Bathroom Remodeling with HHI Builders
HHI Builders is a design-build remodeler on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. Design and construction happen under one roof: a design agreement first, then a fixed-price construction contract with no change orders.
This approach covers primary baths, guest baths and tub-to-shower conversions, for homeowners who want a full bathroom remodel done by one team from start to finish.
What’s Included
Design, selections, construction and the workmanship warranty: one team, under one roof.
Design
Design starts with a discovery visit at your home, then moves into our design studio. Your designer develops the floor plan and elevations, walks you through them in 3D, and refines them with you until they are right. Design ends with a detailed estimate built from the finished drawings, which is what makes a fixed price possible.
Selections
Selections are made in the studio with your designer, not from a catalog on your own: cabinetry, counters, tile, plumbing fixtures, lighting and hardware. Each choice is priced as you make it, so you always know where the number stands. When selections are complete they are locked into the contract, and that is why the price does not change.
Build
Once cabinets arrive, on-site work moves quickly since HHI can normally turn cabinets around in about two weeks, so the schedule is driven less by cabinet lead times and more by plumbing, electrical, and structural or foundation inspections where they apply. A project manager is on site daily, overseeing the subcontract crews doing the work and inspecting it internally before it's considered done. Town inspections are scheduled by the director of construction, and results are logged in the portal the same day, so you always know where the build stands.
Workmanship warranty
One-year workmanship warranty on every project, measured against the National Association of Home Builders' Residential Construction Performance Guidelines.

Questions Homeowners Ask
What does a bathroom remodel cost on Hilton Head?
A bathroom remodel on Hilton Head typically runs $450 to $850 per square foot, so a 100 sq ft bathroom usually falls between $45K and $85K. Smaller bathrooms often land at the higher end of that per-square-foot range, since showers, waterproofing, and plumbing cost about the same no matter the room's size. Your final number depends on the scope of the design and the selections you choose. Every project is priced as a fixed price before construction starts, with a detailed, fully broken-down estimate so you know the whole cost up front, not a low number that grows later through change orders.
How long does a primary bath remodel take?
A primary bath remodel runs on a timeline tied to project cost, with design and build scheduled one after the other. For projects up to $100,000, design takes 6 weeks and build takes 6 to 8 weeks. From $100,000 to $200,000, design takes 7 to 9 weeks and build takes 9 to 12 weeks. From $200,000 to $350,000, design takes 10 to 14 weeks and build takes 13 to 16 weeks. HHI sets the exact schedule with you before the remodel starts, based on the scope and finishes you choose.
Can you convert a tub to a walk-in shower?
Yes, HHI Builders converts tubs to walk-in showers as part of a full bathroom remodel. The tub comes out and the shower is rebuilt, with plumbing usually relocated to a floor drain. You choose between an acrylic pan and a mud-set tiled pan, and that choice is made during selections, before anything is demolished. HHI does full bathroom remodels rather than conversion-only jobs, so a tub-to-shower conversion is handled as one piece of the larger project, designed and built by the same team under a fixed-price contract.
Do bathroom remodels require permits?
Most bathroom remodels need a permit, and HHI pulls it for you. The Town of Hilton Head Island handles permitting for the island, except for Windmill Harbour, which goes through Beaufort County. A simple freshen-up with no structural or plumbing changes can be permitted in as little as two days. Projects involving structural work typically take about five weeks, including two to three weeks for plan review, since engineering and drawing review take time. Most other bathroom permits fall somewhere in between, generally one to five weeks. If your bathroom remodel touches exterior work in a plantation community, it will also need ARB approval before the Town will accept the permit application.
What a client said about their bathroom remodeling project
“HHI Builders did a phenomenal job remodeling three bathrooms in our home. We also had to repipe our entire home, and they managed it beautifully. I appreciated the care they took to protect our floors and personal belongings throughout the project and to respectfully work around us as we were living in the home during construction. From start to finish, communication has been clear with daily progress reports and pictures. Big shout out to project manager Charlie Gleeson, who has patiently and tirelessly solved all problems, big and small. He is a man of his word and gets the job done no matter what it takes. Ryan Morrison has also been extremely helpful throughout the project, from planning to problem solving. HHI Builders has a talented group of subs who do excellent work. Everyone we've worked with has been polite and professional. High praise for the clean-up crew. I thought we would never see the end of the dust, but they took care of it all, and our house is sparkling again. We're thrilled with the results and look forward to working with HHI Builders on our next project.”
