AfterFast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across Sunnyvale
A full bathroom remodel in Sunnyvale typically runs $9,000 to $28,000, with smaller refreshes coming in around $5,000 to $12,000. Most jobs take two to six weeks depending on how deep you go, whether that’s swapping a vanity or gutting the room to the studs. We’re Barrett & Sons Construction, and our Bathroom Remodeling crew has been working in Sunnyvale long enough to know exactly what’s behind the walls of these 1950s and 1960s ranch homes before the first tile comes up. Call (877) 610-1318 and you’ll reach a live person, not a voicemail box, and we’ll get your free estimate scheduled.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Sunnyvale’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
Tom Barrett founded this company in 1998, and his sons run crews here in Sunnyvale today. That means the name on the truck is the name on the contract, and the person who shakes your hand at the estimate is the same person you’ll see at the hardware store on Saturday. We don’t hand your bathroom off to strangers.
Sunnyvale homeowners have hired us for everything from tub-to-shower conversions off Collins Road to full primary bath remodels over in the Birdland neighborhood. They tend to mention the same things: written change orders before any scope changes, permits pulled on every eligible job, and the 90-Day Done Right Promise on every contract. One call brings Tom back if something isn’t right. That’s not a marketing line. It’s written on paper.
We also answer the phone 24 hours a day, seven days a week. If something leaks at 11 p.m., you’ll talk to a person who can actually do something about it. As for trust, Tom publishes his name, his address, and his license number. Look any of it up before you sign anything.
Our Bathroom Remodeling Services in Sunnyvale
Full Bathroom Remodeling
A full remodel means taking the room to the studs and rebuilding it right. In Sunnyvale, that usually starts with addressing what we find underneath: original cast-iron pipes, water-damaged subfloor, and tile or flooring that occasionally tests positive for asbestos. We handle the abatement, the plumbing, the framing, the waterproofing, and the finish work. You get one crew, one contract, and a written price before anything starts.
Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling
Walk-in showers are the most common request we see in Sunnyvale bathrooms. Homeowners want the tub out and a curbless or low-curb shower in its place. We use Schluter waterproofing systems on nearly every shower we build, which matters in a market where the original homes weren’t built with any waterproofing membrane at all. Prices for walk-in shower installation run $4,500 to $12,000.
Tub-to-Shower Conversion
A tub-to-shower conversion in Sunnyvale runs $3,500 to $10,000. This is the right move for a lot of these post-war ranch homes where the hall bath is small and the original tub takes up more floor space than you’d think. We handle the drain relocation, the pan, the surround, and the glass enclosure, and we’ll tell you upfront whether the subfloor needs work before we set anything.
Vanities, Tile & Fixtures
Sometimes the bathroom doesn’t need a full remodel. A new vanity, properly laid tile, and updated fixtures can change the whole room. Vanity installation runs $800 to $3,000 in Sunnyvale, depending on size and whether we’re moving plumbing. Tile work is priced by the square foot and the material, and we’ll walk you through the allowances in writing before the first box of tile shows up.

Trusted Brands We Service in Sunnyvale
We install brands you can look up, not mystery products off a van. In Sunnyvale bathrooms, we commonly work with Schluter waterproofing systems, Grohe fixtures, and Sterling tubs and shower bases. We don’t push brands because of a kickback. We use them because they hold up in a market where the original 1960s plumbing has already failed once. If a part ever goes wrong, you won’t chase a website. You’ll call the same number you called the first time.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Sunnyvale Homes
- Original cast-iron drain lines. Most Sunnyvale ranch homes built in the 1950s and 1960s still have original cast-iron waste lines. By the time we open the wall, they’re often corroded or cracked. We scope the line before we plan the remodel so you know what you’re dealing with before the contract is signed.
- Asbestos in original tile and flooring. Homes from the aerospace boom era frequently contain asbestos in floor tile, adhesive, or drywall compound. Sunnyvale’s own building codes require testing and abatement when we disturb those materials. We don’t skip this step, and we don’t pretend it’s optional.
- Water damage hidden behind the shower wall. Post-war construction didn’t include the waterproofing membranes that are code now. Leaks sat against wood framing for years. We regularly find rot behind original tile in Sunnvyale bathrooms, which is why our estimates include a framing allowance in writing so there are no surprises.
- Small footprints in the original hall baths. These homes were built for one bathroom and a smaller family. A lot of our work in Sunnyvale involves making a cramped 40-square-foot bathroom function like a bigger one through better layout, wall-hung vanities, and walk-in showers that don’t eat the floor space.
Pricing for Bathroom Remodeling in Sunnyvale, TX
Here’s where the money goes on a Sunnyvale bathroom remodel. A full gut-and-rebuild runs $9,000 to $28,000. A smaller floorplan with no plumbing moves runs $5,000 to $12,000.

Typically within one to two business days for an estimate, and we’ll schedule the work based on your timeline and the crew’s schedule.

Yes. We work in every Sunnyvale ZIP including 94085, 94086, 94087, and 94088, from the ranches near Fremont High School to the homes closer to the bay. If your property falls under special height restrictions near Moffett Federal Airfield, we’ll factor that into the plan before you spend a dollar on drawings. Call us and we’ll tell you what applies to your street.
Sunnyvale’s pricing sits slightly higher than areas farther east, driven by the age of the housing stock and what we usually find behind the walls: cast-iron drains, asbestos, and decades of deferred maintenance. The extra cost goes into doing the job right, not into padding. We’ll give you a written estimate so you can compare it against anything else you get.
Only if the scope changes, and only with a written change order signed by you before the work happens. If we open a wall and find something unexpected, we stop, we show you, and we put the new number on paper. The allowance that isn’t on paper is a surprise waiting for a date, and you won’t get a date with us.
Every bathroom remodel we complete carries our 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If something isn’t right within 90 days of completion, one call brings Tom back to make it right. That’s on top of the manufacturer warranties from brands like Schluter, Grohe, and Sterling. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll walk you through exactly what’s covered.
