Scottsdale bathrooms, remodeled from the ground up

Scottsdale bathrooms range from 1960s hall baths with original tile to large 2000s primary suites with garden tubs nobody uses, travertine everywhere and dated fixtures. Both are good candidates for a full bathroom remodel.

Popular projects include converting a garden tub into a large walk-in shower, replacing travertine with porcelain tile that’s easier to keep clean, and adding a double vanity with better lighting and storage.

Local know-how

What Scottsdale bathrooms need

Garden tub to walk-in shower

Turning the oversized tub deck of a 2000s primary bath into a roomy, curbless or low-curb shower.

Travertine replacement

Travertine etches and stains easily. Porcelain tile gives a similar look with far less upkeep.

Ranch-home hall baths

Gutting original 60s bathrooms down to the studs for new plumbing, tile, vanity and ventilation.

Planning

Planning a bathroom remodel in Scottsdale

Primary bathrooms in many north Scottsdale homes were built around a large garden tub, a separate small shower and plenty of travertine. A common Scottsdale bathroom remodel combines the tub and shower area into one large walk-in shower with frameless glass, replaces travertine with large-format porcelain, and updates the vanity with quartz tops and modern lighting.

In older south Scottsdale homes, bathrooms are smaller and often original. A full gut remodel replaces worn plumbing, adds proper waterproofing and ventilation, and uses smart vanity sizing and glass to make a compact bath feel larger.

Frameless glass, large-format porcelain slabs, floating vanities and warm wood tones define many Scottsdale primary bathroom remodels. A curbless walk-in shower with a linear drain, a freestanding soaking tub where space allows and layered lighting at the vanity create the spa feel many homeowners are after.

Guest bathrooms and powder rooms are good places for bolder choices, like patterned tile, a statement vanity or textured wall tile, because they are small and seen by everyone who visits.

Every bathroom remodel starts with a free in-home estimate. We walk the space with you, measure, talk through layout, materials and budget, and then give you a clear written quote. Once you approve it, we order materials, schedule the work and keep you updated until the final walkthrough.

Scottsdale homes & their bathrooms

1950s–1960s

South Scottsdale ranches

Near Old Town and south of Indian Bend Wash

Single-story homes with compact kitchens and original baths. Great candidates for opening walls and full kitchen and bath remodels.

1970s–1980s

Master-planned neighborhoods

McCormick Ranch, Scottsdale Ranch

Solid homes with dated layouts, sunken rooms and closed kitchens. Most need modern finishes and better flow between rooms.

1990s–2000s

Tuscan & Mediterranean builds

DC Ranch, Grayhawk, McDowell Mountain Ranch, Troon

Big kitchens with dark wood, busy granite and travertine. Updating to lighter cabinetry, quartz and simpler tile is a common project.

FAQ

Bathroom remodeling in Scottsdale: questions

Do I need a permit for a bathroom remodel in Scottsdale?
Replacing cabinets, counters, tile, fixtures and paint usually doesn’t need a permit. Moving plumbing, gas, electrical or walls generally does, through the City of Scottsdale. We’ll tell you what your bathroom remodel needs during the free in-home estimate.
How much does a bathroom remodel cost in Scottsdale?
It depends on the size of the bathroom, whether the layout changes, and the materials you choose, especially tile, the shower and the vanity. Every Scottsdale project is priced individually: the in-home estimate is free, and you get the exact price in a written quote before any work starts.
Does my HOA need to approve my remodel?
Interior remodels usually don’t need HOA approval. Exterior changes in master-planned communities like McCormick Ranch, Grayhawk or DC Ranch, such as windows, doors or additions, often require architectural review. Check your HOA guidelines early.
Can you update a Tuscan-style kitchen without a full gut?
Sometimes. If the cabinet boxes and layout work, new doors or paint, quartz counters, a simpler backsplash and new lighting can change the look a lot. We’ll walk through both options at the estimate.
Can you replace travertine floors in a Scottsdale home?
Yes. Travertine is common in 1990s and 2000s Scottsdale homes, and many owners replace it with porcelain tile that has a similar look but is easier to maintain. Running one new floor through the main living areas is a popular part of a whole-home update.
Do you work in South Scottsdale ranch homes?
Yes. South Scottsdale’s 1950s and 60s ranch homes are a great fit for full remodels: opening walls, new kitchens and bathrooms, new flooring and updated systems.
