How much does a primary bathroom remodel cost in Southlake?

A luxury primary bathroom remodel in the Southlake corridor typically runs $95,000 to $245,000, based on our own completed projects. Where you land depends on whether the layout changes (moving the tub, shower, or vanity), finish level, and bathroom size.

What does moving the tub, shower, or vanity actually cost?

Relocating fixtures more than a few feet from their existing plumbing lines usually means new drain lines, vent relocation, and slab work, in addition to the visible finish work. That's why our calculator prices a full layout change meaningfully higher than a remodel that keeps fixtures close to where the plumbing already runs — it's not the tile that costs more, it's what's underneath it.

Are plumbing fixtures included in the estimate?

By default, yes — the calculator includes a fixture package (faucets, shower system, tub filler) at the tier you select. In practice, decorative plumbing fixtures are often supplied directly by the client or facilitated through an interior designer rather than included in our contract price, which is why the calculator lets you exclude that line if fixtures are being sourced separately.

How long does a primary bathroom remodel take?

Eight to twelve weeks of construction is typical for a same-footprint remodel; a full layout change or a project that also touches the connected closet often runs twelve to sixteen weeks. Add time up front for design and selections.

Is it ever just the bathroom?

Not usually. Across our own recent project history, primary bathroom work has consistently extended into the connected closet, and sometimes the bedroom itself — new flooring or paint that needs to read as one continuous space, closet built-ins that get reconfigured alongside the bath. Budget for the room next door, not just the one with the tile.

Do I need a permit, and what does it cost in my city?

Yes — every bathroom remodel that touches plumbing or electrical needs a city permit, and every city prices it differently: Southlake charges $50 plus 25¢ per square foot, Keller and Colleyville charge $1 per square foot, Flower Mound a flat $200 plus $100 plan review, Trophy Club prices on declared project valuation, and Westlake layers tiered permit, plan-review, and inspection fees. Swanson pulls and carries the permit on every project.

Does the calculator work for Keller, Westlake, Colleyville, Trophy Club, Flower Mound, and Grapevine?

Yes. Pick your city and the estimate folds in that city's actual permit fees and flags its review process.

Does this work for a secondary or guest bathroom?

Not precisely — this model is calibrated for primary bathrooms. Secondary and guest baths are smaller, but costs like demo, a shower base, a toilet, and electrical rough-in don't shrink proportionally with the room, so small bathrooms often run at a higher price per square foot than a primary bath does, not a lower one. If you're planning a secondary bath, talk to us directly for an accurate range.

Model updated July 2026 — calibrated against completed Swanson primary bathroom projects and each city's current permit fee schedule.

How the calculator builds your number.

The estimate is a real range, from a model we're willing to show. Here's the math behind it.

Cost per square foot

The model is calibrated against Swanson's own completed primary bathroom projects, where full remodels have run $95,000 to $245,000. Your scope, finish, and fixture selections scale a base rate across roughly $310 to $700+ per square foot of construction, then your city's actual permit fee is added. The range shown is the center ±15% — standard remodeling contingency.

Why the layout question matters most

A remodel that keeps the tub, shower, and vanity close to their existing plumbing lines can be a complete gut without touching what's inside the walls. Relocating those fixtures a meaningful distance usually means new drain lines, vent relocation, and slab work — substantial cost that has nothing to do with the tile or the vanity you chose. Our calculator prices a full layout change meaningfully higher for exactly this reason.

Where the money goes

In a typical elevated-finish Southlake primary bath: tile and stone run 30-40% of total budget (floor, walls, and shower all add up fast), vanity and cabinetry 12-20%, plumbing fixtures 8-15%, labor and project management 25-32%, and the rest is electrical, waterproofing, and contingency.

How this compares to the "percentage of home value" rule of thumb

The National Kitchen & Bath Association (NKBA) suggests budgeting 5 to 10 percent of your home's value for a bathroom renovation — a useful sanity check against overcapitalizing relative to resale, but not a substitute for pricing your actual project. It says nothing about your bathroom's size, finish level, or whether the layout is changing. Our estimate is built from that real scope instead, which is why it can land above or below the percentage guideline depending on your home's value and how ambitious the project is.

Most homeowners underestimate this by more than they expect

In our experience, most clients arrive at their first consultation with a number well under what the project ultimately costs — often somewhere around half to two-thirds of the real figure. That tracks with Houzz's own renovation data, where the median planned spend has historically landed well below the median actual spend on completed projects. It's not a knock on anyone's math — full scope is genuinely hard to see from the outside. It's the reason this calculator exists.

What this calculator can't see

Whether your decorative fixtures, lighting, and hardware are already spoken for by a designer or being sourced separately. HOA architectural-review timelines. The condition of the slab and plumbing behind the existing walls. And — based on our own recent project history — whether the closet or bedroom next door ends up part of the scope too, which happens more often than not. A real estimate from us accounts for all of this. The calculator gives you the honest headline.

What does a primary bathroom remodel cost in your city?

Same corridor, six different markets. The construction math barely moves between them — what changes is the housing stock, the permit regime, and the review process.

Southlake: A luxury primary bathroom remodel in Southlake typically runs $95,000 to $245,000+, on 8-16 week construction timelines depending on whether the layout changes. Permits are $50 plus 25¢/sq ft; Carillon requires an HOA stamp before the city takes the application. Bathroom remodeling in Southlake →
Keller: Keller's luxury pocket — Hidden Lakes and the gated villages — most often prices in the $85,000 to $220,000 band of our model. The city prices remodel permits at a clean $1.00 per square foot of project area. Bathroom remodeling in Keller →
Westlake: The most expensive market of the six, and the strictest process: the town requires your HOA approval letter before it will accept a permit application, then layers tiered permit, plan-review, and inspection fees. Budgets here regularly run past the top of our calculator bands. Bathroom remodeling in Westlake →
Colleyville: Estate lots and 1985-2015 housing stock — primary baths here trend large, and budgets look similar to Southlake's. Permits run $1.00/sq ft plus a $150 plan review, with all trade fees included. Bathroom remodeling in Colleyville →
Trophy Club: A deep bench of 1980s-2000s primary baths ready for full transformation, which our model prices in the $85,000 to $215,000 range. The town prices permits on declared project valuation rather than square footage; we declare and carry it. Bathroom remodeling in Trophy Club →
Flower Mound: The friendliest permitting of the six — a flat $200 remodel permit plus $100 plan review — and a strong luxury pocket in Bridlewood. Our model prices typical Bridlewood-class primary baths at $85,000 to $220,000. Bathroom remodeling in Flower Mound →
