Bathroom Remodeling cost in Tampa

Long cooling seasons and heavy summer rain drive the two problems we see most here: moisture getting into assemblies, and anything that traps it staying wet.

Tub-to-shower conversions are the most requested change and the most commonly botched, usually at the curb and the drain: the pan has to slope to the drain evenly or water sits against the curb and finds the gap.

Ventilation sized to the room, ducted outside and not into the attic, is what stops the mold that brings people back two years later.

  • Tub-to-shower conversion
