AfterFast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across Sunrise
Bathroom remodeling in Sunrise runs $9,000-$28,000 for a full renovation, with most walk-in shower conversions and tub-to-shower projects falling between $3,500 and $12,000 depending on what we find once the walls open. We coordinate dispatch from our Miami office and keep crews working regularly in western Broward, including the Sunrise Golf Village, Welleby, and Sawgrass Estates areas. Call (754) 714-6540 to schedule your free written estimate - we deliver the full price before anyone picks up a tool.
Sunrise’s homes were built in concentrated waves from the late 1960s through the early 1990s, almost entirely before Florida’s post-Hurricane Andrew building code overhaul. That timing matters. When our Bathroom Remodeling crew pulls a permit for your project, Broward County requires bringing the opened structure into compliance with current Florida Building Code - wind-mitigation standards, proper framing strapping, and impact-rated openings where walls are modified. We have been working in this specific environment since 2007, and we know how to price and document the scope before demolition starts.
Why Rowan Construction Group Pompano Beach Is Sunrise’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
We have delivered more than 4,000 projects across South Florida since our founding in 2007, and a significant portion of that work has been in Sunrise’s pre-1992 housing stock. Our customers here leave reviews that mention the same thing repeatedly: the written price held, the photo record showed everything, and the crew explained what they found before charging for it. We do not ask for trust; we document the work.
Response time to Sunrise is typically same-week scheduling for estimates, with crews already rotating through western Broward subdivisions near the C-11 Canal and Sunrise Lakes corridors. Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and arrive with a documented photo record as standard - not an upgrade.
What separates us in this market is the discipline Haven acquired Rowan for: no change proceeds without a signed change order. In a city where opening a bathroom wall routinely exposes 50-year-old galvanized plumbing and unstrapped framing, that administrative rigor is what keeps projects within a few percent of the agreed price instead of doubling.
Our Bathroom Remodeling Services in Sunrise
Full Bathroom Remodeling
A full bathroom remodel in Sunrise means working within concrete block (CBS) walls that are durable but unforgiving - plumbing rough-in changes require core drilling or chase routing, and any wall movement triggers the permit-driven code upgrades that are standard here. We price these projects at $9,000-$28,000, with the final number depending on fixture selections from our fifty-plus vetted brands and what the demolition reveals. On a 1978 CBS tract home in the Sunrise Golf Village area off Sunset Strip, our crew opened a hall bathroom to convert the tub to a walk-in shower and found the original framing around the wet wall had no strapping and a galvanized supply line that had been weeping into the subfloor for years - soft plywood under the old tub. We wrote a change order for the framing repair, impact-rated window in that small bath wall, and new rough-in before any tile went back, priced and approved in writing, then the shower passed inspection sign-off with the pan and waterproofing verified before we closed it.
Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling
Walk-in shower installation in Sunrise runs $4,500-$12,000 and represents the majority of our bathroom work in the city. Homeowners in Welleby and Sawgrass Estates are replacing original fiberglass tub-shower combos with curbless or low-threshold walk-in units, often for aging-in-place or resale preparation. The critical detail in these 1970s-1990s homes is the subfloor condition: decades of moisture penetration through failed original waterproofing frequently rot the plywood beneath the visible tile. We inspect with a moisture meter before quoting and write the potential subfloor repair into the contract as a line-item allowance, so the price moves only if the condition is found - and only after you approve the change order in writing.
Tub-to-Shower Conversion
Tub-to-shower conversion in Sunrise costs $3,500-$10,000 and is our most common request from homeowners in the Sunrise Lakes and Nob Hill areas. The original garden tubs in these 1980s tract homes are oversized, poorly insulated, and often positioned beneath windows that must be upgraded to impact-rated units when the wall is opened for permit. We handle the window specification and installation as part of the coordinated scope, sourcing from our vetted brand list rather than marking up a third-party subcontractor. The shallow water table in western Sunrise - typically 18 to 36 inches below grade - rarely affects a tub-to-shower conversion directly, but any associated slab work for drain relocation can require dewatering that out-of-area subs often omit from their bids.
Vanities, Tile & Fixtures
Vanity installation runs $800-$3,000 in Sunrise, with tile and fixture selections drawn from our fifty-plus vetted brands including Kohler and Toto fixtures. In CBS construction, vanity replacement is straightforward until it is not: wall-mounted vanities require proper blocking in the block wall, and original installations often used adhesive anchors that crumble when disturbed. We inspect the wall cavity with a borescope when necessary and specify the mounting method in the written quote. For tile, we specify a bonded waterproof membrane - the Schluter-Kerdi or equivalent - on every shower project, because the original construction in these homes used face-applied tile with no independent waterproofing layer, which is why so many fail.

AfterTrusted Brands We Service in Sunrise
We maintain sourcing relationships with more than fifty vetted material brands, and we stock or rapid-source locally for Sunrise projects through our Miami coordination office. For bathroom work, we regularly specify Kohler and Toto fixtures, Cambria and Caesarstone countertops, and KraftMaid and Wellborn vanities - brands we can quote at honest numbers because we buy through established distribution, not retail. For fencing and outdoor work on the same property, we also source ViewLux and Barrette aluminum systems and Master Halco vinyl products. The written quote lists every brand by name with model numbers where applicable, so you can compare spec-for-spec against any competitor’s estimate. Our Free Second Opinion offer applies here: bring us any written estimate and we will review it line by line at no charge.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Sunrise Homes
- Original non-strapped framing and degraded galvanized plumbing. Opening a 1970s-1990s CBS bathroom almost always exposes wall framing with no hurricane strapping and supply lines that have reached end of life. The Broward County permit for your remodel requires bringing this to current Florida Building Code - a scope increase the original quote from an out-of-area contractor never carried.
- Failed waterproofing with concealed subfloor rot. The original shower pan or tub surround in these homes used face-applied tile with no bonded membrane. Decades of moisture have rotted the plywood and wall board behind the visible surface. The demolition is just the start of the repair, and we document the extent with photos before pricing the fix.
- Surprise groundwater during any slab or in-ground work. Contractors working in western Sunrise subdivisions near the C-11 Canal routinely hit standing groundwater within two feet of breaking ground. A simple footer pour that would be straightforward in Plantation or Coral Springs can require a submersible pump running the entire pour day. We include this contingency in our written quote when the scope involves slab modification.
- Impact-rated window upgrades triggered by wall opening. Many Sunrise bathrooms, especially in 1980s construction, have windows in the wet wall that must be upgraded to Miami-Dade/Broward impact-resistant units when the permit is pulled. We specify the window in the original quote rather than discovering it mid-project.
Pricing for Bathroom Remodeling in Sunrise, FL
We publish our numbers because we stand behind them. Every project is quoted with a flat written price and written scope before work begins - Clause 1 of The Haven Standard.
| Service | Price Range in Sunrise |
|---|---|
| Bathroom Remodel | $9,000-$28,000 |

What moves the number within these ranges: fixture brand and grade, tile material and pattern complexity, whether the subfloor requires replacement, and the extent of code-triggered upgrades once walls open. We do not quote low and change-order high. Every potential variable is written into the contract as an allowance or contingency with a trigger price, and no work proceeds on a change until the change order is signed. That discipline has kept our projects within a few percent of the agreed cost across 4,000-plus jobs. Call (754) 714-6540 for your free written estimate.

FAQs - Bathroom Remodeling in Sunrise
Because Sunrise’s tract housing went up between the late 1960s and early 1990s, a bathroom remodel here almost always exposes the original non-code-compliant condition - undersized or unstrapped wall framing and 50-year-old branch wiring - the moment the tub and vanity come out, and a Broward County permit for the remodel re-triggers current Florida Building Code compliance. A bathroom gut in a neighboring city’s newer stock doesn’t automatically carry that added scope. We price this into our written quote from the start rather than discovering it mid-project. Call (754) 714-6540 for an exact quote - estimates are free.
We find failed waterproofing behind the tile, soft subfloor under the tub, galvanized supply lines with pinhole corrosion, and wall framing with no hurricane strapping. The photo record we provide documents every finding before we price the repair. No surprise proceeds without a signed change order. Call (754) 714-6540 for an exact quote - estimates are free.
It can, if the scope involves slab work for drain relocation or in-ground rough-in. Sunrise sits at the western edge of Broward County adjacent to the Everglades drainage system, with a water table often 18 to 36 inches below grade. Any excavation deeper than that may require active dewatering with a submersible pump for the duration of the pour or rough-in. We include this contingency in our written quote when applicable; out-of-area subs often omit it and issue a surprise change order. Call (754) 714-6540 for an exact quote - estimates are free.
We inspect before we quote, write allowances for probable conditions into the contract, and require a signed change order before any additional work proceeds. The 365-Day Done Right Promise backs every project: if it is not done right, Rowan makes it right, backed by The Haven Standard, not a handshake. Our documented photo record on every visit gives you evidence of what was found and what was done. Call (754) 714-6540 for an exact quote - estimates are free.
Yes. Tub-to-shower conversion is one of our most common projects in Sunrise, typically running $3,500-$10,000. The original garden tubs in 1980s tract homes are removed, the drain relocated to center or linear as specified, and the surround built with a bonded waterproof membrane and tile of your choice. We also coordinate the impact-rated window upgrade that the permit typically triggers when the wall is opened. Call (754) 714-6540 for an exact quote - estimates are free.
