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

When you look up the average cost of a full bathroom remodel in Denton County and beyond, you’re going to see some pretty low numbers in the mix. Is a budget of $10,000 really enough to remodel everything from the floor to the lighting?

The answer is a little bit complicated. If you have access to free labor (aka DIY labor) and low-cost materials, you may be able to complete your bathroom remodel on a budget of $10,000. 

Before you embark on any major DIY bathroom remodel projects, you may want to take a look at our guide to DIY do’s and don’ts. Even little mistakes can have expensive repercussions when we’re talking about things like wiring and plumbing.

Questions to ask before you DIY a bathroom remodel (1)

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

The low price tag you might see on some search results isn’t just a reflection of DIY options. Thanks to inflation, average price ranges can become outdated pretty quickly.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. 

That means that a remodel that cost $10,000 at the beginning of the year could cost $10,343 at the halfway point of the year. 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?

How can you make sense of a price range as vast as $15,000 to $75,000? It’s useful to understand what factors will raise or reduce the cost of a bathroom remodel. The biggest factors are:

  • The scope of your remodel. For example, focusing on a specific area (like your tub or shower) will cost less than a full studs-to-done remodel. Alternatively, a remodel that takes advantage of your current plumbing layout will cost less than a remodel that involves adding square footage or 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.

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 tub or shower before (or instead of) tackling a full bathroom remodel. Others will incorporate a few additional upgrades, like new flooring.

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
