AfterFast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across The Hammocks
A full bathroom remodel in The Hammocks typically runs $9,000 – $28,000, with walk-in shower installations landing between $4,500 and $12,000. The number shifts based on whether you’re keeping the existing footprint, upgrading to impact-rated windows, or moving a drain line through Miami limestone. We’re Penhallow Remodeling, a General Contractor - The Hammocks team led by Trevor Nash, and we work here every week. Call (936) 259-2607 for a written price before any work starts.
This page is for homeowners in The Hammocks who want the real numbers, the permit realities, and the moisture details that decide whether a bathroom lasts five years or twenty. If you’ve been burned before, you’ll find the specifics here that other quotes leave out.
Why Penhallow Remodeling Is The Hammocks’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
Homeowners in The Hammocks call us because we write the price down before the first tile is pulled. Not a range, not a ballpark. A number you can hold us to, backed by the 365-Day Done Right Promise: if something we installed fails inside a year, we come back and fix it at no charge. That guarantee is in writing on every project, including Bathroom Remodeling work.
Our technicians are background-checked and arrive in uniform. A live person answers the phone 24/7, which matters when you’re coordinating a remodel around work, school, and the June-to-November rain season. We don’t use an answering service.
We know the difference between a 1986 CBS home off SW 104th Street and a post-Andrew rebuild on SW 142nd Avenue. That’s not trivia. It changes what we find behind the tile and what the inspector will require on the rough-in.
Walk In Shower in The Hammocks
A walk in shower in The Hammocks runs $4,500 – $12,000 depending on whether you’re converting a tub, enlarging the footprint, or installing a barrier-free pan that requires moving the drain. In this part of Miami-Dade, the job almost always involves coring through oolitic limestone, which adds a line item that contractors from farther north don’t always anticipate. We plan for it and put it in writing, so the number on day one is the number on the invoice.
Impact-Rated Openings
If your shower wall has an exterior window, the Miami-Dade HVHZ code requires an impact-rated assembly with a product approval from the NOA registry. We source the correct unit and file the approval documentation with the permit package, so the inspection clears the first time.
Waterproofing Behind the Tile
The high water table and humid air in The Hammocks mean a shower that looks fine on the surface can be rotting the studs behind it. We use a fluid-applied membrane over cement board substrate, which is the moisture-resistant layer behind the tile, and we show you the membrane before any tile goes up.
Bathroom Remodeling Companies in The Hammocks
Bathroom remodeling companies in The Hammocks vary widely in how they handle permits, waterproofing, and impact-rated window requirements. A full Bathroom Remodeling in The Hammocks project runs $9,000 – $28,000 with us, and that price includes the documentation trail that inspectors and insurers want to see. If a quote comes in significantly lower, ask what line items they’re leaving out. Usually it’s the NOA-registered window, the membrane behind the tile, or the coring for the new drain.
What a Compliant Quote Includes
Our written price covers the permit, the impact-rated opening if one exists, the waterproofing layer, and the inspection sign-off. We pull permits under the Kingswell standard and pass inspections before we call the job done.
Small Bathroom Remodels
A guest bath or hall bath in The Hammocks runs $5,000 – $12,000. That’s the vanity, the tile, the fixtures, and the shower pan. We keep the labor tight and the materials from recognized brands, so the price stays reasonable without cutting the waterproofing details that matter in this humidity.
Trusted Brands We Service in The Hammocks
We install Kohler and Moen fixtures, and we’re certified to service and replace them when a remodel calls for it. For cabinetry, we work with KraftMaid and Wellborn lines, and countertops come from Cambria, Silestone, or Caesarstone. These brands carry their own warranties alongside our 365-Day Done Right Promise. When a Kohler valve fails inside that year, we replace it and make it right, no charge. We keep common replacement parts stocked for The Hammocks customers, which shortens turnaround when a fixture issue comes up mid-project.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in The Hammocks Homes
- Missing or unregistered impact-rated window assemblies. Many older bathrooms on the exterior wall have single-pane glass that won’t pass HVHZ review. We swap in an NOA-listed unit and file the paperwork, which saves the homeowner a red-tag on inspection day.
- Auger refusal at 18 – 24 inches for new shower drains. The Miami limestone caprock under The Hammocks stops shallow augers fast. We core-drill or switch to engineered helical piers when the footing demands it, and we price that before digging starts.
- Moisture behind tile from missing pan liners. Some pre-Andrew builds went up without true waterproof membranes. In the flat, high-water-table terrain here, that means mold inside two rainy seasons. We tear out, rebuild the rough-in with a proper liner, and document every layer.
- Post-Andrew and pre-Andrew homes look identical but act differently. The tie-down hardware and roof-to-wall connections on a 1995 rebuild are not the same as a 1987 original. We inspect before we quote, because the opening schedule and rough-in path both hinge on what’s actually inside the wall.

What moves the number up or down: the size of the bathroom, whether you’re moving a drain, whether you need an impact-rated window or skylight assembly, and the cabinet and countertop lines you choose. A small hall bath with a stock vanity and a tub-to-shower conversion lands at the low end. A primary suite with a barrier-free shower, Cambria quartz top, and a new impact window lands higher.

FAQs About Bathroom Remodeling in The Hammocks
Yes. If the bathroom has an exterior window or skylight, Miami-Dade’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone code requires an impact-rated assembly with a product approval number from the NOA registry. We handle the approval documentation as part of the permit package. If you’re unsure whether your current window passes, call (936) 259-2607 and we’ll check it during the estimate.
Because The Hammocks sits on oolitic Miami limestone caprock that starts 18 – 24 inches below grade. Shallow augers refuse at that depth, which means the contractor either core-drills the footing or switches to helical piers. We account for this in our written quote before demolition starts, so you don’t get a change order mid-project. Call (936) 259-2607 for an exact number.
Get a written price that includes the coring, the impact-rated window, and the waterproofing membrane. Verbal estimates don’t survive contact with Miami limestone or an HVHZ inspector. Our written quote covers the known line items, and if we find something inside the wall that changes scope, we stop, show you photos, and get your sign-off before any additional work. Call (936) 259-2607 to start with a free estimate.
A compliant quote includes the NOA-registered impact window or skylight, the fluid-applied membrane behind the tile, the pan liner, the coring for any new drain, and the inspection sign-off. A cheap quote leaves those out and hopes the inspector doesn’t look too closely. Ours doesn’t. Call (936) 259-2607 and we’ll walk you through the line items.
Yes. When you file a claim after a storm, the insurer will ask whether the work met current codes. If the bathroom remodel included a documented impact-rated window and passed Miami-Dade inspection, the claim goes smoother. If it didn’t, the claim can get denied or reduced. We hand you the paperwork at the end of the job. Call (936) 259-2607 to get your project documented correctly.
