Bathroom Remodeling in The Colony
Bathrooms are the other room where The Colony's 1980s and '90s homes feel dated fastest. In neighborhoods like Ridgepointe, Northpointe, The Colony Southwest, and the Legend subdivisions, original primary baths tend to be cut up into small compartments with garden tubs nobody uses and vanities short on storage. A remodel — whether it is a spa-like primary suite or a tight, smart hall bath — reclaims that space and fixes the moisture problems age tends to hide.
What a bathroom remodel includes
We handle layout changes, curbless and tiled showers, freestanding and drop-in tubs, double vanities, tile, lighting, ventilation, and the waterproofing that keeps all of it sound. Behind the finishes, we re-run plumbing and update electrical to match. Because we are a design-build firm, the waterproofing detail, the fixture selections, and the plumbing rough-in are all planned by the same team — which is how you avoid the leaks and callbacks that come from a designer and a plumber never talking.
Permitting and licensed trades in The Colony
Bathroom work means plumbing and electrical, and in The Colony that is permitted, inspected work — handled through the Building Inspections office at 6053 Main Street, with inspections searchable and schedulable in the eTRAKiT portal. Texas licenses its plumbers and electricians at the state level, and we build with those state-licensed trades, working to the 2024 ICC codes and 2023 NEC the city adopted in 2025. We pull the permit and see the inspections through so your waterproofing and your wiring are actually signed off — not hidden behind new tile and hoped over.

Bathroom Remodeling in The Colony — FAQ
- Do I need a permit for bathroom remodeling in The Colony, TX?
- Yes — bathroom remodeling in The Colony is permitted work. It's filed through City of The Colony Building Inspections (6053 Main Street) using eTRAKiT portal (search/inspections); building permits emailed as PDF to permits@thecolonytx.gov. As of Oct 1, 2025 The Colony requires permits for roof replacement, siding replacement, and foundation repair (scopes many DFW cities exempt); the city adopted the 2024 ICC codes + 2023 NEC (July 17, 2025), and residential plan review runs ~10–15 business days with a $50 application fee. We pull the permit and carry the project through every inspection.
- What does bathroom remodeling in The Colony include?
- A bathroom remodeling project with us covers layout & fixture planning; waterproofing & tile assemblies; plumbing & drain relocation; ventilation & moisture control; vanities, lighting & finishes; permits, inspections & code. Because we're design-build, one team owns design, engineering for North Texas's expansive clay soil, The Colony's permitting, and construction — so nothing falls between a separate designer, builder, and stack of subcontractors.
- How much does bathroom remodeling cost in The Colony?
- It depends on the size of the project, the finishes, and any structural or foundation work, so we scope and price each The Colony project individually rather than quote a flat rate. To plan around typical DFW ranges, use our cost estimator or the free remodel cost & permit guide.
- Is The Remo Guys licensed and insured?
- Texas doesn't issue a statewide license for residential general contractors, so the real assurance is one accountable team that's insured and bonded — which The Remo Guys has been since 2019. The state-licensed electrical, plumbing, and HVAC trades on your project each pull and inspect their own permits under the build.
