AfterFast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across Bedford
If your Bedford bathroom still has the original 1970s tile, a tub that’s lost its finish, or a vanity that’s seen better decades, you’re not alone. Homes throughout 76021, 76022, and 76095 were built when a bathroom was a purely functional room, not the retreat most of us want now. Barrett & Sons Construction handles full bathroom remodels, walk-in showers, and tub-to-shower conversions in Bedford with written pricing and permits pulled on every eligible job. Call (877) 610-1318 and you’ll get Tom or one of his sons on the phone, not a call center.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Bedford’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
We’re the name on the truck. Tom Barrett founded this company in 1998, and his sons run the crews that work Bedford neighborhoods from Brown Trail to Harwood Road. When you hire Barrett & Sons, the people who shake your hand at the estimate are the same people who show up with tools. That matters in a town like Bedford, where word travels fast and a contractor’s reputation is built one job at a time.
Bedford homeowners have called us after national outfits quoted one price on the phone and handed them a different bill at the door. That doesn’t happen with us. Every scope change, every allowance adjustment, every material substitution arrives as a written change order before work proceeds. The permit inspector works for you, not for us, and we like it that way. Our 90-Day Done Right Promise is written on every contract: if something isn’t right, one call brings Tom back.
We answer the phone 24/7. No voicemail maze, no out-of-state call center. Call (877) 610-1318 and a live person picks up, whether you’re calling from a ranch home near Central Drive or a newer development off Cheek-Sparger Road.
Our Bathroom Remodeling Services in Bedford
Most Bedford bathrooms were built between 1960 and 1985, which means they share a set of predictable problems. Our Bathroom Remodeling team has seen them all, and we scope every job in writing before the first hammer swings.
Full Bathroom Remodeling
A full bathroom remodel in Bedford typically means gutting a space that hasn’t been touched since the Reagan administration. We handle everything: demo, plumbing rough-in, electrical updates, waterproofing, tile, fixtures, and finish work. Homes in older Bedford neighborhoods often hide surprises behind the drywall, like cast-iron drain lines or wiring that predates modern code. Our crew identifies those issues during the estimate, not after demolition starts.
Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling
Walk-in showers are the single most-requested upgrade we install in Bedford, and for good reason. The original tub surrounds in these 1960s and 1970s ranch homes were built with sheetrock behind tile, not cement board. That means grout cracks let water into the wall cavity for decades. When we open those walls, we regularly find rot and mold. Our shower remodels start with a proper waterproofing system, not just new tile over old problems.
Tub-to-Shower Conversion
Tub-to-shower conversions in Bedford usually run between $3,500 and $10,000 depending on whether we’re swapping a standard tub for a shower pan or expanding the footprint. This is a popular choice for homeowners along Meadow Lakes Drive or in the neighborhoods off Forest Ridge, where aging-in-place is a real consideration. A low-threshold or curbless shower can keep you in your home longer.
Vanities, Tile & Fixtures
Sometimes the bones of a Bedford bathroom are fine and what’s failing is the finishes. We replace vanities, retile floors and surrounds, and swap dated fixtures for modern options. Vanity installation alone typically runs $800 to $3,000 in Bedford, tile work depends on square footage and material. We carry lines from brands you can look up, not whatever was cheapest at the supply house that week.

Trusted Brands We Service in Bedford
We install materials from manufacturers with reputations you can verify. If you’re putting a paver patio outside your remodeled bathroom’s window, we work with Techo-Bloc and Cambridge Pavers. For hardscapes and drainage work tied to a bathroom addition, Quikrete products show up on our trucks when the job calls for them. When you’re comparing bids, ask the other contractor which brands they’re actually quoting. A price without a named material is a guess.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Bedford Homes
- Aging cast-iron drain lines. Bedford homes built before 1980 often have original cast-iron waste pipes under the slab. By now, many are corroded, cracked, or bellied. A bathroom remodel is the right time to address them, because patching tile over a failing drain is just a future emergency.
- Unpermitted prior work. Contractors working the older streets near central Bedford routinely discover that previous owners enclosed areas or added plumbing without permits. That hidden work can stall your remodel until it’s re-inspected and corrected. We handle the permitting process from the start, so nothing gets flagged at the final inspection.
- Slab movement and cracked shower pans. Bedford sits on Tarrant County clay that expands and contracts with every wet winter and 100-degree summer. That movement cracks tile, grout, and old mortar-bed shower pans. Proper waterproofing and flexible setting materials are not optional here.
- Undersized exhaust ventilation. Many original Bedford bathrooms have a small ceiling fan or none at all. In a room that produces steam daily for 40-plus years, that means humidity damage. We spec and install properly sized exhaust fans on every remodel we do.

FAQs - Bathroom Remodeling in Bedford
A bathroom remodel in Bedford typically costs between $9,000 and $28,000, with smaller bathrooms landing between $5,000 and $12,000.

Call (877) 610-1318 for a free estimate.
Yes, we work every Bedford neighborhood, including the older ranch-home streets near Central Drive, the areas around Brown Trail and Harwood Road, and the developments off Cheek-Sparger Road and Forest Ridge. We cover all three Bedford ZIP codes: 76021, 76022, and 76095.
The price changes only if you change the scope. If we open a wall and find a problem, you get a written change order before we touch it. The allowance that isn’t on paper is a surprise waiting for a date, and we don’t work that way.
Yes. Permits are pulled and inspections are signed on every eligible job. We’ve inherited too many Bedford remodels where the previous contractor told the homeowner permits were optional. They aren’t, and unpermitted work can delay your sale down the road.
Most Bedford bathroom remodels take two to four weeks depending on scope. A tub-to-shower conversion might finish in one to two weeks, while a full gut renovation with plumbing relocation takes longer. We’ll give you a written timeline with the estimate, and we stick to it unless weather or inspections intervene.
