Bathroom Remodeling in Sarasota & Manatee County
Kirkplan Kitchen & Bath provides bathroom remodeling in Sarasota and throughout Manatee County, from tub-to-shower conversions and vanity refacing to complete bathroom renovations. As a licensed general contractor for 27 years, we handle everything under one roof: design, demolition, plumbing and electrical work, tile, countertops, glass and final installation. You get one team, one point of contact and a bathroom built to handle Florida humidity for years to come.
A great bathroom should feel calm, work smoothly every morning and stay beautiful in a climate that is hard on materials. Whether you want a simple refresh or a completely new layout, we design around how you actually use the room, then build it with materials chosen for high-moisture Florida homes.
Our Bathroom Remodeling Services
Bathroom Remodeling Built for Florida Homes
Bathrooms in Sarasota and Manatee County face constant humidity, and that changes what lasts. Every bathroom we build accounts for it:
· Moisture-ready materials. We use porcelain, ceramic and natural stone tile chosen for wet areas, and non-porous countertops like quartz.
· Proper waterproofing behind tile in showers and wet zones.
· Ventilation that does its job, so moisture leaves the room instead of settling into grout and cabinetry.
· Safety built into the design. Slip-resistant flooring, low-threshold showers and layouts that work at every stage of life.
· Permits handled correctly. Moving plumbing or electrical often requires a permit. Our permit guide for Sarasota and Manatee bathroom remodeling explains what to expect.
Featured Projects
This project came to Kirkplan through our sister company Coastal Granite. Coastal Granite completed the fabrication, and from there they reached out to us to do the installations. Because of our close relationship with Coastal Granite…
This project started with a young couple ready to create a home that could grow with their family. Their existing space felt dated and closed off, making everyday living a challenge. Their goal was a space that is updated with current trends but also reflected their personal style.

Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly is a "tub-to-shower" conversion?
It is one of our most popular services for homeowners looking to modernize their space. We remove your high-sided bathtub and replace it with a sleek, walk-in shower. This not only opens up the footprint of your bathroom but also provides a safer, more accessible bathing experience with a low-entry threshold.
Is bathroom refacing an option, or do I have to replace everything?
If your current cabinet boxes are in good structural shape, bathroom refacing is a fantastic way to refresh the space. We replace the vanity doors, drawer fronts, and hardware to give your bathroom an entirely new aesthetic, such as a modern floating look or a classic coastal style, without the need for a full demolition.
Do you provide and install shower glass doors?
Yes. We believe the right glass can be the “jewelry” of a bathroom. We offer custom shower glass door installations, ranging from framed to seamless frameless options. Our goal is to ensure the glass complements your new tile work while providing a watertight, easy-to-clean finish.
Can you move plumbing fixtures to change my bathroom layout?
Absolutely. Our expertise covers full demolition and build work. If your current layout feels cramped, we can handle the plumbing and electrical re-routing required to move your vanity, toilet, or shower to a more functional location. We take care of the technical side so you can focus on the design.
What types of flooring and wall tiles can I choose from?
We offer an extensive selection of porcelain, ceramic, and natural stone tiles. Whether you want large-format tiles for a seamless look, intricate mosaic accents in the shower, or slip-resistant flooring for safety, our designers will help you select the right materials that hold up beautifully in high-moisture environments.
How do I choose the right countertop for a bathroom vanity?
Durability is key in a bathroom. We recommend non-porous surfaces like quartz or high-quality granite that resist water spots and daily wear. During your consultation, we can show you samples of different stones and finishes at our showrooms to find a look that matches your cabinetry and tile.
Do I need to hire my own plumber or electrician?
No, you can leave that to us. Kirkplan manages the entire project from start to finish. Our team handles the demolition, the technical plumbing and electrical work, and the final installations. This “all-in-one” approach ensures your project runs smoothly and meets our high standards for quality.
Do I need a permit to remodel my bathroom in Sarasota or Manatee County?
Often, yes, especially if plumbing, electrical or walls are changing. As a licensed general contractor, we handle permitting for you. Learn more in our Sarasota and Manatee permit guide.
Where can I see your work and material samples in person?
