Does Paragon provide bathroom remodeling in Howell?
Paragon accepts bathroom remodeling inquiries in Howell through its published location page. A site review confirms the address, scope, access, permit responsibility, and any required trade attribution. Paragon then provides a written proposal and confirms scheduling based on scope, materials, inspections, weather, and crew availability.
What should Howell homeowners confirm before bathroom remodeling?
Howell homeowners should confirm scope, permit responsibility, and trade attribution before bathroom remodeling begins. Paragon’s published territory covers Ocean, Monmouth, Middlesex and Burlington Counties, New Jersey. Exact requirements still depend on the property and municipality, so the written proposal should identify who handles each filing, inspection, material choice, and project phase.
How much does a bathroom remodel cost in Howell?
Most bathroom remodels in Howell, NJ run $12,000 to $40,000, depending on scope and whether plumbing moves. Paragon Exteriors is family-run and NJ HIC-registered (#13VH13814500); call 848-633-6440 for a free, itemized estimate — waterproofing, fixtures, and tile priced as separate lines, not guessed at.
Waterproofing is the part you can’t see — and the part that matters most
A bathroom remodel lives or dies on what’s behind the tile. In Howell’s older housing stock — particularly the late-60s and 70s splits and ranches through Candlewood and Ramtown — original mortar-bed showers and cast-iron tubs often sit on subfloor that’s been absorbing slow leaks for years without anyone noticing. We open the wall and check the subfloor before finalizing scope, install a proper waterproof membrane system (not just a coat of paint-on sealant), and slope every shower pan correctly to the drain. That’s the work nobody sees in the finished photo — and the reason a remodel either lasts twenty years or fails again in three.
Can you convert my tub to a walk-in shower?
Yes — this is one of the most common requests we get across Howell’s 55+ communities and from longtime homeowners aging in place in their Candlewood or Ramtown ranch. We handle full tub-to-shower conversions with a properly framed and waterproofed pan, glass or tile surround, and fixtures sized for the new layout. That often means a curbless or low-curb entry, in-wall blocking for grab bars — installed now or ready for later — and slip-resistant flooring, done right the first time instead of retrofitted after a fall.
What changes by neighborhood and housing stock
Late-60s/70s splits and ranches (Candlewood, Ramtown) — Original tile, cast-iron tubs, and dated single-vanity layouts. Work often includes full gut-and-waterproof, updated ventilation, and layout tweaks within the existing footprint.
1980s–90s colonials off Route 9 — Builder-grade fiberglass tub/shower units and laminate vanities. Remodels here commonly upgrade to tile showers, double vanities, and better lighting.
We’re family-run and NJ HIC-registered (#13VH13814500), and we open the walls before we quote the final number — no surprises after demo starts.

Flexible financing for your bathroom remodel.
Ask about available financing options when you book your free estimate. Eligibility, rates, and terms vary by provider and applicant.
Most Howell bathroom remodels run $12,000 to $40,000. A standard hall or guest bath refresh — new vanity, tile, tub or shower — sits at the lower end. A primary bath with a tub-to-shower conversion, a curbless entry, or a full layout change runs higher. Your free estimate breaks out waterproofing, fixtures, and tile as separate line items so you know what each part costs.
What is the biggest risk in an older Howell bathroom remodel?
Water damage hidden behind the old tile — especially common in the late-60s and 70s splits and ranches around Candlewood and Ramtown, where original mortar-bed showers and cast-iron tubs have been in place for decades. We open the walls before quoting final scope, so you find out about rotted subfloor or failed waterproofing before we close it back up, not after.
Do I need a permit for a bathroom remodel in Howell Township?
A cosmetic swap — new vanity, toilet, tile on an existing sound subfloor — often does not require one. Moving plumbing lines, changing the tub-to-shower footprint, or updating electrical near wet areas typically does need a construction permit through Howell Township. Paragon determines which category the job falls into and handles the paperwork when it is needed.
Can you convert my tub to a walk-in shower for aging in place?
Yes — this is one of the most common requests in Howell 55+ communities and among longtime residents in Candlewood and Ramtown ranches who want to stay in their homes. Paragon builds a proper sloped pan with a curb-free or low-curb entry, adds grab-bar blocking behind the tile, and uses slip-resistant flooring, all waterproofed correctly the first time.
