Your shower gets used every single day — it should feel great and work flawlessly. Port St. Lucie Bathroom Remodeling rebuilds showers across Port St. Lucie and St. Lucie County with proper waterproofing, beautiful tile, and fixtures chosen for Florida’s hard water and humid climate.
Whether your shower is leaking, fighting mold that won’t quit, or just stuck in the 1990s, we can rebuild it into a walk-in shower you’ll actually enjoy using.
Walk-In Showers, Tile & Glass
Most of the showers we build are walk-in designs: an open entry or a sleek glass panel instead of a door you have to squeeze through. Inside, you choose the look — classic white subway tile, large-format porcelain, natural stone, or a bold accent wall — with tile laid properly over a waterproofed base.
For the enclosure, pick what fits your space and budget: a simple shower curtain, a framed glass door, or frameless glass for that clean, open, high-end look.
Waterproofing Done Right
Here’s what matters most — and what you never see: the waterproofing behind the tile. Many Port St. Lucie homes built in the 1980s and 90s have tile installed directly over drywall, with no waterproof membrane at all. Once water gets behind the tile, the drywall rots, mold grows, and tiles start coming loose.
We rebuild showers with modern membrane waterproofing systems: sealed wall boards or liquid-applied membranes, waterproofed niches and benches, and properly sloped shower pans. Done right, the shower stays dry behind the tile for decades — even in Florida humidity.
Fixtures & Finishes
- Showerheads — rainfall heads, handheld wands on slide bars, or combination setups.
- Valves — pressure-balancing or thermostatic valves for safe, consistent temperature.
- Niches and shelving — recessed tiled niches for shampoo and soap, so nothing sits on the floor.
- Benches and seating — a tiled bench for comfort and safety.
- Grab bars — anchored to structure behind the tile, placed where you reach for support.
Signs Your Shower Needs Work
- Water leaking onto the bathroom floor, or staining the ceiling of the room below.
- Mold or mildew that keeps coming back no matter how you clean.
- Cracked tiles or crumbling, permanently stained grout.
- A musty smell in the bathroom you can’t find the source of.
- Walls that feel soft or spongy around the shower.
If any of these sound familiar, the problem is often behind the tile — and it only gets worse with time. A rebuild fixes it at the source instead of covering it up.
What a Shower Remodel Costs
Shower remodels in the Port St. Lucie area typically run about $2,000–$8,000. What moves the price within that range:
- Size of the shower — more square footage means more tile and labor.
- Tile selection — basic ceramic at one end, natural stone and designer tile at the other.
- Glass enclosure — a curtain costs far less than frameless glass.
- Plumbing changes — moving the drain or valve adds labor and permit scope.
- Hidden damage — if we find rotted framing or subfloor once the old shower comes out, repairing it adds to the job.
