Best Bathroom Remodeling in Denver,

If the thought of remodeling your bathroom puts stars in your eyes, the price tag may quickly bring you back down to earth.

The median cost of a bathroom remodel was $3,300 in 2019, according to a U.S. Census Bureau survey of homeowners. A remodel is defined as a job that makes substantial changes to a room but stops short of building or tearing down walls. A major renovation, which is often a larger project, typically set home-improvers back $10,000, according to the same survey. In yet another source, Remodeling magazine suggests a midrange bathroom remodel costs about $21,377, on average, according to its 2020 Cost vs. Value report.

Obviously the cost of a bathroom remodel is hardly set in stone and difficult to estimate. It can depend on where you live, your bathroom’s size, how significant your changes are, your choice of fixtures and materials, the contractor you hire and whether permits are required.

Knowing costs in advance — and how to keep them under control — is the best way to keep bathroom remodeling dreams from flushing your budget down the drain.

"We know common pitfalls and can point out opportunities for immediate improvement," says Tennille Wood, CEO and principal designer at Beautiful Habitat in Denver.

After labor, homeowners spend most of their remodeling budget on vanities (10%-30%), fixtures like sinks and toilets (10%-20%), and faucets and plumbing (12%-16%), according to HomeAdvisor.

In a breakdown of bathroom remodeling costs, the biggest single expense is labor: On average, 40% to 65% of the total price pays for professionals to tear out old elements and install new ones, according to the home improvement website HomeAdvisor.

You could do the design and installation yourself, but you'd better be sure you have the know-how. Professionals have education, skills and experience that will help keep your project on track by avoiding mistakes and dealing with hidden problems that can emerge during a renovation.

With that in mind, decide whether you need a simple refresh or a full remodel to achieve a practical, attractive result. Painting, resurfacing cabinets and adding a modern light fixture can make a bathroom feel new without breaking the bank. But if your bathroom is poorly laid out or badly outdated, a full remodel — overhauling everything from the shower to the flooring — might be the right way to go.
