AfterFast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across Pflugerville
A full bathroom remodel in Pflugerville typically runs $9,000 to $28,000, with smaller jobs like a tub-to-shower conversion landing between $3,500 and $10,000. Most projects take two to six weeks depending on scope, and we pull permits on every eligible job so your inspection is signed before we call it done. If you live in Blackhawk, Springbrook, or anywhere in the 78660 or 78691 zip codes, call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll schedule a free estimate with a written, line-item scope.
What’s happening across Pflugerville right now is something we’ve watched unfold for years. The subdivisions that sprang up around 2003 to 2008 are hitting the age where builder-grade bathrooms start failing all at once. Shower pans crack, fiberglass surrounds yellow and split, and the cheap shutoff valves under vanities seize up. When a whole street of DR Horton or Lennar homes shares the same vintage and the same original fixtures, the same repair calls come in clusters. We know these houses because we’ve worked in them since the first wave of remodels started.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Pflugerville’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
Tom Barrett started this company in 1998, and his sons run the crews you’ll see at your door. That’s not a marketing line. When you call Barrett & Sons about a Bathroom Remodeling job in Pflugerville, the person who answers is the person who’ll be walking your slab. We publish Tom’s name, address, and license number, and you’re welcome to look it up before you sign anything. If a contractor won’t show you those details, that tells you something.
Pflugerville homeowners call us because the last contractor gave them one price over the phone and a different invoice at the end. We do it differently. Every scope, every allowance, every change order arrives in writing before work proceeds. The permit inspector works for you, not for me, which is exactly why I like him on the job. When the inspection passes and the paperwork is signed, you know it was done to code, not to a sales pitch.
We hire background-checked crew members who carry the Barrett & Sons name on their shirts. We answer the phone 24 hours a day with a live person, not an out-of-state call center. And every completed job carries our 90-Day Done Right Promise: if it’s not done right, Tom comes back and makes it right. One call.
Our Bathroom Remodeling Services in Pflugerville
Full Bathroom Remodeling
A full remodel means reworking everything from the subfloor up: new shower or tub, new vanity, new tile, new lighting, new exhaust fan, new plumbing rough-in where needed. In Pflugerville, we’re frequently opening up bathrooms in early-2000s tract homes and finding moisture damage behind the original fiberglass surrounds. Those surrounds were never built to last 20 years in a climate where the summer heat bakes exterior walls well past 100°F. We address the damage, not just the cosmetics, and we document it in writing before we add scope.
Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling
Walk-in shower installation in Pflugerville runs $4,500 to $12,000 depending on size, tile selection, and whether we’re replacing a tub footprint or building new. We frame or level the shower pan first, because slab movement from the Taylor marl and Houston Black clay under Pflugerville can leave a 20-year-old shower pan pitched the wrong way. A curbless, zero-entry shower with frameless glass is a popular request from homeowners planning to age in place, and we build it to code with proper waterproofing behind the tile, not just on top of it.
Tub-to-Shower Conversion
Tub-to-shower conversions in Pflugerville run $3,500 to $10,000. If you’ve got a garden tub you never use taking up a quarter of the master bathroom, pulling it and framing a walk-in shower is the most practical remodel you can make. The trick in these tract homes is the drain location. Many early-2000s slabs were poured with the tub drain at a specific rough-in point, and moving a drain through post-tension concrete is exactly the kind of job that separates a licensed contractor from a handyman with a jackhammer. We assess the slab before we quote, and we pull the permit before we cut.
Vanities, Tile & Fixtures
Bathroom vanity installation in Pflugerville runs $800 to $3,000, and we install named brands you can look up rather than mystery stock off a van. Tile work, new fixtures, new lighting, and exhaust fan upgrades all fall under this heading. One of the most common calls we get from Pflugerville homeowners is a vanity swap that turned into a discovery of a frozen shutoff valve or a corroded supply line. We replace those as part of the job with a written change order, never a surprise invoice.

Trusted Brands We Service in Pflugerville
We install premium materials because they last, and because you deserve to know exactly what you’re paying for. In bathrooms, that means Cambria and other named quartz and tile lines, not off-brand imports with no warranty paper trail. We stock the common replacement parts local Pflugerville homes need, which keeps turnaround tight when a job is underway and a valve or trim kit fails mid-remodel. If you want Techo-Bloc or Belgard for an outdoor shower surround or paver approach to a pool bathroom, we carry those too. The point is this: the material name goes on your quote, and the same material shows up on the day of install.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Pflugerville Homes
- Builder-grade shower pans failing at 15 to 20 years. The fiberglass and acrylic pans installed in 2000s tract homes were never designed for Pflugerville’s heat-and-dry cycle. They crack, flex, and leak into the slab, and by the time you see the stain on the ceiling below, the damage is already done. We inspect the subfloor and joists before we ever order tile.
- Slab movement throwing tile and plumbing out of alignment. The expansive clay under much of Pflugerville swells in wet years and shrinks in drought. Hairline cracks in grout lines and a toilet that rocks slightly can both trace back to slab movement, not installation error. We check floor flatness and slab condition before setting anything.
- Exhaust fans that don’t exhaust. A lot of early-2000s Pflugerville bathrooms have fans that vent into the attic instead of through the roof. That’s a recipe for mold in the ceiling cavity. During any remodel, we inspect the exhaust route and fix it properly, including the roof venting. If the roof needs attention, we handle Roofing in Pflugerville as well, so you don’t need a second contractor.
- Freezing shutoff valves and corroded supply lines. Cheap multi-turn valves installed by the hundreds in tract neighborhoods seize up after a decade or two of Central Texas mineral-heavy water. We replace them with quarter-turn ball valves as standard practice on any remodel, and we write the cost into the quote up front.

A straight swap with a stock vanity and a pre-fabricated shower lands at the bottom. We don’t play the allowance game where the low quote becomes a surprise at the end.

FAQs - Bathroom Remodeling in Pflugerville
We can typically schedule an estimate within a few business days and start most Pflugerville bathroom remodels within two to four weeks of a signed contract, depending on material lead times. Custom tile and glass enclosures add one to three weeks. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll give you a real start date, not a vague window.
Yes. We work throughout 78660 and 78691, including Blackhawk, Springbrook, Falcon Pointe, the Lakeside area, and the older homes near downtown Pflugerville off Pecan Street and FM 685. Our crews know these neighborhoods, and we schedule projects so the tile setter and the plumber aren’t driving back and forth across town all week.
Bathroom remodeling in Pflugerville runs right in line with Hutto, Wells Branch, and Brushy Creek because the housing stock and labor market are nearly identical. The $9,000 to $28,000 range for a full bathroom holds across the area. What changes the price more than geography is whether your slab needs plumbing relocation, which is a Pflugerville-specific reality on expansive clay.
Yes. Any bathroom remodel that touches plumbing, electrical, or structural framing requires a permit from the City of Pflugerville, and we pull it and schedule the inspection as part of the job. The permit inspector works for you, not for me. If a contractor tells you permits are optional, walk away.
Every bathroom remodel we complete in Pflugerville is backed by our written 90-Day Done Right Promise. If something isn’t done right, Tom Barrett comes back and makes it right. One call. The manufacturer warranties on materials like Cambria quartz and our named fixture lines are in addition to that, and we handle the paperwork so you don’t have to chase a factory rep.
