Fast, Reliable Bathroom Remodeling Across Windcrest
A full bathroom remodel in Windcrest typically runs $9,000 to $28,000, with smaller baths landing between $5,000 and $12,000. The biggest cost driver here isn’t tile choice or fixture upgrades. It’s what’s behind the walls of homes built between the 1960s and 1980s: cast iron drain lines, original wiring, and slab movement that has quietly been working against your subfloor for decades. We plan for that before we ever swing a hammer, and we put every number in writing first. If you’re ready to talk through your bathroom, call (254) 269-5071 for a free estimate.
Why Mason Remodeling Co San Antonio Is Windcrest’s Preferred Bathroom Remodeling Company
We’ve been doing bathroom remodels since 2004 as part of the Threshold Group family, and we built our reputation in Windcrest by being straight about what an older home actually needs. Homeowners here have told us the same thing for years: they want a written price, a named crew, and a contractor who won’t disappear the moment a problem surfaces. That’s how we work. Every project gets a written price before any work starts, and every crew member is background-checked, identity-verified, and introduced to you by name and photo before they arrive.
Our crews know Windcrest’s housing stock. We know that a ranch home off Midcrown Drive from 1974 hides different problems than a house built near the golf course in 1985. We know the clay soil here moves, and we know what that movement does to bathroom flooring, drains, and waterproofing. That’s not a guess. It’s experience, and it’s why Windcrest homeowners call us when they want someone who has already seen what’s behind their drywall.
Dispatch and scheduling are coordinated from our San Antonio office, and crews serve Windcrest locally. A live person answers our phone 24 hours a day, seven days a week. No call trees. No voicemail loops. When you call (254) 269-5071, you get a human being who can talk about your project.

Bathroom Remodeling Companies in Windcrest
Bathroom Remodeling Companies in Windcrest don’t all operate the same way, and that matters when you’re opening up a 50-year-old bathroom. The job here usually means more than swapping a vanity and re-tiling a shower. It means checking what’s underneath. Our approach always starts with a structural and plumbing inspection before finish work begins, because in Windcrest, what you can’t see is usually what costs the most. A full bathroom remodel in Windcrest runs $9,000 to $28,000, and we write the allowance structure into your contract so you’re not surprised when the permit triggers a code upgrade.
Our inspection-first process
We open the walls and look before we commit to finishes. Aluminum wiring feeding a vanity from 1974 is a real thing in this city. So is a drain line that’s been corroding for 40 years. We find it early, price it in writing, and get your sign-off before any additional work happens.
Written change orders, always
Any surprise we uncover gets written into a signed change order before we touch it. You approve the number first. Nothing moves forward on a verbal promise. That’s the only way a bathroom remodel in Windcrest stays on budget.
Bathroom Renovation in Windcrest
Bathroom Renovation in Windcrest often means working around a foundation that hasn’t sat still since the house was built. The Blackland Prairie clay under most of this city expands in wet years and contracts in dry ones, and your slab moves with it. That movement cracks tile, dislodges drains, and breaks waterproofing seals. A renovation that ignores that reality will fail within the first year. A small bathroom renovation here typically runs $5,000 to $12,000, while a full renovation with layout changes lands between $9,000 and $28,000.
Moisture barriers and drainage corrections
We install moisture barriers and correct drainage before tile goes down. If water has been tracking up from the foundation, new tile won’t fix that. The ground underneath has to be addressed first, or you’ll be replacing grout again within 18 months.
Cast iron drain replacement
When we open a Windcrest bathroom and find original cast iron, we recommend replacing it with PVC. Cast iron cracks during rough-in when the slab has shifted, and a cracked drain stalls your permit sign-off. We re-pipe, we document, and we keep the schedule moving.
Trusted Brands We Service in Windcrest
We work with specification-grade materials and keep solid partnerships with brands like Kohler, Moen, and Atlas so Windcrest homeowners have access to products that aren’t sold off a big-box shelf. When a local customer needs a specific valve, trim kit, or shower pan, we can source it fast through our supplier network rather than waiting on a retail special order. We also service and install Atlas hardware and other professional lines. You get products that hold up to Windcrest’s humidity and temperature swings, and we stand behind the installation with our 365-Day Done Right Promise: if the work isn’t right within a year of completion, we make it right at no cost to you.
Common Bathroom Remodeling Problems We See in Windcrest Homes
- Slab movement cracking tile and loosening drains. Windcrest’s expansive clay soil shifts with every wet-dry cycle, and bathrooms bear the brunt of that movement. Tile cracks, shower pans separate, and drain flanges pull loose.
- Corroded cast iron drain lines. Homes from the 1960s through 1980s in this area were plumbed with cast iron, and after four or five decades in shifting soil, those lines crack and rust. A bathroom remodel often becomes a drain replacement once we open the subfloor.
- Original aluminum wiring in vanity circuits. We regularly find aluminum branch wiring in older Windcrest bathrooms, and it doesn’t meet current code for GFCI-protected outlets. Anytime walls come down, the permit typically requires bringing that circuit up to standard.
- Failed waterproofing from DIY or shortcut work. Windcrest’s humidity and foundation movement defeat cheap waterproofing quickly. Once moisture tracks up from the slab and behind grout, the damage is already spreading, and the fix costs more than the original waterproofing would have.

FAQs About Bathroom Remodeling in Windcrest
A bathroom remodel in Windcrest will usually trigger GFCI outlet requirements, ventilation upgrades, and sometimes a full circuit check when original aluminum wiring is present. The permit also requires that any drain work meet current plumbing code, which is why original cast iron often gets replaced once the subfloor is exposed. We include code allowances in the written estimate so these costs don’t blindside you. Call (254) 269-5071 to walk through what your specific home will need.
We stop finish work, photograph the damage, scope it, and present you with a written change order before we re-pipe. On a bathroom remodel off Midcrown Drive, our crew found a 1974 hall bath with corroded cast iron drains, original aluminum wiring, and a rotted subfloor from slab shift. We re-piped with PVC, rewired to code, shimmed the floor, sistered the framing, and had the added scope signed before closing anything up. That’s the standard. Call (254) 269-5071 for a free estimate.
A realistic full bathroom remodel in Windcrest runs $9,000 to $28,000, and a small bathroom runs $5,000 to $12,000. Foundation issues don’t usually add a separate line item, but they do mean we plan for subfloor repair, drain replacement, and waterproofing corrections inside the original written price. That’s why our estimates come with allowances for exactly what Windcrest homes reveal once we open the walls. Call (254) 269-5071 and we’ll price your project honestly.
Because the expansive clay soil under Windcrest moves, and a slab that has shifted over 40 years can compromise the framing your tile sits on. If a load-bearing wall has been stressed by decades of slab movement, new tile won’t lay flat and will crack within months. We don’t tile over a structural question. We inspect, document, and correct first. Call (254) 269-5071 to schedule a free estimate that includes this inspection.
We use a layered waterproofing system with a membrane that can tolerate micro-movement, not a single rigid layer that cracks the first time the slab shifts. Correcting drainage and adding a moisture barrier below the floor assembly matters just as much as the shower waterproofing itself. In Windcrest, waterproofing is a system, not a coating. Call (254) 269-5071 for a free estimate and a written plan for your bathroom.
