Kitchen, bath, HVAC & whole-home remodels in Plano

Where can I find a remodeling contractor in Plano?

TrueForm Remodeling serves all of Plano — Willow Bend, Legacy West, Shoops, West Plano, Russell Park, and Dallas North Estates. We deliver kitchen and bath remodels, HVAC replacement and upgrades, and whole-home renovations on fixed-price Good-Better-Best tiers, with a written scope before any demo. Plano homes built between 1985 and 2005 share predictable issues — original builder-grade cabinetry past its lifespan, single-stage HVAC systems sized for an older code, and master baths with the same 1990s footprint — and we scope around all of them. Same-day response, 3-year workmanship warranty, insured GL and workers' comp. Email estimates@trueformdfw.com. PISD-area service across every Plano zip from 75023 to 75094.

Remodeling in Plano, Collin County

Plano is overwhelmingly a 1985–2010 Plano ISD market, and most homes share a common DNA: builder-grade cabinets that have lived past their service life, primary baths with the same 1990s garden-tub-and-cultured-marble footprint, single-stage HVAC sitting on an oversized return, and a kitchen layout designed around the appliance package the builder bought wholesale 25 years ago. Willow Bend and Legacy West are higher-end pockets where buyers expect quartz, semi-custom cabinets, and tile-to-ceiling showers as the entry point. Shoops, Russell Park, and the older 75074 zip have first-generation Plano homes from the 1970s and early 80s where electrical panels often need upgrading before you can run an induction range or a heat pump. West Plano along Preston Road sees a steady stream of full-kitchen reconfigurations as families upgrade for school-district resale. PISD elementary boundaries drive a lot of remodeling decisions — owners stay in the home and renovate rather than chase a different school. We've delivered enough Plano kitchens to know exactly which cabinet runs hide which builder shortcut.

Permits, code, and HOA in Plano

City of Plano requires permits for kitchen and bath remodels that touch plumbing, electrical, structural, or HVAC. Plan review is typically 7–14 days for standard residential, faster with the online portal. Most Plano HOAs are strict — Willow Bend, West Plano, and Russell Park all require Architectural Review Board approval before exterior changes (windows, roof, paint, siding), and roof or window color has to match published palettes. ARB review runs 2–4 weeks depending on the meeting schedule. We submit early and route the approval before we start ordering materials.

Permit office: City of Plano Building Inspections (plano.gov/331/Building-Inspections). We pull every required permit and close it before final payment.

How we protect your home

Protecting what stays is standard on every Plano project — not an upgrade or a line item you have to ask for. Before demo we isolate the work zone so the rest of your home keeps living normally, and we leave it as clean as we found it.

• Floor and stair protection — ram board and adhesive film along every path the crew walks.
• Zippered dust barriers and negative-air machines where the work calls for it.
• HVAC returns sealed so demo dust doesn't travel through the ductwork.
• Cabinetry, counters, and landscaping that stay are covered and protected.
• Daily cleanup, and a final walkthrough so the home is left as clean as we found it.

FAQs — Plano

How long does a kitchen remodel take in Plano?

A cabinet refresh with new counters and paint is 2–3 weeks. A full reconfigure with new semi-custom cabinets in a Willow Bend or Legacy West home is 7–9 weeks. A custom build with layout changes (removing a wall, expanding into the breakfast nook) is 12–16 weeks including PISD-aligned scheduling.

Do you handle Plano HOA Architectural Review Board approvals?

Yes. We submit the application, attach the scope, and follow up through the meeting cycle. Willow Bend, West Plano, and Russell Park HOAs all have published approval timelines we plan around. We don't start exterior work without an approved ARB letter on file.

Are you familiar with PISD-area buyer expectations?

Yes. Plano resale runs PISD-feeder-driven, and buyer expectations are predictable — quartz counters, white or stained-painted cabinets, large-format tile in primary baths, smart thermostats, and updated panels. Our Better and Best tiers are scoped against PISD-area resale comps.

What's a typical bathroom remodel cost in Plano?

A guest bath refresh in a West Plano home is $10K–$18K. A primary suite reconfigure with new tile, vanity, and shower in a Willow Bend or Legacy West home is $32K–$50K. A full spa primary with plumbing moves and a freestanding tub is $50K–$75K+.

Do you replace HVAC systems sized for older Plano homes?

Yes. Most 1990s Plano homes have an oversized single-stage system on undersized returns. We do a Manual J calculation, sometimes downsize to a properly sized two-stage or variable-speed system, and rework returns when needed. Standard 3-ton replacements run $5.2K–$7.7K; variable-speed with IAQ runs $10.5K–$14.5K+.
