Dallas Bathroom Remodeling

You want to know why kitchen and bathroom remodeling are enormously popular home improvement projects? They simultaneously improve your day-to-day lifestyle and add measurable value to your home. Fort Worth/Dallas bathroom remodeling is one of the quintessential examples of this reality. Want proof? ALG and Associates, a home appraisal company that serves Collin, Dallas, Denton, and Tarrant Counties tells us that a common misconception of home appraisals is that they can be done just by seeing the exterior of a home. They'll be the first ones to tell you that amenities, particularly renovated bathrooms and kitchens, directly affect your property value.

Average Cost of a Forth Worth/Dallas Bathroom Remodel
First, let's talk about what's going on across the country. The national average for a bathroom remodel is $9,150 taking 22 days to complete. For the cost of a Fort Worth/Dallas bathroom remodel, we see similar numbers with a distinct and telling pattern. We consistently see bathroom remodels in the Metroplex area coming in at $6,000-$8,000. Some are even as cheap as $3,000. Periodically, though, we'll see a bathroom remodel that tops $15,000. In other words, if you have a dream bathroom in mind or have compulsive trouble sticking to a budget, you better have the resources to match. On the other hand, if you plan carefully, you can probably have a beautiful bathroom for no more than $9,000.

Project Duration of Bathroom Renovations in Fort Worth/Dallas
Interestingly, we see a similar phenomenon with the project duration of a Fort Worth/Dallas bathroom renovation. Once a bathroom remodeling contractor begins you should have your new bathroom up and running in no more than a week or two. Then, we also see these project times coming out of Fort Worth/Dallas homeowners that are closer to 4-6 weeks. Now, before you get freaked out about having your bathroom out of commission for this long, here's the truly telling stat: We don't see a decrease in project satisfaction ratings with longer project times. This means the homeowner probably wasn't in any hurry, had other working bathrooms in the home, and deliberately took extra time to get what they wanted.

Feedback from Fort Worth/Dallas Bathroom Remodel Projects
Regardless of your budget or schedule, one nearly universal piece of advice we hear throughout the Metroplex area is that homeowners see, in hindsight, the importance of making their decisions carefully.

A homeowner from Dallas who spent $6,000 on a bathroom remodel that took only 10 days told us: "Take the time to pick out the material that you want...the tile, the accessories, the grout, paint, etc. It is worth the time to be sure you like it."

At the same time, a homeowner from Grapevine who spent $15,000 on a bathroom remodel that took 49 days said: "You get one chance to do it right. Make sure that you have a good plan, pick your tile, countertops and accents early on, and think carefully about the paint color."
