Gold Hands offers bathroom remodeling in Palmetto Bay, FL: practical updates for bathrooms that leak, look dated or no longer fit the people using them. Send us photos and measurements by text or WhatsApp and we return a free, per-project estimate; anything that needs a permit is handled with our general contractor partner. We serve 33157 and the surrounding parts of Miami-Dade County.

Bathrooms around Palmetto Bay come in every age and style, from small hall baths with a tub and a single sink to primary bathrooms with a separate shower and a garden tub that mostly collects dust. The requests we hear most are tub-to-shower conversions, new tile throughout, replacing a dated vanity and top, and swapping old fixtures, lights and fans for quieter, brighter ones.

Start with a message to (786) 788-8714. A short video walking around the room works as well as photos, and WhatsApp handles both. Measure the room wall to wall and note where the toilet, sink and tub or shower sit. If you already picked tile or a vanity, send the product link or a photo of the label. We answer in English or Spanish, whichever you write in.

Bathroom remodels in South Dade homes

Palmetto Bay is green and suburban, with larger single-family lots and a mix of older ranch homes and houses rebuilt after Hurricane Andrew, many with solid concrete walls.

Homes built during and after the rebuild generally have block walls, poured slabs and plumbing that is easier to work with than in older parts of Miami-Dade. That helps keep bathroom remodels in Palmetto Bay straightforward. Most surprises we find are small: a slow leak at the tub spout, mildew behind a vanity, or a toilet flange that was never set at the right height after an earlier tile change.

If you are updating several rooms over time, ask us to plan the bathrooms together with any tile work elsewhere in the house so the flooring transitions line up. Many South Dade owners also replace old tile floors throughout. Coordinating those jobs avoids awkward height differences at the bathroom door and lets us order tile from the same batch for consistent color.

Bathroom remodeling on larger Palmetto Bay properties

Larger properties around Palmetto Bay often have more than the main bathrooms: a guest house bath, a pool or cabana bath with an exterior door, sometimes a bathroom in a barn or workshop. These rooms take a beating from wet feet, sun and humidity. We use slip-resistant floor tile, sealed grout, hardware that resists corrosion and a fan or window that actually clears moisture.

Many acreage properties run on septic systems and private wells rather than city sewer and water. Tell us if yours does. It affects what we suggest for toilets and water treatment, and it matters if the remodel adds a fixture, since adding bathrooms or fixtures on septic can involve health department review on top of the building permit. Our general contractor partner handles the permitted side.

How we run a Palmetto Bay bathroom remodel

  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 Village of Palmetto Bay building department (or Miami-Dade County for unincorporated Perrine addresses) 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.

What sets the timeline for your bathroom

Material lead times often decide the calendar more than the crew does. Stock tile and vanities can be picked up quickly, while special-order porcelain, natural stone, custom vanities and frameless glass have to be ordered and, for glass, measured only after the tile is finished. We build the schedule around what you choose and tell you up front which items could slow things down.

Bathroom Remodeling in Palmetto Bay — questions we get asked

Do you remodel guest house and pool bathrooms?

Yes. We remodel guest house, cabana and pool bathrooms, often in the same project as the main house. These rooms need slip-resistant tile, corrosion-resistant hardware and good ventilation. If the property is on septic or a private well, tell us, because adding fixtures can involve extra review; any permitted work goes through our general contractor partner.

Can you turn a tub into a walk-in shower for an older parent?

Yes, it is a request we hear often. We remove the tub, build a shower with a low curb or curbless entry where the floor allows, add a handheld sprayer, a seat and grab bars anchored into solid backing, and use slip-resistant floor tile. Tell us who will use the shower and any mobility needs so the heights and positions fit them.

How long will my bathroom remodel take?

It depends on scope, permits and materials. A cosmetic refresh on the existing layout is usually a matter of days. A shower rebuild takes longer because waterproofing, tile and glass each need their own time, and a full remodel with permits runs longer still, mostly because of permit review, inspections and special-order lead times. Your written schedule spells it out before work starts.

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.
