South Arlington Bathroom
Remodel Costs
A hall bath in a 1980s home and a primary suite in a 2010 home are different jobs. Room size, tile and fixtures set most of the price, and moving any fixture adds plumbing. The City of Arlington lists bath remodels as permitted work, while paint, wallpaper and flooring alone are cosmetic.
Hall Bath Update
Fixtures stay where they are
- New vanity and faucet
- Retiled tub surround
- Paint, mirror and lighting
Full Bathroom Remodel
Common for 1980s and 1990s homes in 76016 and 76017
- Tub or shower replaced
- Sealed tile floor and walls
- Valves, drains and circuits updated
Primary Suite Remodel
Often chosen in larger 76001 and 76002 homes
- Garden tub replaced with a large shower
- Two vanities and tall storage
- Layout and lighting reworked
South Arlington bathrooms are priced after a free visit, with labor, materials and permits listed separately.
Bathroom Layout Changes
Moving a drain or toilet means cutting the slab and running new pipe. Keeping the layout leaves more of the budget for finishes.
Material Selection
Custom vanities, natural stone and designer fixtures sit at the top of the range. We show options at several price levels.
Plumbing & Electrical Updates
Homes from the 1980s and 1990s often have shutoffs and supply lines worth replacing while walls are open. New circuits for lighting or heated floors need a permit.
Tile Complexity
Large-format porcelain, patterns and natural stone take more time to set than standard tile, which raises labor.
Fixture & Material Quality
A basic faucet and a thermostatic shower system can be far apart in price. We lay out choices side by side.
Project Timeline
Custom glass and vanities take time to build. We confirm delivery before demolition so the room is not left open.
South Arlington Bathrooms, Neighborhood by Neighborhood
Arlington incorporated in 1884 and boomed after the General Motors plant opened in 1954, growing from 7,692 residents in 1950 to 90,643 in 1970 and 394,266 in 2020. Much of the later building moved south, so South Arlington bathrooms run from 1980s builder baths to suites in homes finished after 2005.

South Arlington Clients on Their Bathrooms
Signs Your Bathroom Is Due
A garden tub that collects dust, cracked cultured marble, a fiberglass shower that never looks clean and a fan that cannot clear steam are common in South Arlington baths from the 1980s and 1990s. When several show up, one full remodel is the better value.
One lead runs your project, the schedule is in writing and we check with you before anything changes.

FAQ
What does a bathroom remodel cost in South Arlington?
Most bathroom remodels in South Arlington land in one of three ranges: around $15,000 for a refresh with a new tub or shower surround, vanity, fixtures and floor tile; around $25,000 for a full remodel in the same layout; and $42,000 and up for a primary bath with a tiled walk-in shower, a new layout or moved plumbing. Financing is available through a third-party service on our estimates, and we fix the price in writing after a free in-home visit.
Does Arlington require a permit for a bathroom remodel?
Yes. The City of Arlington lists bath remodels as permitted work, along with wall removal and framing changes. Cosmetic work such as paint, wallpaper and flooring does not need one. We file the permit for you.
Where are Arlington permits filed?
At the One Start Center, 101 W. Abram Street, 2nd floor, phone 817-459-6502, or online at arlingtonpermits.com. Inspections are scheduled through the city’s 24-hour line at 817-261-8817.
How long does a bathroom remodel take?
Most South Arlington bathroom remodels take 4 to 5 weeks on site, depending on tile and custom pieces. You get the schedule in writing.
Which South Arlington areas do you serve?
We work across 76001, 76002, 76016 and 76017, from older streets near Parks Mall to the newest subdivisions near the Mansfield line.
Can you turn my garden tub into a walk-in shower?
Yes. We remove the tub, waterproof and slope the floor and build a larger shower with the bench, niche and glass you choose.
What tile holds up best?
Porcelain handles water and daily wear with little care. Natural stone looks great but needs sealing. We bring samples of both.
Can we use the house during the work?
Yes. We seal off the work area and keep the path through the house covered. If you have only one bathroom, we plan the toilet swap so it is out of service as briefly as possible.
What if you find damage behind the tile?
We stop, show you photos and write a change order with the cost. Nothing extra happens until you approve it.
Does Southern Home Remodeling need a Texas contractor license?
Texas does not issue a state license for general remodeling contractors, so there is no license number to show. The plumbing and electrical work on your project is done by state-licensed trades, and we register with the City of South Arlington for every permit we pull.
Where is your office?
Our office is at 1611 W Sanford St in Arlington. Call (817) 330-9499 to book a visit.
