Opa-locka is a city like no other — Moorish arches, domes and themed streets you won't find anywhere else in South Florida. Your bathroom deserves that same attention to craft. We measure, fabricate and install every enclosure in-house, never subcontracted, using Florida-code tempered safety glass and hardware in your chosen finish. A flush fit against the tile, finishes that hold up to the humidity, and work built to last. From the historic district's distinctive blocks to the residential streets beyond, we build it right.
Every job measured, cut & installed by our own in-house licensed team.
Backed by a written workmanship warranty — we stand behind every install.
Honest, itemized quotes before any work begins. No pressure, no surprises.
When our crew arrives at your Opa-locka home, here's what you can count on — every visit, every time, no exceptions.
Every Opa-locka bath has its own character. We fit glass to your exact opening and finish it in hardware that matches your fixtures — chrome, brass or matte black.
Frameless glass opens up the room — making an everyday Opa-locka bath feel larger, brighter and more modern.
No tracks means no trapped soap scum or mildew. A quick squeegee keeps the glass clear for years — low effort, real durability.
Even well-built enclosures need service over time. Seals fail, hardware corrodes, or a door drifts out of plumb and leaks. We'll give you an honest call: if a repair solves it, we won't push a new door. If replacement makes more sense, we'll explain why — with a clear quote either way.
Opa-locka packs more character into four square miles than most cities manage in forty. Glenn Curtiss plotted it in the 1920s as an Arabian Nights theme city — minarets, domes and pointed arches along streets named Ali Baba Avenue, Sharazad Boulevard and Sesame Street — and today it wraps around one of the busiest executive airports in the country. Under the ornament sit thousands of hardworking bathrooms in modest single-family homes and duplexes. Here's where our vans roll every week.
The 1920s streets around Ali Baba Avenue and Sharazad Boulevard hold one of the largest collections of Moorish Revival architecture in the western hemisphere. The houses behind the arches hold some of the oldest bathrooms we serve — original framed tub enclosures, plaster walls that settled generations ago, and tile worth preserving. Custom fabrication handles all of it.
Opa-locka Executive Airport anchors the west side — cargo operations, flight schools and hangars running shifts around the clock. The neighborhoods beside it are duplexes and 1950s-'60s homes owned and rented by the people who keep that operation moving. We schedule measures and installs around tarmac hours, not bank hours.
The city's main north-south spine carries the buses, the storefronts and the daily rhythm. Blocks east and west of it mix long-time owner-occupied homes with tenant-occupied duplexes, and both get the same discipline: itemized quotes, single-visit installs, hardware that survives real life.
East of the rail lines the city borders North Miami and El Portal, with postwar block homes on quiet streets and growing numbers of young buyers doing their first renovations. Framed-to-frameless conversions are the standard first project here — biggest visual change per dollar in the house.
The southern boundary touches Miami and the county operations campus, where municipal and service workers own many of the solid mid-century homes. Steady schedules, straightforward projects, quick turnarounds — quotes out the same day and installs that fit between shifts.
The blocks pushing toward Miami Gardens and the Stadium corridor hold larger lots, later additions and master baths with real elbow room. Walk-in enclosures, inline panels over garden tubs, half-inch glass for tall openings — the upgrades get ambitious here and we build to match.
The housing stock runs older than the county average: 1920s homes in the themed core, then waves of 1940s-'60s block and frame construction filling the rest of the grid, with duplexes threaded through nearly every street. The bathrooms tell the same story — framed tub sliders past their third decade, five-foot tubs with bypass doors that stopped bypassing, and powder rooms squeezed into spaces the original builders never planned. The frameless conversion is the standard refresh: keep the tile and the tub that still work, replace the corroded metal and cloudy glass that don't.
This is also a city of duplexes and second units, where owners share walls with tenants and families share bathrooms across generations. That means our scheduling matters as much as our glass: one bathroom at a time, single-visit installs, and enclosures that stay watertight even when a household runs the shower in shifts. Low-threshold entries and smooth-glide sliders keep the same bathrooms workable for grandparents and grandchildren alike.
Around the airport belt, the work skews practical. Shift workers and flight-line crews need showers that function at 5 a.m. after a 2 a.m. cargo rotation, and landlords need glass that stands up to turnover between tenants. We spec solid-brass internals, corrosion-resistant finishes and coated panels for exactly that reality — durability isn't an upgrade here, it's the baseline.
And like its inland neighbors, Opa-locka fights water that arrives hard from the tap. Untreated glass in this city fogs white with mineral scale within a couple of years, no matter who hung it. So every enclosure we quote here includes a factory hydrophobic coating with the price shown in plain sight, full-length drip systems and mildew-resistant silicone as standard, and a straight answer about whether an existing panel is already etched past saving. In this zip code the materials list is the maintenance plan — and we write it that way.
This city works when the airport works — nights, weekends, 4 a.m. cargo pushes. We schedule measures and installs around shift rotations, not the other way around.
Estimates, contracts, install day and warranty support run in Spanish or English — whatever your household speaks. Se habla español as a default, not a favor.
Coated glass, scale-resistant hardware and honest chemistry advice for inland water. We quote for the scale you actually have, and tell you when an old panel is past polishing.
3/8-inch and 1/2-inch tempered glass fabricated to a digital template of your actual opening — a century of settling on the historic grid, tile that runs out of square, all of it accounted for. Measured and installed by our own crews, never subcontracted.
The Opa-locka classic: the decades-old framed tub slider comes out clean, the frameless enclosure goes in built to the opening as it exists today. One two-to-four-hour visit and the bathroom finally matches the arches outside.
Fogged panels, stiff hinges, chalked seals — the inland service standard. We polish scale where the glass is saveable, replace the hardware that isn't, re-seal the enclosure, and give you a straight verdict on every part.
Duplex bathrooms and second baths on this grid rarely have swing room. Frameless bypass and barn-style systems deliver the heavy-glass look with zero footprint, and glides light enough for every arm in the household.
Own a duplex or a small portfolio here? We handle unit-by-unit schedules, tenant-tough hardware specs, and itemized documentation for every property — work that holds value through turnover instead of leaking it.
Beveled and back-lit vanity mirrors, glass shelves and niche covers cut to your walls — finished to match your enclosure hardware and installed the same visit whenever possible. One company, the whole bathroom.
305-521-3949, en español o inglés. Name your street — from Ali Baba to the airport fence line, we know these blocks and can usually date your bathroom from the address alone.
A precise digital template of the opening, finish samples in hand, and an honest read on your existing glass — scale, seals and hardware each get a straight verdict before anything is ordered.
Five to seven business days, all of it in-house — clear, low-iron, tinted, coated and patterned glass. Rush slots exist for shift-scheduled families; tell us your dates early and we hold them.
One visit: pathed floors, contained dust, broom-clean exit, a care walkthrough in your language, and the written warranty registered before we pull out of the driveway.
A themed city deserves bathrooms thought through with the same care. The guidance we give on every Opa-locka measure.
Inland hard water bonds scale to untreated glass and wins within a couple of years. A factory hydrophobic coating keeps the minerals from grabbing on and cuts cleaning time in half — the cheapest insurance in any quote we write here.
Brushed nickel and matte black sit beautifully against the pastel and cream tile that survived every remodel since the Curtiss era — and solid-brass internals keep them working long after trends move on. Samples come to the measure, free.
When a duplex bathroom serves tenants and family alike, satin, gradient-frost and fluted panels keep the room bright but discreet — and patterned glass forgives the spotting that clear glass confesses. Privacy without losing the light.
The additions toward Miami Gardens run taller openings — floor-to-ceiling lines and wide walk-in panels. Half-inch tempered stays rigid and quiet at those heights where thinner stock flexes and hums. When the ceiling goes up, the glass should too.
Duplex baths and second baths on the grid are geometry problems first, style problems second. Frameless bypass and barn-style systems solve both at once — heavy-glass presence, zero swing footprint, glides light enough for every arm in the house.
Full-length drip systems, correctly sized sweeps and mildew-resistant silicone come standard on every install — and we stock the wear parts. A sweep is a twenty-dollar part protecting a whole bathroom floor through every season South Florida sends.
Opa-locka is small enough that reputation is everything — the barbershop, the school pickup line, the hangar break room. In a four-square-mile city, a crew that shows up late, leaves a mess or disappears mid-job gets talked about by dinnertime. We've spent more than twenty years earning the opposite reputation on these exact blocks: quoted numbers that hold on install day, bathrooms left cleaner than we found them, and glass good enough that the neighbors ask who did the work.
Behind that reputation sits the discipline we bring county-wide — our own licensed installers instead of subcontractors, a written workmanship warranty, wear parts stocked for everything we hang, and specs tuned to inland hard water instead of a brochure's. Estimates and install day run in Spanish or English, airport-shift households get scheduled around the tarmac clock, and duplex owners get unit-by-unit plans with documentation for every property. From a 1920s conversion on Sharazad Boulevard to a rental refresh by the airport fence: hecho con orgullo, porque esta ciudad lo merece.
Sí — the estimate, the contract, install day and any warranty visit all happen in whichever language your household prefers. Our office and our install crews speak Spanish and English fluently, so nothing about your project gets lost in translation.
Interior bathroom glass almost always sits outside historic-review scope — the Moorish Revival protections focus on the building exteriors that give the district its character. That said, we document every spec and provide full paperwork with your quote, so if the city, an insurer or a lender ever asks, the answers are already in your hands.
That's routine here. Early measure windows before a day shift, later slots for crews coming off nights, and Saturday installations are standing options. Most quotes go out the same day you call, so a shower project never has to burn one of your off days.
Constantly — half this city lives in multi-unit homes. We schedule unit by unit so tenants keep a working shower, spec tenant-tough hardware that survives turnover, and give owners itemized documentation for every property. One visit per bathroom, broom-clean when we leave.
You'll get a straight answer at the free measure. If new sweeps, rollers and hardware buy you real years, we'll say so and do the repair. But most framed units on this grid are far past that point — and a frameless conversion typically costs less than owners expect, done in a single visit.
That's mineral scale from inland hard water bonding to untreated glass — once it etches in, scrubbing can't reach it. We polish light scale where the panel is saveable, tell you honestly when it isn't, and quote every new enclosure here with a hydrophobic coating so it never comes back.
The measure visit runs about half an hour; fabrication takes five to seven business days; the install itself is one two-to-four-hour visit. Floors get pathed, dust gets contained, the old door gets hauled off, and you get a care walkthrough in your language before we go.
Almost never — and on a grid with 1920s foundations, we'd be out of business if they were. Frameless glass is fabricated to a digital template of your opening as it stands today, not to the rectangle the original builder drew. Settled walls are exactly why custom fabrication exists.
