Bathroom Remodeling Contractors Serving Dallas, TX Homeowners
A bathroom remodel starts with the room you want to end up with, not the one you have now. We handle bathroom remodeling across Dallas, TX, from a vanity and fixture refresh to a full gut renovation, as a licensed restoration and rebuild contractor. That distinction is worth explaining, because it is the whole reason to consider us over a general remodeler: most remodeling companies never open a wall until a client asks them to. We open walls constantly on the restoration side of our business, and that experience carries straight into how we plan and build a remodel.
Practically, it means fewer surprises partway through a job. We know what a base plate that has taken on moisture looks like, we know what a subfloor that has been damp for years feels like underfoot, and we know when a wall cavity needs more than a fresh coat of paint before anything goes back up. A crew that has never seen the inside of a wall is guessing at some of that. We are not, and we would rather tell you what we find than build over it.
A few things about North Texas homes shape how we plan a bathroom project specifically. Most houses here sit on a slab, so there is no crawlspace to access plumbing from below — moving a drain line usually means cutting into the slab itself, which is a bigger job than it sounds and worth flagging before you fall in love with a new layout. Older homes in the area also still turn up original cast iron drain lines, which change how a rough-in is planned compared to modern PVC. None of this is a reason to avoid a remodel; it is just the kind of detail that gets missed by a crew that has not worked a lot of local homes.
What We Remodel — Showers, Tubs, Vanities, Tile, and Full Bathrooms
Bathroom remodeling covers a wide range of jobs, from replacing a single fixture to reconfiguring the whole room. Here is what that typically includes.
Shower Remodels and Tub-to-Shower Conversions
Shower work is the most requested bathroom project we see. That covers replacing an aging shower surround, converting a tub to a walk-in shower, and rebuilding a shower pan and substrate that has failed underneath the tile. A proper shower remodel touches the pan liner, the waterproofing membrane, and the drain assembly, not just the visible tile on top — and getting that layer right the first time is what keeps the finished shower from leaking again in five years.
Vanities, Cabinetry, Tile, and Fixtures
Vanity and cabinetry replacement, countertop and sink changes, tile on floors and walls, faucets, lighting, and ventilation are the pieces that come together to change how a bathroom looks and works day to day. We can also relocate fixtures within a layout, though moving plumbing changes both the cost and the schedule — something we walk through before any work starts, not after.
Full Gut Renovations vs. Targeted Updates
Not every remodel needs to start from the studs. A targeted update — new vanity, new tile, new fixtures, same layout — is faster and less disruptive than a full gut renovation that reconfigures plumbing and moves walls. Part of the first consultation is figuring out which one actually solves the problem you have with the room, rather than defaulting to the bigger job.
Lighting and Ventilation
Ventilation gets overlooked more than anything else in a bathroom remodel, and it is one of the few upgrades that pays for itself by preventing a future problem rather than just improving the room. A bathroom fan that is undersized for the room, or one that vents into the attic instead of outside, pushes every shower's worth of moisture somewhere it does not belong — a detail we check as a matter of course, since it is the kind of thing our restoration side gets called out for later. Layered lighting — general, task, and accent — is a smaller line item that changes how finished the room feels more than almost anything else on the selections list.
Remodeling a Bathroom After Water Damage or Mold
A large share of the bathroom remodels we build start as a loss rather than a wish list. A supply line fails under a vanity, a shower pan leaks into the subfloor for months before anyone notices, or mold turns up behind tile that gets pulled during an unrelated repair. By the time it is diagnosed, the bathroom is already opened up, and somebody has to put it back together.
That is where being one contractor instead of two matters. Our restoration side handles the water extraction, drying, and mold work on the front end; our remodeling side rebuilds the room once it is dry, clean, and documented. There is no gap where a mitigation company leaves and you are left finding a general contractor who has to be brought up to speed on damage they never saw. We already saw it, because we opened the walls ourselves.
This page covers the rebuild only. If you are dealing with an active leak, standing water, or visible mold right now, water damage restoration and mold remediation are the pages that cover that work, including a related event we handle often — bathtub overflow cleanup. Once that phase is finished and the space is documented, this is where the room gets rebuilt.
Our Bathroom Remodeling Process, Phase by Phase
A remodel runs in a set order, and knowing that order in advance is most of what removes the uncertainty from managing one.
- Consultation and scope. We look at the space, talk through what you want, and put together a written scope before anything is priced.
- Design and material selections. Tile, fixtures, vanity, and finishes get chosen and confirmed, including lead times on anything special-ordered.
- Permits, where required. We handle the application and inspection process on projects that need one.
- Demolition. Old materials come out. This is also when we find out what is actually behind the surfaces we could not see beforehand.
- Rough-in. Any plumbing or electrical that is moving gets set before walls close back up.
- Finishes. Tile, paint, fixtures, vanity, and trim go in.
- Walkthrough. We go through the finished room together before we call the job done.
Two things are worth saying plainly. First, demolition is when a scope written from what is visible sometimes changes — occasionally what is behind a wall is not what anyone expected, and we will tell you before we proceed rather than after. Second, licensed trade partners carry out plumbing, gas, and electrical work as part of the project; we coordinate the schedule, but we would rather be clear about that than let you assume it is all one crew. During the work, we contain dust and protect the rest of the home so the project does not spread past the room it is in.
What a Bathroom Remodel Costs in Dallas, TX
Cost depends on scope, materials, and whether anything moves. A targeted update that keeps the existing layout and swaps in a new vanity, tile, and fixtures is a smaller project than a full gut renovation that relocates the shower or moves plumbing. Tile selection, fixture grade, and how much of the room's footprint changes all move the number from there, and the condition of the subfloor once it is opened up can move it again.
It helps to think in tiers rather than a single number. A cosmetic refresh that keeps every fixture in its current spot is the least expensive tier. Replacing fixtures and finishes without moving plumbing sits above that. A layout change that relocates the shower, toilet, or vanity plumbing is the largest tier, because it touches the slab and the rough-in, not just what is visible in the finished room. Where a project lands inside those tiers depends on the choices you make during design and selections, not on square footage alone.
We give a written scope after seeing the space rather than a figure over the phone — a bathroom that keeps its layout and a bathroom that relocates the shower are different jobs at the same square footage, and the only honest way to price either one is to look at it first. Where financing is available, we can talk through it at that same visit.
