Hi, I'm Anthony.
I started this company because I was tired of seeing what passes for bathroom remodeling in DFW — cement board on second-floor showers, premixed grout in wet rooms, three subcontractors who never met before showing up to your house in the same week.
Golden Era is owner-operated. I'm on every job site, every day, from demo through the final caulk line. I waterproof every shower with Schluter Kerdi or RedGard, set every tile with real cement or epoxy grout, and I sign every estimate myself.

Our Process
A typical DFW master bathroom remodel runs 4 to 6 weeks. We tell you the schedule before demo starts, and we don't move from it.
Phase 1 — Design & Material Selection (1 to 4 weeks before demo)
Lock every tile, vanity, faucet, fixture, and glass spec on paper before tools come out. Skip this and your project stalls mid-build.
Phase 2 — Demo (1 to 3 days)
We tear out the tub, shower, vanity, toilet, flooring, and tile. We document anything we find behind the walls before we move on.
Phase 3 — Rough-In (3 to 7 days)
Plumbing rough-in, electrical rough-in, framing changes, niche framing, shower pan prep — and the city inspection that closes everything in.
Phase 4 — Tile, Drywall + Waterproofing (5 to 12 days)
Cement board. Schluter Kerdi or RedGard waterproofing. Pan. Tile. Grout. Cure. This is the longest phase and it can't be rushed.
Phase 5 — Paint, Vanity + Fixtures (3 to 5 days)
The bathroom starts to look like a bathroom again. Paint, vanity, sink, faucet, toilet, lighting, plumbing trim-out.
Phase 6 — Glass + Punch List (5 to 14 days)
Custom glass measured, fabricated in DFW, installed. Punch list walked. Final inspection. You have your bathroom back.

What clients say
"Anthony was on site every day. He told us exactly what to expect, and that's what we got. The tile work in our master shower is the best we've seen in any home."
— Sarah K., Plano · Master Bath, 2025
"Five weeks, on the dollar. We had three other contractors come out before Golden Era. None of them could explain what they were going to do behind the walls. Anthony walked us through every layer."
— David R., Frisco · Walk-in Shower Conversion, 2025
"We've remodeled three houses. This was the first contractor who actually told us what he was NOT going to do — no premixed grout, no shortcut waterproofing. We trusted him from the first walk-through."
— Jennifer M., Highland Park · Tudor Master Bath, 2024
