A fixed-price bathroom project from our Plano-based DFW team serving Little Elm 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 Little Elm 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.
Bathroom remodels in Little Elm typically run $8,000 to $60,000, depending on scope. A guest or hall bath refresh sits at the lower end, while a full primary-suite bath with a curbless shower, freestanding tub, custom tile, and a relocated layout lands toward the top. Most homes here were built in the 2000s-2010s, which keeps demolition predictable, but it also means a strong demand for swapping out builder-grade garden tubs and cultured-marble tops for higher-end finishes that drive cost. Permits and inspections for bathroom work go through the Town of Little Elm Building Safety Division (Development Services), submitted online via the Town’s MyGov portal; note Little Elm is officially a Town with its own building department. A common local cost driver is converting an oversized garden tub into a tiled walk-in shower, which means moving plumbing and waterproofing the whole wet area. UHS works on a fixed-price model, so your quote is locked before demolition starts. For a line-item look at where the money goes, see our DFW home remodel cost guide.
We remodel bathrooms across Little Elm, including Paloma Creek, Sunset Pointe, Union Park, Wildridge, Del Webb at Union Park, and the Ladera 55+ community.
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 Little Elm 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 Little Elm.
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 Little Elm 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.”
Little Elm is one of the newest towns in Denton County, so the bathrooms we remodel here look very different from the century-old homes in older DFW suburbs. With a typical home built around the 2000s or 2010s (most date to that suburban boom on the eastern shore of Lewisville Lake), the issue usually isn’t age or rot. It’s builder-grade spec finishes that have simply dated out: cultured-marble vanity tops, garden tubs nobody uses, beige tile, and cramped primary baths in tract floor plans across Paloma Creek, Sunset Pointe, Wildridge, and Union Park. UHS Remodeling rebuilds these into the spaces homeowners actually wanted, from curbless walk-in showers and freestanding soaking tubs to dual-vanity primary suites. In the town’s growing 55+ communities like Del Webb at Union Park and Ladera, we also handle aging-in-place bathroom conversions designed for long-term comfort and accessibility.
From our Plano bathroom remodel case study — curbless spa bath on a slab foundation.
Renderings from our design studies — the finished Plano projects are above.
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 Little Elm 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 Little Elm bathroom includes a full waterproofing membrane and a 3-year workmanship warranty.
Ranges are for a typical 60–150 sq ft Little Elm 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.

Bathroom remodels in Little Elm generally range from $8,000 to $60,000. A straightforward guest-bath update is at the lower end, while a full primary bath with a curbless walk-in shower, freestanding tub, custom tile, and a reconfigured layout reaches the higher end. UHS Remodeling uses a fixed-price model, so your number is set before work begins.
Yes. Bathroom remodels that involve plumbing, electrical, or layout changes are permitted through the Town of Little Elm Building Safety Division (Development Services Department), submitted online via the Town’s MyGov portal. Little Elm is officially a Town with its own building department, so permits are issued by the Town rather than Denton County. UHS handles the permitting and inspections for your project.
Absolutely, that’s most of what we do here. Since the majority of Little Elm homes were built in the 2000s and 2010s, the most common request is replacing dated builder-spec finishes, like cultured-marble vanity tops, beige tile, and unused garden tubs, with walk-in showers, freestanding tubs, and modern dual vanities. We also build aging-in-place bathrooms for the town’s 55+ communities such as Del Webb at Union Park and Ladera.
A bathroom remodel in Little Elm typically ranges from $8,000 to $60,000, depending on size, fixtures, and finish level.
Usually the tile labor and any plumbing relocation, then the shower system – glass, valve, and waterproofing – and the vanity. A full bathroom remodel in Little Elm runs $8,000 to $60,000 depending on those choices.
Bathroom remodel costs in Little Elm range from $20,000 for an upgraded guest bath to $55,000+ for a full luxury master spa suite. Most Little Elm homeowners spend $34,000-$46,000 on a full custom master bathroom with freestanding tub, frameless walk-in shower, natural stone or marble-look porcelain, heated floors, and premium Kohler, Brizo, or Moen fixtures.
Labor and tile work are typically the two largest line items, each running 22-28% of the total. Plumbing fixtures follow at 14-20%, and vanity cabinetry at 10-14%.
An upgraded guest bath or powder room takes 4-6 weeks of on-site construction. A full custom master bathroom runs 6-9 weeks. A luxury master spa suite takes 9-12 weeks. Add 3-5 weeks before demolition for design, fixture ordering, and permitting.
Yes. The Town of Little Elm Building Inspection Department requires permits for any bathroom remodel involving plumbing rough-in changes, electrical modifications, or structural work. UHS handles the entire permitting process.
For most Little Elm homeowners, replacing the rarely-used garden tub with a larger frameless walk-in shower delivers daily usable luxury. A freestanding soaking tub in a corner preserves the sculptural element without the clunky footprint.
Tier 1: Moen, Delta Trinsic, Kohler Alteo or Purist. Tier 2: Kohler Artifacts, Brizo Rook or Litze. Tier 3: Brizo Invari, Waterworks, premium Kohler. Freestanding tubs from Signature Hardware, Kohler, or MTI.
Large-format porcelain in marble-look patterns is the best value – 40-60% less than real stone with zero maintenance. Natural quartzite and honed marble are the upgrade options for Tier 2 and Tier 3 projects.
Yes. Radiant heated floors are a standard upgrade on Tier 2 and Tier 3 Little Elm bathroom projects. Upgrade cost is typically $1,800-$3,500 and is one of the highest-value additions you can make.
Yes. We coordinate so the household can use a secondary bath during construction. Dust containment with plastic barriers, floor protection, and scheduled plumbing shutdowns minimize disruption.

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.
