Salon & Med-Spa Build-Out Cost in DFW

Salon or med-spa refresh, second-generation $40 to $80/SF. Salon or med-spa from a cold dark shell $110 to $160/SF. Med-spa work sits in the cold-shell range rather than carrying its own tier: treatment rooms, specialty plumbing and IPL-ready electrical move a salon number the same way extra wash stations do, and the range is wide enough to hold both. Permits and standard city inspections are in the range; salon and treatment equipment, design and engineering, and landlord fees are priced separately and named in the written scope.

New wash or treatment stations need supply and drain lines run to a slab that was not planned for them, which can mean cutting and repouring concrete plus rerouting under-slab drainage. Keeping stations where the plumbing already runs is the single biggest saving available on a salon scope.
