Fast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across Azle
A full bathroom remodel in Azle, TX typically runs $9,000 to $28,000, and most projects take two to four weeks depending on what we find when the walls come open. That last part matters more in Azle than almost anywhere else in the metroplex, because half the town sits in Tarrant County and the other half in Parker County, and the permit you need depends on which side of an invisible line your lot falls on. We’re Barrett & Sons Construction, and we’ve been remodeling bathrooms across Azle long enough to know exactly where that line runs and what it means for your schedule and your budget. Call Tom’s team at (877) 610-1318, and we’ll walk your bathroom with you and put everything in writing before we touch a single tile.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Azle’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
Tom Barrett put his name on this company in 1998, and his sons run the crews that show up in Azle. That’s not a marketing line. When you call (877) 610-1318, a live person answers, and the person who shows up to look at your bathroom is the same person who will be on-site during the job. We don’t dispatch strangers.
Azle homeowners tell us the same story again and again: a national outfit quoted one number over the phone, then handed them a different invoice after demolition. We handle it differently. Every scope item, every allowance, every price change arrives as a written change order before the work happens. If a surprise is hiding behind your tub surround, you’ll know what it costs and you’ll approve it in writing before we move forward. That’s how a neighbor treats a neighbor, and it’s why we keep getting called back to Bathroom Remodeling in Azle jobs year after year.
The 90-Day Done Right Promise backs every bathroom we remodel in Azle, and it’s written on the contract, not hidden in fine print. If something isn’t right, one call brings Tom back. We’re licensed, insured, and bonded, and Tom publishes his name, address, and license number so you can verify everything before you sign.
Our Bathroom Remodeling Services in Azle
Our Bathroom Remodeling team handles the full range of work older Azle homes need, from gut renovations to focused upgrades. Here’s what we do most in the 76020 and 76098 zip codes.
Full Bathroom Remodeling
We start with a detailed site inspection, because an Azle bathroom from the 1970s or 1980s rarely matches what’s behind the drywall. Full remodels range from $9,000 to $28,000 depending on layout changes, plumbing moves, and what the permit inspection triggers once we open the walls. We handle everything: demo, framing, rough-in plumbing and electrical, waterproofing, tile, fixtures, and finish work.
Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling
Walk-in shower installation in Azle runs $4,500 to $12,000, and it’s the single most requested upgrade we see from homeowners who want to age in place. We replace failed shower pans, install proper waterproofing systems, and build curbless entries where the framing allows it. If your existing shower has been leaking into the subfloor, we’ll catch it during demo and write it up before it becomes a structural problem.
Tub-to-Shower Conversion
A tub-to-shower conversion in Azle typically runs $3,500 to $10,000. The wild card is what’s behind the tub. In older ranch homes near Eagle Mountain and along Highway 199, we regularly find water damage that’s been hidden for years, plus framing that was notched or hacked during the original build. We’ll show you photos of everything we find and price the repair before we proceed.
Vanities, Tile & Fixtures
Bathroom vanity installation in Azle runs $800 to $3,000 including plumbing adjustments and countertop install. We set tile over proper backer board with waterproofing membrane, and we install fixtures that are rated for the hard water that’s common across the Western Cross Timbers. If you’re replacing a 1980s vanity and find copper supply lines that are ready to let go, we’ll tell you before they fail.

Trusted Brands We Service in Azle
We install materials you can look up, not mystery brands off a van. On bathroom jobs around Azle we regularly work with KraftMaid vanities and Cambria countertops, and we can source Techo-Bloc products when a bathroom project extends into an adjacent outdoor space. What matters more than the brand name is how the material performs against the climate here: the drought-to-flood cycles and hard water in the Western Cross Timbers mean we specify finishes and fixtures that hold up. When we quote your Azle bathroom remodel, every material allowance is named on paper with a dollar figure attached, so you know exactly what you’re getting.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Azle Homes
- County-line permit confusion. Two houses on the same Azle street can fall under different counties. A quarter-mile move changes the forms, the fees, the inspector, and the timeline. We pull permits for the correct jurisdiction on the first try, because we’ve done it hundreds of times here.
- Rot and waterproofing failures. Old tub surrounds in 1970s-1990s ranch homes were often built without proper waterproofing. By the time you see a crack in the grout, the subfloor underneath may already be rotting. We find it during demo and price it before we fix it.
- Outdated electrical that won’t pass inspection. Once a permit is pulled, existing wiring in an older Azle home has to meet current code. If we find cloth-sheathed wire or an undersized circuit, that’s a change order with a written price before we proceed.
- Slab movement from expansive clay. The soil under Azle shifts hard between drought and flood years, and that movement cracks tile, separates shower pans, and stresses plumbing connections. We check for movement during our inspection so you know if foundation work belongs in the scope before we start.

The biggest variable in an Azle bathroom remodel is what’s behind the walls. A 1970s ranch that was built before strict municipal code may need electrical upgrades, structural repairs, or plumbing replacement before the new finishes go in. We build allowances into every contract for exactly this reason. The allowance isn’t a mystery number; it’s a line item with a stated figure, and any use of it comes to you in writing first. Call (877) 610-1318 for a free estimate, and we’ll give you a written line-item quote before you commit to anything.

FAQs - Bathroom Remodeling in Azle
Does a bathroom remodel in Azle always require a permit, given the Tarrant/Parker split?
Yes, almost always. Any bathroom remodel in Azle that moves plumbing, changes electrical, or alters framing requires a permit from either Tarrant County or Parker County, depending on which side of the county line your lot falls on. We determine the correct jurisdiction during the initial site visit and pull the right permit before any work begins. If your project could go either way because you’re close to the line, we verify with the county before we schedule the rough-in inspection. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll tell you exactly which permit your address needs.
What happens if you find hidden damage or code violations after the walls are open in an older Azle home?
We stop work, document everything with photos, and write a change order with a specific price before we proceed. You’ll never get a surprise invoice at the end of the job. In older Azle ranch homes, we expect to find some combination of outdated wiring, notched framing, or failed waterproofing, and we price allowances into the original contract so you’re not blindsided. The permit inspector works for you, not for us, and we want that inspection to pass cleanly the first time.
How do you handle the extra cost of bringing an old Azle bathroom up to current code?
We write a code-compliance allowance into your contract up front, with a dollar figure attached. When we open the walls and the inspector requires an upgrade, we pull from that allowance and show you the written change order before any work happens. If the allowance isn’t needed, you don’t pay it. An allowance that isn’t on paper is a surprise waiting for a date, and we don’t do surprises.
Why does a tub-to-shower conversion in Azle sometimes become more expensive after demolition?
Because the tub surround hides what’s behind it. In 1970s through 1990s homes around Azle, we frequently find rotted subfloor from years of slow leaks, or drain lines that were installed with materials that are now failing. The conversion itself runs $3,500 to $10,000, but if structural repair is needed, that’s a separate line item we’ll show you in writing with photos before we move forward. We’ll never proceed on a repair you haven’t approved.
Can you coordinate both county permits and inspections if my Azle property sits right on the county line?
Yes. This is exactly the situation that trips up out-of-area builders. We’ve pulled Tarrant County permits and Parker County permits for homes on the same Azle street, on adjacent lots, and occasionally for a single project with an addition that crosses the line. We file with the correct jurisdiction the first time, and we schedule inspections with the right inspector’s office so the rough-in sign-off happens without a stop-work order. Call (877) 610-1318, tell us your address, and we’ll confirm which county your bathroom falls under during the free estimate visit.
What Happens When We Open the Walls in an Azle Home
We worked on a 1980s ranch near the Tarrant-Parker line where the homeowner just wanted a fresh master bath. When we opened the walls, we found original cloth-sheathed wiring and a load-bearing wall that had been notched through for plumbing decades ago. Our crew pulled the Tarrant County permit, wrote a change order for the required GFCI circuit and a new LVL header, and had the rough-in inspection signed off before we closed the walls. No surprises, no delays, because we planned for exactly that kind of discovery from the first walkthrough.
That’s what makes remodeling in Azle different. The town straddles two counties, and its older housing stock was built fast and loose by today’s standards. When you open up a bathroom in a 1970s ranch, you will likely find something the previous owner never knew about. We expect it, we inspect for it, and we write it into the contract so the price you sign is the price you can plan around. If you’re ready to talk about your Azle bathroom, call (877) 610-1318 and schedule a free estimate. We’ll walk the space, explain what we see, and hand you a written line-item quote you can take to anyone.
