How Much Does a Bathroom Remodel Cost in Westchester and Fairfield County?

Bathrooms are small rooms with a lot of work packed into them: plumbing, waterproofing, tile, electrical and fixtures all meet in a few square feet. That is why a bathroom can cost more per square foot than almost any other room. Here is what to expect in Westchester, the Bronx, New York City and Fairfield County.

Typical bathroom remodel ranges

• Standard full bathroom, standard materials: about $18,000 to $28,000
• Mid-grade walk-in shower bathroom: about $30,000 to $38,000
• Large primary bath with soaking tub and premium finishes: about $55,000 to $70,000 or more

What drives the price

The shower or tub

A tub with new tile surround costs the least. A custom tiled walk-in shower costs more because it needs a built pan, careful waterproofing and more tile. Adding a separate freestanding tub raises the price again. See our guide to choosing between a shower and a tub.

Tile

Tile price is only part of the cost. Larger tile, patterns and natural stone take more time to install. Read our tile comparison.

Vanity and fixtures

A double vanity, a furniture style vanity and designer faucets all add cost. A heated floor is a popular upgrade that adds a smaller amount.

Moving plumbing

Keeping the toilet, sink and shower where they are saves money. Moving them means opening floors and walls.

Waterproofing

Waterproofing is the work you never see, and it matters most. Skipping it to save money is how leaks start. Learn why waterproofing matters.

Ways to save without cutting corners

• Keep the existing layout.
• Pick a standard size tile and a simple layout.
• Splurge on one feature, such as the shower glass or the vanity, and keep the rest simple.
• Choose fixtures early so they are ready when the plumber needs them.
