This is one of the most common questions our clients ask at the beginning of any project. “What will it cost?” When it comes to master bathrooms we always start by letting clients know the average cost from low to high.
For a master bathroom on the low end with just basic renovations, essentially replacing what’s there now in the same exact place with minimal construction and using lower end cabinets (particle board boxes and veneer doors), plastic laminate counters, vinyl flooring, a white or almond colored shower surround you are usually at a starting point of $7,000.
The average master bathroom remodel costs $20,000. For this price range you will be able to make some changes to the layout, go with decent quality cabinets, granite counters, tiled shower, tile floor, and good quality fixtures.
High end master bathroom remodels can cost well over $40,000. When we design high end bathrooms for clients we are specifying top of the line cabinets, such as Wood-Mode, Poggenpohl, Snaidero, or custom-made cabinets. Counters are often quartz. High quality porcelain or stone tile is installed on the floor and walls. There is usually a jetted tub and a large shower with a bench, niches and frameless glass surround/door. Steam showers are becoming more popular in high-end bathrooms as well.
Whatever budget range you find yourself in, making smart decisions in layout and selection of materials and finishes will make all the difference. The master bathroom is an expensive room, be sure to protect your investment by consulting with a professional interior designer to insure you’re making wise choices.
