Fast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across Wedgefield
Bathroom remodeling in Wedgefield, FL typically runs $9,000 to $28,000 for a full gut and rebuild, with smaller jobs like shower replacements landing between $3,000 and $8,500. Most Wedgefield homeowners we work with live on large lots with septic systems and wells, which means the scope of work often goes beyond tile and fixtures. You need a contractor who knows what those older custom homes hide behind the walls. Call (850) 427-6454 and we’ll give you a written number before any work starts.
Wedgefield is not a dense subdivision. It’s open land, big setbacks, and homes built in the 1980s and 1990s that have settled into the sandy soil. That changes how we approach a bathroom remodel. Subfloor moisture, electrical runs, and septic proximity all matter here in ways they don’t in a newer Orlando tract home. We work in neighborhoods off Maximilian Street, Bancroft Boulevard, and the acreage east of the Econlockhatchee River, so we know what to expect before we open the first wall.
Why Penhallow Remodeling Orlando Is Wedgefield’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
Trevor Nash runs our Wedgefield projects personally. He has walked dozens of these properties, from the custom builds near the Wedgefield Golf Club to the semi-custom stucco homes scattered along the rural routes. Homeowners here tell us the same thing: they want a contractor who answers the phone, shows up in the window they were given, and does not flinch when a permit review turns up something the last guy ignored.
That is what the Kingswell Way has meant since 2004. Written price before work starts. A defined arrival window. A clean job site. And a written guarantee on every project. Our 365-Day Done Right Promise is straightforward: if the work fails inside a year, we come back and fix it at no charge. That promise is in writing, not in a handshake.
Every technician who steps onto your Wedgefield property has passed a background check and arrives in uniform. You will know exactly who is walking into your home. And when you call, a live person answers, 24/7. No voicemail maze, no callback window. Just a real answer.
Styles & brands we work with
Small Bathroom Remodel in Wedgefield
A Small Bathroom Remodel in Wedgefield usually means a powder room, guest bath, or a hall bath under 50 square feet, and it runs $5,000 to $12,000 depending on what has to move. In Wedgefield, the number often shifts when we find the existing exhaust fan was never vented to the outside, or the toilet sits too close to a septic drain line that has to stay put. We plan for that before we demo.
Tight Spaces and Septic Lines
Wedgefield homes on septic systems have drain lines that are not always easy to relocate. If the toilet needs to shift even a foot, we check the fall line to the tank first. That avoids a surprise re-pipe mid-project. We would rather tell you the real number before the first tile comes up.
What We Replace Most Often
In small Wedgefield bathrooms, we usually replace a vanity, a toilet, a light fixture, and the flooring. The big ticket item is often the subfloor. Homes here sit on sandy, moisture-prone ground, and a small bathroom that has been leaking around the toilet flange for years can hide rot that only shows once the flooring is up. That repair is written into the change order and priced before we touch it.
Shower Remodel in Wedgefield
A Shower Remodel in Wedgefield typically runs $3,000 to $8,500, and the number depends on whether you are replacing a shower pan and surround, or tearing everything out and rebuilding for a walk-in unit. In Wedgefield, the biggest variable is what sits under the pan. High water table and sandy soil mean moisture moves differently here than on a concrete slab in a dense Orlando neighborhood.
When the Pan Fails
The most common shower failure we see in Wedgefield is a pan that was installed without a proper pre-slope, so water pools instead of draining. A shower remodel gives us the chance to correct that and to inspect the subfloor beneath. If the subfloor has wicked moisture, we repair it with pressure-treated lumber and a waterproof membrane before any tile goes down.
Walk-In and Tub-to-Shower Work
Many Wedgefield homeowners want to swap an old tub for a walk-in shower. That job starts around $3,500 and goes up from there. When we did a tub-to-shower conversion in a 1990s stucco home off Maximilian Street, the removal exposed corroded copper supply lines and a subfloor that had wicked moisture from a failed pan. Our crew wrote the dry-rot repair and a new PEX rough-in into the change order before a single staple went in, then pulled the permit update so the county inspector could sign off on the new GFCI circuit and the added blocking behind the shower valve.
Trusted Brands We Service in Wedgefield
We install products from brands that carry their own warranties, which doubles the protection on your Bathroom Remodeling project. For vanities we use KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinetry. For countertops, Cambria and Silestone quartz, both of which hold up to humidity better than natural stone and never need sealing. Faucets and shower valves come from Kohler and Moen. Because our Wedgefield customers often have specific finish preferences, we order parts directly from these manufacturers rather than settling for whatever is on a shelf. That adds a few days to the timeline sometimes, but it means the fixture you picked is the fixture that gets installed, and the warranty matches the product.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Wedgefield Homes
- High water table and subfloor wicking. Wedgefield’s flat, sandy soil holds water close to the surface. A shower pan that leaks for even a few years can pull that moisture up into the subfloor, and by the time you see tile cracking, the wood underneath is already failing.
- Undersized electrical for all-electric homes. Wedgefield has no natural gas lines, so every water heater is electric. When we open a wall for a remodel, we often find the old 30-amp line that powered a smaller tank years ago. Modern tankless units and larger tanks need a 50-amp circuit, and that upgrade has to go through the permit office.
- Improper venting. Many custom Wedgefield homes were built with exhaust fans that vent into the attic, not outside. That pushes moist air into the truss space, which leads to mold and dry-rot. A remodel is the right time to run proper ductwork to a roof or soffit vent.
- Septic proximity limits layout changes. Shifting a toilet, a shower drain, or a vanity on a septic system is not always possible without relocating the drain line. We check the septic as-built plan before we set a new layout, so you are not paying for a design that cannot pass inspection.

FAQs About Bathroom Remodeling in Wedgefield
Wedgefield has no natural gas lines, so all water heaters are electric. When walls come open during a remodel, the county inspector often flags an old 30-amp circuit as insufficient for a modern 50-amp tank or tankless unit. Upgrading that circuit is a prerequisite for passing inspection, and we include the line item in our written quote when we know the upgrade is needed. Call (850) 427-6454 for a free estimate, and we will check your panel during the walk-through.
We write it as a change order, price it in writing, and get your approval before the electrician touches it. That is the Kingswell Way. No hidden costs, no verbal surprises. The inspector signs off on the upgrade, and the work is covered under the same 365-Day Done Right Promise as the rest of the job.
We start with a moisture survey of the subfloor before demo, especially on slab-on-grade bathrooms. If the sandy base has wicked ground water, we install a waterproof membrane and sealed vapor barrier before rebuilding. Our shower pans get a proper pre-slope and liner, and every wet area gets cement board substrate, not drywall. That is the moisture-resistant layer behind your tile, and it is standard on every Wedgefield project.
It can. If you want to move the toilet or shower drain, the new drain line has to maintain proper fall to the septic tank. We check the as-built septic plan before finalizing the layout, and we do not set a new drain location that will not pass inspection. Most remodels that keep the fixtures in the same place cause no septic changes at all. Call (850) 427-6454 and we will walk through your specific setup.
Yes. Every shower remodel gets a permit, including a straightforward pan replacement. Orange County requires it, and the permit creates a record that the inspector verified the work. If a remodel is done without a permit and the shower later leaks through the second floor, your insurance company can deny the claim. We will not do unpermitted work, and we handle the inspection scheduling for you.
