We know Allen not from a map but from the inside of its homes. The neighborhoods off Stacy Road, Exchange Parkway, and McDermott Drive all share a familiar story: master-planned subdivisions built fast in the 1990s and 2000s, now hitting the age where original bathrooms start showing their years. That’s exactly the work we do.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Allen’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
Tom Barrett founded this company in 1998, and his sons run crews that work in Allen regularly. When you call, you’re not reaching a dispatch center in another state. You’re reaching people who know what a post-tension slab on Blackland Prairie clay does to a doorway, and who look at framing before they tile over it.
Homeowners in Allen keep our number for one reason: the price on the contract matches the price on the final bill. Every allowance, every change, every scope adjustment arrives as a written change order before the work happens. If something isn’t right when we finish, the 90-Day Done Right Promise means one phone call brings Tom back. It’s written on the contract, not buried in fine print.
We pull permits and get inspections signed on every eligible remodel. The inspector’s signature is your protection, and we like that arrangement just fine. Our crew members are background-checked and uniformed, and they carry the Barrett & Sons name on their shirts because they’re part of the family operation, not strangers off a van.

Our Bathroom Remodeling Services in Allen
Full Bathroom Remodeling
A full remodel means gutting the room to studs and rebuilding it properly. In Allen homes built between 1993 and 2012, we often find the same builder-grade framing, the same fiberglass tubs, and the same undersized exhaust fans, so we know what’s behind the drywall before we open it. We handle demolition, framing corrections, waterproofing, plumbing, electrical, tile, fixtures, and final trim, with Schluter waterproofing systems as our standard behind tile and in shower pans.

Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling
Walk-in shower installations in Allen run $4,500 to $12,000 depending on size, tile selections, and whether you want a curbless entry. Many homeowners in Twin Creeks and Watters Crossing are replacing original fiberglass tub-shower combos with low-curb or curbless showers as they think about staying in the home long-term. We build with Schluter Kerdi membrane and pan systems, and we frame for grab-bar blocking whether you ask for bars today or think you might later.

Tub-to-Shower Conversion
A tub-to-shower conversion in Allen typically costs $3,500 to $10,000 and is one of the most common projects we do in the 75013 ZIP code. Removing a 1990s builder tub, capping the lines correctly, and installing a properly sloped, waterproofed shower floor changes how the whole bathroom feels. We address the subfloor and check for any slab movement before setting the new pan because Allen’s expansive clay doesn’t give a contractor a pass on prep work.

Vanities, Tile & Fixtures
Vanity installation in Allen runs $800 to $3,000, and we install the vanity you buy or one we source through our supplier network. We carry Grohe and Sterling fixtures and can order Schluter trim to match your tile package. A vanity swap often pairs with new tile and a fixture update when the floor plan stays put but the room needs a visible lift.

Trusted Brands We Service in Allen
We install materials you can look up: Schluter for waterproofing and shower systems, Sterling for tubs and shower bases, and Grohe for fixtures. If you’ve got a brand you prefer from a showroom on Stacy Road, we’ll work with that too. Because our crews serve Allen every week, we’re not pricing in a long materials run or a special-order markup for parts most local suppliers already stock.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Allen Homes
- Expansive clay movement behind the tile. Allen sits on Blackland Prairie soil that shrinks in drought and swells with rain. After 20 to 30 years, that movement shows up as hairline cracks in shower corners and grout lines that open up seasonally. We inspect for slab movement before we set tile, because a remodel that ignores the foundation will crack again.
- Racked door frames from post-tension slab settlement. In the 1990s subdivisions like Ridgeview Ranch, interior door frames are often visibly out of square. When we hang a new bathroom door or install a framed glass enclosure, we account for the existing rack rather than forcing a plumb line that fights the house.
- Undersized exhaust fans and trapped humidity. The original fans in Allen’s tract-built homes were often minimum-code and loud. In a remodel, we recommend and install properly sized ventilation because North Texas summers push humidity levels that will peel paint and feed mildew in a tightly built bathroom.
- Builder-grade fiberglass tubs and surrounds failing at once. Because so many Allen homes share the same build era and builder packages, we see entire streets where original tub surrounds are cracking, yellowing, or leaking around the flange at the same time. The good news: we’ve done enough of these that we can price accurately and move efficiently.

Only if the scope changes, and only then with a written change order you approve before the work proceeds. We do not play the game of a low phone quote followed by a surprise bill at the door. Allowances are in writing, changes are in writing, and if the job hits an unknown condition behind the wall, we stop, show you what we found, and put the adjustment on paper before moving forward.
Yes, we pull permits and get inspections signed on every eligible bathroom remodel. The permit inspector works for you, not for us, and that’s exactly why we like the process. A contractor who says permits are optional is telling you something important about how they’ll handle the rest of the job.

We’ll give you a schedule in writing before we start, and if something changes the timeline, you’ll hear it from us directly. Call (877) 610-1318 to get your project on the calendar.
