How to Use This Calculator
This calculator provides a realistic estimate for a full bathroom remodel based on 2025 national averages. Actual contractor bids will vary based on your specific zip code and the complexity of your home's plumbing.
Understanding the Tiers
- Budget ($125/sq ft): Keeps existing layout. Uses off-the-shelf vanity, acrylic tub/shower surround, and vinyl flooring. DIY-friendly finishes.
- Mid-Range ($225/sq ft): The "standard" remodel. Porcelain tile, semi-custom vanity, quartz countertop, new lighting, and a glass shower door.
- Luxury ($400+/sq ft): High-end materials. Natural stone, custom cabinetry, frameless glass enclosure, rain shower head, and often structural changes.
Hidden Costs to Watch For
Always budget a 15-20% contingency fund for unexpected issues. Common surprises in bathrooms include:
- Water Damage: Rotting subfloor around the toilet or tub is often invisible until demolition.
- Old Plumbing: Galvanized pipes or non-code-compliant drains may need replacing.
- Mold Remediation: If mold is found behind walls, professional removal is required.
