Bathroom Remodeling

Bathroom Remodeling in Tampa, FL

Velez Design Consulting & Remodeling delivers comprehensive bathroom remodeling services for residential homes across Tampa, FL. We specialize in transforming outdated or inefficient spaces into modern, code-compliant bathrooms through precise design development, structural planning, and finish installation. Every project is approached with a technical focus to meet city permitting standards while enhancing daily function and spatial aesthetics.

Code-Compliant Layout Redesign

Each bathroom remodel begins with a full assessment of the existing space, including measurements, mechanical layout, and structural limitations. The configuration is reworked to improve traffic flow, lighting access, and fixture spacing—all while adhering to the Florida Building Code and Tampa municipal requirements.

Floorplan Reconfiguration

If wall relocation or floorplan expansion is required, our team prepares revised layouts that reflect fixture spacing, doorway clearances, and ADA or universal design recommendations where applicable. Structural changes are calculated and integrated into permit-ready drawings.

Fixture Placement and Routing

New layouts account for plumbing fixture placement—including toilets, vanities, showers, and tubs—based on existing supply and drain locations. Adjustments are made to avoid cross-contamination of lines or interference with structural framing.

Preliminary Design and Permit Drawings

Velez Design Consulting & Remodeling prepares detailed design plans for homeowners and permitting officials. These documents include scaled floorplans, electrical layouts, and elevation views required for bathroom renovation permits in Tampa.

Drafting and Technical Details

All drawings meet permit submission standards for residential bathroom remodeling, including specifications for structural reinforcement, waterproofing systems, and load calculations if major modifications are introduced.

City Permit Coordination

Our staff coordinates directly with Tampa’s permitting office, submitting applications and responding to revision requests. This process ensures the remodel meets inspection requirements for each construction phase, from rough-in to final.

Custom Shower and Tub Installation

Many remodeling projects in Tampa focus on updating or replacing aging tubs and enclosed showers. Our team designs and constructs new walk-in showers, frameless glass enclosures, or freestanding tubs to reflect each client’s goals.

Shower Enclosure Design

We design custom tiled showers with niche shelving, bench seating, and linear or center drains. Drain slope, waterproofing membranes, and tile substrate are carefully constructed to meet code and prevent long-term water damage.

Bathtub Replacement or Conversion

For tub-to-shower conversions or upgraded tub installations, we verify plumbing compatibility and handle all demolition, framing, and finish-out work. Free-standing and alcove tubs are installed with appropriate underlayment, bracing, and drainage components.

Tile, Flooring, and Wall Finishes

Tile selection and installation play a critical role in the durability and visual appeal of any bathroom remodel. We offer full flooring and wall finish services using water-resistant materials suitable for Tampa’s humid climate.

Floor and Wall Tile Installation

Our team installs porcelain, ceramic, or natural stone tile with high-performance underlayment systems. Floors are leveled and waterproofed before tiling begins. Vertical applications, such as accent walls or full-height tile in showers, are finished with precision to align patterns and grout lines.

Waterproofing and Backer Board Systems

To prevent mold or water damage, we use industry-standard waterproofing membranes and cementitious backer board systems behind all wet-area installations. These systems are inspected prior to tiling and meet Florida’s residential construction codes.

Vanity, Countertop, and Storage Solutions

Vanity units and storage cabinets are planned to provide functional improvement and integrate with plumbing and electrical layout changes. We help clients select prefabricated or custom options to match their space and usage requirements.

Vanity Sizing and Sink Placement

All vanity installations are measured for proper height, width, and depth based on space constraints. Sinks are selected and aligned with drain and supply line locations. Countertop materials—such as quartz, granite, or solid surface—are fabricated to exact dimensions.

Storage Integration

Medicine cabinets, linen closets, and custom shelving units are added where space allows. We ensure they meet clearance requirements and are anchored to framing where needed for safety and durability.

Electrical, Lighting, and Exhaust Systems

Electrical work is performed to accommodate lighting upgrades, outlet relocation, and GFCI protection per Tampa electrical codes. Lighting layout and exhaust design are essential for comfort, energy efficiency, and code compliance.

Lighting Layout and Fixture Installation

We design lighting plans that include ambient ceiling lights, vanity lighting, and recessed fixtures in showers or tubs. Final installations are coordinated after tile and finish carpentry work to prevent damage and ensure accurate alignment.

Ventilation Systems

New or upgraded exhaust fans are installed to comply with ventilation requirements in enclosed bathrooms. Duct routing and fan sizing are evaluated based on room dimensions and code-mandated airflow rates.

Trim, Paint, and Final Finish Work

After all primary systems are completed and inspected, we handle the final finishing stages. This includes painting, trim installation, and cleanup to prepare the bathroom for occupancy.

Paint and Surface Prep

Moisture-resistant paints are applied to walls and ceilings. Surfaces are prepped to ensure proper adhesion, and corner seams are caulked or trimmed for a clean finish.

Baseboards, Crown, and Fixtures

Trim and finish carpentry includes baseboard installation, crown molding, window trim, and hardware mounting for towel bars, mirrors, and toilet paper holders. Final quality checks are completed before turnover.
