Finished bathroom on Õismäe tee: vanity unit, mirror and towel rail

How much does a bathroom renovation cost?

The price of a bathroom renovation depends on several things. Here's what the price is made of, what makes it more expensive and where you can sensibly save.

In short: the price of a bathroom renovation depends mostly on three things: the size of the room, whether pipes and wiring need replacing, and which tiles and fittings you choose. No two bathrooms are the same, so an exact price can only be given after seeing the room.

What makes up the price?

  • Demolition and waste removal: old tiles, bath, toilet and basin.
  • Pipes: water and drainage. In an older building they are always worth replacing.
  • Electrics and ventilation: new wiring, lights and an extractor fan.
  • Preparing walls and floor: levelling and sloping the floor towards the drain.
  • Waterproofing: the layer that stops water soaking into walls and floor behind the tiles.
  • Tiling: the work and the tiles themselves.
  • Fittings: toilet, basin, taps, shower or bath, mirror.
  • Extras: underfloor heating, towel rail, space for a washing machine.

What makes it more expensive?

  • Old pipes in the wall: replacing them adds work and materials.
  • Crooked walls: large tiles in particular need very straight walls.
  • Walk-in shower: the floor has to slope towards a channel or drain, which is precise work.
  • Very small or very large tiles: both take longer to lay than standard tiles.
  • Wall-hung toilet: needs a frame and extra work.

Where can you sensibly save?

Save on tiles and fittings rather than on what goes inside the wall. Tiles and taps can be changed later. Poor waterproofing or old pipes inside the wall can't be fixed without another renovation.

Keeping the same layout also helps. If the toilet, shower and basin stay where they are, pipes don't need to be moved far.

How to compare quotes?

Ask for a quote that lists the work and materials. If one quote includes waterproofing and new pipes and another doesn't, they can't be compared, even if the totals differ. See also how to choose a renovation company.

Frequently asked questions

Is the quote free?

Yes. We'll come and look at the bathroom and give you a quote free of charge.

Can I pay for the renovation in instalments?

Yes, you can pay with renovation financing.

Can new tiles go over old ones?

Usually not. Old tiles must be removed to do proper waterproofing. Read more about waterproofing.
