Bathroom Remodeling in Jacksonville & Northeast Florida
Clear pricing, a schedule we hold to, and permits handled for you.
A bathroom remodel with the numbers stated up front
A small bathroom of roughly 7x5 typically takes about seven days including permitting and runs $10,000 to $14,000 with materials included. A master bathroom typically takes two to three weeks and runs $17,000 to $35,000, again with materials included. Those are the real figures we work from, published here rather than held back until you are sitting at your kitchen table.
Most contractors will not put a number on a website at all, which leaves homeowners researching a project they cannot budget for. We would rather you knew roughly where a bathroom lands before you ever call — if the range does not work for you, neither of us has lost an afternoon finding that out.
We remodel bathrooms across Jacksonville and Duval, Clay, St. Johns, and Nassau counties, under Florida licence CBC1269967 as a Certified Building Contractor.

A range is not a quote — and we will not pretend otherwise
The figures above are what bathrooms like yours typically cost. They are not a quote, because nobody can price a bathroom they have not stood in. Two rooms with identical dimensions can sit at opposite ends of the same range depending on whether the plumbing moves and what you choose at the tile counter.
So the range is where the conversation starts, not where it ends. We come out, measure, and go through the scope with you, and within 48 hours you have a comprehensive written proposal with the real number and everything it covers. The consultation and the proposal are free, and there is no obligation attached to either.
What a bathroom typically costs and how long it typically takes
Small bathroom — about 7 days
$10,000 – $14,000, materials included
A guest or hall bathroom of roughly 7x5. About seven days from start to finish, and that figure already includes permitting rather than adding it on afterwards.
A week is short enough that a household with a second bathroom barely feels it. If this is your only bathroom, say so at the consultation and we will plan the sequence around it.
Master bathroom — 2 to 3 weeks
$17,000 – $35,000, materials included
A primary suite bathroom: larger footprint, more tile, usually a bigger shower, and more often than not a layout change that moves plumbing.
The spread between the two ends of that range is mostly scope and selections — how much moves, and what you choose. Your written proposal tells you exactly where your bathroom lands and why.
Waterproofing is what decides whether a bathroom lasts
Everything a homeowner judges a bathroom by is the last ten percent of the work. The part that determines whether it is still sound in fifteen years is hidden behind the tile, and it is the first thing a cheap bid quietly removes.
Tile and grout are not waterproof. Water moves through grout, which means the waterproofing assembly underneath is the only thing standing between your shower and your framing. Done properly it is unremarkable and invisible. Done badly it is also invisible — for about two years, until the floor goes soft and the repair costs more than the original remodel did.
We detail the membrane, the corners, the curb, and the seams on every bathroom we build, because those transitions are precisely where shortcuts get taken. You will never see that work, and it is a large part of what you are actually paying for.

How a bathroom remodel runs
Seven stages, with permitting and material delivery handled by us. The only things asked of you are the consultation, the selections, and the final walkthrough.
- 1
On-site consultation and measurements
We come out, measure the room, and go through what you want changed — including whether any fixtures are moving, which is the decision that most affects both cost and schedule.
- 2
Written proposal within 48 hours
Full scope and price in writing within two days of the consultation. The range on this page becomes an actual number for your actual bathroom, with the scope itemised so nothing is left to interpretation.
- 3
Selections at Floor & Decor
You work with an in-store designer on tile, colours, vanity, and fixtures. Selections go on a form under our account, and we purchase, collect, and deliver everything to site.
- 4
Permitting
We pull the permit and handle the paperwork. Our licensed plumbing subcontractor pulls their trade permit under our master permit, and our electrical subcontractor does the same where the scope calls for it.
- 5
Demolition and rough-in
The old bathroom comes out and the plumbing and electrical are run to the new layout, then inspected before anything is closed up.
- 6
Waterproofing, tile, and finishes
Waterproofing goes in before a single tile does. Then tile, the vanity, fixtures, lighting, glass, and paint — in the order that keeps each trade off the finished work of the last one.
- 7
Final inspection and walkthrough
County final inspection, then a walkthrough with you before we call it done. Your one-year workmanship warranty starts at completion.

Bathroom remodeling questions
The five questions everyone asks before hiring, plus the ones specific to bathrooms.
It depends on the size and scope of the work, so we price every project individually after seeing it in person. As a concrete reference point, a small bathroom of roughly 7x5 typically runs $10,000 to $14,000, and a master bathroom typically runs $17,000 to $35,000, with materials included in both. Your written proposal arrives within 48 hours of the on-site consultation and lays out the full scope and price, so you are never comparing guesses. Estimates and consultations are free.
We provide them. Through our partnership with Floor & Decor you work directly with an in-store designer to choose colours, tile, and finishes, and your selections go onto a form under our account. From there we purchase, pick up, and deliver everything to the job site. You get to make the fun decisions without managing orders, deliveries, or returns.
Yes. GIL pulls and handles all permits for your project — that is part of what you are hiring a licensed contractor to do, and it is included. Our licensed plumbing and electrical subcontractors pull their own trade permits under our master permit. You do not need to contact the building department or schedule an inspection yourself.
We give you a schedule in the written proposal and we finish on or ahead of it. A small bathroom is usually about 7 days including permitting; a master bathroom is typically 2 to 3 weeks. Larger work such as an addition or new construction runs longer and is scheduled specifically for your project. We complete 30 to 40 projects a year, so our timelines come from experience rather than optimism.
Cesar Perdomo, and he manages customers exclusively. This is the structural difference at GIL: our business partner runs the job sites, so Cesar is never pulled onto a roof or under a house when you call. At most contracting companies one person does both jobs, which is exactly why homeowners cannot reach their contractor mid-project. Someone here is always reachable by phone — no run-arounds and no no-shows.
The work and the materials both — the ranges are not labour-only figures. That covers demolition, the plumbing and electrical work, waterproofing, tile, the vanity and fixtures you selected, and the permit. Because scope is what moves a bathroom inside its range, the written proposal you get within 48 hours of the consultation itemises exactly what your project includes, line by line, rather than leaving you to infer it from a single number.
Three things, in roughly this order: how much the plumbing moves, how big the room is, and how expensive your selections are. Leaving the shower, toilet, and vanity where they are is far cheaper than relocating them, because relocation means opening the floor and re-running supply and drain lines. Your selections at Floor & Decor also swing the total meaningfully — the same layout can land at either end of a range depending on the tile and fixtures you choose.
If the project moves or adds plumbing or electrical, yes — and we pull it for you. Relocating a shower, moving a toilet, adding a second sink, or adding circuits all constitute permitted work, and the permitting time is already built into the timelines we quote. Our licensed plumbing subcontractor pulls their own trade permit under our master permit. We confirm exactly what your scope requires with the building department rather than guessing, and you never have to contact them yourself.
It is the membrane and detailing installed behind and beneath the tile, and it is the single detail that decides whether a bathroom lasts. Tile and grout are not waterproof on their own — water passes through grout, so the assembly underneath is what actually keeps it out of the framing. When it is skipped or rushed the failure is invisible for a year or two, then shows up as soft floor, mould, and a rebuild that costs more than the original remodel. We detail it properly on every bathroom, including the corners, the curb, and the seams, which is exactly where shortcuts get taken.
Yes, and it is one of the most worthwhile changes in a small bathroom. Moving fixtures means opening the floor to re-run supply and drain lines, so it is permitted work and it adds both cost and days to the schedule — we will tell you at the consultation what the move is likely to be worth against what it will add. Plenty of bathrooms feel completely different from a better vanity, better lighting, and a larger shower without any fixture moving at all.
