Bathroom remodeling in St. Augustine, FL
Bathrooms, showers and tubs in St. Augustine. Call and say what you want changed, in English or Spanish.
St. Augustine has the widest range of bathrooms on this site. Houses in the Historic District and Lincolnville date from the 1880s to the 1920s, some with bathrooms added decades after they were built. Davis Shores and Anastasia Island are 1950s and 1960s ranches with original tile, and World Golf Village and the county subdivisions are 2000s builder baths.
In the historic districts, the Historic Architectural Review Board reviews exterior changes, which can include a bathroom window. Inside the house the work is regular permitted work. Matthew and Irma both flooded the low streets around Matanzas Bay, and Davis Shores in particular has rebuilt bathrooms after both.
