AfterFast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across Missouri City
Bathroom remodeling in Missouri City typically runs $9,000-$28,000 for a full gut-and-replace, while a small bathroom remodel lands between $5,000-$12,000. Most of the jobs we take on in the 77459 and 77489 zip codes are done in two to three weeks once permits clear. If you’re weighing a tub-to-shower conversion or a full master bath overhaul, call Barrett & Sons Construction at (877) 610-1318 for a free written estimate we can put in your hand before any work starts.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Missouri City’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
Tom Barrett founded this company in 1998, and his sons run the crews that pull into Missouri City driveways in 77459 and 77489. That matters here more than in most Houston suburbs because Missouri City is one of the few places around where a single street can split Harris County from Fort Bend County. A bathroom remodel off Murphy Road might need a Harris County permit, while a project in Sienna Plantation off Sienna Parkway goes through Fort Bend County and then through the Sienna HOA’s Residential Design Committee before a single permit is issued. We verify the governing county for your specific parcel before we file anything. That’s not a detail we leave to chance, and it’s not a detail you should leave to an out-of-area contractor who shows up once and phones it in.
Our Bathroom Remodeling team has worked in the older Quail Valley ranch homes off Cartwright Road with their 1970s slab foundations and clay-shift damage, and we’ve worked in the newer Sienna phases where builder-grade vanities and fiberglass shower surrounds get replaced within the first three years. We know which inspections matter in each part of town. We know the difference between a 77459 HOA submission and a 77489 straight-to-county permit. That local knowledge keeps your project moving instead of stalled on a neighbor’s porch waiting for the wrong inspector to show up.
Every Missouri City job includes permits pulled by us and inspections signed before we call it done. Every price change arrives as a written change order before the work happens. And every completed bathroom carries our 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing. Tom’s name, address, and license number are published and verifiable. A live person answers our phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You won’t get a call center in another state.
Our Bathroom Remodeling Services in Missouri City
Full Bathroom Remodeling
A full bathroom remodel in Missouri City usually means taking the room down to the studs, re-roughing the plumbing to current code, and rebuilding it with new waterproofing, tile, fixtures, and lighting. In older 77489 homes near Texas Parkway, that often includes addressing subfloor damage from decades of Beaumont clay movement. In 77459’s newer homes, it’s more often about ripping out builder-grade fiberglass and putting in something you actually chose. You’ll get fixed pricing with allowances for every material in writing. No surprise invoices at the end.
Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling
A walk-in shower installation in Missouri City runs $4,500-$12,000 depending on tile, glass, and whether we’re moving plumbing. We use Schluter waterproofing systems on every shower we build in Missouri City, because the humidity in this part of Texas will find any shortcut in a waterproofing layer. Frameless glass enclosures are a common ask in Sienna’s newer homes, especially the master baths. We measure, order, and install the glass ourselves.
Tub-to-Shower Conversion
For a lot of Missouri City homeowners, the tub that came with the house never gets used. A tub-to-shower conversion runs $3,500-$10,000 here, and it’s the single most popular bathroom change we make in both Quail Valley and Sienna. A low-threshold shower is easier to get in and out of, which matters just as much to a fifty-something homeowner thinking about the next twenty years as it does to anyone with mobility trouble. We handle the drain re-route, the waterproofing, the tile, and the glass.
Vanities, Tile & Fixtures
Bathroom vanity installation in Missouri City runs $800-$3,000 for most replacements. We stock Grohe and Sterling fixtures locally, so a Missouri City client doesn’t wait two weeks for a shower valve to arrive from a warehouse in Dallas. When a client off Quail Valley Drive wants a built-in vanity with soft-close drawers and a quartz top, we order it, install it, and make sure the plumbing lines up without shims and gaps. Tile work is done by the same crew from start to finish, not handed off to a subcontractor we’ve never met.

Trusted Brands We Service in Missouri City
We carry and install brands you can look up before you sign anything: Schluter for shower waterproofing, Grohe for faucets and shower valves, Sterling for tubs and surrounds, and Kohler for vanities and fixtures when requested. We don’t pull mystery brands off a van and call them “contractor grade.” If you’re in Missouri City and want a specific finish or fixture line, tell us during the estimate. We’ll put the exact model numbers in your written scope and source them before demo day.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Missouri City Homes
- Split-county permit confusion. A bathroom on one side of a Missouri City street can fall under Harris County rules while the other side falls under Fort Bend County. Filing with the wrong authority stalls the job and can trigger a stop-work order. We verify county jurisdiction by parcel address before we file anything.
- Clay-soil subfloor damage in older homes. Quail Valley and other 1970s-1980s neighborhoods sit on Beaumont clay that expands and contracts with moisture. We regularly find cracked tile, shifted subfloors, and compromised shower pans in 77489 homes. Sometimes it’s a simple repair; sometimes a section of subfloor has to come out. We’ll tell you which before we start.
- Sienna HOA design review requirements. In 77459, if your bathroom remodel changes an exterior wall, window, or vent location, the Sienna Residential Design Committee has to approve it before Fort Bend County will accept a permit application. Out-of-area contractors miss this step routinely. We’ve pulled enough Sienna approvals to know the forms and the sequence.
- Builder-grade materials failing early. Newer Missouri City homes, especially in Sienna’s latest phases, often have fiberglass shower surrounds and hollow-core vanities that look fine on closing day and start showing wear within a few years. Walk-in shower replacement and vanity swaps are common in homes that are only three to seven years old.
Pricing for Bathroom Remodeling in Missouri City, TX
Missouri City bathroom remodel pricing tracks Houston metro labor and material costs, but local permit and HOA requirements add a few extra steps that can extend timelines by a week or three. What you’ll pay depends on the scope of the job, but here’s what we quote most often in 77459 and 77489:
| Bathroom Remodeling Service | Typical Range | What’s Included |
|---|---|---|
| Bathroom Remodel | $9,000-$28,000 | Gut to studs, plumbing re-rough, waterproofing, tile, fixtures, vanity, lighting, paint |
| Small Bathroom Remodel | $5,000-$12,000 | Hall bath or half bath, new tile, vanity, fixtures, paint |
| Walk-In Shower Installation | $4,500-$12,000 | Schluter waterproofing, tile, glass, plumbing as needed |
| Tub-to-Shower Conversion | $3,500-$10,000 | Tub removal, drain re-route, waterproofing, tile, glass, trim |
| Shower Replacement | $3,000-$8,500 | Shower pan and wall replacement, tile or surround, fixtures |
| Bathroom Vanity Installation | $800-$3,000 | Vanity replacement, counter top and sink, faucet, P-trap |
Those are real numbers from Missouri City jobs, not a national cost chart. The biggest cost drivers are layout changes that move plumbing, waterproofing scope, tile selection, and whether the job is in a flood-zone parcel that changes floor-height requirements. We give free estimates, and we put every allowance and line item in writing before you commit. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll come to your home in Missouri City, walk the room, and write you a number you can hold us to.

FAQs - Bathroom Remodeling in Missouri City
Your permit comes from whichever county has jurisdiction over your specific parcel, and the only reliable way to know is to check the parcel address against county tax and permit records. Missouri City is a split-county suburb: homes in 77489 near Quail Valley and Texas Parkway generally fall under Harris County, while homes in 77459 including Sienna Plantation generally fall under Fort Bend County, but there are exceptions along the boundary. Barrett & Sons verifies the county for every Missouri City address before we file a permit application. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll look it up during your estimate.
Interior-only changes like replacing a vanity, swapping fixtures, or re-tiling a shower do not require Sienna HOA approval. You do need approval from the Residential Design Committee if the remodel changes an exterior wall, window, vent location, or roofline. That’s the threshold we tell every 77459 client. We’ll pull HOA forms and handle the submission before the Fort Bend County permit application goes in, so the two approvals don’t stall each other. Call (877) 610-1318 for exact guidance on your specific house.
Not always. In many Quail Valley and older Missouri City slab homes, the clay movement has cracked tile and shifted a subfloor but not caused structural foundation failure. We assess what’s there when we open the room. If the subfloor is damaged from moisture or movement, we replace the impacted section and re-level the floor before tile work. If the slab itself shows serious movement, we’ll tell you to get a foundation inspection before you spend money on tile. In one 1980s Quail Valley ranch this year, our crew replaced a rotted subfloor and re-roughed aging plumbing before installing a tub-to-shower conversion. The county inspection signed off the same week. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll give you a straight answer after looking at your floor.
A tub-to-shower conversion in Missouri City runs $3,500-$10,000, with most jobs landing between $5,000 and 8,000 once tile, glass, and plumbing changes are settled. The price includes tub removal, drain re-route, Schluter waterproofing, tile or surround, shower glass, and trim work. Allowances for tile and fixtures are written into your contract before demo day. Call (877) 610-1318 for a free estimate and we’ll quote your specific bathroom.
It can. Missouri City has a significant share of parcels with FEMA flood zone designations, especially near Oyster Creek and the Brazos River floodplain. If your remodel counts as a substantial improvement (over 50% of the home’s value), the county may require an elevation certificate and could dictate a higher finished floor height before you’re allowed to close up the room. We identify flood-zone status for every Missouri City parcel before we scope a full remodel. If your bathroom is in a flood-designated area, we’ll tell you up front what that means for your budget and your timeline. Call (877) 610-1318 for a careful, parcel-specific answer.
