Master Bathroom Remodeling in South Florida
Your master bath is the one room you use every single day. D&S Contractors Group designs and builds master bathroom renovations across Broward, Miami-Dade, and Palm Beach counties, from freestanding tubs and wet rooms to full suite reconfigurations.
A Master Bathroom Remodel Is a Different Kind of Project
A guest bath is mostly finishes. A master bathroom is a construction project. The rooms are bigger, the fixtures are heavier, the plumbing runs are longer, and homeowners almost always want the layout changed rather than simply refreshed. That means moving drains, relocating walls, reframing for a larger shower, and sometimes borrowing space from an adjoining closet or bedroom.
That is exactly the kind of work a licensed general contractor should be doing. We hold Florida Certified General Contractor license CGC-1533489, which covers structural work, so we are not limited to swapping fixtures in place. If your master suite needs a wall moved or a shower drain relocated across the slab, we can do it legally and pull the permit for it.
We have been remodeling South Florida homes for more than 20 years, and master baths are among the most rewarding projects we take on. Done properly, it is the renovation homeowners tell us they notice every morning.

Signature Features of a Master Bathroom Renovation
These are the elements South Florida homeowners ask for most when they remodel a master bath, and what each one actually involves.
Freestanding Soaking Tubs
The centerpiece of most master baths. These need a dedicated floor drain location, a reinforced floor for the filled weight, and a floor-mounted filler roughed in before tile goes down, so it has to be planned early.
Walk-In & Wet Room Showers
Oversized curbless showers, sometimes sharing one waterproofed zone with the tub. Wet rooms need continuous membrane coverage and careful slope so water goes exactly where it should.
Double Vanities
Two sinks, two mirrors, and enough counter between them to stay out of each other's way. We size these to the actual wall rather than forcing a stock unit into a space it does not fit.
Large Format & Stone Tile
Slab-look porcelain, marble, and book-matched feature walls. Large panels need a genuinely flat substrate, so we spend the time on preparation that makes the finished surface look seamless.
Storage & Closet Integration
Linen towers, medicine niches, and in many South Florida homes, opening the master bath into an adjoining closet to gain the square footage the room was missing.
Lighting & Ventilation
Layered lighting at the vanity, in the shower, and on dimmers, plus an exhaust fan actually sized for the room volume. In our humidity, undersized ventilation is what ruins a beautiful bathroom.
What Does a Master Bathroom Remodel Cost in South Florida?
Master baths cost more than standard bathrooms because they are larger and usually involve layout changes. Here are the ranges we see across the tri-county area.
| Project Scope | What It Usually Includes | Typical Range |
|---|---|---|
| Master Bath Refresh | New vanity, fixtures, tile, and glass with the existing layout and plumbing locations kept in place. | $25,000 to $40,000 |
| Full Master Remodel | Complete gut, new shower and tub, double vanity, relocated fixtures, permits, and inspections. | $40,000 to $70,000 |
| Luxury Spa Master Suite | Wet room, freestanding tub, slab or book-matched stone, custom cabinetry, and premium fixtures. | $70,000 to $110,000 |
| Suite Reconfiguration | Moving walls, absorbing closet or bedroom space, structural framing, and full mechanical rerouting. | $110,000 and up |
These are general planning ranges, not quotes. What moves the number most on a master bath is whether fixtures relocate, whether the shower drain has to be cut into the slab, and the material tier you choose. Stone slab and custom glass carry the widest price swings. We give you a firm, itemized number after a free in-home walkthrough. Call 954-743-9707.
Most Master Baths Fail on Layout, Not Finishes
We walk into a lot of master bathrooms where the tile is expensive and the room still does not work. A garden tub eating a third of the floor that nobody has used in a decade. A shower too narrow for two people to pass. A door that swings into the vanity. Beautiful materials cannot fix any of that.
So we start with the floor plan. Often the biggest gain in a South Florida master suite comes from removing an oversized builder tub and converting that footprint into a proper walk-in shower, or from taking a few feet from an adjoining closet to square up the room. These changes cost less than people expect and change the space far more than an upgraded tile.
Because most South Florida homes sit on concrete slab, relocating a drain means cutting and repouring. It is routine work when a licensed contractor plans it up front, and an expensive surprise when someone discovers it mid-project. We identify that in the estimate, not after demolition.
Our Master Bathroom Remodeling Process
Five stages from the first walkthrough to the day you use the room, with the schedule set before demolition starts.
Free Consultation
We measure the suite, discuss what is not working, and provide an itemized quote at no cost.
Layout & Selections
We settle the floor plan first, then choose tile, stone, glass, and fixtures around it.
Permits & Ordering
We file permits and order long lead items like stone slab and custom glass early to protect the schedule.
Build Phase
Demolition, rough plumbing and electrical, inspections, waterproofing, tile, then finishes and glass.
Final Walkthrough
We review every detail with you and close the permit. The job is not done until you say it is.

Spa Comfort That Survives the Florida Climate
A master bathroom gets more use and more moisture than any other room in a South Florida home. Two people showering daily in a coastal climate puts real stress on waterproofing, cabinetry, and hardware. The failures we get called to repair are almost always the same: membrane skipped behind a bench, grout that was never sealed, or a fan too small for a large room.
We build for those conditions. Full waterproofing membranes across every wet surface, cement backer board instead of drywall, moisture-rated cabinetry, quality sealants, and ventilation sized to the actual room volume rather than whatever came in the box.
Many homeowners also ask us to build in comfort features that age well: a curbless shower entry, blocking in the walls for future grab bars, a bench sized for real use, and comfort-height fixtures. None of it reads as clinical, and it means the room still works for you in twenty years.

Master Bathroom Remodeling FAQs
How much does a master bathroom remodel cost in South Florida?
In South Florida, a master bath refresh that keeps the existing layout typically runs $25,000 to $40,000. A full master remodel with relocated fixtures runs $40,000 to $70,000. A luxury spa suite with a wet room, freestanding tub, and stone slab generally falls between $70,000 and $110,000, and projects that move walls or absorb closet space start around $110,000. The biggest cost drivers are whether plumbing relocates and the material tier you select. D&S Contractors Group provides a free in-home walkthrough and an itemized quote at 954-743-9707.
How long does a master bathroom renovation take?
Most master bathroom remodels take four to eight weeks of active work, longer than a standard bathroom because of the size and the layout changes involved. A refresh that keeps existing plumbing can finish in about three to four weeks. Projects that move walls or relocate drains in a concrete slab typically run six to ten weeks. Stone slab and custom glass carry long lead times, so we order those early and build the schedule around them.
Can you move the shower, tub, or toilet in a master bathroom?
Yes. Because we are a licensed general contractor, we can relocate fixtures, move walls, and handle the structural work involved. In South Florida most homes sit on a concrete slab, so moving a drain means cutting the slab, rerouting the line, and repouring. It is routine work when it is planned and permitted up front, and we identify it during the estimate rather than after demolition begins.
Is a master bathroom remodel worth the investment?
Master bathroom renovations are consistently among the home improvements buyers respond to most, particularly in South Florida where updated, moisture-resistant bathrooms are a selling point. Beyond resale, it is the room you use twice a day, so the daily benefit is immediate. Permitted work matters here: unpermitted renovations create real problems during a sale or an insurance claim, which is why we handle permits on every project.
Can you expand a master bathroom into a closet or bedroom?
Often, yes. Borrowing space from an adjoining walk-in closet is one of the most effective ways to fix a cramped master bath, and it is usually less expensive than homeowners expect. Whether it is possible depends on whether the wall is load bearing and where the existing plumbing runs. We evaluate both during the consultation and tell you honestly what the space will allow.
Do you need a permit for a master bathroom remodel?
Yes, in nearly all cases. Master bath projects almost always involve plumbing, electrical, or structural changes, all of which require permits from your local South Florida building department. We handle the entire process, including submissions, condo association approvals where required, and inspection scheduling, so the finished work is documented and code compliant.
Can I still live at home during the renovation?
Almost always, yes, as long as there is a second bathroom available. We seal off the work area, protect flooring along the path in and out, and clean the site daily. You will lose the use of the master bath for the duration, and there will be a few scheduled days when water to that zone is shut off. We tell you those dates in advance.
