Fast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across Fleming Island
A full bathroom remodel in Fleming Island typically costs between $9,000 and $28,000, with smaller projects like a tub-to-shower conversion running $3,500 to $10,000. Most permits here take longer than homeowners expect because many of Fleming Island’s master-planned communities require HOA architectural review before Clay County will even look at the application. That’s the part nobody tells you until you’re three weeks into waiting. We’re Elmstead Remodeling Jacksonville, and we’ve navigated that process enough times to build it into our schedule from day one, not as an afterthought. If you’re planning a bathroom remodel in Fleming Island, call us at (904) 643-6243 for a written estimate before any work begins.
Why Elmstead Remodeling Jacksonville Is Fleming Island’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
Homeowners in Fleming Island call us because we show up knowing their neighborhood. We know that Eagle Harbor has its own architectural review committee with a specific application packet, that Fleming Island Plantation requires elevation drawings for anything touching an exterior wall, and that certain phases near Doctors Lake have stricter moisture-control expectations from the county. That local knowledge keeps your project moving instead of stalling at the permit counter.
Our crews work in Fleming Island every week. We stock moisture-rated drywall, Schluter waterproofing membrane, and high-CFM exhaust fans that meet code for humid subtropical bathrooms like yours. We answer the phone live, 24/7, and we quote a written price before any work starts, so you know the number won’t move after the crew arrives. If a bathroom remodel in Fleming Island isn’t done right, our Bathroom Remodeling team comes back and makes it right under the 365-Day Done Right Promise. That promise is stamped on every project we complete.
Styles & brands we work with
Small Bathroom Remodel in Fleming Island
A small bathroom remodel in Fleming Island homes built in the 1990s and 2000s usually means replacing a builder-grade vanity, dated tile, and a fiberglass tub surround without moving any walls. It runs $5,000 to $12,000 depending on whether you’re keeping the footprint or reconfiguring the layout. Many of the homes we see in neighborhoods off Highway 220 have compact guest baths and kids’ baths under 60 square feet. The biggest cost driver in those rooms is not size, it’s whether the floor is slab-on-grade, which most of Fleming Island is, and whether your HOA requires a plumbing-review submission even for moving a fixture of two feet.
Vanity, Tile, and Fixture Replacement
When the vanity gets replaced, we frame the quote around what you pick: cabinets from KraftMaid or Wellborn, countertops from Silestone or Cambria. You research the brands, check the warranties, and the written price reflects exactly what you chose.
Flooring and Moisture Control
In a small guest bath that kids use daily, water gets on the floor. Always. So we recommend porcelain tile over vinyl plank in these rooms, and we insist on a proper exhaust fan upgrade if the current one is under 80 CFM. In Fleming Island’s humidity, that matters more than the tile color.
Shower Remodel in Fleming Island
A shower remodel in Fleming Island runs $3,000 to $12,000 depending on scope, with a straightforward shower replacement on the lower end and a full walk-in shower installation with frameless glass on the higher end. This is the section where we see the most repeat patterns across Eagle Harbor and Fleming Island Plantation: cracked fiberglass pans, mold behind loose wall tile, and homeowners who want to age in place without leaving the island. A Fleming Island shower remodel normally takes 3 to 7 working days once materials arrive and permits clear.
Tub-to-Shower Conversion
Converting a tub to a walk-in shower in Fleming Island costs $3,500 to $10,000. The big variable is whether the drain needs to be relocated in the slab, which on a peninsula with a high water table means careful core drilling, not guesswork. We do this work often enough that our crews know which slab conditions under Fleming Island homes require extra waterproofing at the pan.
Frameless Glass and Curbless Design
A frameless glass shower enclosure in Fleming Island starts around $1,200 as part of a larger remodel. Curbless entries are increasingly common in master suites and in homes where the owners plan to stay long-term. We build the slope into the shower pan and waterproof everything with Schluter membrane, so the finished floor transitions cleanly and drains properly.
Trusted Brands We Service in Fleming Island
Most Fleming Island homeowners want to know what brands are going into the bathroom before signing. We work with manufacturer partners whose warranties you can verify yourself: KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinets, Cambria and Silestone countertops, Kohler, Moen, and Grohe fixtures, plus CGI and ECO Window Systems when a bathroom window needs replacing as part of the job. When we order materials for a Fleming Island project, we confirm local stock and lead times before we put it in writing. That keeps your timeline real.

AfterCommon Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Fleming Island Homes
- Slab settling around drains. Fleming Island sits on organic soils and a high water table. Subtle movement in the concrete slab shows up first as hairline cracks around the tub drain or shower pan. We see it most often in homes built in the early 2000s in Fleming Island Plantation.
- HOA stop-work orders. In neighborhoods like Eagle Harbor, starting a bathroom remodel without architectural committee approval can get the job shut down and fined. We submit the full packet before demo day, not after.
- Mold behind non-moisture-rated drywall. The humidity here doesn’t quit. Bathrooms remodeled with standard drywall instead of green board or cement board grow mold inside the walls. We see it when we open up walls during remodels.
- Skipping the exhaust fan upgrade. A 50 CFM builder-grade fan can’t clear a shower’s moisture in a Fleming Island summer. We include a properly sized fan in every bathroom quote because it’s cheaper than mold remediation later.

FAQs About Bathroom Remodeling in Fleming Island
Yes. Fleming Island Plantation’s architectural review committee requires approval for bathroom remodels that touch plumbing or any exterior wall, and the application commonly takes two to four weeks. We prepare and submit the packet as part of our scope, and we don’t start demo until you have the signed approval in hand. Call (904) 643-6243 and we’ll tell you exactly what your committee needs.
A tub-to-shower conversion in Eagle Harbor typically runs $3,500 to $10,000. The range is wide because Eagle Harbor homes include a mix of slab and raised foundations, and relocating a drain in slab costs more. We’ll give you a written line-item quote before work starts.
First, confirm what the builder warranty actually covers, then do not let anyone cut structural members or alter original plumbing without a permit. Unpermitted work is the fastest way to void a warranty. We pull permits on every Fleming Island bathroom remodel where they’re required and we document the work with photos, which also helps if you sell the home later.
Fleming Island sits in a humid subtropical zone between the St. Johns River and Doctors Lake. Bathrooms here face year-round moisture stress, not just during the wet season. We use moisture-rated drywall, cement board in wet zones, Schluter membrane at shower pans and walls, and a properly sized exhaust fan so the room dries between uses. Skipping any of these shows up as mold within a few years.
No. Waterfront homes on Doctors Lake or the St. Johns River often carry stricter county review, especially if the work touches walls near the water side or involves drainage. Some projects also need coordination with the St. Johns River Water Management District. We handle the permit and coordination work as part of the job. Call (904) 643-6243 with your address and we’ll tell you what applies.
