AfterFast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across Cedar Park
A full bathroom remodel in Cedar Park typically runs $9,000 to $28,000, with small bathroom remodels landing between $5,000 and $12,000. Most projects take two to four weeks once permits clear, though jobs that involve cutting into a post-tension slab will run longer because of the GPR scanning and engineering steps that code requires. If you’re planning a remodel anywhere in the 78613 or 78630 zip codes, call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll walk you through what your specific house will actually need.
We know Cedar Park homes because we work on them every week. The production-built subdivisions along Whitestone and Parmer Lane, the older lots in Buttercup Creek, the newer builds pushing west toward the Balcones Canyonlands Preserve: each has its own quirks, and a bathroom remodel done right has to account for them. That’s the work we do at Barrett & Sons Construction.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Cedar Park’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
We’re not the newest name in Cedar Park, and that’s the point. Barrett & Sons has been owner-operated since 1998, and Tom Barrett’s sons run the crews that show up at your door. Tom publishes his name, his address, and his license number. You can look all of it up before you sign anything, and plenty of Cedar Park homeowners have.
Ask around in Forest Oaks or Anderson Mill West. Homeowners who’ve worked with us will tell you the same thing: the price on the contract is the price you pay. Every scope change, every allowance, every unforeseen condition gets put in writing as a change order before work proceeds. That matters on Cedar Park remodels more than most people expect, because the ground under these homes tends to surprise you.
We coordinate scheduling from our Austin office, but the crews serving Cedar Park live and work here. When the permit inspector is scheduled for your final walkthrough, we’re on-site. If something isn’t done right, Tom comes back. That’s our 90-Day Done Right Promise, in writing on every contract.
Our Bathroom Remodeling Services in Cedar Park
Full Bathroom Remodeling
A full Bathroom Remodeling job in Cedar Park means tearing back to studs and subfloor, then rebuilding with materials that can handle this climate. We see plenty of homes in the 78613 corridor where builder-grade drywall and cheap vapor barriers have been quietly failing behind the tile for years. We strip it, fix what’s underneath, and install materials that hold up to the humidity swings this area gets.
Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling
Walk-in showers are the most requested feature we install in Cedar Park bathrooms. A curbless or low-curb shower with a Schluter waterproofing system is a smart choice here, especially in older production homes where the subfloor has seen some movement. We handle the full rough-in: drain relocation, waterproofing, tile, glass.
Tub-to-Shower Conversion
Tub-to-shower conversions are common in Cedar Park’s late-1990s and early-2000s subdivisions, where the original fiberglass tub-and-surround combos are cracking and the homeowners want something safer and easier to enter. These jobs often reveal drainage issues that have been hidden behind the tub skirt for years. We address those before we set the new pan.
Vanities, Tile & Fixtures
We install vanities, tile, and fixtures from brands you can look up: Grohe faucets, Schluter waterproofing, Sterling tubs and shower bases. No mystery materials off a van. If you’re replacing a vanity in a Buttercup Creek home where the subfloor has settled, we’ll check the floor before we set it, so the drawers actually close a year from now.

Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Cedar Park Homes
- Drainage grades that settled toward the foundation. In the early-2000s boom subdivisions of 78613, perimeter grades were often set to builder minimums. Twenty years of shrink-swell clay movement later, many yards now slope toward the slab instead of away. A bathroom remodel that opens the walls often exposes moisture damage from water that never actually left the foundation line.
- Post-tension slab surprises. Cedar Park’s dominant housing stock sits on post-tension concrete slabs. Cutting into one for a shower drain relocation without locating the embedded steel cables first can sever a tensioned tendon. That’s a structural repair that can top $15,000, and homeowner’s insurance may deny the claim as contractor error. We GPR-scan before any slab cut.
- Builder-grade waterproofing failures. Late-1990s production homes in Cedar Park frequently used basic building paper or thin poly behind tub surrounds. Once that fails, mold grows inside the wall cavity. By the time a homeowner sees the tile cracking, the damage behind it is often extensive.
- Hail-corridor exterior envelope issues. Cedar Park sits in a severe hail corridor. A bathroom remodel that doesn’t address the exterior wall assembly, especially on second-story bathrooms or walls facing prevailing storm directions, can leave a new shower vulnerable to wind-driven water intrusion.
Pricing for Bathroom Remodeling in Cedar Park, TX
Bathroom remodel pricing in Cedar Park is driven by three things: the size of the bathroom, the condition of the slab and drain grade, and the material selections you make. Here’s what we’re seeing in the current market:
| Service | Typical Range in Cedar Park |
|---|---|
| Bathroom Remodel | $9,000 - $28,000 |
| Small Bathroom Remodel | $5,000 - $12,000 |
| Walk-In Shower Installation | $4,500 - $12,000 |
| Tub-to-Shower Conversion | $3,500 - $10,000 |
These are honest ranges, not teaser numbers. A tub-to-shower conversion in a Forest Oaks home with good drainage and no slab surprises will land near the low end. A master bath gut in a 78613 home with settled perimeter grading and a slab cut required for drain relocation will push toward the high end. We give free estimates with written, line-item scopes. Call (877) 610-1318 and you’ll know exactly what your project costs before you commit.

FAQs - Bathroom Remodeling in Cedar Park
Because many Cedar Park subdivisions built during the early-2000s boom had perimeter drainage set to builder minimum spec, and two decades of expansive-clay movement has since settled those grades toward the slab. If the drain grade no longer slopes away from the foundation, the inspector may not sign off on the remodel until the grading is corrected. We include a drainage check in every bathroom scope and issue a written change order if regrading is needed. Call (877) 610-1318 for an estimate that accounts for your yard’s actual condition.
Yes. Any slab cut in a post-tension concrete foundation requires locating the embedded steel tendons first, typically via GPR scanning, and the plan must be reviewed as part of the plumbing rough-in permit. The City of Cedar Park’s inspection process requires documentation that the cut location, size, and method are acceptable. We handle all of that, including the permits and inspections. Don’t let anyone cut into your slab without scanning it first.
It can help you. When a remodel includes written documentation that drainage grades are corrected and storm-rated materials are installed, that’s evidence your home’s risk profile has improved. Some insurers will re-rate a property after major plumbing and drainage corrections. Having the inspection sign-offs and change orders on file also protects you if a future water-damage claim is filed. We hand you the paperwork at the end of the job.
At minimum, the scope should include a continuous storm-rated weather barrier behind the shower wall assembly, proper flashing at the exterior wall intersection, and a waterproofing system that extends past the shower footprint. In a hail corridor like Cedar Park’s, standard building paper isn’t enough. We write all of this into the scope of work before the first nail moves. Call (877) 610-1318 for a free estimate with a complete written scope.
Because so many Cedar Park homes were built quickly during the boom, and what’s behind the walls is often worse than expected. When a contractor uses vague allowances, those discoveries turn into surprise invoices. An allowance that isn’t on paper is a surprise waiting for a date. We put every allowance in writing and every price change arrives as a written change order before the work proceeds. You’re never guessing.
