A full bathroom remodel in Summerlin South typically runs $9,000 to $28,000, with walk-in shower installations landing between $4,500 and $12,000. The number one variable isn’t labor.

We’re Bathroom Remodeling in Summerlin South specialists, and we pull Clark County permits and ARC submittals together so your job never stalls halfway. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll walk you through what your specific home needs.

You’re calling a plumbing-and-tile family that’s been doing this for over 29 years.
What keeps Summerlin South homeowners calling us is simple: every permit gets pulled, every scope change lands on paper as a written change order, and every job carries our 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing.

Our Bathroom Remodeling Services in Summerlin South
Full Bathroom Remodeling
A full remodel in Summerlin South usually means taking a mid-1990s or early-2000s bathroom down to the studs and rebuilding it for how you live now. That includes moving plumbing, updating electrical, waterproofing, tile work, and fixtures. If your bathroom sits on an exterior wall along Town Center Drive or Hualapai Way and you want a bigger window or a relocated vent, the ARC submittal has to ride alongside the Clark County permit. We handle both, and our Bathroom Remodeling team keeps the whole schedule moving while the review committee does its work.
Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling
Walk-in showers are the most-requested upgrade we do in Summerlin South. Low-curb or zero-entry showers are popular with homeowners planning to age in place, and they’re also the remodel most likely to touch an exterior wall if you’re adding a window or moving a vent. We pull the ARC modification submittal before we touch framing. You don’t get a plastic-sheeted opening sitting there for two weeks while the association reviews your earth-tone trim sample.
Tub-to-Shower Conversion
Converting a tub to a shower in Summerlin South runs $3,500 to $10,000 depending on tile, glass, and plumbing moves. If the drain stays in the same spot and no exterior wall is touched, you’re usually looking at a Clark County plumbing permit and that’s it. The moment a window moves or a vent goes through stucco, the ARC enters the chat. We flag that on day one, not week three.
Vanities, Tile & Fixtures
We install KraftMaid vanities and Cambria quartz countertops in Summerlin South bathrooms, and we’ll help you pick tile colors the ARC will sign off on if any exterior trim or visible surfacing changes. For interior-only vanity and tile swaps, the approval chain is shorter, but the workmanship bar stays the same: level, square, and set to last through Summerlin South’s hot, dry summers and those occasional freezing winter nights near Red Rock Canyon.

Trusted Brands We Service in Summerlin South
We stock and install brands you can look up: KraftMaid and Cambria on vanities and tops, plus Techo-Bloc and Cambridge Pavers when a bathroom remodel extends to an adjoining outdoor shower or wet area landing. We carry these lines into Summerlin South every week, which means faster turnaround when a faucet, trim piece, or tile order needs to match an existing finish. No mystery brands off a van.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Summerlin South Homes
- ARC stop-work orders on exterior-wall changes. A contractor cuts a window or vent hole before the Summerlin Community Association signs off, then gets a stop-work order. That leaves a plastic-sheeted opening and a two-week standstill. We file before we frame.
- Missing earth-tone finish samples in the submittal packet. The ARC requires a finish sample for exterior trim and a tile-roof match note. Omit that, and the submittal gets kicked back for revision, pushing the permit window past the crew’s rough-in slot. We build the packet right the first time.
- Warranty-era plumbing failures. Homes built from the mid-1990s through the 2010s are now hitting the age where original supply lines and shower valves fail. We open walls and find corroded copper or brittle polybutylene. We fix the plumbing before we tile over it.
- Glass enclosure tolerance drift. Summerlin South’s soil is caliche-heavy, and slab movement over years can shift a framed opening by an eighth of an inch. A frameless glass shower enclosure needs exact tolerances. We measure, shim, and set the glass so it doesn’t bind in a year.

That last one adds $1,200 to $2,600 in drawing, admin, and wait time. Out-of-town GCs tend to miss it. We don’t. And every price change lands on a written change order before work happens, so you’ll never see a surprise invoice at the end.

The Summerlin South ARC Reality: What It Means for Your Bathroom Remodel
In Summerlin South’s 89135 ZIP, every bathroom remodel that touches an exterior wall, even moving a vent pipe or adding a window, must clear the Summerlin Community Association’s Architectural Review Committee before Clark County will issue the building permit. That dual gate adds 10 to 14 days to the calendar, and it catches out-of-town contractors who bid on paper without reading the design guidelines. The committee cares about earth-tone palettes, concrete or clay tile roofing, and approved materials. If your bathroom faces the street along Desert Foothills Drive or you’re in a Toll Brothers community near the 215 Beltway, expect the ARC to look at every exterior finish change.
We schedule around it. The submittal goes in first. While the committee reviews, we order materials, pull interior-only permits that can proceed, and stage tile and fixtures. When the ARC stamps the change, the rough-in crew is already queued, so you’re not staring at a gutted bathroom for two extra weeks. Last winter in The Ridges, our crew flagged a proposed walk-in shower that would have pushed a bathroom window two inches wider than spec, enough to trip the ARC’s earth-tone exterior trim requirement. We filed the modification submittal with the Summerlin Community Association ourselves, swapped the window to a matching casement from our spec sheet, and held the rough-in until the ARC stamped the change. The homeowner never saw a half-finished tile wall waiting on a committee.
That’s the information gain a generic bathroom remodeling page can’t give you. This is how you pair Summerlin Community Association ARC submittals with Clark County permits so a remodel never sits half-finished.

FAQs - Bathroom Remodeling in Summerlin South
If your remodel touches an exterior wall, a window, or a vent, the ARC review adds 10 to 14 days before Clark County issues the building permit. We file the ARC submittal first, then schedule materials and interior-only work during the wait, so your total timeline stays as tight as possible. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll tell you exactly which parts of your project trigger ARC review.
If you keep the same drain location, do not move a wall, and do not touch an exterior surface, you typically only need a Clark County plumbing and electrical permit. The moment a window, vent, or stucco opening changes, the Summerlin Community Association ARC submittal is required. We’ll tell you on the first visit which side of that line your project falls on.
Yes. We keep a running spec book of earth-tone and desert-palette finishes that have cleared ARC review in Summerlin South’s 89135 ZIP, and we include the required finish sample in your submittal. We’ll also verify your tile-roof match note so the packet doesn’t get kicked back. That’s part of the $1,200 to $2,600 we budget for drawing and admin when ARC review applies.
The Summerlin Community Association can issue a stop-work order and require you to undo the work at your own cost. In a worst case, the opening sits plastic-sheeted for weeks while you file a retroactive submittal and face fines. The committee works for the community, not for the contractor. We’d rather file correctly the first time and keep your project moving.
We stage the job so the ARC review window is filled with productive work: demolition, plumbing rough-in where no exterior wall is touched, tile selection, and material staging. When the ARC stamp arrives, the exterior change and final rough-in happen immediately. You’re not paying for us to wait. We’re building the schedule backward from the ARC calendar. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll show you the sequence for your specific home.
