Bathroom remodeling in Keller, TX typically runs $9,000-$28,000 for a full gut-and-rebuild, with walk-in shower installations landing between $4,500 and $12,000.

Call (877) 610-1318 for a free estimate, and Tom Barrett will walk your bathroom with you himself.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Keller’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
We’re not a franchise dispatching strangers to Keller. Tom Barrett and his sons are on-site most days, and the crew members who show up at your door carry the Barrett & Sons name on their uniforms. Keller homeowners call us because we answer our own phone, we publish our license number where anyone can look it up, and we’ve been doing this since 1998.
Keller’s housing stock grew fast, nearly all of it between 1995 and 2008 inside master-planned communities like Woodland Springs and Hidden Lakes. That means most bathrooms we remodel sit on post-tension concrete slabs, governed by HOAs that want to see paperwork before a vent pipe moves. We know how to handle both. Our Bathroom Remodeling team has pulled permits and passed inspections on bathroom jobs throughout Keller, and we’re familiar with the architectural review process in the major HOA communities here.
Every job comes with the 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If something isn’t right, one call brings Tom back. No fine print, no arguing. That’s how we’ve kept a strong local reputation in Keller for nearly three decades.
Our Bathroom Remodeling Services in Keller
Full Bathroom Remodeling
A full bathroom remodel in Keller means gutting to the studs, reworking the layout where the post-tension slab allows it, and rebuilding with waterproofing systems that hold up to North Texas humidity swings. We handle the permit, the HOA paperwork if exterior openings change, and every written change order before a scope shift touches the job. Most full remodels in Keller run two to four weeks with a written allowance sheet for tile, fixtures, and vanities so you see every dollar before it’s spent.
Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling
Walk-in showers are the most requested Keller bathroom upgrade we build. Schluter waterproofing systems go under every tile job, and we spec frameless glass enclosures that open up the room. Where a Keller home has a post-tension slab, we bring in a concrete X-ray before cutting any drain so we never hit a tension cable. A walk-in shower installation in Keller typically runs $4,500-$12,000 depending on tile scope and glass configuration.
Tub-to-Shower Conversion
Tub-to-shower conversions are popular in the aging tract homes across 76244 and 76248, where owners want a walk-in with a low threshold instead of stepping over a tub wall. In Keller, these jobs often mean moving a drain location, which means an X-ray of the slab first. We use Schluter or Sterling systems and Grohe fixtures when you want upgrade hardware. Expect $3,500-$10,000 for a conversion that includes waterproofing, tile, glass, and fixtures.
Vanities, Tile & Fixtures
For smaller Keller bathroom refreshes that don’t require moving plumbing, we replace vanities, tile, and fixtures with materials you can look up. KraftMaid vanities, Cambria tops, and Grohe or Moen hardware are all on our standard sheets. A vanity installation alone in Keller runs $800-$3,000. These jobs still get the same written scope and the same 90-Day Done Right Promise, because a small job done wrong is still a wrong job.

Trusted Brands We Service in Keller
We stock and install Schluter waterproofing, Sterling shower systems, and Grohe fixtures because they hold up to Keller’s hard water and the humidity swings that come with North Texas summers. When you sign with Barrett & Sons, your material allowances name the brands before we order anything. You’ll never see a mystery faucet off some van. If a Grohe cartridge fails in five years, you can find the part and so can we. That’s the point of premium brands: they’re serviceable.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Keller Homes
- Post-tension slab surprises. Keller home built between 1995 and 2008? It’s almost certainly on a post-tension slab. Cutting into the slab without an X-ray scan can snap a tension cable and void the structural warranty on your foundation. We scan before every slab penetration.
- HOA stop-work orders. If your bathroom remodel changes an exterior vent, window, or wall, the Keller HOA architectural committee wants to see plans before the work starts. We’ve seen homeowners get stop-work orders for a vent pipe. We handle HOA submittals as part of the permit package.
- Waterproofing shortfalls. Cheap bids in Keller often skip the full Schluter membrane and use a liquid coating that fails in five years. By then the mold is behind the tile and the subfloor is rotten. We spec full waterproofing on every walk-in shower, every time.
- Clay soil movement cracks. Keller sits on expansive clay that shrinks in summer and heaves after rain. Houses here move. Sticking bathroom doors and diagonal drywall cracks mean the slab is shifting. Before we finalize a scope, we walk the perimeter and check for differential settlement.

FAQs - Bathroom Remodeling in Keller
Yes. Keller requires a permit for any bathroom remodel that alters plumbing, electrical, or structural elements, even if walls stay put. A vanity swap with no plumbing change might not need one, but a shower replacement or tub-to-shower conversion almost always does. We pull the permit and schedule the inspection on every eligible job. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll tell you what your scope needs before you sign anything.
If your Keller home was built between 1995 and 2008, it’s on a post-tension slab, period. Most of 76244 and 76248 fits that window. We confirm with the original structural drawings or a slab X-ray before any drain moves. Never let a contractor cut into a Keller slab without that scan. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll verify your slab type as part of the free estimate.
Yes. If your bathroom remodel changes an exterior wall, window, or vent termination, the HOA architectural committee in Keller communities like Woodland Springs or Hidden Lakes must approve the change before work starts. We prepare the submittal package and walk it through the process. Interior-only remodels that don’t change exterior openings usually skip HOA review but still need the city permit.
It can. Documented installation of a full waterproofing system like Schluter under a walk-in shower gives your insurer evidence the bathroom was built to current code, which some carriers factor into water-damage claims and renewal pricing. We provide a written scope and inspection sign-off you can file. It’s not a guaranteed premium cut, but it’s documentation a cheap bid won’t give you.
A compliant Keller bathroom quote includes a city permit, HOA submittal if exterior openings change, a slab X-ray before any drain moves, full waterproofing membrane, and written allowances for tile and fixtures. The cheap quote skips the X-ray, skips the HOA, uses a liquid coating instead of a membrane, and hands you a change order at the end. That’s the difference between a Barrett & Sons quote and the other one. Call (877) 610-1318 for a free estimate and a written scope you can keep.
Keller’s Post-Tension Reality and Why It Changes Your Bathroom Remodel
Here’s the thing about Keller most remodeling guides never touch: nearly every home built here between 1995 and 2008 sits on a post-tension concrete slab, and that slab is under tension with steel cables inside. You can’t cut into it blind. Move a toilet? The slab needs an X-ray scan first. Shift a shower drain? Same thing. In cities with pier-and-beam foundations, a plumber can crawl under the house and reroute drains in a couple hours. In Keller, every drain move runs through an engineering map of non-stressed zones. A cheap out-of-town bid that ignores this can snap a cable, void your foundation warranty, and leave you with a structural problem no bathroom remodel should ever cause.
Our crew remodeled a master bath in a 2004 Woodland Springs home where the owners wanted a curbless walk-in shower. The existing slab was post-tension, so before any demolition we brought in a concrete X-ray to locate cables; the shower drain was re-routed within non-stressed zones. We used a Kohler linear drain and a frameless glass enclosure, and the full scope of work was written with allowances for tile and fixtures, so there were no change orders at final. That’s how a Keller bathroom should be done: the slab respected, the waterproofing full, the HOA informed, and the paperwork in your hand before the first nail moves.
Keller is also land-locked now. The city ran out of greenfield lots years ago, which means every construction contractor here competes on renovations, additions, and deferred-maintenance retrofits for large HOA-governed homes. The owners have the income to do the work right, and they’ve usually been burned at least once by a company that quoted one price and billed another. We’ve spent 29 years serving this exact customer. That’s why every scope, every allowance, every change order at Barrett & Sons is in writing before work happens. An allowance that isn’t on paper is a surprise waiting for a date.
If you’re in Keller and your bathroom is showing its age, call (877) 610-1318. Tom will come out, walk the job, check the slab, check the HOA requirements, and hand you a free written estimate you can actually hold him to. No trip charge inside the county. The permit inspector works for you, not for me. That’s why I like him.
