Bathroom Remodeling · Northern Dallas–Fort Worth
Bathroom remodeling across northern DFW
TrueForm serves the northern Dallas–Fort Worth metro — North Dallas, the Park Cities, Collin County, northern Denton County, and the NE Tarrant corridor — with Refresh, Reconfigure, and Spa Master tiers written before demo. Every bath scope names waterproofing, ventilation, glass, tile, plumbing, permit, and humidity-control assumptions, then ships with a 3-year workmanship warranty and one project manager from walkthrough to handoff.
Fixed-price tiers
Pricing reflects 2026 Texas baseline ranges for a typical 40–100 sq ft bathroom, then calibrates for local conditions after the on-site walkthrough.
| Tier | Price range | What's included |
|---|---|---|
| Good — Refresh | $8K–$16K | Fixtures · vanity refinish · tile surfaces · paint |
| Better — Reconfigure | $28K–$45K | Full tile · new vanity · new shower · same layout |
| Best — Spa / master | $45K–$75K+ | Gut · plumbing moves · spa features · premium finishes |
What's included at each tier
Good — Refresh ($8K–$16K)
Keep the layout and plumbing rough-ins, and replace what shows wear. Typically includes: Layout, plumbing rough-ins and vanity box stay; New toilet, faucet, shower trim and light fixtures; Vanity refinished or re-fronted; Tiled shower walls or an acrylic surround; New mirror, fresh paint and a new exhaust fan.

Metro-specific considerations
Most DFW homes are slab-on-grade, which means any plumbing relocation — shower drain, toilet flange, vanity rough-in — requires cutting and patching the slab. We scope that work explicitly at the walkthrough so it isn't a surprise change order. Dallas, Plano, and Frisco all require a plumbing permit for relocations and a separate electrical permit if a new circuit is added for a heated floor, steam unit, or upgraded vanity lighting. Permit timing adds 5–10 business days, which we sequence ahead of demo. Older homes in East Dallas, Highland Park, and University Park frequently have cast-iron drain stacks at end-of-life; if we find one during demo we'll re-quote the stack replacement in writing before continuing. Collin County and NE Tarrant baths often run through master-planned HOA or ARC review on larger suite expansions, while Park Cities suites face town-code plan review and tighter lot-coverage and drainage rules.
Frequently asked
How much does a bathroom remodel cost in Texas?
A Texas bath runs $8K–$16K for a refresh, $28K–$45K for a full reconfigure on the same layout, and $45K–$75K+ for a gut with plumbing moves and spa features. Northern DFW quotes adjust for slab work, waterproofing, ventilation, permits, and local access constraints before demo.
How long does a DFW bathroom remodel take?
A refresh is 1–2 weeks. A full tile + vanity + shower reconfigure on the same layout is 4–6 weeks. A gut-and-replumb spa bath with plumbing relocation runs 6–10 weeks. We order tile, glass, and vanity before demo so the bath isn't sitting open waiting on backorders.
Can you do a tub-to-shower conversion?
Yes. Conversions typically land in the Better tier range. Allow 3–4 weeks once glass is templated.
Do you handle plumbing relocation and permits?
Yes. Moving a shower drain, toilet flange, or vanity rough-in usually requires a slab cut on DFW slab-on-grade homes and a plumbing permit in Dallas, Plano, or Frisco. We pull and close the permit and itemize the slab work in the written scope.
What waterproofing system do you use in showers?
Both are tested systems with manufacturer warranties. We don't rely on liquid waterproofing alone for showers — the failure rate over 10+ years is too high. Steam showers get an additional vapor barrier on the warm side.
Can you build a curbless walk-in shower?
Yes. Curbless showers require lowering the subfloor or building up the surrounding floor, plus a linear drain and proper slope. On slab-on-grade homes the easier path is a low-profile aluminum curb. We scope which approach fits your bath at the walkthrough.
What's the warranty on a TrueForm bathroom?
Three-year workmanship warranty on every bathroom. Manufacturer warranties on tile, fixtures, glass, and vanity pass through.
How do you protect the rest of my home during the work?
Protecting what stays is standard on every project. We lay ram board and adhesive film over floors and stairs along every path the crew walks, hang zippered dust barriers with negative-air machines where the work calls for it, and seal HVAC returns so demo dust doesn't travel through the ductwork. Cabinetry, counters, and landscaping that stay are covered and protected, we clean up daily, and a final walkthrough leaves the home as clean as we found it.
Why TrueForm for a DFW bathroom
Bathrooms fail at the waterproofing, not the tile. We don't rely on liquid waterproofing alone for showers — long-term failure rates are too high to put your name on a 3-year workmanship warranty otherwise. Same project manager from walkthrough to punch list. Materials — tile, glass templates, vanity, fixtures — are ordered before demo so the bath isn't open longer than the schedule allows. If demo uncovers a failing cast-iron drain stack or a hidden leak, we re-quote in writing before continuing that line of work, not after. Manufacturer warranties on tile, fixtures, glass, and vanity pass through to you and are registered in your name.
