Bathroom Remodeling in The Woodlands.

Bathrooms fail from the inside out. In The Woodlands homes we routinely open walls and find pan liners that were never lapped correctly, hot-mopped pans past their life, or vents dumping humidity into the attic. Getting waterproofing and ventilation right is the difference between a bath that lasts twenty years and one that fails in five.

In short

Bathroom Remodeling in The Woodlands, Texas typically costs $35,000–$65,000 for a mid-range primary bath and $75,000–$150,000 for a custom spa bath, and takes 3–4 weeks of design and selections, then 5–8 weeks on site. Novara Construction is a licensed, insured design-build contractor serving The Woodlands, TX and surrounding Montgomery County, handling design, permitting, and construction under one fixed-price contract.

Local conditions

The Woodlands homes

Homes in Grogan's Mill and Panther Creek date to the 1970s and 80s and often need structural and systems work alongside finishes. Cochran's Crossing, Alden Bridge, and Sterling Ridge homes from the 90s and 2000s typically need kitchen and bath modernization and better indoor-outdoor connection. Deep tree cover here makes lighting design and window placement a real part of the remodel, not an afterthought.

We design the room around the plumbing you have or the plumbing you are willing to move, confirm slab or pier-and-beam access early, and detail the waterproofing assembly before a single tile is ordered.

Permits & approvals

Who reviews it

The Woodlands Township enforces covenants and tree protection through Residential Design Review, and construction permits go through Montgomery County. Exterior changes, additions, patio covers, and tree removal all need approval before work starts — we prepare and submit those packets.

FAQ

The Woodlands questions

Can you do a curbless shower on a slab foundation?

Yes. It requires cutting and re-sloping the slab to recess the shower pan, which we plan for at design and price into the proposal — it is not a surprise change order.

How long does a primary bathroom take?

Five to eight weeks on site for most primary baths, longer if we relocate plumbing walls or add a steam unit.

Do you handle The Woodlands Residential Design Review?

Yes. Exterior work in the Township requires design review approval, and we prepare the drawings and submittal as part of the project.

Can you build a covered patio or outdoor kitchen on a wooded lot?

Yes, with tree protection and drainage planned up front. We site structures to keep mature trees where possible, since removals require approval.
