AfterFast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across Dayton
Bathroom remodeling in Dayton, NV typically runs $9,000 to $28,000 for a full remodel, with smaller projects like a tub-to-shower conversion starting around $3,500. We know those numbers matter to you, and we also know Dayton well enough to tell you something most out-of-town contractors won’t: your remodel will likely involve Lyon County building permits, not Carson City or Washoe County rules. That distinction has tripped up more than a few national outfits working the valley. If you’re planning a remodel, call Barrett & Sons at (877) 610-1318 and we’ll walk you through what Dayton actually requires before you sign anything.
Key Takeaways:
- Full bathroom remodels in Dayton run $9,000-$28,000; small bathroom remodels run $5,000-$12,000.
- Dayton falls under Lyon County permitting, which has specific inspection and flood-zone rules contractors from Reno or Carson City often miss.
- Barrett & Sons has been owner-operated since 1998, with Tom Barrett’s sons running the crews and every change order in writing.
- Every job carries the 90-Day Done Right Promise, backed by a name you can look up.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Dayton’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
We are Dayton neighbors in the way that counts. Tom Barrett founded this company in 1998, and his sons run the crews. When you call, a live person answers, 24/7, not a voicemail box in another state. When you sign, Tom’s name, address, and license number are on the contract, and you can look up every one of them before the first tile comes off the wall. The permit inspector works for you, not for me, and we pull permits on every eligible Dayton job because the last contractor most folks used told them permits were optional. That’s not how we work.
Dayton homeowners ask us about response time, and the answer is honest: we’re not twenty minutes down the road, but our scheduling and dispatch are coordinated from our Las Vegas office, and crews serve Dayton locally every week. When you call (877) 610-1318, you’ll get a straight answer about when we can be out, not a vague “we’ll try.” We also offer no trip charge inside the county, so a second opinion on a written estimate costs you nothing.
Our Bathroom Remodeling Services in Dayton
Our Bathroom Remodeling team covers the full range of work Dayton homes need, from aging 2000s-era guest baths to primary suites in the newer subdivisions off Pine Cone Road. Here’s what we do most often.
Full Bathroom Remodeling
Gut-to-finish remodels are where everything matters: waterproofing under the tile, venting to code, and layouts that work for how your family actually uses the room. In Dayton’s early-2000s production builds, we frequently find shower pans with no proper slope and ventilation that dumps moisture into the attic. We tear it out, fix the framing, and rebuild it right.
Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling
Walk-in shower installation in Dayton runs $4,500-$12,000 depending on tile, glass, and plumbing moves. The Carson River valley’s hard water leaves scale on fixtures and glass, so we talk through finishes that hold up better here. Frameless glass enclosures are a popular choice, and we install them with hardware sized for the temperature swings your bathroom sees between summer and winter.
Tub-to-Shower Conversion
A tub-to-shower conversion in Dayton typically runs $3,500-$10,000 and is one of the fastest ways to open up a small bathroom. Older homes near the historic town core often have cast-iron tubs that are heavy to remove and tight doorways to navigate. Our crew does this carefully, and the price you approve on the change order is the price you pay.
Vanities, Tile & Fixtures
Whether you’re replacing a vanity in a powder room off the kitchen or retiling a full shower surround, we carry brand-name materials you can look up rather than mystery products off a van. Bathroom vanity installation runs $800-$3,000 in Dayton, depending on size, countertop, and plumbing adjustments. We’ll show you line-item pricing before work starts.

Trusted Brands We Service in Dayton
We install and service products from Simonton, Ply Gem, and PGT across our trade lines. In the bathroom, that matters most for windows, ventilation frames, and door thresholds that have to stand up to Dayton’s wind and freeze-thaw cycles. If a part needs replacing, we carry common sizes for Dayton homes and can turn around most material orders quickly, without leaving your bathroom torn apart for weeks.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Dayton Homes
- Moisture damage from fast early-2000s builds: Dayton’s first big subdivision wave is now aging into real trouble. We regularly open walls to find mold at the tub flange, failed caulk, and drywall soft to the touch behind tile that looked fine on the surface.
- Ventilation that never worked right: Bath fans venting into the attic instead of outdoors are common in Dayton production homes. It’s a code violation, and it rots roof sheathing over time. We fix the venting as part of any remodel.
- Freeze-thaw stress on grout and caulk: Dayton sits at roughly 4,700 feet with real winter freeze-thaw cycling. Grout and caulk crack faster here than in the valleys, especially near exterior walls and windows. We use flexible sealants and proper backer board to reduce callbacks.
- Permit confusion under Lyon County: Contractors based in Reno or Carson City sometimes try to treat Dayton like a metro suburb. Lyon County has its own building department, its own inspection windows, and FEMA flood-zone rules near the Carson River that affect raised foundations and elevation certificates on some parcels. We register with Lyon County and schedule inspections on their timetable, not ours.

FAQs - Bathroom Remodeling in Dayton
A full bathroom remodel in Dayton runs $9,000-$28,000, while a small bathroom remodel runs $5,000-$12,000. The spread covers everything from a cosmetic refresh to a gut renovation with plumbing moves and custom tile. For an exact quote with line-item pricing, call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll schedule a free estimate.
Yes, we pull permits on every eligible Dayton job and schedule inspections through Lyon County Building Department. Some bathroom remodels, especially anything involving plumbing or electrical changes, require permits under Lyon County rules. We handle the paperwork and make sure the inspection gets signed before the job is called done.
Scheduling depends on the scope and current workload, not on a promise we can’t keep. A tub-to-shower conversion can often start sooner than a full remodel. When you call, we’ll give you a straight answer about lead time and hold to it. We don’t promise same-day starts on planned remodels because nobody should.
Only if the scope changes, and only after you approve a written change order. We don’t hand you a different bill at the end of the job. If we open a Dayton wall and find rotted framing from a long-leaking shower, we’ll show you the damage, give you a written price for the repair, and get your sign-off before we proceed.
Every Barrett & Sons remodel carries the 90-Day Done Right Promise, written on the contract. If something isn’t done right, Tom Barrett comes back and makes it right, one call. We also honor manufacturer warranties on the products we install. Call (877) 610-1318 with any walkthrough questions.
