A bathroom remodel is one of the highest-ROI projects a homeowner can make — and one of the most rewarding to live with every day. Here’s how we turned one Plano master bath from dated and cramped into a daily retreat that feels like a spa.
The Challenge
Our Plano clients had a master bathroom that hadn’t been updated since the house was built. A standard fiberglass tub/shower insert, a single vanity with limited storage, old tile flooring, and builder-grade hardware. They wanted the space to feel like a calm, intentional retreat — somewhere they actually enjoyed being first thing in the morning and last thing at night.
Our Approach
Curbless walk-in shower with large-format tile. No step to enter, floor-to-ceiling tile, rainfall + handheld heads, and a linear drain for a clean look.
Freestanding soaking tub as the centerpiece. Positioned to get natural light from the window, with a floor-mounted filler.
Double vanity with quartz counters. Custom cabinetry with plenty of drawer storage, undermount sinks, and modern matte-black fixtures.
Porcelain tile flooring with radiant heat. One of our favorite upgrades — warm floors under bare feet on cold mornings.
Lighting designed for the space. Dimmable vanity lights, recessed ceiling cans, and a statement pendant over the tub — all on separate switches.
Technical Project Details
Project Overview & Architecture
This Plano primary bathroom was rebuilt as a spa: black marble walls, a black freestanding soaking tub positioned to catch natural light, a curbless walk-in shower in large-format tile, and a double vanity under LED mirrors. The brief was calm, dark, and deliberate — matte-black fixtures against stone, warm dimmable lighting, and radiant-heated floors underfoot on winter mornings.
The Structural Challenge
A curbless shower is the most engineering-dense element in modern bathroom design. With no curb to contain water, the floor itself does the work: the pan must be recessed and precisely sloped toward a linear drain so water goes exactly where it should. On slab-on-grade North Texas homes — the standard here, sitting over expansive Blackland Prairie clay — recessing a pan and adjusting drain lines means working inside the concrete, which is planned around what is embedded in the slab before demolition starts. The freestanding tub added its own requirement: a floor-mounted tub filler is supplied through the floor, not the wall, so its rough-in has to be set early and set right. Behind the marble and tile, waterproofing continuity is the invisible layer that decides whether a bathroom like this stays perfect for decades.

Shower: curbless entry, floor-to-ceiling large-format tile, linear drain, rainfall and handheld shower heads.

Vanity: double vanity with custom cabinetry, quartz counters, undermount sinks, matte-black fixtures, and LED dual vanity mirrors.
