Want to give your bathroom a makeover?
Nothing can freshen up a space or increase the value of your home like a brand new bathroom. The tiles, the fixtures, the sinks, and more! There are so many ways to renovate your space.
But before you start on or hire out any work in the bathroom, it’s important to know the costs.
Read on to learn about how much it will cost to remodel a bathroom, depending on your goals.
It can be difficult to get an exact estimate on your bathroom remodel because the price can vary greatly depending on the types of materials you use. You could spend a few hundred dollars on a toilet or a few thousand dollars!
It’s all in the details and the quality of materials you purchase along with where they come from. It’s always important to compare the costs of the same materials from different vendors.
You want to be sure a vendor isn’t up charging for the cost of material or for their cost of labor. Labor costs are an entirely different expense, but one that’s unavoidable unless you plan to do the renovation yourself.
Typically speaking, a bathroom renovation can cost anywhere from $2,500 – $25,000.
Why the huge range?
Well, again, it depends on the cost of the materials you select. And doing a bathroom renovation on a low budget doesn’t necessarily mean you’re getting poor quality materials.
If you’re not working with a designer, select a few style options on your own. Do some research on the way you’d like it to look so when it comes time for the contractor to give you a bid, he knows the types of materials you’re interested in.
If you already have a budget set for your bathroom renovation, you can ask your contractor to find similar materials if they ones you’ve selected end up being too expensive.
Be sure to ask your contractor to be realistic with you about the cost of not only materials but of labor and how long the project will take.
Aside from the materials you use and the cost of labor, the kind of remodel you do will play a huge part in the ultimate cost.
For example, if you opt out of any structural changes and simply want to change out the tiles, sinks, countertops, etc., you’re dealing with a much more reasonable and affordable job than doing a major structural remodel.
Here’s a range of cost for each bathroom item:
As you can see, if you select the low end of the range for each of these items, you can embark on a very reasonably priced bathroom remodel. Of course, if you select the high-end materials, your cost will rise accordingly.
On the other hand, if you are going to change the layout of the bathroom and move plumbing around, you can expect to pay much more.
With the information above, you’ll be ready to remodel a bathroom in your home. You now have an idea of what the cost will be and how you can go about saving money where it counts.
