Bathroom Remodeling in Estero, FL

Out with the garden tub, in with the walk-in shower — spa-style primary baths and fresh guest baths for Estero homes.

Bathroom Remodeling in Estero, FL

If your Estero home was built in the 1990s or 2000s, there is a good chance the primary bath has a large corner garden tub, a small enclosed shower beside it, a single long vanity, and a lot of beige tile. Ask most owners how often they use the tub and the answer is “almost never.” That tub is taking up the space that could hold the shower you actually want.

A&E 24 Renovations is a family-run, owner-led studio. Enmanuel and Ashley personally lead every Estero bathroom remodel, with a fixed scope and price before demolition and a clean, respectful site in your community.

The Estero bathroom projects we do most

  • Garden tub to walk-in shower. We remove the tub and the cramped shower beside it and build one generous walk-in shower — often curbless or low-threshold, with a bench and a recessed niche.
  • Spa primary bath. Large-format porcelain or full-height stone, frameless glass, a modern double vanity, and layered lighting.
  • Guest bath refresh. For the bathrooms your visitors use, a new vanity, tile, fixtures and lighting update the whole feel without a full gut.
  • Keeping a tub where it matters. If you may sell someday, we often suggest keeping one tub in a guest bath, since some buyers still want one.

What goes into a bathroom that lasts

A beautiful shower is only as good as what is behind the tile. We build every wet area on a proper substrate with a waterproofing membrane, a correctly sloped shower pan, and sealed niches, benches, and corners. We also size and vent the exhaust fan to the outside, because in Southwest Florida humidity is what quietly ruins bathrooms.

Designed for the next fifteen years

Many Estero homeowners are planning to stay a long time. A curbless shower, a comfort-height vanity, slip-resistant tile, good lighting, and hidden blocking in the walls for future grab bars make a bath safer for every stage of life — without anything that looks medical.

Permits and your community

Moving a drain or changing plumbing usually requires a permit through the Village of Estero, which we pull for you. We also coordinate with your HOA or management company on insurance, gate passes, and approved work hours before we start.

Estero bathroom cost guide

A guest bathroom refresh in Estero — new vanity, counter, fixtures, lighting, and possibly new tile — usually runs $12,000 to $22,000. Converting a primary bath’s garden tub and small shower into one walk-in shower, with new tile and a double vanity, typically runs $28,000 to $45,000. A full spa primary bath with curbless entry, full-height stone, and a freestanding tub can run $45,000 to $70,000 or more. You receive a fixed price before demolition.

Step by step: an Estero bathroom remodel

  • Walkthrough. We look at the space, the plumbing locations, and how you use the room every day.
  • Design and selections. Shower layout, tile, glass, vanity, and fixtures, chosen together.
  • Fixed price, permit, and HOA coordination. A written scope and price, a Village of Estero permit if plumbing moves, and gate and work-hour arrangements with your community.
  • Demolition and rough-in. The old tub and tile come out, and drains and supply lines are moved as needed.
  • Waterproofing. Substrate, membrane, sloped pan, and a flood test before any tile is set.
  • Tile, glass, and finishes. Followed by a final walkthrough and a written warranty.

Most primary bath conversions take a few weeks on site. Because Estero homes often have a second bathroom, you usually keep a working bath throughout.

Popular Estero bathroom choices right now

For Estero primary baths, the most requested combination is a large walk-in shower with frameless glass, a built-in bench, a recessed niche, and a handheld sprayer, paired with large-format porcelain tile that keeps grout lines to a minimum. Owners favor light, warm neutrals, matte or brushed fixtures, and a double vanity with plenty of drawers. Where there is space, a freestanding tub becomes a sculptural centerpiece; where there is not, that square footage goes into an even larger shower. Good lighting and a properly vented fan finish the room.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a bathroom remodel cost in Estero?
Bathroom remodels in Estero typically range from about $15,000 for a guest bath refresh to $45,000 and up for a full primary bath with a walk-in shower. You receive a fixed price before demolition.
Can you convert my garden tub to a walk-in shower?
Yes. Removing the garden tub and building a generous walk-in shower is the most common bathroom project we do in Estero.
Do I need a permit for a bathroom remodel in Estero?
If the work changes plumbing, such as moving a drain, a permit through the Village of Estero is usually required. We handle it for you.
Should I keep a bathtub for resale?
If you may sell, keeping one tub somewhere in the home, often in a guest bath, is a smart choice, while converting the primary bath to a walk-in shower.
Will I have a working bathroom during the remodel?
Usually yes. Most Estero homes have more than one bathroom, so we schedule the work so at least one stays usable throughout. If yours has only one, we plan the timeline to keep the time without a shower as short as possible.
