Geography: residential single-family and condo bathrooms in Fort Myers, Cape Coral, North Fort Myers, Bonita Springs, Lehigh Acres, and Estero. Commercial and out-of-county projects are excluded.
Most Lee County bathroom remodel inquiries fall into one of five archetypes. Ranges are intentionally wide because actual price depends on slab condition, plumbing relocation, tile spec, and glass package.
Typical room: 60–100 sq ft. Timeline: 14–28 days. Planning range: roughly $18,000–$45,000+ depending on finishes and plumbing scope.
Typical footprint: 32–48 sq ft. Timeline: 6–12 days. Planning range: roughly $7,500–$18,000 for tile, pan, valve, glass, and waterproofing.
Remove a 60" alcove tub for a walk-in shower. Timeline: 7–14 days. Planning range: roughly $9,000–$22,000 by glass and curb vs. curbless.
Custom walk-in shower with linear drain and frameless glass. Timeline: 8–14 days. Planning range: roughly $10,000–$25,000 by tile and glass spec.
Grab-bar blocking, comfort-height vanity, curbless entry, or walk-in tub. Timeline: 5–15 days. Planning range: roughly $4,500–$28,000.
Among observed Lee County remodels, homeowners distribute across three rough material tiers. The mix is approximate and reflects Precision Bathrooms by Precision Aluminum project history rather than a public survey:
These are buckets, not precise market shares. The mix shifts month to month with season, neighborhood, and owner-occupied vs. resale-prep work.
Approximately one in three Lee County remodel inquiries includes at least one accessibility upgrade. The most common requests, by frequency:
The share trends higher in zip codes with older homeowner profiles. Accessibility scope is best discussed at the walkthrough so framing can be priced before tile is set.
Observed ranges from demo start to final walkthrough, excluding design phase, permit wait, and custom-glass lead time. Cure times for thinset, grout, and waterproofing are the most common reason a job extends beyond initial expectation.
| Project type | Typical days, demo to final walkthrough | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Full bathroom remodel | 14–28 days | Longer if layout changes or plumbing relocates |
| Shower-only remodel | 6–12 days | Tile waterproofing and curing drive the floor |
| Tub-to-shower conversion | 7–14 days | Curbless conversions add a few days for slab work |
| Walk-in shower install | 8–14 days | Custom glass adds 1–3 weeks of lead time off-site |
| Accessibility update | 5–15 days | Highly scope-dependent; grab-bar blocking alone is a 2–3 day visit |
Day counts are working days, not calendar days. Holiday weeks, special-order tile, and permit timing can extend the calendar without extending the working days.
Typical scope and cost shift by city because of housing stock, foundation type, and original plumbing rough-in. Any individual home can fall outside these patterns.
Fort Myers bathrooms span 1960s–1980s slab homes in downtown and Whiskey Creek, 1990s tract neighborhoods near Daniels Parkway, and newer Gateway construction. Older slab homes often need cast-iron or galvanized drain replacement, which can shift a cosmetic refresh into a mid-tier remodel by scope.
Cape Coral has a high share of 1980s–2000s slab homes with hall and primary bathrooms back-to-back. Plumbing relocation is more often feasible than in older Fort Myers homes. Tile and glass selections trend mid-range to premium in waterfront zips.
North Fort Myers includes older slab homes and manufactured-home replacements. Accessibility upgrades are requested more often than the county average. Vanity sizes trend smaller (30″–36″). Cost ranges typically center the lower-to-middle band.
Bonita Springs leans toward newer construction with some raised-foundation communities. Cost ranges trend mid-to-premium because larger primary bathrooms and double-vanity layouts are common.
Lehigh Acres inquiries skew toward full-room cosmetic refreshes on 1990s–2010s slab homes. In-place tub-to-shower conversion is the most frequent scope. Cost ranges sit in the lower-to-mid band.
Estero features newer construction with larger primary bathrooms and double vanities. Walk-in showers paired with free-standing tubs are the most-requested combination. Cost ranges trend mid-to-premium.
Two bathrooms of identical size can come in thousands apart based on the factors below. Most are scoped during the walkthrough.
The questions below address the methodology behind this page, how to use the data, and what to expect when scoping a real Lee County bathroom remodel.
Anonymized planning data from Precision Bathrooms by Precision Aluminum project history over a rolling 24-month window, plus current Lee County labor and material observations. Numbers are ranges, not a binding quote.
Bracket your planning budget and timeline before talking to a contractor. When you request a real estimate, share the scope so the walkthrough can confirm numbers for your home.
No labor-only quotes, no commercial bathrooms, no multifamily new construction, and nothing outside Lee County. Specialty work like steam showers, saunas, or whole-house re-plumbs sits outside these ranges.
Call (239) 673-8357 or visit the contact page. We’ll measure the room, check the rough-in, and follow up with a written scope and price.

Permit issuance varies by jurisdiction and season — plan for a few business days to a few weeks. Plumbing and electrical inspections add 1–2 days each.
Fort Myers, Cape Coral, North Fort Myers, Bonita Springs, Lehigh Acres, and Estero.
Plan for the upper end of the range and add a 10–15% contingency. Older slab homes often need drain or supply-line replacement once tile comes up.
