This is a quick estimate under normal circumstances. I am creating this list using the cheapest materials I can find. Tubs, tiles, faucets, sinks, cabinets, and toilets can really vary in prices ranging from low end to insane high. I am also including the details you may have not thought about - building material
A 50 cent mesh bag used to remove your debris after the demolition of your old bathroom, doesn't sound like much - but you'll be using over 40 bags in your standard complete bathroom renovation - costing $20 before you even started. Lumber, wood screws, drywall, cement board, tile glue, etc .. will run you a few more hundred dollars than expected. Don't forget dumping fee's.
On the list below, I rounded off the numbers for quick math. The prices are an approximate price and vary from store to store. Always look for specials. Your bathroom also will be different from the 12 x 12 bathroom we are using so you should add a few more dollars to your budget just in case.
You'll also want to learn a little about tiles, that on sale tile might not be such a good idea if they always break or are uneven. Buy enough extra tiles for a bad cut or future repairs. Your tiles may be next impossible to find if the style has been discontinued. I see this problem all of the time. Think ahead. |
