Try not to move the toilet.

Depending upon how you handle design that could be extra plus permits so I’d call it 100k.

Significant range of finishes make ball parking tricky.

I do larger remodels so I don’t break out primary baths but the last one I was asked to bid had a budget of 60k and it felt low so i passed.

One off kitchens or baths always seem to take a long time to finish so I try to avoid them as I focus more on whole house remodels.

I also don’t know the finish level of your home.

As part of a whole house remodel I just completed four (4) secondary baths - two conversions from tubs to showers.

Typical 6x9 baths.

Full wall tile on all surfaces.

Custom stain grade vanities - my cost was about 7k per vanity.

Mid tier plumbing fixtures.

Full demo - no major plumbing moves.

My cost on each was 35-40k.

Was part of a Construction Management job at 20% - so client cost was likely 45k-50k.

Thankfully there was significant interior millwork because the bathrooms were a lot of work for not a lot of money.

If you are wanted a similar bath as a one off project I’d probably charge you at least 60k.

I did a primary suite last year as part of another whole house interior model - less tile work but bigger bath, separate freestanding tub, and no wall tiles but some custom built-ins. I didn’t do the numbers on that bath alone - the whole job was about 750k for a 4500 sq. ft. home - didn’t include the kitchen as that was a separate contract. That bath would likely be between 75k-100k.

Hard to be efficient at baths unless that’s your niche and you self perform.

I’d tell contractors 75k budget and plan on spending 100k. And I’d tell you 2-3 months.

Hope this was helpful.

Good luck.

We removed the tub, moved the shower to enlarge it and made it a steam shower, new floor, fixtures, etc. Total cost was significantly less than $75k, but we did this at the same time as a kitchen Reno so there were some economies of scale (subs were already here, etc.).

Anonymous wrote:Gutting our very small (5x8) full guest bathroom was 50k in 2023. We had to replace plumbing stacks though, which was a significant cost. Did a custom small vanity, custom glass shower wall/door, wallpaper, millwork. We didn’t do any expensive stone - just penny and subway tiles. We had a higher end contractor.

75k might be fine but it really depends on your finishes - tiles, counters, custom vanity/shelving, whether you need to replace plumbing etc, if you’re relocating any plumbing, etc.
