We’re Mason Remodeling Co Fort Lauderdale, and we’ve spent years working in the condominiums and single-family homes that make up this city. The concrete-block construction, the humidity, the water table, the HOA rules in places like East Gate and Oriole Estates – we understand how those factors shape a bathroom remodel here. That local knowledge changes how we waterproof, how we schedule, and how we price.

Small Bathroom Remodel in Lauderdale Lakes
A Small Bathroom Remodel in Lauderdale Lakes means different things depending on whether you’re in a 1972 concrete-block house in East Gate or a condo unit off State Road 7. For most of our customers here, it means replacing the tub or shower, swapping the vanity, updating the toilet, and addressing the moisture issues that come with a high water table and humid summers. Small bathroom remodels in Lauderdale Lakes run $5,000 – $12,000.
What Gets Replaced First
The order we recommend for most Lauderdale Lakes homes: waterproofing and plumbing first, then fixtures, then finishes. Skipping the moisture barrier under new tile is the most expensive mistake we see. We install an engineered moisture barrier as a matter of course here, because water pushing up from below can wick through concrete block walls and rot subfloors.
Builder-Grade Upgrades That Pay Off
Many Lauderdale Lakes homes still have the original builder-basic bath fixtures. A new vanity from KraftMaid or Wellborn, paired with a Kohler or Moen faucet, changes the feel of the room without touching the footprint. These upgrades run $800 – $3,000 for a vanity install and are the most common first project we handle in the city’s older housing stock.
Shower Remodel in Lauderdale Lakes
A Shower Remodel in Lauderdale Lakes generally runs $3,000 – $8,500 for a full replacement, and $3,500 – $10,000 if you’re converting a tub to a walk-in shower. The humidity here means cement board and proper waterproofing are non-negotiable. Using standard drywall in a wet area becomes a mold farm within two years in this climate.
Walk-In Showers and Tub-to-Shower Conversions
Many older Lauderdale Lakes homeowners make the switch to a walk-in shower for easier access. Tub-to-shower conversions run $3,500 – $10,000 and involve tearing out the old tub, re-doing the drain, rough-in valves, and waterproofing before tile goes up. We frequently use a Schluter strip – the metal trim that seals the edge where tile meets flooring – to keep moisture from creeping behind the new tile.
Frameless Glass and Finishes
Frameless glass enclosures add $1,500 – $3,000 on top of the shower install, depending on size. Brands like Mr-Glass give Lauderdale Lakes homeowners a clean, modern look that holds up to the mineral-heavy South Florida water. We handle the full scope from rough-in to final seals.
Trusted Brands We Service in Lauderdale Lakes
Our crews work with specification-grade materials across cabinetry, surfaces, and fixtures. For Lauderdale Lakes jobs, we regularly install KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinetry, Cambria and Silestone countertops, and Kohler, Moen, and Toto fixtures. We also service and install Mr-Glass and ES Windows products when a bathroom remodel extends into glass enclosures or adjacent window work. Because we stock common parts for Lauderdale Lakes customers, turnaround on replacements is faster than ordering from out of town.

AfterCommon Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Lauderdale Lakes Homes
- Rotten subfloors around tubs and toilets. Builder-basic bathrooms from the 1970s and 1980s are failing all at once. We often find rot only when a tile pops and the homeowner sees what’s underneath.
- Missing or failed moisture barriers. The high water table in Lauderdale Lakes means water wicks up through concrete slabs. Without an engineered barrier under new tile, that moisture rots framing and feeds mold.
- Standard drywall in wet areas. Cheaper up front, but in this humidity it becomes a mold farm within two years. Cement board is the only thing we’ll put behind shower tile.
- DIY permit bypasses. Skipping a permit and not calling 811 leads to cut plumbing lines and no inspection sign-off. When the condo sells, that unpermitted work comes back to bite you.

FAQs About Bathroom Remodeling in Lauderdale Lakes
Yes, if you’re moving plumbing, changing the electrical, or altering the layout. Cosmetic swaps like a new vanity or toilet don’t require one. We pull permits on every job that needs them, and we handle the inspections. Call (754) 354-3720 if you’re unsure whether your project qualifies.
At minimum, you should expect an engineered moisture barrier under new tile, cement board behind all shower walls, and a rubber membrane or equivalent under any floor that touches plumbing. The high water table in Lauderdale Lakes makes this non-optional. We do this on every job, no exceptions.
You can move plumbing, but in concrete-block construction it’s more involved than in a wood-frame house. Moving a drain means cutting into the slab, which adds cost and time. We’ll walk you through what’s possible and what makes sense before you commit to a layout change. Estimates are free.
Most small bathroom remodels in Lauderdale Lakes take two to three weeks. If we’re addressing subfloor rot or re-doing plumbing rough-ins, add a few days. We give a written timeline with your written price, and we hold to both.
Rotten subfloor around the toilet or tub. The combination of high humidity and aging waterproofing means water has often been seeping for years without visible signs. We just finished a small bathroom remodel in the East Gate neighborhood, a 1972 concrete-block house where the tub surround had rotted out from years of weep-hole failure. Our crew pulled the old fiberglass unit, redid the rough-in valves with a Moen Posi-Temp, and laid a rubber membrane under the new porcelain tile floor before installing a Kohler Archer tub. The homeowner got a dry, mold-free bathroom that will outlast the next hurricane season. When we find rot, we fix it right then and adjust the written quote before proceeding. Call (754) 354-3720 if you suspect water damage behind your tile.
