East Perrine isn’t just another pin on our map. It’s unincorporated Miami-Dade County, which means every permit runs through Miami-Dade’s Building Department and every fixture, membrane, and adhesive must carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance - not just Florida statewide approval. We’ve seen out-of-area crews learn that lesson the hard way. You won’t.
Why Groundwork Construction Co. of South Florida Is East Perrine’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
We’ve built bathrooms in the CBS homes along Old Cutler Road, in the post-Andrew rebuilds near Caribbean Boulevard, and in the mid-century ranches tucked between them. That split housing stock means we’ve replaced original 1960s cast-iron drains and installed modern Kohler walk-in showers in homes built thirty years apart - sometimes on the same block.
Our crews know the high water table that hits from June through October. We’ve rerouted vent stacks above-grade when digging proved impossible. We’ve specified NOA-approved waterproofing membranes that hold up to East Perrine’s year-round humidity. That local fluency saves you re-inspections and change orders.
Raymond Estevez, who leads our company, insists that every East Perrine homeowner gets the same material choice we’d want ourselves: Silestone, Caesarstone, or Kohler fixtures - you pick the tier, we handle the build. No proprietary lock-ins. No “this is what we stock” excuses.
One contractor, every phase. From your bathroom remodel to your roofline, you deal with one accountable team. That’s the difference between a single-source contractor and the chaos of juggling separate trades.
Our Bathroom Remodeling Services in East Perrine
Full Bathroom Remodeling
A full bathroom remodel in East Perrine runs $9,000-$28,000, depending on whether we’re working inside a 1960s CBS shell with original plumbing or a post-Andrew rebuild with modern rough-ins. We handle demolition, plumbing reroutes, waterproofing, tile, fixtures, and final inspection. Every product we specify carries Miami-Dade NOA approval before it enters your home.
Walk-In Shower Installation
Walk-in shower installation in East Perrine costs $4,500-$12,000. In older homes with slab foundations and corroded cast-iron drains, we often route new venting above-grade to avoid digging into the high water table. We install NOA-approved Kohler and Moen shower systems with proper waterproofing behind the tile - the kind that survives East Perrine’s humidity without breeding mold behind your CBS walls.
Tub-to-Shower Conversion
Converting a tub to a shower in East Perrine runs $3,500-$10,000. Many homeowners in the 33157 area are done with aging fiberglass surrounds and want a tiled walk-in with a frameless glass enclosure. We handle the plumbing conversion, wall prep, and Miami-Dade permitting. If your old tub shares a wall with a bedroom, we’ll spec sound-dampening backer board - a detail that matters in these older, thinner CBS walls.
Vanities, Tile & Fixtures
Bathroom vanity installation in East Perrine costs $800-$3,000 for the unit and install, not including plumbing modifications. We work with Cambria, Silestone, and Caesarstone for vanity tops - three tiers of engineered quartz that give you real choice. For tile, we specify NOA-approved thinset and waterproofing systems; we’ve seen too many local jobs fail because a crew used standard Florida-approved membrane that couldn’t pass Miami-Dade’s flood testing.

Trusted Brands We Service in East Perrine
We don’t stock one proprietary line and push it on every homeowner. Our relationships with 50+ industry brands mean you choose what fits your budget and taste. In East Perrine bathrooms, we regularly install Kohler and Moen fixtures, Silestone and Caesarstone vanity surfaces, and waterproofing systems from manufacturers who’ve earned Miami-Dade NOA approval. Because we maintain those supplier relationships locally, replacement parts arrive fast - no six-week backorders that stall your project mid-stream.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in East Perrine Homes
- NOA failures on out-of-state fixtures. Contractors who work primarily in Broward or outside Miami-Dade often assume Florida product approval is enough. It’s not. We’ve replaced entire shower valve assemblies mid-project because the original spec lacked Miami-Dade’s NOA stamp.
- Mold and efflorescence behind failed waterproofing. East Perrine’s humidity doesn’t take a season off. Standard waterproofing that passes in drier climates fails here within two years. We see it on CBS walls where moisture wicks through cracked stucco and finds the gap behind tile.
- Corroded cast-iron drains in pre-Andrew homes. Working on a 1960s CBS home on Old Cutler Road, we opened a wall and found the original cast-iron tub’s drain stack had corroded beyond repair. With the high water table from the nearby canal, we couldn’t dig for a traditional re-pipe - so we rerouted the vent above-grade and installed a NOA-approved Kohler walk-in shower kit, saving the homeowner from a $10,000+ foundation dig.
- Below-grade drain work stalled by seasonal water table. From June through October, the southern Miami-Dade basin holds water close to the surface. Any plan that requires cutting into the slab for drain relocation needs a contingency, or it sits until November.
Pricing for Bathroom Remodeling in East Perrine, FL
Here’s what bathroom remodeling costs in the East Perrine market:
| Service | Price Range in East Perrine |
|---|---|
| Bathroom Remodel (full) | $9,000-$28,000 |
| Walk-In Shower Installation | $4,500-$12,000 |
| Bathroom Vanity Installation | $800-$3,000 |
Your final price depends on three factors: the age of your plumbing rough-in, whether we need to reroute drains above-grade to avoid the water table, and your material selections. A 1960s CBS home with original cast-iron plumbing costs more to reconfigure than a post-1992 build with PVC. We price this upfront, not as a surprise mid-project. Every estimate is free and written - call (844) 665-0162 to schedule.

FAQs - Bathroom Remodeling in East Perrine
Because East Perrine is unincorporated Miami-Dade County, the local Building Department enforces the Notice of Acceptance product-approval list independently of Florida’s statewide database. Fixtures, membranes, and adhesives must carry Miami-Dade’s NOA stamp, not just Florida approval. We verify every product before it goes on your job. Call (844) 665-0162 and we’ll walk you through the NOA list for your specific project.
Yes, and we do it regularly in East Perrine. The challenge is usually the drain location, not the slab itself. When the original cast-iron drain is corroded or poorly positioned, we often reroute venting above-grade rather than dig into the high water table. That keeps your project moving and avoids the seasonal delays that hit from June through October.
We replace or reroute it. In East Perrine’s pre-Andrew homes, cast-iron drains are typically at end-of-life. If the pipe is accessible, we cut in PVC and transition with a no-hub coupling. If the run is buried below slab and the water table is high, we design an above-grade vent solution and spec a walk-in shower that doesn’t require the old drain path. Call (844) 665-0162 for a free inspection - we’ll show you both options.
Not for a typical bathroom replacement unless it’s in a wind-borne debris zone and serves as an egress opening. Most interior bathrooms in East Perrine don’t require impact-rated glazing. We check your specific exposure and code cycle during permitting. If you do need it, we source from our Andersen, Pella, or CGI lines - all with NOA approval for Miami-Dade.
We can match or upgrade it. Post-Andrew construction in East Perrine used specific tile formats and installation methods that differ from the 1960s stock. We carry sample boards from current lines and can source discontinued patterns through our supplier network when a seamless match matters. If you’re renovating one bathroom and want visual continuity with the rest of the house, we’ll find the closest match or recommend a deliberate contrast that looks intentional, not patched.
