Is $10,000 Enough for a Full Bathroom Remodel in Dallas County?

When you look up the average cost of a full bathroom remodel in Dallas County, you might see some pretty low numbers, sometimes as low as $5,000-$10,000. Is a budget of $10,000 really enough to remodel everything from the floor to the lighting?

The answer isn’t entirely straightforward. If you have access to free labor (as in, DIY labor) and low-cost materials, you may be able to complete your bathroom remodel on a budget of $10,000.

Even little mistakes can have expensive repercussions when we’re talking about things like wiring and plumbing. As we say in the industry, no bathroom remodel is more expensive than the one you have to do twice!

Why Do Professional Remodels Cost Upwards of $15,000?

Thanks to inflation, average price ranges can become outdated pretty quickly. In fact, inflation tends to hit industries like home remodeling a little harder than others. 

According to the Verisk Repair and Remodel Index, remodel costs increased by 3.43% in Q2 of 2025, compared to the 2.7% increase in inflation. 

What does that mean in terms of actual cost? Let’s look at an example. A remodel that cost $10,000 in January of 2025 would have cost $10,343 by June. That might not seem like a huge increase, but it has important long-term implications. A price range posted four or five years ago could be off by a few thousand dollars.

What Factors Will Impact My Full Bathroom Remodel Cost?

Can you break down a price range as big as $15,000 to $75,000? It’s useful to understand what factors will have the biggest impact on your bathroom remodel cost. These factors are:

• The scope of your remodel. For example, updating one specific area (like your tub or shower) will cost significantly less than a full “studs-to-done” remodel. Similarly, a remodel that takes advantage of your current plumbing layout will cost a lot less than a remodel that involves moving your shower from one wall to another.
• The materials you use. For example, acrylic shower walls fall into the pricing mid-range because they’re high in quality and durable, but not as costly as something like natural stone slabs. 
• The level of customization in your design. Standard options like a 30” x 60” shower base or basic shower wall colors will cost less than custom sizes or premium designs. Similarly, you can expect to pay more for custom cabinetry or add-on accessories than for pre-fab materials. 

It can also be useful to see a more itemized list of average bathroom remodel costs. Here’s a breakdown of the cost range and budget percentage of things like labor, materials, and plumbing work. 

Tips for Building a Bathroom on a Budget of $40,000 or Less

One way to approach a bathroom remodel on a budget is to focus on the upgrades that would make the biggest difference. For example, some homeowners will opt to upgrade their primary shower before (or instead of) tackling a full bathroom remodel. Others will incorporate a few additional upgrades, like new flooring, without doing a full studs-to-done remodel.

In addition to focusing on the areas of your bathroom that most need upgrading, you can also use the following tips to stay out of that $40,000 to $75,000 range:

• Use your existing layout: work within the existing square footage of your bathroom and take advantage of current electrical and plumbing configurations
• Balance budgeting with durability by using mid-range materials: design your bathroom with materials like acrylic, a more affordable alternative to natural stone or high-end tile that can last 15-20 years
• Prioritize must-have design features: stick to standard or pre-fab options (such as single-color shower wall panels) whenever possible to make more space in your budget for the customizations you really need, like grab bars or non-slip flooring
