Fast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across Aventura
Bathroom remodeling in Aventura typically runs $9,000 – $28,000 for a full coastal-spec renovation, with most projects tied to the concrete restoration schedule that high-rise associations here know well. Our crews are dispatched from our Miami office and serve Aventura towers along the Intracoastal daily. Call (949) 850-9896 to schedule your free estimate.
We’ve worked in enough Aventura buildings to know the rhythm: once the engineer’s report flags spalled balcony soffits or post-tension tendon corrosion, the association opens a demolition window, and owners use that chance to gut bathrooms that share plumbing chases with the damaged slab. That’s when we get the call. We know the permitting path through Miami-Dade County’s high-velocity hurricane zone, the material specs that survive salt air, and how to coordinate with concrete restoration crews so your finish doesn’t get mismatched to a patched soffit line.
Why Elmstead Remodeling Is Aventura’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
Our reputation in Aventura was built tower by tower, not through advertising. We’ve completed bathroom remodels in buildings from the original Aventura Country Club area to the newer towers near Gulfstream Park, and property managers here refer us because we leave units clean enough to show the same evening.
Reviews from Aventura customers mention the same things: shoe covers and drop cloths on every visit, quiet tools during afternoon rest hours, and the photo of the clean-up before our crew leaves. The Cedarwell Care Promise governs every project: Clean up like it’s our own home, Ask before we move anything, Respect the family’s time and quiet hours, and Explain the price before the work.
Response time to Aventura is same-day for estimates once you call. Phones are answered by a live person 24/7, not a voicemail box or automated system. Graham Stein, who leads our operations, reviews every written price before it goes out.
Local knowledge matters here because Aventura’s building stock is unlike anywhere else in South Florida. The salt-laden air off the Intracoastal accelerates concrete carbonation and rebar corrosion faster than inland cities, and every project must comply with Miami-Dade’s HVHZ code. We specify marine-grade stainless fasteners and sealed joints as standard, not upgrades.
Styles & brands we work with
Bathroom Remodeling Contractor in Aventura
Bathroom Remodeling Contractor work in Aventura means coordinating with structural engineers, concrete restoration crews, and association managers before the first tile is stacked. The typical full bathroom remodel in an Aventura high-rise runs $9,000 – $28,000, with small bathroom remodels at $5,000 – $12,000. Most jobs start not with a Pinterest board but with a SIRS report or 30-year recertification letter.
When the slab is opened for spall repair, the bathroom wet wall is exposed. That’s the moment to replace cast-iron drains, re-waterproof the membrane tie-ins, and rebuild with materials rated for salt-air exposure. We write the price before any work starts, every time, and our 365-Day Done Right Promise covers every completed project.
Concrete Restoration Coordination
We schedule our demolition and rough-in to match the structural crew’s patch schedule. Finish carpentry waits until the slab is re-waterproofed and signed off. This prevents the change order no one wants: tearing out new tile because the engineer rejected a soffit repair.
Material Specifications for Salt Air
Chrome or standard galvanized hardware pits within a year here. We specify stainless or hot-dip fasteners, marine-grade shower door hinges, and sealed grout joints in every scope of work. The price gap between coastal-spec and inland-spec is real, but the cheap spec costs more when you’re replacing corroded hinges in 18 months.
Walk In Shower in Aventura
Walk In Shower installations in Aventura high-rises run $4,500 – $12,000 and demand more than a standard wet-area remodel. The drain location is often fixed by the existing cast-iron stack, and the curb must tie into a membrane that’s sealed to concrete that may have been patched during recent restoration work.
We frame curbs with pressure-treated lumber and hot-dip fasteners, set pre-sloped pans with sealed perimeter joints, and use Schluter or equivalent waterproofing systems rated for continuous moisture. Frameless glass enclosures get marine-grade hardware. Every connection is detailed in the written price before work starts.
Drain Stack Conditions
In towers built 1975 – 1995, we regularly find rust-jacked concrete around cast-iron drains. We saw-cut back to sound concrete, patch with polymer-modified repair mortar, and re-waterproof before setting the shower pan. Skipping this step means failure at the membrane tie-in.
Glass and Hardware Selection
Frameless enclosures look best in Aventura’s compact baths, but standard hardware fails fast. We specify 316 stainless or architectural-grade aluminum with anodized finishes, and we seal all wall-channel penetrations with mildew-resistant silicone rated for continuous wet exposure.
Trusted Brands We Service in Aventura
Our Bathroom Remodeling team installs cabinets from KraftMaid and Wellborn, countertops from Cambria, Silestone, and Caesarstone, and fixtures from Kohler, Moen, and Grohe. These are brands homeowners can research independently, and their warranties travel with the finished project. We stock common hardware and fasteners locally for Aventura jobs to avoid delays when a concrete restoration schedule is tight. Schluter waterproofing systems and James Hardie cement-board products round out our standard specifications for wet walls.

AfterCommon Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Aventura Homes
- Rust-jacked drain stacks in pre-1990 towers. The salt air works on cast-iron and concrete for decades before anyone opens the wall. We find this in buildings from the original Aventura development near the Country Club Drive corridor, and it demands saw-cut repair before the shower pan goes in.
- Standard hardware bleeding rust stains within a year. Chrome screws and galvanized hinges look fine at punch list, but Aventura’s Intracoastal exposure pits them fast. We specify marine-grade stainless as standard, not as an upgrade line item.
- Paper-faced drywall and organic mastic failing behind tile. Aventura’s humidity and salt exposure attack these materials from the back side. We use cement board and polymer-modified thinset on every wet wall, with membrane continuity at all penetrations.
- Membrane tie-ins left floating on patched concrete. After concrete restoration, the slab surface is porous and irregular. We grind, prime, and seal the patch before membrane installation, then flood-test before tile.

FAQs About Bathroom Remodeling in Aventura
Yes. Miami-Dade County requires permits for any plumbing, electrical, or structural modification, and high-velocity hurricane zone compliance must be verified for window or exterior wall penetrations if your bath shares a building envelope. Your association will also require proof of insurance, background checks for crew members, and coordination with their restoration schedule. Call (949) 850-9896 and we’ll walk you through the permit path for your specific building.
Marine-grade stainless fasteners, sealed grout systems, cement board instead of paper-faced drywall, and polymer-modified waterproofing membranes add material cost. More significantly, the labor to properly integrate with concrete restoration, saw-cut and patch spalled slabs, and flood-test membrane tie-ins before finish work takes additional time. The inland-spec job costs less upfront and more at the second remodel when corrosion has compromised the first one.
The association’s demolition window drives the schedule. We coordinate our rough-in to follow structural repairs and precede the re-waterproofing sign-off, with finish work sequenced after engineer approval. This typically means a 2 – 4 week preparation phase for permits and material procurement, then concentrated demolition and rough-in during the restoration window, and finally finish work on a flexible schedule. We write the timeline into the price so you’re not guessing.
We assess the drain stack condition, saw-cut and patch any spalled concrete, set a pre-sloped pan with sealed perimeter joints, install cement-board walls with Schluter or equivalent membrane continuity, and finish with tile and marine-grade frameless hardware. The written price includes all of this, coordinated with any ongoing restoration. Call (949) 850-9896 for an exact quote.
