Four fields. We call back within one business day to set up the site visit.
A salon or med-spa in Dallas can go into service retail and restaurant space on Lower Greenville, in Bishop Arts and in Oak Lawn, or second-generation suites in Deep Ellum and the Design District, and the number moves less with the finish package than with how far the water has to go. Every shampoo bowl and pedicure chair needs hot and cold supply, a drain and a vent, and every treatment room its own plumbing and electrical, so the station layout is locked before mobilization. In Dallas, the work we quote most includes creative, studio and showroom space, as well as salon suites, barbershops and med-spas.
Dallas review runs longer than the suburbs around it, so the schedule risk on a Dallas job sits in the review queue rather than in the field. On a salon the wait is when the station layout is locked and the plumbing is drawn to it, because adding a station after the walls close means opening them again.

Permitting in Dallas
Commercial tenant improvements in Dallas permit through the City of Dallas, with separate mechanical, electrical and plumbing permits depending on scope. Dallas review runs at the long end of the three to four weeks we see across our markets, or past it, so we pre-file and quote the schedule with the queue in it.
What the price includes
- Plumbing routing to wash and treatment stations, the usual cost driver
- Station layout locked before mobilization, so no finished wall is opened later
- Permit filing and City of Dallas inspection scheduling
- Freight elevator, loading dock and after-hours access booked with building management
- One-year workmanship warranty
Salon & Med-Spa Build-Out in Dallas: common questions
What does a salon or med-spa build-out cost in Dallas?
The rate does not change between Dallas and the suburbs. What changes is the building and the queue. Salon or med-spa refresh, second-generation runs $40 to $80/SF, and Salon or med-spa from a cold dark shell runs $110 to $160/SF. These are budgeting ranges, not a quote: scope moves the number more than square footage does, and every job is scoped and priced per project after a site walk. Permits and standard city inspections are in the price. FF&E, design and engineering, landlord fees and the category adders are priced separately and named in the written scope.
Who permits a salon or med-spa build-out in Dallas?
The City of Dallas issues the building permit, and the trade permits follow the scope. Plumbing to every wash and treatment station is permitted and inspected at rough-in, before the walls close, which is why the station layout is locked first.
How does a storefront on Lower Greenville, in Bishop Arts or in Oak Lawn compare with a suite in Deep Ellum or the Design District for a salon or med-spa build-out?
On Lower Greenville, in Bishop Arts and in Oak Lawn, a second-generation salon bay with the wash stations already plumbed is a refresh; a bay that was anything else needs water run to every station. In Deep Ellum and the Design District, second-generation space is cheaper only when what the last tenant left fits your layout. Usable systems are a head start; dead duct and abandoned circuits are a cleanup. We confirm which one you are looking at on the walk, before you budget.
Can you build a suite-style salon in Dallas?
Yes. Suite-style salons add demising-wall framing and individual plumbing and electrical drops to each suite. Every suite adds framing, a door and its own rough-ins, which is why a suite build sits toward the top of the cold-shell range.
When does a Dallas salon or med-spa build-out need a TDLR accessibility review?
When construction cost passes $50,000. At that point the project is registered with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation and reviewed against the Texas Accessibility Standards by a registered accessibility specialist, and the registration goes in before the permit application. It is a common reason a Dallas job quoted at four weeks of field work takes three months start to finish, and it is in the written scope when it applies.
