Fast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across Wilton Manors
Bathroom remodeling in Wilton Manors runs $9,000-$28,000 for a full gut renovation, with most projects completing in four to eight weeks depending on permit scope and flood-zone compliance requirements. Because much of Wilton Manors sits in FEMA AE or AH flood zones along the Middle River, bathroom remodels here often require flood vents, elevated finished-floor thresholds, and sometimes stem-wall modifications - a compliance layer inland Broward bathrooms almost never see, and one that changes tile transition details at the door. Call (754) 254-7676 to schedule your free estimate; our dispatch and scheduling are coordinated from our Miami office, with crews serving Wilton Manors locally.
We’ve been quoting bathroom remodels with flat written prices since 2007 - over 4,000 projects, every one with a documented photo record and a signed scope before work starts. In Wilton Manors, that discipline matters more than most places. The 1950s-1970s concrete block and stucco ranch homes that dominate this island community hide original cast-iron drain lines, single-wythe block walls with no rebar, and electrical panels that haven’t been updated since the Carter administration. When you pull a permit in Wilton Manors, Broward County’s Florida Building Code wind provisions and FEMA flood-zone requirements kick in simultaneously. We price for that reality upfront, not as a surprise change order.
Why Rowan Construction Group Fort Lauderdale Is Wilton Manors’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
Our Bathroom Remodeling team knows the difference between a standard inland spec and a Wilton Manors canal-adjacent spec. The salt-laden air coming off the Middle River corrodes standard galvanized hinges, vanity hardware, and shower trim within a few seasons. We specify stainless steel and marine-grade finishes on every bathroom we touch near the canals, and we document that choice in the written quote so the customer knows what they’re paying for and why.
We answer calls with a live person 24/7, and our crews are background-checked and uniformed. Every visit generates a documented photo record - included as standard, not an upgrade - so a homeowner on a business trip can see exactly what we found behind their 1968 bathroom wall. Under Clause 1 of The Haven Standard, the price is written before anyone starts; under the 365-Day Done Right Promise, if it is not done right, we make it right, backed by a terms page you can read, not a handshake.
We also offer a Free Second Opinion on any written estimate. Bring a competitor’s quote and we’ll review it line by line at no charge. In a market where high property values and strong owner pride drive deep gut renovations rather than teardowns, that transparency is why Wilton Manors homeowners keep our number.
Our Bathroom Remodeling Services in Wilton Manors

Full Bathroom Remodeling
A full bathroom remodel in Wilton Manors starts with understanding what’s under the floor. On a 1968 CBS ranch near the Middle River, our crew opened a bathroom floor to find the original cast-iron drain line cracked and the single-wythe block wall had no rebar, so we re-rough-in the drain in PVC, sistered the load-bearing wall per the engineered plans, and set a marine-grade threshold detail to meet the FEMA AE flood-zone finished-floor requirement. The scope of work had a water-damage allowance that we reconciled with the homeowner before any tile went down, and the inspection sign-off cleared without a change order. That’s the standard we apply to every full remodel in Wilton Manors - engineered documentation, written allowance reconciliation, and no work proceeds on a change until the change order is signed.

Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling
Walk-in shower installation in Wilton Manors runs $4,500-$12,000, and it’s the most-requested bathroom upgrade we see in this market. The shift from tub to curbless or low-threshold walk-in requires careful attention to the flood-zone finished-floor elevation - a detail that inland contractors often miss. We specify waterproofing membranes with flood-drain integration, and we set the shower pan to maintain the required threshold height without creating a trip hazard. For canal-adjacent homes, we use marine-grade shower door hardware and sealed joint details that resist salt-air corrosion.

Tub-to-Shower Conversion
Tub-to-shower conversion in Wilton Manors costs $3,500-$10,000 and is particularly popular in the compact 1950s-1970s ranch bathrooms where a bulky tub dominates a 5×8 footprint. The conversion requires a permit in Broward County, and the inspection will check for flood-zone compliance if the finished floor changes elevation. We handle the permit pull and inspection scheduling as part of the flat written price, and we document the existing drain condition with photos before demo so the homeowner sees why we’re recommending PVC replacement over patching the original cast iron.

Frameless Glass Shower Enclosures
Frameless glass shower enclosures are a premium upgrade that we specify with marine-grade hardware in Wilton Manors canal homes. Standard chrome hinges and brackets show surface rust within 18 months of installation near the Middle River; we use 316 stainless steel or equivalent marine-grade finishes and document the specification in the written quote. The glass itself is 3/8″ or 1/2″ tempered, with polished edges and U-channel or clip mounting engineered to the tile substrate. In homes with the original single-wythe CBS block, we verify wall anchoring capacity before quoting - a step that prevents the “tile came loose with the door” callback we’ve seen from jobs that skipped structural verification.

Vanities, Tile & Fixtures
Vanity installation runs $800-$3,000 depending on plumbing rough-in modifications and countertop material. In Wilton Manors, we regularly specify solid-surface or quartz tops over laminate in canal-adjacent bathrooms - not for aesthetics alone, but because the humidity cycling in non-conditioned spaces degrades particleboard substrates faster here than in inland Broward. For tile, we use modified thin-set and sealed joint details on CBS block walls to prevent efflorescence, the white mineral bloom that pushes through unsealed grout in high-moisture, salt-air environments.

AfterTrusted Brands We Service in Wilton Manors
We source across fifty-plus vetted brands, and for Wilton Manors bathroom remodels we regularly specify Kohler and Toto fixtures for their corrosion-resistant finishes and available marine-grade hardware upgrades. For tile and stone, we work with distributors who stock Florida-appropriate moisture-resistant substrates and epoxies. We do not inflate material costs - the written quote reflects actual distributor pricing, and we document the brand, model number, and finish on every line item. If a homeowner wants to supply their own fixtures, we adjust the scope and warranty accordingly, in writing, before work starts.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Wilton Manors Homes

- Specifying standard galvanized fasteners and non-marine finishes in a canal-adjacent bathroom. Salt-laden air from the Middle River rusts hinges, vanity hardware, and shower trim within a few seasons. We see this on competitor jobs where the hardware looked fine at final walkthrough and showed orange streaks six months later. The price gap between standard spec and marine-grade spec is typically 8-12% on fixtures and hardware; the cost of premature replacement is 100%.
- Ignoring the flood-zone finished-floor elevation during the rough-in. Broward County inspectors flag non-compliant thresholds regularly in Wilton Manors AE zones, forcing a mid-project change order to rebuild the floor assembly after the concrete board is down. We verify FEMA zone and required elevation at the first site visit and engineer the threshold detail into the original scope.
- Treating original single-wythe CBS block as a standard substrate for tile without moisture management. In high-humidity canal homes, unsealed block wicks moisture inward, leading to efflorescence and tile debonding. We specify a sealed joint detail and modified thin-set rated for high-moisture substrates, documented in the written scope.
- Assuming original cast-iron drain lines are sound. In 1960s Wilton Manors bathrooms, we find cracked or scale-choked cast iron on roughly half of full remodels. We include a drain-line video inspection and replacement allowance in the written quote, with photos of the actual condition before the homeowner commits to the full scope.

Standard galvanized and chrome hardware corrodes within 18-36 months in canal-adjacent Wilton Manors homes; we specify 316 stainless steel or marine-grade finishes on all exposed metal.

Cracked cast-iron drain lines, single-wythe CBS block with no rebar, and outdated electrical panels are the three we encounter most.
