Bathroom Remodeling in Dallas, TX
The bathroom is the one room in a Dallas home that has to perform every day, and the one most likely to hide trouble behind the tile. A well-built bathroom remodel in Dallas handles both, the daily function you see and the waterproofing you do not, from a quick guest-bath refresh to a full primary suite. Together Design & Build is a trusted bathroom remodeler in Dallas, a downtown design-build team rated 5 stars on Google and Yelp.
Dallas Bathroom Remodeling at a Glance

- Typical cost: $8,000 to $35,000, with mid-range projects around $15,000 to $25,000 and primary suites reaching $50,000 or more.
- Timeline: 2 to 4 weeks for a standard remodel, and 3 to 6 weeks for a full gut or primary-suite build.
- Permit: usually required, since most remodels touch plumbing or electrical. City of Dallas fees run roughly $100 to $400, filed through DallasNow, and we handle it.
- Biggest cost saver: keeping fixtures where they are, since relocating them on a slab adds $2,000 to $8,000 per fixture.

What Does a Bathroom Remodel Cost in Dallas?
Most bathroom remodels in Dallas run $8,000 to $35,000, with mid-range projects typically landing at $15,000 to $25,000 and primary-suite renovations reaching $50,000 or more. Priced by the square foot, Dallas bathrooms generally fall between $70 and $250 depending on finishes. Here is where most Dallas bathrooms land by scope:
- Cosmetic refresh ($8,000 to $14,000): new vanity, fixtures, tile, and lighting, with the existing layout kept in place.
- Mid-range remodel ($15,000 to $25,000): a new tiled shower or tub, flooring, vanity and stone countertop, and updated plumbing and electrical.
- Primary or luxury ($30,000 to $52,000+): custom tile, a walk-in or wet-room shower, a freestanding tub, a double vanity, and layout changes.
The costliest mistake is comparing quotes without comparing scope. A bid that skips proper waterproofing or reuses old rough-in plumbing looks cheaper until it fails. On resale, a mid-range Dallas bathroom recoups roughly 60% to 70% of its cost, and adding a bathroom where none exists returns even more.

What Drives Dallas Bathroom Remodeling Costs?
Scope sets the total, but a few factors decide where you land. The biggest is layout: keeping the toilet, sink, and shower in place avoids cutting the slab, and moving a fixture can add $2,000 to $8,000 apiece once you reroute plumbing through concrete. Tile and fixtures make up close to 40% of a typical budget, and labor another 40% to 65%, since Dallas plumbers and tile setters stay in high demand. Older homes in Lakewood, the M Streets, and East Dallas often need dated wiring and pipes brought up to code, and demolition can uncover water damage or mold that a careful contractor budgets for up front.
Permits for a Dallas Bathroom Remodel
Most bathroom remodels in Dallas require a permit, because the work usually involves plumbing or electrical changes the City of Dallas inspects. Cosmetic-only updates, like paint, a new vanity top, or a like-for-like fixture swap, often do not.
The city processes these through its Building Inspection division and the DallasNow online portal, with fees for a standard bathroom running roughly $100 to $400 and approval commonly taking one to two weeks. Dallas is a fully zoned city, so your project has to satisfy the zoning code along with the building code. You can confirm your specific requirements through the City of Dallas residential permitting resources. We file the applications, pull the permits, and schedule the inspections, so it never becomes your errand.
What Do North Texas Homes Mean for a Bathroom Remodel?
Two local conditions shape almost every Dallas bathroom project: what your house sits on and how old it is. Most Dallas homes sit on concrete slabs poured over expansive clay, the kind of soil that swells in wet months and shrinks in dry ones. That movement is a common reason bathroom tile and grout crack, so we plan for it in how we set floors, shower pans, and transitions.
Age brings the second set of surprises. The older homes in Lakewood, the M Streets, and East Dallas often hide dated plumbing and wiring behind original tile, and once demolition starts we sometimes find water damage or mold from years of Texas humidity. We surface these conditions during planning and price them in, rather than letting them blow up the budget mid-project.
Bathroom Remodeling Services We Provide in Dallas
Our Dallas bathroom remodeling covers the full build, from the waterproofing behind the walls to the finishes you see. We build walk-in and curbless showers, convert tubs to showers, set custom tile, and install vanities, stone countertops, flooring, lighting, and proper exhaust ventilation. We also take on full layout changes, primary-suite redesigns, and aging-in-place features like curbless entries and grab bars for homeowners planning to stay put.
If you are updating more than one room, we can coordinate a matching kitchen remodel on the same schedule, so you live through the disruption once instead of twice.
Why Dallas Homeowners Work With Together Design & Build
Most bathroom projects fail behind the tile, not in front of it, when a crew rushes the waterproofing or the shower-pan slope. Together Design & Build keeps design, material selections, permitting, and construction on one accountable team, so the people who design your bathroom answer for the crew that builds it.
For you, that means a fixed-cost contract before demolition, a single point of contact, and a downtown Dallas office where we walk through tile, stone, and fixtures together. Our work is rated 5 stars on Google and Yelp, which is what happens when one team owns the outcome.
Our Dallas Bathroom Remodeling Process
Every Dallas bathroom project moves through the same four stages, which keeps budgets honest and schedules predictable:
01. Consultation & Planning
We visit, measure, and lock scope, budget, and a fixed-cost contract before anything is demolished.
02. Design and Material Selections
You choose tile, vanity, fixtures, and finishes with our team, and we produce the drawings the city and the crew both work from.
03. Permitting and Build
We file through DallasNow, demo, waterproof, and sequence the trades so plumbing, electrical, and tile land in the right order.
04. Completion and Walkthrough
We close the punch list, clean up, and walk the finished bathroom with you before you use it.
