Bathroom Remodels — Tampa's Licensed GC

Bathroom remodel cost in Tampa and Hillsborough County ranges from $3,000 for a vanity, toilet, and flooring update to $18,000+ for a full gut with large-format natural stone tile, frameless glass, and a custom vanity. The most common project — a complete shower rebuild with new fixtures, vanity, and flooring — runs $7,000–$12,000. D&Co provides a written quote within 48 hours.

A vanity and fixture update takes 2–4 days. A full tile shower rebuild typically takes 7–12 days depending on tile size and scope. A complete gut-and-rebuild runs 2–4 weeks. We provide a project schedule in writing before we start so you know exactly when your bathroom will be out of service — and when it comes back.

It depends on scope. Cosmetic work (new tile, new vanity in same location, fixture swap) typically does not require a permit. Moving plumbing (relocating toilet, shower drain, or sink location), adding electrical circuits, or modifying structural walls requires a permit through Hillsborough County Development Services or City of Tampa Construction Services Center, depending on your address. As your licensed GC, we determine which office your project falls under and include permit cost in your written scope — you don't have to guess.

In Florida's high-humidity climate, we use either Schluter Kerdi membrane systems for shower pans and walls, Wedi board (foam core waterproof substrate), or liquid-applied membranes like RedGard or Mapelastic AquaDefense for more complex geometries. We specify the system in your written scope by product name. Any contractor who says "we just use cement board" on a shower rebuild in the Tampa Bay area is telling you something important about their work.

Yes — tub-to-shower conversion is one of our most common bathroom projects. We demo the tub and alcove, install a new shower pan with proper waterproofing, tile the walls and floor, add a frameless or semi-frameless glass enclosure, and update the plumbing to a shower valve and head. Cost typically runs $4,000–$9,000 depending on tile and glass selection. A permit is usually required because it changes the plumbing configuration.

Yes — we can work labor-only if you supply the materials. However, we purchase tile, fixtures, and setting materials at contractor and developer pricing, which is typically lower than what a homeowner pays retail. We're happy to share our distributor pricing so you can compare. If you choose to supply materials, we review selections before we start to ensure they're appropriate for the installation method and Florida climate conditions.
