A bathroom should be the easiest room in the house to relax in, not the one you keep apologizing for. If yours has cracked tile, a cramped tub or a vanity with no storage, Akraba can help. We’re a Dallas–Fort Worth remodeler focused on kitchens, bathrooms and interior remodeling, and bathroom remodeling in Plano is a big part of what we do. We work on primary suites, hall baths and powder rooms, and as a certified bathroom remodel contractor, we take care of the design, the trades and the details. You end up with a bathroom that looks great and holds up to daily life.
What’s Included in a Bathroom Remodel
We build every scope around your space, your goals and your budget. Depending on your project, a bathroom remodel with Akraba can include:
- Layout planning, including moving or enlarging the shower, vanity or toilet where possible
- Demolition and haul-away of old tile, fixtures and vanities
- Tub-to-shower conversions and walk-in or curbless showers
- Shower waterproofing and tile work for walls, floors and niches
- New vanities, countertops, sinks and faucets
- Toilets, tubs and plumbing updates
- Lighting, outlets and exhaust fan upgrades
- Glass shower enclosures, installed by our own team
- Accessibility features like grab bars, benches and low-threshold entries
- Drywall, paint and trim for a clean, finished look

Shower Remodels and Tub-to-Shower Conversions
A shower remodel is one of the most popular bathroom updates we do. If you have a garden tub nobody uses or a dated tub-and-shower combo, we can turn it into a walk-in tile shower with a bench, a niche and a glass enclosure installed by our own team. We also replace old jetted (Jacuzzi-style) tubs with a walk-in shower or a new freestanding tub. Small hall baths and powder rooms get the same care: smart storage, better lighting and durable tile.
Design and Material Options
Some homeowners in Plano and Allen want a bright, spa-style primary bath. Others in Garland or Mesquite want a durable, easy-to-clean hall bath for the kids. We’ll walk you through options like these:
- Showers: walk-in, curbless or tub-and-shower combos, with niches, benches and handheld or rain shower heads
- Glass: shower enclosures installed by our own team
- Tile: porcelain, ceramic and natural stone, from large-format slabs to classic subway and mosaic patterns
- Vanities: single or double, floating or floor-standing, with quartz or other countertop surfaces
- Fixtures: faucets, shower valves and hardware in finishes like matte black, brushed nickel or brass
- Flooring: slip-resistant tile or luxury vinyl that handles moisture well
- Lighting and ventilation: layered lighting plus a properly sized exhaust fan to help control humidity
We’ll explain the trade-offs between materials, so your budget goes toward what matters most to you.
What Affects the Cost of a Bathroom Remodel?
Every bathroom is different, and so is every budget. The main cost factors are:
- The size of the bathroom (powder room, hall bath or primary suite)
- Whether plumbing fixtures move or stay where they are
- Shower type and how much tile goes in
- Tile, vanity and fixture choices
- Glass shower enclosures
- Electrical and ventilation upgrades
- Hidden problems such as water damage or rot behind old tile, which are more common in older homes
Because no two bathrooms are alike, the only way to get a real number is to see the space in person. We offer a free in-home estimate that lays out the scope and price before any work begins.
Permits and Code Requirements
Many DFW cities, including Plano and Garland, generally require a permit when a bathroom remodel adds or moves plumbing or electrical work, adds circuits or ventilation, or changes walls. Simple cosmetic updates often don’t need one. Requirements vary by city and project, so we’ll tell you up front what your project needs. When a permit is required, Akraba pulls it for you and plans inspections into the schedule.
