Pretty Bayou is a waterfront neighborhood inside Panama City along the bayou of the same name, known for boat docks and homes built to take advantage of the water. Bathrooms here often connect to an outdoor shower or pool bath used after a day on the water.
Pretty Bayou (ZIP 32405) isn't organized into named subdivisions the way some of Bay County's cities are — it's a tight-knit waterfront community strung along the bayou itself, and we know the area well, from the docks and boathouses to the homes set back from the water. This page is part of our full Bathroom Remodels coverage across Bay, Walton, Okaloosa & Gulf County.
Permits in Pretty Bayou: handled through Bay County's Building Safety Division — Pretty Bayou is an unincorporated waterfront community, not its own city. We pull the permit and schedule inspections either way.
A typical Pretty Bayou bathroom remodel starts with an in-person visit — we look at your existing layout, plumbing, and any structural quirks specific to homes in this part of Florida before writing up a scope and price. From there, one in-house crew handles demo, rough-in, tile, fixtures, and paint from start to finish, so nothing gets lost between subcontractors along the way. Most Pretty Bayou bathroom remodels wrap in one to three weeks depending on scope, and we walk the finished space with you before calling the job done.
9+ years in business, licensed & insured, and a 5.0-star Google rating from 26 real reviews.
