Cost guide

The biggest cost drivers are scope, layout and finishes.

A cosmetic refresh and a full gut renovation are different projects. Moving plumbing, rebuilding a shower, repairing subfloor, adding electrical work, using large-format or detailed tile, heated flooring, custom glass and premium fixtures all change the labour and material requirements.

Keep the layout

Keeping the toilet, vanity and shower/tub in their existing locations can reduce plumbing changes and complexity.

Shower construction

A tiled walk-in shower requires proper substrate preparation, waterproofing, drainage, tile and usually glass.

Hidden conditions

Older bathrooms can reveal damaged subfloor, framing or previous DIY work after demolition. A good quote explains how unforeseen work will be handled.

Compare scope, not just the bottom line.

When comparing bathroom estimates, check whether demolition and disposal, waterproofing, tile setting materials, plumbing/electrical coordination, trim, paint, fixture installation and cleanup are included. A lower number can simply mean a shorter scope.

Common questions

What homeowners ask us

Can you quote from photos alone?

Photos are useful for an initial conversation, but an on-site look is often needed for a dependable renovation scope.

Does moving plumbing increase cost?

Usually. Relocating a toilet, shower, tub or vanity can add plumbing work and may affect framing, flooring and finishes.

Can I supply my own vanity or fixtures?

Yes, where appropriate. Customer-supplied items can be identified clearly in the written scope.

Why are bathroom quotes from contractors so different?

The included scope, waterproofing method, materials, trade work, allowances and assumptions can differ significantly. Compare what is included, not only the total.
