Fast, Reliable General Contractor Across Goulds
Bradford Remodeling handles general contracting and whole-home remodels across Goulds, FL, with written pricing before anything gets torn out. Our crews know the difference between a 1970s block home off SW 216th Street and a newer stucco build near the Redland, and we scope the job accordingly. Call (903) 568-7222 to schedule a walkthrough. We’ll give you a line-item price you can hold us to.
Goulds sits in unincorporated Miami-Dade County, so every permit runs through the county Building Department. That changes the schedule and the paper trail, and it means we plan inspections early instead of hoping they line up. A live person answers our phone 24/7, and the estimate is free.
Why Bradford Remodeling Is Goulds’s Preferred General Contractor Company
We’ve worked enough Goulds homes to know what hides behind the drywall: undersized floor joists, termite channels in old block, and subfloor rot from decades of humidity. Homeowners here don’t need a contractor who shows up for the estimate and disappears. They need a crew that reads the scope before bidding. That’s the discipline Curtis Lane runs every Bradford job with.
Our Goulds customers get a written price before work starts. No allowances that blow out, no change orders that show up after demo. The 365-Day Done Right Promise is written into every contract: if the work fails inside a year, we come back and correct it at no charge. That guarantee applies to kitchens, bathrooms, additions, and full-home remodels.
When you call, a real person picks up. When we schedule, the crew shows up in uniform and background-checked. You’ll know who’s walking through your door before they arrive, and you’ll know what they’re doing that day.
Styles & brands we work with
Construction Company in Goulds
Hiring a General Contractor in Goulds means one company takes responsibility for the whole job: permits, demo, rough-in, finish, and the final walkthrough. Bradford Remodeling acts as the prime contractor on every project, which means we coordinate the trades and carry the schedule. If a subcontractor is late or a material shows up wrong, that’s our problem to fix, not yours to chase.
Most construction work in Goulds starts with the existing house telling us what it can and can’t support. A 1970s block home near 112th Avenue may have a load-bearing wall the current owner doesn’t know about. A kitchen gut can expose a subfloor that’s been wicking moisture for 30 years. We find that before we quote, not after you’ve already signed.
Site conditions dictate the real number. A home addition in Goulds runs $45,000 – $130,000 depending on foundation type, roof tie-in, and septic capacity. A garage conversion runs $30,000 – $80,000 and often triggers a DERM review because the property is on septic.
Site Preparation
We pull the county permit, mark utilities, and protect the areas we’re not touching. Floors get covered, dust barriers go up, and the dumpster is placed with county street rules in mind. Goulds lots vary, so we confirm access for trucks and material delivery before day one.
Structural Work
If joists are undersized, we sister them. If the block wall has cracked from settlement, we address it before finish work. Skipping this step means cabinets and tile fail within a year. The 365-Day Done Right Promise covers what we rebuild, so we don’t leave suspect structure behind new drywall.
Remodeling Contractor in Goulds
A Remodeling Contractor takes an existing room and rebuilds it to a new spec. In Goulds, that usually means kitchens, bathrooms, and enclosed spaces that need new layout, new systems, or both. Bradford Remodeling runs these projects as planned renovations: fixed scope, fixed price, written guarantee at close.
The typical Goulds kitchen remodel runs $14,000 – $45,000. That range moves with cabinet line, countertop material, and whether we’re moving the sink or keeping the existing plumbing. A bathroom remodel runs $9,000 – $28,000, and a walk-in shower installation runs $4,500 – $12,000. We price these with the actual brand names you choose, not a vague allowance.
Kitchen Remodels
We tear out to the studs when the house needs it, then rebuild with KraftMaid or Wellborn cabinets, Cambria or Caesarstone surfaces, and Kohler or Moen fixtures. Every line item is written before demo. If you want a concrete countertop with a Sakrete-based form, we’ll price that as an option and tell you the cure time honestly.
Bathroom Remodels
A tub-to-shower conversion runs $3,500 – $10,000 and is one of the highest-value updates in older Goulds homes. We check the subfloor, the venting, and the water pressure before we quote. If the home is on well water, we test flow rate so the new shower actually delivers what the spec promises.
Trusted Brands We Service in Goulds
We work with documented brands, not whatever the supply house has on clearance. KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinetry, Cambria and Silestone surfaces, Kohler and Moen fixtures, GAF roofing, James Hardie siding, Therma-Tru doors, Belgard hardscaping. We also quote modular and prefab options from Abodu, Cover, and Dvele when a Goulds homeowner wants a faster ADU build and the lot can support it. Manufacturer specs and warranties back every install, and we keep the paperwork with the project file so you have it at close.

AfterCommon General Contractor Problems We See in Goulds Homes
- Hidden subfloor rot. Older Goulds homes built on slab or raised foundations often have plywood that’s been swelling for decades near the sink or tub. We find it during demo and replace it with exterior-grade plywood before finish work.
- Undersized framing. A 1970s block home can have 2×6 floor joists spanning farther than they should. We sister or replace joists as needed, then document the change in writing so the price never moves without your signature.
- Septic system conflicts. Many Goulds homes are on septic and well water. Adding a bathroom or kitchen sink can push the fixture count past what the existing drainfield handles. We coordinate with DERM early so we’re not opening walls twice.
- Unpermitted prior work. We’ve opened walls in Goulds and found electrical or plumbing work that never passed inspection. Brad Remodeling brings it to code and pulls the county permit so your project doesn’t inherit someone else’s shortcut.

FAQs About General Contractor in Goulds
Yes. Goulds is unincorporated Miami-Dade County, so all structural, electrical, plumbing, and mechanical work requires a county permit through the Miami-Dade Building Department. We pull the permit for you, schedule the inspections, and keep the sign-off record for final close. If your home is on septic, the county may also require a DERM capacity check before sign-off. Call (903) 568-7222 and we’ll tell you exactly which permits apply to your scope.
A full kitchen remodel in Goulds runs 6 – 10 weeks depending on scope. Cabinet lead time is often the longest line item, especially for KraftMaid or Wellborn orders. County inspection scheduling can add days, and septic capacity review through DERM can extend the rough-in window. We build the calendar with those delays in mind and update you as each inspection clears.
We carry the whole job: permit application, demo, structural repair, rough-in, finish carpentry, paint, and final inspection. We coordinate the electrician, plumber, and any specialty trade. You get one point of contact and one written contract, and Curtis Lane’s crew runs the site until the job is squared away.
A bathroom remodel in Goulds runs $9,000 – $28,000. The biggest cost drivers are whether we move plumbing, what tile and fixtures you choose, and whether the subfloor needs replacement. A walk-in shower installation alone runs $4,500 – $12,000. Every price is written before demo, with no allowance games. Call (903) 568-7222 for a line-item quote.
Often, yes. Adding a bedroom or bathroom increases the fixture count, and Miami-Dade DERM may require the existing septic system to be assessed for capacity. We pull the county permit and coordinate the DERM review before we close up walls. If the drainfield can’t support the addition, we’ll tell you early and price the upgrade honestly.
