AfterFast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across Trophy Club
If you’re planning a bathroom remodel in Trophy Club, you’re looking at a typical investment of $9,000 to $28,000 depending on scope, and the work takes about two to five weeks once approvals clear. What most homeowners don’t realize until mid-project is that Trophy Club has a two-stage approval process unlike almost any surrounding town: you need written sign-off from the HOA’s Architectural Review Committee before the Town of Trophy Club will even accept a permit application. That step alone can add two to four weeks if it’s not sequenced right, and we handle it from day one so you’re never standing in a gutted bathroom wondering why the inspector hasn’t shown up. Call us at (877) 610-1318 and we’ll walk you through exactly what your project needs before the first tile comes up.

Bathroom Remodeling in Trophy Club Starts With Two Approvals, Not One
Here’s what out-of-town contractors miss about Trophy Club: the Town’s building department will not accept a permit application for work that touches an exterior wall, vent, or window until the HOA’s Architectural Review Committee has issued written ARC approval first. That’s not common across the metroplex. In Keller or Roanoke, you pull the Town permit and go. In Trophy Club, the sequence matters, and a contractor who skips ARC submission will get red-tagged mid-rough-in, pay a stop-work fine, and put you in the middle of a dispute you didn’t create.
We’ve been doing Bathroom Remodeling long enough to know that the ARC wants specifics: vent relocation plans, window replacement ratings, exterior color matches, and drainage logic for anything that changes how water flows off your home. Our quotes include the ARC package, the Town permit, and the inspection sign-offs. When you sign with us, you get every approval step named in writing before demolition starts. That’s how a project stays on schedule.
And it’s not just paperwork. The lot you live on matters. Trophy Club sits on the expansive black clay soils of the Cross Timbers region, and a significant share of homes back directly to the Trophy Club Country Club golf course. Clay moves with the wet-dry cycle, which means subfloors flex, shower pans crack, and tile grout fails earlier than it should if the substrate wasn’t prepped for movement. We plan for that on every bathroom remodel in the 76262, because ignoring it is how you get a leaky shower a year after the glass goes in.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Trophy Club’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
Barrett & Sons is owner-operated, and Tom Barrett’s name, address, and license number are published and verifiable. Look us up before you sign anything. We’ve been at this since 1998, and the crew members on your job carry the Barrett & Sons name and have been background-checked before they ever walk through your door. In Trophy Club, where most homes were built between the mid-1990s and 2010s, that matters: we’ve seen the original builder materials, the compacted clay pads, and the HOA design guidelines enough to know what your remodel will actually encounter once the drywall opens up.
Calls are answered by a live person 24/7, not a voicemail box in another state. When a Trophy Club homeowner calls with a question about their ARC submission or wants to see a written change order before a vent gets relocated, a person answers. Tom and his sons are on-site most days. We live twenty minutes away. If something’s not right, we want to know about it.
Our Bathroom Remodeling Services in Trophy Club
Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling
A lot of Trophy Club homeowners are converting dated tub-shower combos into curbless walk-in showers, especially in the original master baths on homes around Trophy Club Drive. We spec waterproofing like Schluter membranes as standard, because the black clay under your slab moves, and a shower built on a flexing subfloor leaks within a year. Walk-in shower installation in Trophy Club typically runs $4,500 to $12,000 depending on glass, tile, and whether we’re moving walls.
Tub-to-Shower Conversion
If you’re coming out of a builder-grade alcove tub and going to a walk-in shower, this is the one that touches plumbing, venting, and sometimes an exterior wall for the new window or exhaust fan. That means HOA ARC review first, then Town permit. We handle both, and tub-to-shower conversions in Trophy Club generally land between $3,500 and $10,000. We’ll quote the full scope in writing, line by line, before a single nail moves.
Frameless Glass Shower Enclosures
Frameless glass adds visible value in Trophy Club homes, especially master baths where the natural light off the golf course side of the house is worth keeping. We measure and install frameless enclosures with certified installers, and we’ll tell you straight if an opening needs structural reinforcement before glass goes in. No surprises, no change orders you didn’t approve in writing.
Vanities, Tile & Fixtures
Vanity installation in Trophy Club runs $800 to $3,000, and a Kohler fixture upgrade typically falls between $800 and $3,000. We carry premium brands you can look up, and we’ll match the ARC’s expectations for anything visible from the street or the golf course path. If you’re replacing a vanity, re-tiling a shower, and changing fixtures at the same time, bundling the work usually saves you two to three days of mobilization and setup.

Trusted Brands We Service in Trophy Club
We install plumbing fixtures and hardware from Kohler, Moen, and Delta, along with tile and glass from suppliers that carry documented wind-load and moisture ratings where local code checks require them. We don’t bring mystery brands off a van. If you’re replacing an exhaust fan or window as part of the remodel, we’ll show you the rating before it’s ordered. Trophy Club inspections check those details, and so do we. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll walk you through what your specific project needs.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Trophy Club Homes
- HOA ARC approval skipped. A contractor pulls the Town permit first, gets red-tagged mid-rough-in, and the homeowner is left with a stop-work order and an awkward conversation with the HOA management office. The fix is simple: get ARC written approval before anything else moves.
- Subfloor flex from clay settlement. Homes built on Trophy Club’s black clay pads shift with the seasons, and an original shower pan that looked fine before demolition can reveal a half-inch sag once tile comes up. We sister joists and add membrane waterproofing so the new shower doesn’t leak within a year.
- Bath fan or window relocation without wind-load checks. Move a window or add an exhaust fan on an exterior wall and fail to document the wind-load rating, and the Town’s inspection won’t sign off. We check that before we order anything.
- Tile and glass finished before the subfloor is addressed. This is the expensive one. Finish work goes in, the shower looks beautiful, and nine months later the grout cracks and water gets under the tile because the substrate was never corrected. We fix the floor before the finishing trades touch the room.
Pricing for Bathroom Remodeling in Trophy Club, TX
An honest number matters. A full bathroom remodel in Trophy Club runs $9,000 to $28,000. A small bathroom remodel lands between $5,000 and $12,000. What moves the price: whether you’re moving walls, changing plumbing rough-ins, replacing windows or exterior vents (which triggers ARC and wind-load documentation), and how much tile and glass you’re installing. We write every allowance and every price change as a change order before work proceeds. The allowance that isn’t on paper is a surprise waiting for a date. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll give you a written line-item quote, not a phone number somebody guessed at.

How the Trophy Club Approval Process Actually Works
If your bathroom remodel touches an exterior wall, a window, or an exhaust vent, here’s the sequence that keeps the job legal and on time. First, we prepare a scope in writing and submit it to the HOA’s Architectural Review Committee. The ARC reviews vent relocation plans, window ratings, exterior color matches, and anything visible from the street or golf course. Once they issue written approval, we take that approval with the project scope to the Town of Trophy Club building department and pull the municipal permit. Only then does demolition start. The permit inspector works for you, not for me. That’s why I like him. When both sign-offs are in hand, every change gets a written change order before any work moves.
Skip step one and the Town won’t accept the application. We handle the whole sequence, and we’ll show you the approval paper trail at every step. A few weeks back we reframed a load-bearing wall for a walk-in shower in a 2004 builder home off Trophy Club Drive. The ARC wanted our vent relocation plan in writing before permit sign-off, and the original subfloor had sagged half an inch from years of shower pan condensation on that black clay pad. We sistered the joists, added a Schluter membrane, and kept the job moving with a written change order that matched the ARC-approved plan line for line. That’s the kind of thing you only learn by doing it here.
Wind-Load Requirements and Why They Show Up on Bathroom Remodels
You wouldn’t think a bathroom remodel has much to do with wind, but Trophy Club sits in North Texas’s active hail corridor and the Town’s code enforcement checks exterior penetrations carefully. Move a window or add a bath exhaust fan through an exterior wall, and the inspector will want documentation that the new opening meets wind-load ratings for the wall assembly. A cheap quote leaves that out. A compliant quote includes the rated product, the installation detail, and the inspection sign-off. That documentation matters later, too. Your homeowner’s insurance company can ask for permit records and wind-load documentation if you ever file a claim after a storm. If the work was done right and on paper, the claim is cleaner. If it wasn’t, the claim gets harder. We’ve seen both happen. We’ll make sure your remodel leaves a paper trail you’ll be glad to have.
Do You Need to Worry About Black Clay Soil When Remodeling a Bathroom?
Yes. Trophy Club sits on expansive shrink-swell clay from the Cross Timbers zone. The wet-dry cycle causes measurable foundation heave and settlement every year, and that movement travels into subfloors, shower pans, and tile grout. A bathroom remodel that ignores the substrate is a renovation with a ticking clock. We check the floor for flex before we set tile or install glass, and we correct it with joist reinforcement and membrane waterproofing where it’s needed. It adds a few hundred dollars and a day or two to a typical job. It’s cheaper than tearing out a leaking shower a year after the first guest uses it.

FAQs - Bathroom Remodeling in Trophy Club
Trophy Club is a master-planned, HOA-governed community, and its deed structure requires the Architectural Review Committee’s written approval before the Town of Trophy Club’s building department will accept a permit application for work touching exterior walls, vents, or windows. The Town won’t process the permit without the ARC letter. We submit the ARC package first, get the written approval, then pull the Town permit. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll handle the full sequence for you.
Yes. If you’re changing a window or adding a bath fan that penetrates an exterior wall, the Town’s inspection will check that the new opening meets wind-load ratings for the wall assembly. We spec rated products, document the installation detail, and keep the inspection sign-off on file. That matters for your permit record and for any future insurance claim. Free estimate: (877) 610-1318.
It can, especially in Trophy Club’s hail and storm corridor. If you file a claim for water damage or storm-related issues and the adjuster finds remodeled work without a permit or inspection record, the claim can get complicated. We pull permits, pass inspections, and keep your documentation in order so the paper trail is there when you need it. Call us for a free estimate on a properly documented remodel.
You do. Trophy Club’s expansive clay moves with the wet-dry cycle, and that movement flexes subfloors, shower pans, and tile grout. We inspect for floor flex before setting tile or installing glass, and we correct it with joist reinforcement and membrane waterproofing. It’s a small cost compared to a leaking shower a year later. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll tell you what your specific floor shows.
The HOA’s Architectural Review Committee wants a written scope that covers any vent relocation plan, window replacement rating, exterior color match, and drainage logic for changes that affect how water flows off your home. We prepare that package in full, submit it before demolition starts, and show you the written approval before we pull the Town permit. It’s the fastest way to keep the job legal and moving. Call (877) 610-1318 for a free consultation.
