A whole-home renovation in Dallas typically runs $95,000 to $350,000 through UHS Remodeling, with the final figure driven by square footage, how many rooms and systems you touch, and finish level. Our fixed-price model locks that number before work begins. Permits for City of Dallas homes go through the City of Dallas Permit Center at the Oak Cliff Municipal Center, with applications now submitted via the city’s DallasNow / Develop Dallas online portal. The biggest Dallas-specific cost driver is the age of the housing stock: with a median build year around 1981 and a meaningful share of pre-1940 homes in areas like the M Streets, Lakewood, and Oak Cliff, whole-home projects frequently uncover original wiring, plumbing, and foundations that need updating, plus structural work to open up closed mid-century floor plans, all of which adds scope a newer suburban home would not. For a line-item look at where the money goes, see our whole-home renovation cost guide.
Dallas is a city of older, character-rich homes, and that is exactly what makes whole-home renovation here so different from the newer DFW suburbs. The median Dallas house dates to roughly 1981, and many sit far older than that, from 1920s-1940s cottages and Tudors in the M Streets (Greenland Hills) and Lakewood to early-20th-century and midcentury homes across Oak Cliff and Kessler Park. About 41% of the city’s housing is detached single-family, often on desirable inner-city lots where original layouts feel closed-off by modern standards. UHS Remodeling renovates these homes top to bottom, opening up dated floor plans, modernizing aging systems, and reworking kitchens and baths while respecting each neighborhood’s period architecture, from Lakewood and East Dallas to the larger estates of Preston Hollow and North Dallas.
We handle whole-home renovations across Dallas, including Lakewood, Lakewood Heights, the M Streets (Greenland Hills), East Dallas, Oak Cliff and Kessler Park, Preston Hollow, and the Downtown/Reunion district.
“A Dallas whole-home is half choreography, half plumbing. The hardest part isn’t any single trade — it’s sequencing 8 trades through a single timeline without anyone tripping over the next one.”
