We are Bradford Remodeling, and we are the contractor Fountainebleau homeowners call when they want the price in writing before a single tool comes out. Every job carries a 365-Day Done Right Promise and a live person answers at (903) 568-7222, day or night. If you live off SW 8th Street or in one of the condo communities near the Fountainebleau Golf Course, we know what your building is made of, and we know what it takes to remodel it correctly.
What Fountainebleau Home Remodeling Actually Involves
Fountainebleau’s housing stock sits mostly in the 1960s and 1970s: concrete-block ranches, low-rise condos, and a handful of villas. That matters more than most homeowners realize. When you open up a wall in a wood-framed house, you find studs. When you open up an exterior wall in a Fountainebleau block home, you find furring strips nailed to the block, which changes how cabinets get anchored, how tile substrate goes down, and how impact windows are flashed. A contractor who bids your job off photos and shows up expecting stick framing is going to have a problem. We scope for block construction from the first walkthrough.
Our Home Remodeling team also coordinates every trade that touches the job: structural, rough-in, tile, cabinets, counters, finish. That means one written scope, one schedule, and one company accountable for the whole thing. For Fountainebleau homeowners who have been burned by no-shows and re-priced change orders, that accountability is the difference between a remodel that finishes and one that lingers for months.

Why Bradford Remodeling Is Fountainebleau’s Preferred Home Remodeling Company
We are members of the Garrison Partners family, held to The Garrison Standard since Bradford joined in 2004. That standard is simple: a written price before any work starts, background-checked and uniformed technicians on every job, and a 365-Day Done Right Promise on every project we complete. If our work fails within that year, we come back and correct it at no charge. Not a pro-rated credit. Not a callback fee. The guarantee is written and signed at close, along with the full scope.
Fountainebleau homeowners deal with specific realities: condo association work rules, older block construction, and permits that have to be pulled before the rough-in can even start inspection. We have worked through all three enough times to know where the paperwork lives and how long it takes. When you call (903) 568-7222 to Fountainebleau scheduling, you speak to a live person, not a queue. That is The Garrison Code, and we do not waive it.
Curtis Lane, who leads Bradford Remodeling, has built this team around a single habit: write everything down before the money moves. The result is a crew that acts like the job is already squared away, because the scope, the price, and the guarantee are on paper from day one.
Home Remodeling Contractor in Fountainebleau
A Home Remodeling Contractor in Fountainebleau handles the whole build: demolition, structural work, rough-in, finishes, and the final walkthrough. What sets our crews apart here is that the scope is built for block construction. Furring strips, slab drains, and concrete tie beams are not surprises to us, they are the starting assumptions. Fountainebleau homeowners call when they want a kitchen opened up, a bathroom rebuilt, or a garage converted into living space, and they want a contractor who has already worked through those building conditions in this exact neighborhood.
Costs for the most common scopes: a full kitchen remodel here runs $14,000 to $45,000, a bathroom $9,000 to $28,000, and a garage conversion $30,000 to $80,000. Every job gets a written line-item price before work starts.
Block-Wall Anchoring and Prep
In Fountainebleau’s 1960s and 1970s block homes, cabinets and heavy tile cannot simply screw into drywall. We evaluate the furring, add blocking where needed, and square the walls before finish materials arrive. In one 1968 ranch off SW 8th Street near the Fountainebleau Golf Course turn, our crew found the exterior block walls nearly an inch out of plumb over 12 feet. We furred and squared them before templating the KraftMaid cabinets and Cambria countertops. Had we templated first, every joint would have fought us.
Slab Rough-In and Drain Routing
Many Fountainebleau homes have cast-in-slab drains. Moving a sink even four feet can mean cutting concrete and re-routing the drain, which requires a plumbing rough-in inspection. We identify those conditions in the bid, not after demo. If the cooktop or island sink moves, the price reflects the slab work from the start.
Home Renovation in Fountainebleau
Home Renovation in Fountainebleau means more than swapping finishes. It means correcting the underlying structure, sill plates, and wall plumb before new surfaces go in, especially in the older concrete-block inventory. A renovation here often includes impact window or door replacement, new flooring over slab or terrazzo, kitchen reconfiguration, and bath rebuilds. Because the housing stock is old enough that original materials are past their service life, renovation scopes tend to include substrate repair that a newer house would not need.
Expect a small kitchen remodel in Fountainebleau to land between $9,000 and $20,000, and a small bath between $5,000 and $12,000. A whole-home renovation on a block ranch typically starts around $45,000 and can climb past $130,000 once structural work, electrical, and full cabinetry are included.
Impact Windows and Block Openings
Replacing windows in Fountainebleau block walls is not a pop-out swap. The rough opening has to be evaluated, flashed correctly against masonry, and sealed to keep water from wicking into the furring. We coordinate impact window installation with the structural review and exterior finish work. The range for impact windows here runs $8,000 to $25,000 on most homes, with window replacement alone $4,500 to $15,000.
Flooring Over Slab and Terrazzo
Many Fountainebleau homes still have original terrazzo floors, and some have slab moisture that will telegraph through new flooring if the substrate is not addressed. We specify moisture barriers and leveling compound when the slab tests wet, and we document it in the written scope. That is the kind of detail that prevents a floor failure six months after the job closes.
Trusted Brands We Service in Fountainebleau
Our crews work with a documented roster of materials, not whatever is on sale at the supplier. That means KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinetry, Cambria and Caesarstone surfaces, Kohler and Moen fixtures, and James Hardie or GAF exterior products. For prefab and panelized work, we can also coordinate with manufacturers like Cover, Dvele, or Abodu where a homeowner wants a factory-built component. Because each brand carries manufacturer specs and warranties, what we install in Fountainebleau is traceable from the shop to the signed close-out.

AfterCommon Home Remodeling Problems We See in Fountainebleau Homes
- Bids priced off photos, not block walls. A contractor quotes a kitchen without seeing the furring depth or slab drain location. When demo opens the wall, the price moves. Our written scope includes a site walk and slab assessment before the number is final.
- Change-order fights over cast-in-slab drains. A homeowner says “move the sink a little,” then the plumber finds the drain cast in concrete. In Fountainebleau, that reroute means concrete cutting, a new trap location, and a rough-in inspection. We price it up front when the scope shows a sink move.
- Condo and villa association stalls. Fountainebleau’s older condo buildings have rules on work hours, dumpster placement, elevator use, and even material delivery windows. A scope that ignores those rules stalls at the punch list. We review the association documents during estimating and build those constraints into the schedule.
- Tile substrate failure on block walls. Exterior walls here are not flat. Tile set directly over out-of-plumb block or old adhesive fails at the corners and edges. We square the substrate or replace it before tile goes in, and we note it in the line items.

FAQs About Home Remodeling in Fountainebleau
Yes, any kitchen or bathroom remodel that moves plumbing, alters load-bearing walls, or changes electrical circuits requires a permit in Fountainebleau. We pull the permits, schedule the inspections, and close them out before the final walkthrough. No permit means no signed guarantee, and it can also complicate a future sale. Call (903) 568-7222 and we will tell you which permits your specific scope triggers.
Because two kitchens that look alike can sit on very different bones. One may have cast-in-slab drains, furring strips that need blocking, and an out-of-plumb block wall, while the other is clean and square. The low bid usually omits the substrate, slab, and structural work. Our written quote includes those conditions because we walk the job before pricing. Call (903) 568-7222 to schedule a site walk.
A kitchen remodel in Fountainebleau typically runs 6 to 10 weeks from demo to final walkthrough, and a bathroom 3 to 6 weeks, assuming permits clear on schedule. Condo projects can add time for association approvals on work hours and material delivery. The schedule goes in the written scope, and we build in inspection lead times. Call (903) 568-7222 and we will give you a date range for your specific job.
Only a scope change you approve in writing. If we open a wall and find rotten furring or a slab drain we could not have seen before demo, you get a documented change order with a specific number and a signature line before any new work starts. The original written price stays fixed unless you sign something new. That discipline is part of The Garrison Standard. Call (903) 568-7222 and we will walk you through how change orders work.
Yes, we remodel condos and villas in Fountainebleau, and we handle association compliance as part of the scope. That means work-hour windows, elevator and dumpster scheduling, and material delivery rules get built into the project plan before we price the job. We will review your association documents during estimating. Call (903) 568-7222 to discuss your building’s requirements.
