A fixed-price bathroom project from our Plano-based DFW team serving Farmers Branch homeowners, with designers, project leads, and tradespeople who finish on the day they said they would. Eleven years, 5,875 projects, one promise: your quote is your price.
A bathroom remodel in Farmers Branch typically runs $8,000 to $60,000 with UHS Remodeling, quoted as a fixed price before work begins. A hall-bath refresh sits near the lower end, while a full primary-bath gut with a curbless shower, freestanding tub, double vanity, and relocated plumbing reaches the upper range. UHS Remodeling pulls and coordinates the plumbing and electrical permits and inspections with your local building department as part of the project. A major cost driver for baths is the age of the home: in older housing stock, tearing out original mud-set showers and garden tubs frequently exposes dated galvanized or cast-iron drain lines, subfloor moisture damage, and undersized venting that have to be corrected to current code. For a line-item look at where the money goes, see our DFW home remodel cost guide.
We handle design, selections, permits and construction in-house, with one superintendent on site and a dated schedule before demolition starts.
The goal: open, layered light, a room the house gathers in.
A bathroom remodel in Farmers Branch typically runs $8,000 to $60,000 with UHS, fixed-price and quoted up front: a guest or hall bath lands at the lower end, while a full primary-suite bath with a walk-in shower, freestanding tub, and double vanity climbs toward the top. Permits for the work are pulled through the City of Farmers Branch Building Inspection Division (Community Services Department) via the Citizen Self Service portal, and any layout or plumbing change triggers inspection. The biggest local cost driver is the city’s age: in 1950s-60s ranch and Mid-Century Modern homes, the original bath usually hides galvanized or cast-iron supply lines, undersized drains, and slab-set plumbing. Re-routing that behind old tile, plus upgrading mid-century electrical to today’s GFCI and venting code, adds scope you would not see in a newer suburb. Tight original footprints often need a wall moved to fit a curbless shower, which adds framing and structural work. For a line-item look at where the money goes, see our DFW home remodel cost guide.
We remodel bathrooms across Farmers Branch, including Brookhaven and the Brookhaven Country Club area, Branch Crossing, Valwood Park, Mustang Crossing, Farmington Park Estates, and Johnston Park.
Keeping the toilet, sink, and shower in place saves $3K–$6K. Relocating them for a better layout adds rough-in and permit work.
A frameless walk-in shower with a bench and niche costs more than a standard alcove — but it’s the #1 request from Farmers Branch primary baths.
Floor-to-ceiling tile and intricate patterns add labor hours. A waterproofed wet wall with an accent strip gets the look for less.
Quartz is durable and mid-range; natural marble and exotic stone push the top of the range.
Builder-grade vs. designer shower systems and freestanding tubs can swing the budget $2K–$8K on their own.
Fixed scope and a written schedule before anyone swings a hammer in your house.
Layout review, scope (guest bath vs primary), fixture wishlist, budget alignment.
3D layout + tile/stone/fixture selection. Drain + niche placement specified before demo.
Plumbing + electrical permits, HOA submission if exterior wall changes in Farmers Branch.
Demo, rough plumbing, framing, tile, vanity install. Daily site lead on premises.
Punch list, water-test all fixtures, 3-year warranty on workmanship active.
“What makes a Farmers Branch bath feel finished isn’t the tile — it’s the threshold, the niche depth, the drain placement, the doorframe reveal. We design those before demo because retrofitting them after is what makes a remodel feel cheap.”
Farmers Branch bathrooms carry their history in the plumbing. Because the city filled in during the 1950s and 1960s GI Bill boom, its dominant housing stock is the mid-century ranch and a real concentration of Mid-Century Modern homes built right here. That means most original bathrooms are now 60 to 70-plus years old: compact, closed-off footprints with cast-iron tubs, dated wall tile, single-pane windows, and galvanized supply lines hidden behind the walls. A bathroom remodel in a Valwood Park or Branch Crossing ranch is rarely cosmetic. It usually means re-routing aging plumbing and electrical, leveling original slab-set floors, and reworking tight layouts into the walk-in showers and double vanities today’s buyers expect. Around Brookhaven Country Club, where custom homes run higher, the same homeowners ask UHS for fully luxury primary-bath renovations. We have completed 5,875-plus projects across DFW since 2014, all on our fixed-price model.

I hired UHS Remodeling for a complex wet-room project including a freestanding tub, open shower, and an infrared sauna. I’m extremely impressed with their precision — they followed every technical specification perfectly, maintaining exact clearances and ensuring a zero pinch-point layout. If you need a team that understands high-end design and follows field measurements to the letter, this is it. Truly a spa-like result.
Your design lead, May N., helps you choose the tile, fixtures, and layout that fit your bathroom.
Most of a Farmers Branch bathroom budget is labor and waterproofing — not the fixtures homeowners obsess over. Here’s how a typical $32,000 primary-bath remodel breaks down, so you know where every dollar goes before you sign.
Because labor and waterproofing dominate the budget, the cheapest bid is rarely the safest one — cutting waterproofing is invisible on day one and catastrophic in year three. Every UHS Farmers Branch bathroom includes a full waterproofing membrane and a 3-year workmanship warranty.
Ranges are for a typical 60–150 sq ft Farmers Branch bathroom, materials and labor included.
All ranges include design, materials, labor, permits, waterproofing, and 3-year warranty. Sourced against NARI Cost vs. Value 2025 and EPA WaterSense efficiency standards.

With UHS, bathroom remodels in Farmers Branch typically range from $8,000 to $60,000 on our fixed-price model. A guest or hall bath sits at the lower end; a full primary bath with a walk-in shower, freestanding tub, and double vanity reaches the upper end. In the city’s 1950s-60s ranch and Mid-Century Modern homes, re-routing dated galvanized or cast-iron plumbing and upgrading old electrical behind original tile is the most common reason a Farmers Branch bath costs more than a comparable remodel in a newer suburb.
Yes. Any bathroom remodel that moves fixtures or alters plumbing, electrical, or HVAC requires a permit from the City of Farmers Branch Building Inspection Division, submitted through the city’s Citizen Self Service portal. Because a typical remodel touches plumbing, electrical, and sometimes framing, the project usually involves multiple inspections. UHS handles the permitting and coordinates inspections as part of every fixed-price bathroom project.
Farmers Branch is a built-out, post-WWII suburb where most homes date to the 1950s and 1960s, so original bathrooms are 60 to 70-plus years old. They commonly have galvanized or cast-iron supply lines, undersized slab-set drains, mid-century electrical that predates GFCI requirements, and tight, closed-off footprints. Opening up that layout for a modern walk-in shower and bringing the plumbing and electrical up to current code adds scope, which is why we quote each Farmers Branch bath after seeing what is behind the walls — then lock the price.
A bathroom remodel in Farmers Branch typically ranges from $8,000 to $60,000, depending on size, fixtures, and finish level.

Most DFW homes built since the 1990s sit on a post-tension slab: the concrete is compressed by steel cables tensioned to thousands of pounds (look for a round stamp in the garage floor or a PT note on the slab edge). Cutting or drilling that slab without locating the cables first is dangerous and expensive – a severed tendon can whip through the concrete and the repair is significant. Any remodel that moves plumbing in the floor – relocating a kitchen island sink, converting a tub to a curbless shower, adding a bathroom – must start by mapping the tendon layout from the foundation plans or an electronic slab scan, and the work is permitted and inspected. Before any contractor cuts your slab, ask exactly how they will locate the cables; at UHS every slab penetration is mapped and permitted before demolition day.
