening the wall again when mobility needs change.
Trusted Brands We Service in West Perrine
We spec materials from brands that stand behind their products, because our 365-Day Done Right Promise works better when the pan, valve, and glass aren’t the weak link. Kohler and Moen fixtures, Cambria and Silestone quartz, KraftMaid cabinetry. The brands you know, installed under warranty, installed with local permitting in mind. For West Perrine specifically, we keep the NOA paperwork straight on any window or door we touch, so inspection doesn’t stall waiting on product approval. We don’t stock your tile, but we order early enough that the job doesn’t sit idle waiting on a backordered valve.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in West Perrine Homes
- Miami-Dade NOA rejection on a window or door. A homeowner orders a nice impact window online, and the county product control rejects it because it isn’t on the Miami-Dade NOA list. The remodel stops until a listed product replaces it. We check approvals before we order.
- Shallow limestone hitting the drain cut. A toilet rough-in or shower drain conversion digs into oolite rock at 8 – 12 inches. Contractors unfamiliar with West Perrine quote the soil they know from Broward and then hand over a change order for jackhammering. We don’t.
- Pre-Andrew framing and lintels above openings. Homes built before 1992 sometimes have undersized roof-to-wall connections and unreinforced lintels. A vanity swap won’t surface it, but a larger opening or any structural touch will. We check before we quote the scope.
- Original jalousie windows in wet walls. Those single-pane jalousies in the shower wall leak and fail code. Swapping to a NOA-listed impact unit adds cost but ends the water intrusion. It’s usually the difference between a bathroom that lasts and one that rots from the inside.

West Perrine sits on Miami Limestone with a water table that can sit 18 – 24 inches below grade. Cutting a new shower drain or toilet rough-in often hits that rock or water on the same day.

Yes, and we do it regularly. On a 1958 CBS ranch off SW 168th Street near West Perrine Park, we converted a hall bath tub to a shower, hit oolite limestone about 8 inches down, dewatered the trench, and set a new Kohler pan with a Moen valve. The original jalousie window came out for a NOA-listed impact unit, and county inspection passed first try. Call (936) 259-2607 for a quote on your home.
