Bathroom remodeling cost guide
Bathrooms pack plumbing, tile, waterproofing, and fixtures into a small footprint, so cost-per-square-foot runs high. Moving the toilet, tub, or shower drain is the fastest way to add cost.
What drives bathroom remodeling cost
- Whether you keep fixtures in place or relocate plumbing.
- Tile area, pattern complexity, and waterproofing in wet zones.
- Vanity, shower glass, and fixture quality tier.
- Hidden water damage or rot uncovered during demolition.
