How much does bathroom remodeling cost?
Typical US cost: $9,400–$27,400 USD.
A bathroom remodel means replacing the tub or shower, toilet, vanity, flooring, and tile in an existing bathroom. The range runs from a cosmetic refresh that keeps the same layout to a fuller midrange remodel with new tile and fixtures; moving plumbing lines or expanding the room takes a project beyond it.
Price breakdown by scope

Ranges are drawn from published 2025–2026 market research (Angi/HomeAdvisor and Thumbtack contractor-reported data and national cost references). They are typical ranges, not quotes — a pro prices your actual job after seeing its size, condition and materials.
What drives the price
- Whether the layout stays the same or fixtures move to new positions
- Shower and tub choice — a standard tub, a tiled walk-in shower, or a tub-to-shower conversion
- Tile area and material, including the waterproofing behind wet-area walls
- Vanity size, and whether it is a stock unit or a custom build
- What demolition reveals: water damage, rot, or outdated plumbing and wiring
- Fixture and finish level across faucets, lighting, mirrors, and the exhaust fan
Common questions
How much does bathroom remodeling cost?
Typical US cost for bathroom remodeling is $9,400 to $27,400 USD, based on published market research. Your exact price depends on project size, scope and materials.
How can I get an exact bathroom remodeling quote?
Use the HomeTarget cost calculator for a range based on your project size, then request quotes — local pros price the actual job, and requesting quotes is free for homeowners.
How long will my bathroom be out of use?
A same-layout remodel commonly takes a few weeks from demolition to final fixtures, and the bathroom is unusable for most of that stretch. If it is your only bathroom, talk through sequencing and a temporary arrangement with the contractor before work starts.
Does a bathroom remodel need permits?
Like-for-like fixture swaps usually do not, but moving plumbing or electrical, changing ventilation, or any structural work generally does, and the rules are set locally. Your contractor should know what your city requires and pull the permits as part of the job.
