AfterFast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across Heath
A full bathroom remodel in Heath typically runs $9,000 to $28,000, with walk-in showers landing between $4,500 and $12,000 and tub-to-shower conversions starting around $3,500. Most Heath projects take two to four weeks once we pull permits and get materials on site. If you live off Laurence Drive or in one of the lakefront neighborhoods north of Ridge Road, call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll walk the space with you before quoting a single number.
We know Heath because we work here regularly. The homes are custom, the lots are wide, and the expectations are high. You didn’t buy a house in Heath to live with a 1990s builder-grade bathroom. You want a shower that drains properly on a slab that moves, tile that stays put through the dry-summer-to-wet-fall cycle, and a contractor who pulls permits before touching a post-tension foundation. That’s the work we do.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Heath’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
Barrett & Sons has been owner-operated since 1998. Tom Barrett’s name is on the company, on the trucks, and on the contract, and his sons run the crews that show up in Heath. We’re not a franchise and we don’t send strangers. The crew members who work in your home are background-checked and carry the Barrett name every day.
Heath homeowners have told us what they’ve dealt with before calling us: a national company quoted one number on the phone, then handed over a different invoice after the work was done. That doesn’t happen here. Every scope, every allowance, and every price change comes as a written change order before a single nail moves. If a change isn’t on paper, it doesn’t exist. That’s our rule and Tom enforces it personally.
Rockwall County inspectors know Heath’s housing stock well, and we do too. When a bathroom remodel touches a 1990s or 2000s post-tension slab, the inspector will ask questions. We budget a structural engineering consult into nearly every Heath bid that involves moving drain lines or cutting into a slab. It’s not optional up here. It’s how you keep a project from stopping cold three weeks in. Our Bathroom Remodeling team has handled enough of these to know exactly what the county will look for.
Our Bathroom Remodeling Services in Heath
Full Bathroom Remodeling
We gut and rebuild master baths, hall baths, and secondary baths throughout the 75032 zip code. Heath homes from the late 1990s and 2000s often have original fiberglass inserts and dated tile that’s ready to come out. We replace everything from the subfloor up, coordinate the plumbing and electrical, and bring in tile, stone, and fixtures that match the quality of the home around them.
Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling
A walk-in shower in Heath runs $4,500 to $12,000 depending on size, tile selection, glass, and whether we’re working with an existing pan or pouring a new one. On larger custom homes near Lake Ray Hubbard, we frequently build curbless entry showers with linear drains, especially for homeowners planning to stay in the home well into retirement. Proper waterproofing matters here because Heath’s clay soils move, and any shower tied to a moving slab needs a waterproofing system that flexes rather than cracks.
Tub-to-Shower Conversion
Most tub-to-shower conversions in Heath land between $3,500 and $10,000. We remove the old tub, reconfigure the drain line, build the new shower pan, and install wall surround material or tile. For Heath homeowners in their 60s and 70s, this is one of the most common aging-in-place upgrades we do. A low-entry shower with a bench and grab-bar blocking beats stepping over a tub wall every morning.
Vanities, Tile & Fixtures
Vanity installation runs $800 to $3,000, while custom tile work is priced by the square foot and material. Heath homes have generous bathroom footprints, so we routinely install double vanities, full-height tile walls, and framed mirrors. We carry KraftMaid and Cambria lines for Heath clients who want named brands they can look up, not mystery products off a van. We also replace fixtures, faucets, and lighting as part of a larger remodel or on their own.

Trusted Brands We Service in Heath
We install and service products from Ply Gem, PGT, and Simonton when window or glass enclosure work enters a bathroom remodel, and we prefer materials with a verifiable manufacturer warranty. For Heath clients, we stock common parts locally so turnaround on glass, hardware, and trim doesn’t stall a project. If you’re building a new bath and want a frameless glass enclosure to match the home’s existing windows, our Windows & Doors in Heath crew handles the measurements and install. We also carry Cambria quartz and KraftMaid cabinetry for vanity and counter work. One call covers the whole room.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Heath Homes
- Post-tension slab complications. Many Heath homes sit on post-tension foundations now 15 to 30 years old, and moving a toilet or shower drain often means crossing a tendon line. We bring an engineer in before we cut anything, and Rockwall County inspectors expect to see that paperwork.
- Clay-soil movement cracking tile and grout. Heath’s expansive black clay shrinks in summer and heaves after fall rains. Bathrooms with rigid tile directly on slab floors crack at the grout lines. We use decoupling membranes and flexible setting materials sized for this soil, and we’ve torn out enough cracked floors in Heath to insist on it.
- Failed shower waterproofing from the original build. Late-1990s and 2000s builder-grade showers in Heath often have moisture damage behind the walls, especially in lakefront homes where subsurface moisture stays higher year-round. We find rot at the curb and mold behind tile regularly when we demo.
- Undersized exhaust ventilation. Many original Heath bathrooms have a single small exhaust fan that can’t handle a larger custom shower. We upgrade to properly sized fans and ducting as part of our remodels, because a good shower in a custom home shouldn’t leave mildew on the ceiling three months in.
