Question 1

More complex renovations involving custom materials or structural changes may take 3-5 days.

Question 2

What are the best window options for Tampa's weather conditions?

Accepted Answer

The West Shore Home team recommends that Tampa residents install impact-resistant windows, as they are are better able to withstand hurricanes and tropical weather events.

Question 3

How much does a bathroom remodel cost in Tampa?

Accepted Answer

Bathroom remodel costs in Tanoa typically range from $8,500-$15,000 for a standard renovation, while premium upgrades can range from $15,000-$25,000+. Key factors affecting cost include bathroom size, material quality, layout changes, and fixture selections. West Shore Home offers transparent pricing with no hidden fees and multiple financing options specifically for Tampa homeowners.

Question 4

Do I need a permit for bathroom remodeling in Tampa?

Accepted Answer

Yes, most bathroom remodeling projects in Tampa require permits, particularly when changing plumbing, electrical systems, or moving walls. West Shore Home handles the entire permitting process for Tampa residents, including submission to the Tampa City Planning Department. Our team is familiar with Tampa's specific building codes and can typically secure permits much quicker than average, saving you time and ensuring compliance.

Question 5

What entry door styles are most popular among Tampa homeowners?

Accepted Answer

Tampa homeowners typically choose craftsman-style doors for traditional homes, modern full-light doors for contemporary properties, and fiberglass doors with decorative glass for transitional styles. Weather considerations are crucial in Tampa, so our most popular doors feature enhanced weatherstripping, polyurethane foam cores for insulation, and adjustable thresholds. Dark blues, rich browns, and classic black are currently the trending door colors in Tampa neighborhoods.

Question 6

Can you convert my Tampa home's bathtub to a walk-in shower?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we specialize in tub-to-shower conversions for Tampa homes. The process typically takes 1-2 days and includes removing your existing tub, reinforcing the shower base area, installing a new shower pan, adding wall surrounds, and completing with fixtures and glass doors if desired.

Question 7

How much can Tampa homeowners save on energy bills with new windows?

Accepted Answer

Tampa homeowners typically save 20-30% on energy bills* after installing our energy-efficient windows. With Tampa's long, warm summers, our double and triple-pane windows with Low-E coatings significantly reduce heating and cooling loss. Based on average Tampa utility rates, most homeowners recoup their window investment within 5-7 years through energy savings alone, not including increased home value.

*West Shore Home cannot guarantee exact changes in energy costs as external factors exist in home age, insulation, etc.

Question 8

What financing options are available for home remodeling in Tampa?

Accepted Answer

Tampa homeowners can access multiple financing options through West Shore Home, including low fixed-rate loans, and same-as-cash plans. We partner with multiple lenders to offer competitive rates specifically for Tampa metro area residents. Most customers can get pre-approved within minutes with just a soft credit check, and we offer special financing promotions for military families and first responders serving the Tampa community.

Question 9

How do your windows perform during Tampa storms?

Accepted Answer

Our windows are engineered specifically to withstand Tampa's severe weather conditions, including high winds and tropical storms. We offer impact-resistant glass options rated for wind speeds up to 150 mph, exceeding Tampa's building code requirements. Our windows feature reinforced frames, multi-point locking systems, and special glazing techniques that prevent shattering during extreme weather events. Each installation includes proper sealing and flashing to prevent water infiltration during Tampa's occasional inclement weather.

Question 10

What makes West Shore Home different from other Tampa remodelers?

Accepted Answer

Our proprietary visualization technology lets you preview your exact project before installation begins.
