Palm Beach Gardens bathrooms

Primary suites built for the way Gardens homeowners live

In Palm Beach Gardens, the bathroom we're usually asked to rebuild is the primary suite in a golf or gated community home. It tends to have a large footprint, a garden tub and a shower that's too small for it. We turn that space into a walk-in spa shower with frameless glass, dual heads, a bench and a double vanity with lit mirrors. It's the same layout we built in nearby Jupiter Farms, shown below.

What a Palm Beach Gardens bathroom remodel actually involves

HOA approval comes first

Nearly every Gardens community has its own contractor rules: registration, insurance certificates, gate passes, permitted work hours, dumpster placement and sometimes architectural review. We set this up before we schedule demolition, so the crew gets in on day one.

The new $7,500 permit exemption rarely applies

Florida HB 803 took effect July 1, 2026. It lets single-family owners skip a building permit for some work valued under $7,500, but it does not cover plumbing, electrical, structural, mechanical or gas work, it does not apply in flood hazard areas, and a project cannot be split up to stay under the limit. A real remodel moves drains, valves or wiring, so plan on a permit. We file it and close it out.

Garden tub out, spa shower in

Removing a built-in garden tub frees up enough floor for a walk-in shower big enough for two heads and a bench. We reroute supply and drain lines, build a fully waterproofed shower system, and finish with large-format porcelain, a pebble or mosaic floor and frameless glass.

Finishes that handle humidity

Porcelain tile, quartz vanity tops and sealed grout stand up to South Florida humidity far better than natural marble in a busy shower. We'll show you which finishes look like stone without the upkeep.

A primary bath close to home

Built the way we'd build our own

Waterproofing and prep first

The hidden work, like waterproofing, blocking and level floors, gets done right before anything pretty goes in.

A scope, not an allowance

Your estimate lists the work line by line, so the price does not drift.

One accountable crew

Same team from demo to walkthrough, with the owner checking the work.

Real prices, published

Typical ranges are on this page, and our case studies show real project totals.

How a remodel runs, start to finish

  1. Home visit and measurement. Colby walks the bathroom, checks the subfloor, plumbing and venting, and listens to how you use the room.
  2. Local rules check. We confirm what Palm Beach Gardens and your HOA or condo association require before anything is designed.
  3. Written scope and fixed estimate. Every line item, finish allowance and exclusion in writing, so the price does not drift.
  4. Selections. Tile, porcelain, vanity, quartz, fixtures, glass and lighting, chosen together with samples.
  5. Permits and approvals. We file the building permit and assemble any association packet with insurance certificates.
  6. Protected demolition. Floors and halls covered, dust contained, debris hauled the same day.
  7. Rough-in, waterproofing and inspections. New drains and valves, a fully waterproofed shower system, then inspections before tile goes up.
  8. Tile, glass, finish and final walkthrough. We punch-list the room with you and close the permit.

Palm Beach Gardens bathroom remodeling questions

Do you work in PGA National, BallenIsles and Mirasol?

Yes. We register with the community, provide insurance certificates and follow its contractor hours and rules.

What does a luxury primary bathroom cost in Palm Beach Gardens?

A primary bath remodel typically runs $23,000 to $45,000. A full luxury primary suite with layout changes, custom glass and premium finishes usually starts around $49,500 and can pass $99,000.

How much does a bathroom remodel cost?

Most of our bathroom projects run $6,500 to $14,000 for a powder room, $19,500 to $39,500 for a guest bath with a tub-to-shower conversion, $23,000 to $45,000 for a primary bath, and $49,500 to $99,000+ for a luxury primary suite. A recent full-gut bathroom we finished in Delray Beach came in at $20,000.

Did Florida's new law remove the permit requirement for bathrooms?

No. Florida HB 803, effective July 1, 2026, exempts some single-family work valued under $7,500 from a building permit, but it does not cover plumbing, electrical, structural, mechanical or gas work, and it does not apply in flood hazard areas. A real bathroom remodel moves drains, valves or wiring, so it still needs a permit.

Can you design a bathroom for aging in place?

Yes. We add blocking for grab bars during framing, build curbless or low-threshold showers, add benches and handheld wands, and widen doorways where the wall allows. See aging-in-place remodeling.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. Colby Matheny holds Florida Certified Building Contractor license CBC1269429, and we provide insurance certificates to condo associations and HOAs on request.
