Remodel Your Bathroom for Function and Safety

Full bathroom renovations designed for homeowners in Melbourne, Florida

Your bathroom in Melbourne may have cracked tiles that let moisture seep beneath the floor, a tub that is difficult to step into safely, or a vanity that blocks the door from opening fully. Watson Construction and Renovation specializes in full bathroom remodels that address layout problems, moisture damage, and accessibility concerns common in Florida homes. The work includes demolition, framing adjustments, fixture replacements, waterproofing, and finish installation tailored to how you use the space.

The renovation begins with removing old fixtures, tile, and any water-damaged drywall or subflooring. Watson Construction and Renovation inspects the framing for mold or rot and makes repairs before installing new plumbing lines, electrical circuits, and ventilation. Waterproof backer board goes behind tiled walls, and the shower pan or tub surround is sealed to prevent leaks. The team is fully licensed and insured, with experience meeting Florida building codes for wet areas and safe electrical placement. Free estimates include personalized renovation guidance so you understand what the project involves and what improvements will make the biggest difference.

How a bathroom remodel gets done right

After demolition, the crew addresses any moisture damage, replaces sections of subflooring if needed, and reframes walls to accommodate new fixture locations or accessibility features such as curbless showers or grab bars. In Melbourne, proper ventilation is critical, so exhaust fans are upgraded or repositioned to move humid air outside rather than into the attic. Plumbing rough-ins are inspected before walls are closed up.

You will notice the bathroom feels more spacious and easier to clean once new tile, a modern vanity, and updated lighting are installed. Grout lines are sealed to resist mildew, and fixtures such as faucets and showerheads are positioned for comfort and accessibility. Flooring is sloped subtly toward the drain in wet areas to prevent standing water, and transitions between tile and other flooring types are finished cleanly to avoid tripping hazards.

Watson Construction and Renovation schedules inspections for plumbing and electrical work as required and coordinates material delivery to keep the project on schedule. The timeline depends on whether the layout changes and how much moisture damage is found, but most bathrooms are completed within three to five weeks. The team seals off the work area to limit dust and noise in the rest of your home, and cleanup happens daily.

What you should know before starting a remodel

Before committing to a bathroom renovation, homeowners usually ask about moisture damage, layout changes, and how long the bathroom will be unusable.

What happens if you find mold or rot during demolition?
Watson Construction and Renovation removes damaged materials, treats the affected area, and replaces framing or subflooring as needed. You receive a cost estimate for repairs before the work proceeds, and the crew ensures the bathroom is dry and structurally sound before finishing.
How long will the bathroom be out of service?
Most full bathroom remodels take three to five weeks depending on the extent of layout changes, tile work, and fixture installation. You will need access to another bathroom during that time, as plumbing is disconnected for much of the project.
Can you make the shower easier to enter?
Yes, Watson Construction and Renovation installs curbless showers, bench seating, and grab bars positioned according to accessibility guidelines. The floor is sloped properly to keep water contained without needing a raised threshold.
Will you match the tile in the rest of my home?
The crew can match tile style and color as closely as possible, though exact matches may be difficult if your current tile is discontinued. You choose new tile during the planning phase, and samples are available to compare against your existing finishes.
How do you prevent leaks around the new shower or tub?
Watson Construction and Renovation uses waterproof backer board, seals all seams and corners with membrane, and applies multiple layers of protection around the drain and valve openings. The shower pan is tested for leaks before tile is installed to ensure a watertight enclosure.
