Learn How Much Bathroom Remodeling Costs in Your Area
How Much is a Bathroom Remodel?
Bathroom remodeling can range from simple updates to extensive layout changes, and the average cost of a bathroom remodel will vary depending on the approach you want to take. Here, we take a look at the average cost for three different types of bathroom remodeling: Upscale, accessible, and midrange bathroom remodeling.
The national average cost of a midrange bathroom remodel is $24,606 according to the 2023 Cost vs. Value Report. This data is based on a midrange project that includes updating a 5×7-foot bathroom with a new bathtub, toilet, vanity, faucet fixtures, and recessed medicine cabinet, as well as a ceramic tile shower surround, and finished walls and floors. This average cost, which includes labor, is down 9.4% from 2022, and up 24.9% from 2018.


Upscale bathroom remodels cost considerably more, especially when enlarging the footprint. Expanding a standard 35-square-foot bathroom to 100 square feet can cost $76,827 on average, including all new fixtures, a separate bathtub and shower, new cabinetry, dual sinks with stone countertops, and additional upgraded finishes and accessories.

How Can I Lower the Cost of Renovating a Bathroom?
Remodeing a bathroom can be expensive, but there are plenty of ways to maximize the value of your investment.
- Don’t Hesitate. The average cost of renovating a bathroom will continue to rise, so getting your project started sooner rather than later is the easiest way to save money. Improveit offers down-to-the-penny quotes that are good for a full year. Schedule an appointment today to insulate your investment against price increases into 2024!
- Invest in Quality. Choosing value-priced bathroom products and services may seem like a smart cost-saving measure, but can cost more in the long run. Budget-level bathroom remodeling, like tub and shower liners, rarely solve underlying problems like leaky plumbing and mold. You’ll end up replacing those low-cost “solutions” at least once more, and potentially pay for costly repairs as well.
- Choose the Best Warranty. Taking advantage of Improveit’s unbeatable warranty will also save you from having to remodel your bathroom ever again (unless you want to, of course!). Our lifetime, transferrable warranty covers both labor and materials – and can be transferred to new owners, adding value to the sale of your home.
- Take Advantage of Financing. The right financing can help bath remodeling projects fit comfortably into your everyday budget. An Improveit design consultant can discuss numerous available options to fit your needs.
- Consider Your Time & Energy. Remember, not all savings are financial. Improveit’s high-quality acrylic bath and shower systems are so low maintenance, you’ll never have to scrub your shower again.
