Gold Hands offers bathroom remodeling in Brickell, FL — tub-to-shower conversions, shower and floor tile, new vanities and fixtures, and the painting and drywall that finish the room. Each job is priced as a project, with a free estimate built from the photos and measurements you send by phone or WhatsApp. Our crew speaks English and Spanish.

In Brickell, a bathroom remodel usually means one of three jobs. The first is a cosmetic refresh: new vanity, toilet, mirror, lights and paint, keeping the layout as it is. The second is a shower rebuild, where the tub comes out and a tiled walk-in shower with a glass door goes in. The third is a full gut, down to the studs or block, which sometimes includes moving fixtures.

Tell us which of the three sounds closest and send photos to (786) 788-8714, by regular text or WhatsApp. Useful extras: the width and length of the room, the ceiling height, a photo of the shutoff valves under the sink, and pictures of any tile or vanity you already like. If you would rather talk it through in Spanish, just say so when you write.

Remodeling a bathroom in a Brickell high-rise

Brickell is Miami's densest cluster of glass-and-concrete towers, where homes sit many floors up behind management rules, with the 1920s houses of The Roads along its southern edge.

Owners in towers around The Roads, Brickell Key and the Financial District often want the same thing: replace the original builder bathroom, swap the tub for a glass-enclosed walk-in shower, and update the vanity and lighting to match the rest of the renovated unit. That is very doable in a high-rise as long as the layout mostly stays put, because the slab, the shared risers and the association rules make relocating drains costly and slow.

Before we quote, it helps to have your building's renovation rules or contractor packet. Those documents tell us the allowed hours, the insurance wording, flooring requirements and any deposits the association collects. From there, our estimate reflects how the building actually works. If the plan includes permitted work, our general contractor partner pulls the permit and we coordinate inspection access with management.

Bathroom remodeling scope in Brickell

Most remodels combine several of the items below, and we list each one in the written scope so you know exactly what is and is not part of the project.

Bathroom Remodeling: levels & budget

Updating rental bathrooms between tenants

Rental bathrooms often arrive with deferred problems: a running toilet, a loose vanity, soft drywall behind the tub, failed caulk and an exhaust fan that stopped working long ago. Fixing those during a remodel is simpler than chasing them one service call at a time. Our estimate lists the repairs separately from the upgrades, so you can choose what to do now and what can wait.

If the property is in a condo building, the association rules apply to you as the owner, including approval forms and insurance certificates. We prepare our part of that paperwork. For single-family rentals, we coordinate access with you or your property manager, use a lockbox if you have one, and leave the unit secured and clean at the end of every workday.

Five steps from estimate to walkthrough

  1. Estimate from photos: you text or WhatsApp photos and rough measurements to (786) 788-8714. We ask follow-up questions if needed and send a free, per-project estimate with the main options laid out.
  2. Written scope and schedule: once you approve, we put the scope in writing (what gets removed, what gets installed, who supplies which materials) and agree on a start date that fits your household.
  3. Permits where required: if the work moves plumbing, adds circuits or changes the layout, the permit is pulled by our general contractor partner with the City of Miami building department before that part of the work begins.
  4. The work: demolition, a check of what the walls reveal, waterproofing, tile, fixtures and finishes, in that order. We protect floors along the path, keep dust contained and clean up at the end of each day.
  5. Final walkthrough: we test every fixture, the drain and the fan with you, fix anything on the punch list, and send a photo report of the finished bathroom and of what is behind the walls.

Timing a bathroom remodel

If you live in a condo, the association adds its own steps before work can start: an application, a certificate of insurance, sometimes a board or management review, and a reserved service elevator for demolition day. Permit review by the local building department adds time to any job that changes plumbing, wiring or layout. We start those requests early so the bathroom is not left sitting half-finished.

Bathroom Remodeling in Brickell — questions we get asked

I own a rental. Can you work between tenants?

Yes. Send the move-out date, photos and what you want done, and we plan materials ahead so the bathroom can be ready for the next tenant. Durable, easy-to-replace finishes cut down on future service calls. If a tenant is still living there, give notice as your lease and local rules require, and we schedule the work around them.

Which bathroom fixtures hold up near the beach?

Salt air is hard on cheap chrome and plain steel. Near the water we suggest solid brass valves and faucets with durable finishes, stainless towel bars and fasteners, and fans with corrosion-resistant housings. Pair that with a fan vented outdoors and mildew-resistant grout, and the bathroom will age much better. We can review the products you are considering before you order.

Do you speak Spanish?

Yes. Spanish-speaking staff can handle the whole project, from reviewing your photos and explaining the estimate to talking with family members during the work. Write to (786) 788-8714 by text or WhatsApp in whichever language you prefer, and tell us if someone in the household is more comfortable in Spanish so we keep them in the loop.

Who buys the tile, vanity and fixtures?

Either way works. Many customers choose and buy their own tile, vanity and faucets, and we tell them exactly what quantities and extra parts to order. Others prefer that we source standard materials as part of the project. Special-order tile, stone tops and custom glass have lead times, so we confirm availability before setting the start date.

Does hurricane season affect my remodel?

It can. Hurricane season runs June 1 through November 30. If a storm threatens, we secure the work area and pause, and we avoid leaving you without a working bathroom right before a forecast storm. Afterward, material deliveries and inspections may slow down across South Florida. We build some room into the schedule and keep you informed by text.
