Can You Afford To Remodel Your Bathroom?

Are you considering remodeling your bathroom? If so, you are probably wondering how much it will cost.

The good news is that the expense of remodeling a bathroom varies greatly and can be tailored to fit any budget. In this blog, we will look at factors that influence the cost of remodeling an average size bathroom and provide an estimated budget breakdown.

Cost Factors

The total cost of a bathroom can vary based on several factors, such as the size of the room, the type of materials used, and the job's complexity. Here are some other things to consider when estimating your costs:

Labor Costs 

Depending on the scope of work, labor costs can range from $25-100 per hour for a licensed contractor.

Plumbing Costs 

Replacing plumbing fixtures such as sinks, toilets, and showers may require expensive repairs due to moving existing plumbing lines.

Electrical Costs

Rewiring or adding new outlets or light fixtures may be necessary, depending on what type of renovation you have in mind.

Materials Cost

Cabinets, flooring, tile, and countertops all add up quickly when planning a bathroom renovation. In addition, you may need to factor in additional material costs such as paint and fixtures.

Once you've gathered your estimates for each item, it’s important to add 10%-15% extra in case something unexpected comes up during the project. That way, you won’t be stuck with an unfinished project or find yourself without enough money at the end of it all!
