For Kendall homeowners

A shower that works better in your current bathroom

Kendall is one of the biggest communities in Miami-Dade with a mix of single-family homes from the 70s and 80s and newer townhouse developments. Lots of homeowners here are updating older layouts.

The mix of older single-family homes and newer townhouse communities makes same-footprint shower planning especially useful here. We focus on the daily result, not a one-size-fits-all package.

Same footprint

Keep the tub footprint when that makes sense for the budget and the way you use the room.

Real waterproofing

We prepare the pan, walls, niches, and corners before the finished surface goes in.

Glass and storage

Choose the panel, door, niche, and fixtures that keep the room comfortable and easy to clean.

More comfortable entry

A low curb, seat, grab bars, and handheld shower can be built into the design.

How the conversion works

1. Measure

We review the alcove, entry, drain, walls, and what you want to improve.

2. Protect

We protect the path into the home and plan material and debris staging.

3. Build

We remove the tub, waterproof, install tile, and finish the fixtures.

4. Finish

We measure and install the glass, clean up, and review the result with you.

Questions about your project

How much does a tub-to-shower conversion cost in Kendall?

In Kendall, a standalone conversion is usually planned between $4,500 and $12,000. The range changes with the shower size, tile, glass, waterproofing, fixtures, and whether the plumbing stays close to its current location. The final number needs bathroom measurements and a look at the existing tub area. Broke & Fixed starts with a price-range form so you can decide whether the project fits before sorting through every material choice.

How long does the project take in Kendall?

A tiled same-footprint conversion usually takes five to eight working days in Kendall. The work includes protection, demolition, tub removal, preparation, waterproofing, tile, grout, fixtures, and glass. A complex pattern, hidden damage, drain change, or custom glass can add time. Before work starts, you receive a schedule that shows when the shower will be out of service and when it can be used again.

Can you replace only the tub area in my Kendall bathroom?

Yes. Many conversions focus on the tub area and leave the vanity, toilet, and rest of the room in place. That works when the bathroom floor, walls outside the wet area, and existing fixtures are still in good condition. We review the space, talk through entry, storage, seating, tile, and glass, then define the scope. If the rest of the bathroom also needs work, you can compare a focused conversion with a larger remodel instead of guessing which path makes more sense.
