"Complete gut of the master bath in our golf-estate home in The Oaks Clubside. CMK pulled the Sarasota County permit, scheduled every inspection, and passed each one the first time. The oversized walk-in shower with frameless glass made the whole house feel newer."
Built for the Way Osprey Homes Actually Live
Osprey's homes run the full range, and few of their bathrooms were designed for the way owners live today. The deed-restricted homes across Southbay, Rivendell, and Willowbend still carry their builder-grade baths, fiberglass tub-and-shower combos, cultured-marble tops, and dated tile. The gated golf estates in The Oaks and the bayfront boating homes on Little Sarasota Bay hold decades of Florida humidity behind their tile. And longtime Osprey homeowners often need a safer, more accessible bath that still feels like a retreat.
CMK Construction has been transforming Osprey bathrooms for over two decades. We know the finishes that survive Florida humidity near the bay, the tub-to-shower conversions and curbless entries that make a bath safer to age in, and the permit process through Sarasota County Building & Permitting. From a simple tub-to-shower conversion to a full spa master suite, we've done it all.

Built Right for Florida Humidity and Osprey Homes.
Bathrooms fail faster in Florida. Humidity works on every grout line, and the deed-restricted homes of Southbay, Rivendell, and Willowbend have usually been sealed up behind builder-grade tile since the 1980s. The gated golf estates in The Oaks are a different story, with higher finish expectations and HOA architectural review, while the bayfront boating homes along Little Sarasota Bay take the brunt of the humidity and longtime Osprey homeowners need a bath that is safer to age in.
CMK plans for all of it before demo. Near the water, that means finishes built for humidity while converting unused fiberglass tub-and-shower combos into walk-in showers. For owners staying put, it means curbless entries, grab bars, and bench seating that keep a bath usable for the long term. In the gated golf estates of The Oaks, it usually means a full spa master: freestanding tub, oversized shower, double vanity.
Every bathroom CMK remodels gets Schluter waterproofing under every tile. It's a lifetime-warrantied membrane that many contractors skip, and it's the single biggest difference between a bathroom that lasts 30 years and one that starts leaking in 10, especially in Florida humidity.
- ✓ Hundreds of completed bathrooms in 34229, 34275, 34272, and 34285
- ✓ Schluter waterproofing on every tile installation, warranted for life
- ✓ Licensed plumbers (CFC 1430533) on every project
- ✓ Accessible design options (roll-in, grab bars, zero threshold)
- ✓ Familiar with Sarasota County Building & Permitting and HOA architectural review

Osprey Bathroom Remodel Reviews
Real reviews from Osprey bathroom remodel clients across The Oaks, Southbay, Rivendell, Willowbend, and the Little Sarasota Bay waterfront.
"Tub-to-shower conversion in our Southbay home, finished in four weeks like they promised. Our project manager Nick explained the Schluter waterproofing before any tile went up, and the new shower looks like it came out of a magazine."
"Our bayfront home on Little Sarasota Bay had taken on years of Florida humidity. CMK rebuilt the bathroom with Schluter waterproofing, a floating vanity, and a curbless shower with a linear drain. The room feels twice as big and finally holds up to the humidity."
"Spa master bath in our Rivendell home. Freestanding tub, oversized walk-in shower, double vanity. The showroom visit made every selection easy, and the finished room is the best part of the house now."
"Condo bathroom at Meridian in The Oaks Preserve, full remodel. CMK handled the association approvals and recommended fixtures and finishes that fit the building, which we never would have thought about. Frameless glass, new tile floor to ceiling, and not a single surprise on the invoice."
"We remodeled our Willowbend bathroom so we can stay in this house as we age. CMK converted the old tub to a curbless walk-in shower with a bench, anchored the grab bars into solid blocking, and it looks like a spa, not a hospital. Could not be happier."
What to Ask Before Hiring a Bathroom Remodeler in Osprey
Bathrooms are the single most common place a remodel goes wrong years after it finishes, almost always because of how the shower was waterproofed. These are the questions worth asking any Osprey contractor before signing a contract, with any company, not just CMK.
-
What waterproofing system do you use behind the tile?
Why it matters: This is the single biggest difference between a 5-year bathroom and a 30-year bathroom. Osprey's Florida humidity destroys low-grade waterproofing.
Good answer: A name-brand sheet membrane system (Schluter-KERDI, Wedi, or equivalent) installed under every tile, with the manufacturer's lifetime warranty in writing. -
Are you licensed and insured in Florida?
Why it matters: Unlicensed contractors can void your homeowner's insurance and leave you personally liable for code violations.
Good answer: A state-issued CGC license number on every estimate, plus a CFC plumbing license on file. CMK is CGC 1516665 with plumbing under CFC 1430533. -
Do you pull all permits, or do I?
Why it matters: Homeowner-pulled permits make you personally liable for code compliance, not the contractor.
Good answer: The contractor pulls every Sarasota County permit, handles HOA architectural-review paperwork where it applies, and schedules every inspection at no extra charge. -
Who manages my project day-to-day?
Why it matters: Without a named project manager, you'll spend the build chasing updates from a salesperson who's already moved on.
Good answer: A named PM, a real person you can call, who visits the job multiple times per week and communicates daily. -
What's your warranty, and what does it cover?
Why it matters: "We stand behind our work" is not a warranty. Get it in writing, especially on waterproofing.
Good answer: A written warranty on workmanship and materials, plus a separate manufacturer warranty on the waterproofing membrane. CMK's Peace of Mind Warranty covers both. -
Can I see your showroom and pick tile, vanities, and fixtures in person?
Why it matters: Tile and stone look completely different in catalog photos than they do in real samples under real lighting.
Good answer: A real showroom where you handle tile samples, vanity finishes, fixtures, and shower glass before anything is ordered. The 4,000 sq ft CMK Design Studio on Clark Road in Sarasota is open to active clients.
