How Much Does It Cost To Remodel a Bathroom?

Remodeling your bathroom might seem like a complex task, but proper planning can help you get the look and feel you want for your home.

What Matters Most When Remodeling Your Bathroom?
Take a few minutes to figure out what aspects of a bathroom remodel matter most to you. Here are a few key points to consider:

Do you want to change the look of your space or do you feel like it could function better after a renovation? Make a list of your top priorities.
What’s your timeline?

What’s your budget?
You’ll need to know what you can spend before determining which renovations you can make.
Average Cost by Bathroom Size
The size of your bathroom is a major factor when it comes to the cost of a renovation. Typically, homeowners spend more to renovate master bathrooms since they increase resale value and improve day-to-day function.

Features That May Affect Cost
Consider these factors for your project's cost:
Bathtubs: The size and style affect the price. Installing a freestanding tub might require extra plumbing expenses.
Cabinets and Vanities: Prices differ, with stock options being the most affordable. The size, top style, cabinetry, and materials used impact the cost. Custom cabinetry works well in small spaces or luxury bathrooms.
Countertops: The materials heavily influence the renovation cost. Stone is stylish but expensive. Prefabricated countertops are more budget-friendly and suitable for many spaces.
Faucet: The price depends on the manufacturer, style, and materials used.
Sink: Pedestal sinks, drop-in sinks, and designer options have varying costs. Drop-in sinks are affordable and available in many styles.
Toilet: Replacing an outdated toilet is simple and cost-effective. Basic and luxury models have varying prices, but installation costs are generally low.
Wall and Floor Tile: Popular choices for bathroom floor tile include ceramic, porcelain, and natural stone. The materials impact the cost, with natural stone being more difficult and expensive to install. Wall tile options range from natural stone and classic ceramic to glass and mosaic styles that imitate natural materials.

Considerations:
Location: Where you live could impact the cost of your bathroom renovation. Difficult tasks like installing a large soaking tub on the second floor might result in higher labor charges due to the complexity of the work.
Permits: Depending on your location, you may need permits for major bathroom renovations. These permits are usually inexpensive but can add to the overall cost and timeline.
Material changes: Replacing old flooring, adding a new tub, or changing shower tile may incur additional costs. These costs are typically included in the labor price when you receive a quote.
Water damage repairs: We can assist you in fixing water damage caused by bathroom leaks. The cost for these repairs will depend on the extent of the damage and may be included in the job.
Plumbing and electrical changes: Along with material changes, making adjustments to plumbing and electrical systems may result in additional costs. These costs are typically factored into the labor price when you receive a quote.
