What do Bathroom Remodels Cost?

Thinking of remodeling your bathroom but don’t know what costs are involved? We’ll walk you through some of the most significant chunks of cash you’ll have to front for your project and some hidden costs that could be uncovered during the process. While remodels are indeed a significant investment, not all bathroom remodels have to cost a fortune.

Significant Investments to Be Aware of:

Reconfiguring your Layout

If you’re planning on reconfiguring the layout of your bathroom, expect to be looking at a more significant investment. Taking down walls, moving plumbing, and moving electrical will take place should you choose to reconfigure your bathroom. In addition, any hidden “DIYs gone wrong” or items that don’t meet code requirements for your area will need to be fixed and brought up to code.

Product Choices

The cost of your product choices will also make a massive difference in your final investment. For instance, if you choose natural stone countertops over cultured marble countertops for your vanity, you will likely be looking at a good couple hundred dollar difference. If you decide to go with natural stone, you will have the countertop cost and a sink. Whereas with cultured marble, the countertop and sink are a single, seamless piece.

Unforeseeable Repairs

While it’s never fun to uncover mold, mildew, asbestos, or other hidden items, it is relatively common to find something unexpected during a bathroom renovation. Moisture can get trapped if not adequately ventilated, creating a breeding ground for fungi like mold. If unforeseen hazards are uncovered, they will need to be taken care of before moving forward with the project.
