What aging-in-place remodeling costs
There is no package price. A curbless bath is not a whole house, and a floor that has to be rebuilt is not a fixture swap.
The existing house
A published starting price brings the wrong call. A curb that stays, a floor that has to come out, and a sinkhole under a bath are three different jobs. One number cannot cover them.
The baths we can price against are real: Lake Butler in Windermere, the Reunion roll-in, and the Orlando wet room. Winter Park’s primary bath is not in this number, because it was not built as a roll-in.
How this job is built
At the free visit we look at the existing floor, the curb, and whether the job is one room or the house. Removing a threshold and rebuilding the membrane is the Reunion grand bath. Beams and columns under a bath, because a sinkhole sat in the porch, is Lake Butler — that is structure, not a shower price. Devices, if you want them, go in while that floor is open. They are not a second invoice the year after, and they are not claimed on a bath where they were not installed.
The wet room is permitted under Florida license CGC1531832. The first meeting is free and on site. We do not email a budget from a photo.
- One room
- A curbless or roll-in bath, when the rest of the house stays. Reunion and the Orlando wet room are that scope.
- The whole house
- Lake Butler was the bath plus windows, a new clay-tile color, and structure under the porch. That is not a bath price.
- The floor
- If the membrane and the slope have to be rebuilt, the calendar and the number both move. A fixture swap does not.
- While it is open
- Blocking, a leak sensor, and night lighting are decided then. Coming back after the tile is the expensive version.

“My bathroom remodel is a dream come true. It is exactly what I hoped for, only better. And they were so easy to work with! I'm already discussing a kitchen remodel with them to complete next.”

Reunion aging-in-place bathroom — roll-in shower
The homeowner wanted a safer bath without giving up a high-end primary suite. A garden tub and a step-in shower became a roll-in wet room.
A garden tub and a step-in shower became a roll-in wet room you can enter without stepping up.
Nothing electronic is claimed on this bath. The safety is the floor, the opening, and the drain.
Lake Butler House — Windermere whole-house renovation
A whole-house renovation in Windermere. The porch under the master bath had failed. The bath is now a curbless room open to the lake.
The house on the lake still reads as the house on the lake. The bath, the structure under it, and the exterior were finished together.
Smart-home safety was planned with the renovation while the walls were open. Shades at the lake-facing glass are part of this bath.
Orlando wet room
An open Orlando wet room — linear drain, stone floor, and a shower you walk into without a curb.
You walk into the wet zone without a curb. The vanity stays outside the glass.
Not a smart-home installation. The access is the waterproofing, the slope, and the drain.
FAQ
Permits, time, and the first visit.
- Do you publish a starting price?
- No. The number is set at the free on-site visit, after we see the floor and the curb.
- Is a roll-in the same price as a kitchen?
- No. A kitchen whose layout holds can finish in as little as two weeks from permit. A roll-in takes the waterproofing. They are not the same clock and not the same number.
- Does smart-home safety add a second contract?
- Not when it is on the renovation drawing. A lock, a leak sensor, and night lighting are located while the work is open. We will not price a hub for a house we are not renovating.
