Seminole Heights's Trusted Bathroom Contractor

Built for the Way Seminole Heights Homes Actually Function

Most Seminole Heights homes are 1920s and 1930s Craftsman bungalows, and their bathrooms are usually the smallest, most dated room in the house: cramped original layouts, a single tub-and-shower combo, worn tile, and fixtures that have quietly aged in place for decades. The bungalows along the Hillsborough River in Old Seminole Heights, the historic homes in South and Southeast Seminole Heights, and the cottages of Hampton Terrace all share the same story, a home full of character waiting for a bathroom that finally matches it.

CMK Construction has been transforming Seminole Heights bathrooms for over two decades. We know how to open a tiny original bungalow bath into a high-end spa master suite, convert a cramped tub-and-shower combo into an open walk-in shower, and design an accessible curbless shower for aging in place, all with period-respectful finishes. We handle the City of Tampa permits and any Old Seminole Heights historic-district paperwork so you never have to. From a single shower update to a full primary suite, we've done it all.

Why CMK for Seminole Heights Specifically

Built Right for Florida Humidity and Seminole Heights Homes.

Seminole Heights grew up in the 1920s along the Hillsborough River, and its bathrooms show their age. The bungalows in Old Seminole Heights and South Seminole Heights, the historic homes of Hampton Terrace and Southeast Seminole Heights, and the cottages near North Florida Avenue all share the same original baths: a single cramped tub-and-shower combo, worn tile, and fixtures that have not aged well in Florida humidity. The homes are full of character. The bathrooms are simply due for an update.

CMK plans for all of it before demo. In the smaller bungalows, that often means opening a cramped original bath into a walk-in shower with a floating vanity and tile that makes the room feel bigger, using period-respectful finishes like hex or subway tile. In the larger homes, it usually means a full spa master suite: freestanding tub, oversized shower, double vanity, and high-end finishes throughout. And for homeowners planning to stay, we design accessible, curbless walk-in showers for aging in place that look like a spa, not a hospital.

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's relentless humidity.

  • Hundreds of completed bathrooms across Seminole Heights's 33603, 33604, and 33610 neighborhoods
  • 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 City of Tampa permitting and Old Seminole Heights historic-district approvals

What Seminole Heights Homeowners Say

Seminole Heights Bathroom Remodel Reviews

Real reviews from Seminole Heights bathroom remodel clients across Old Seminole Heights, South Seminole Heights, Southeast Seminole Heights, Hampton Terrace, Riverside Heights, and Tampa Heights.

★★★★★

"We updated the tiny original bathroom in our 1920s Old Seminole Heights bungalow and it is a completely different room. CMK worked cleanly in a tight historic home, respected the character of the house, and passed every City of Tampa inspection the first time. The walk-in shower with frameless glass made the whole bath feel new."

Cheryl A.
Seminole Heights · Old Seminole Heights
★★★★★

"Tub-to-shower conversion in our South Seminole Heights bungalow, 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. They protected our historic hardwood floors the whole way through."

Don & Pat H.
Seminole Heights · South Seminole Heights
★★★★★

"Our original 1930s bathroom in Southeast Seminole Heights felt dated and cramped. CMK reconfigured the layout with a floating vanity and a curbless shower with a linear drain, and the room feels twice as big. Smart design, clean work, high-end finishes throughout."

Maria G.
Seminole Heights · Southeast Seminole Heights
★★★★★

"Spa master bath in our Hampton Terrace home off North Central Avenue. Freestanding tub, oversized walk-in shower, double vanity. The showroom made every selection easy, and the finished room is the best part of the house now."

Robert F.
Seminole Heights · Hampton Terrace
★★★★★

"Riverside Heights master bath, full remodel. CMK updated our dated original bath with high-end tile, frameless glass, and a new floating vanity. The Schluter waterproofing gives us real peace of mind in Florida humidity, and there was not a single surprise on the invoice."

Janice K.
Seminole Heights · Riverside Heights
★★★★★

"We remodeled our Tampa Heights bathroom so we can stay in this house as we age. CMK built 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."

Vet Your Contractor

What to Ask Before Hiring a Bathroom Remodeler in Seminole Heights

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 Seminole Heights 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. Florida's relentless humidity destroys budget 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 City of Tampa permit, handles any historic-district 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 W. Hillsborough Ave is open to active clients.

Common Questions

Seminole Heights Bathroom Remodeling FAQ

Answers to the questions Seminole Heights homeowners ask us most often about timeline, permits, historic-district approvals, waterproofing, and what's included.

Every CMK bathroom is built with the Schluter-KERDI waterproofing system installed under all tile. Schluter carries a lifetime manufacturer warranty when installed by certified contractors, which we are. No paint-on membranes, no skipped steps. It is the single biggest difference between a bathroom that lasts 30 years and one that starts leaking in 10, especially in Florida's relentless humidity.
Cosmetic bathroom updates typically take 2-3 weeks. A standard mid-range remodel with new tile and a walk-in shower conversion runs 3-6 weeks. Full master bath remodels with new plumbing and a complete gut take 6-10 weeks, and remodels on older Seminole Heights bungalows can add time for outdated plumbing, plaster walls, and material lead times. Your dedicated project manager provides a complete schedule before demo starts and communicates with you daily throughout the build.
Yes. Seminole Heights is part of the City of Tampa, so any bathroom remodel involving plumbing or electrical work is permitted through the City of Tampa Construction Services Center, and homes in the Old Seminole Heights Local Historic District can require Architectural Review Commission approval for qualifying exterior changes. CMK Construction handles all city permitting, any historic-district paperwork, and inspections on your behalf at no extra charge. You will never need to visit the permit office.
Yes. Much of Seminole Heights sits within the Old Seminole Heights Local Historic District. Interior bathroom work rarely triggers design review, but any exterior change, such as a new window or exhaust vent, goes through the City of Tampa Architectural Review Commission. We prepare and submit every permit and any required historic-review paperwork, coordinate access on tight historic lots, and protect original hardwood, plaster, and trim throughout the build. You sign the forms; we handle the rest.
Yes. Tub-to-shower conversions are one of our most-requested projects in Seminole Heights. We remove the existing tub, reframe the plumbing rough-in, install Schluter waterproofing, and build a walk-in shower (curbless or curbed) with frameless glass and floor-to-ceiling tile. Most conversions finish in 3 to 4 weeks.
Yes. After your project begins you will walk through the 4,000 sq ft CMK Design Studio at CMK's Tampa location, about 15 to 20 minutes west of Seminole Heights on W. Hillsborough Avenue, to see and touch every tile sample, vanity option, fixture, and finish before construction starts. Nothing is ordered until you approve it in person.
