Bathroom Remodeling in Southlake, TX

Spa-grade primary baths, master-suite reworks, and secondary bath transformations for Southlake homeowners — Vaquero, Carillon, Timarron, Estates of Southlake. Chad partners with your designer. $95K-$245K typical scope, 10-16 weeks construction.

A luxury bathroom remodel in Southlake typically reworks 120-320 square feet of bath and adjacent closet space, installs a frameless walk-in shower (often with steam), a freestanding tub (Kohler, Victoria + Albert, or Waterworks), a furniture-style double vanity with natural stone slab top, and a custom closet system. Most Southlake primary baths land in the $95,000 to $245,000 range; spa-grade primary suites with sauna, extensive closet reworks, or bedroom coordination push into $250-385K.

Bathroom remodeling for Southlake homes.

Southlake’s primary baths have aged out of their original layout more universally than any other room. The corner whirlpool tub nobody uses. The half-wall shower with the sliding door. The under-lit double vanity. The closet sized for the wardrobes of a different decade.

We rebuild them. Corner whirlpool comes out and becomes a larger frameless walk-in shower (often with steam) or a freestanding tub for clients who actually take baths. Vanity gets rebuilt in furniture-style millwork with integrated cosmetic-grade lighting — the temperature that makes makeup application reliable. Stone selection happens at the yard with you and your designer. Custom closet system replaces the wire shelving with drawers, hanging zones, and jewelry inserts.

Three primary-bath scopes we run most in Southlake.

Primary bath refresh.

Existing footprint stays. Shower rebuild, tub removal, vanity replacement, tile refresh, lighting redesign, closet system upgrade. Budget: $95,000-$165,000. Timeline: 10-14 weeks.

Spa-grade primary bath.

Full-scope rework with steam shower, freestanding tub, custom vanity millwork, heated stone floors, integrated closet system, sometimes a coffee station. Budget: $165,000-$245,000. Timeline: 12-16 weeks.

Primary suite (bath + closet + bedroom).

Coordinated rework of the entire suite as a single scope. Bath + closet + bedroom finishes, lighting, millwork, and adjacent rooms treated as one design. Budget: $250,000-$385,000. Timeline: 14-20 weeks.

Frequently asked questions

What does a bathroom remodel cost in Southlake?
Most Southlake primary baths we remodel land in the $95,000 to $245,000 range as of 2026. Spa-grade suites with steam shower, freestanding tub, integrated cosmetic-grade vanity lighting, and custom vanity millwork push toward $250-385K when the closet is included. Secondary and guest baths run $35,000-$85,000 typically. The exact number depends heavily on stone selection (Calacatta marble is 2-3× the cost of a quality quartz), whether we're keeping the existing footprint or reworking the closet + bedroom too, and the fixture spec (Waterworks, Kallista, Newport Brass are our most-common choices).
How long does a Southlake bathroom remodel take?
Active construction: 10-16 weeks for a primary bath. Pre-construction: 6-10 weeks including design coordination with your interior designer, slab selection at the yard, permits from the City of Southlake, and material lead times (stone slabs are typically 4-6 weeks; custom vanity millwork is 8-12 weeks). From first consultation to keys: 4-6 months for a typical Southlake primary bath.
Do you handle Southlake ARB for a bath project?
For interior-only bath remodels: no ARB review needed in Vaquero, Carillon, or Estates of Southlake — interior scopes don't trigger review. If your primary-bath scope also expands the exterior (adding a window bay to a shower, converting a covered patio to sunroom-style bath extension), we draft the ARB submission as part of the contract. City of Southlake permits are required regardless.
Can we live in the house during a Southlake bath remodel?
For primary-bath remodels: yes, as long as you have another functional bathroom in the home (which every Southlake luxury home does). We set up dust barriers around the active bath, protect the primary bedroom carpet or floors, and let you continue using the space with the exception of the active bath. Guest and secondary bath remodels are similarly easy to live through since the scope is contained.
Do you do steam showers and saunas in Southlake?
Yes for steam showers — they require additional steam-rated tile, a sloped ceiling, a steam generator (Mr. Steam or ThermaSol), and proper electrical capacity. Budget add: $8,500-$18,000 typically. For saunas, we partner with a Finnish-sauna specialist who handles the cedar work and electrical — we do the surround. Budget add: $15,000-$32,000.
What Southlake neighborhoods do you work in?
All of them. Our core Southlake bath work is concentrated in [Vaquero](/locations/southlake/vaquero/), [Carillon](/locations/southlake/carillon/), [Timarron](/locations/southlake/timarron/), [Estates of Southlake](/locations/southlake/estates-of-southlake/), Stone Lakes, and Clariden Ranch. Primary bath scopes are similar across the town; the aesthetic differs by neighborhood — Vaquero skews warmer and more traditional, Estates of Southlake often skews transitional.
