Thinking about giving your bathroom a fresh new look? Whether you’re planning a simple makeover or a full transformation, two of the most common questions we hear are: How long does a bathroom renovation take? and What does a bathroom renovation cost? Here’s a straightforward guide to help you plan your project with confidence.
How Long Does a Bathroom Renovation Take?
The time it takes to complete a bathroom renovation depends on the size of your bathroom, the complexity of the work, and whether you’re making structural changes. Here’s a typical timeline:
- Basic Refresh (new fixtures, paint, minor updates): 3–5 days
- Standard Renovation (new bath, shower, tiling, flooring, lighting): 1–2 weeks
- Full Remodel (layout changes, plumbing/electric work, custom features): 2–3 weeks

What Does a Bathroom Renovation Cost?
Bathroom renovation costs can vary widely depending on your choices and the size of your space. Here’s what to consider:
- Size of Bathroom: Larger spaces require more materials and labour.
- Quality of Fixtures & Fittings: Premium tiles, taps, and baths can increase costs, but also boost comfort and value.
- Scope of Work: Moving plumbing, adding lighting, or installing underfloor heating will affect the price.
