National Average for Bathroom Remodeling

This estimate is based on a 35-40 square foot bathroom. All fixtures and other items quoted are basic and functional. The remodeling contractor would do the following:
Install a standard porcelain toilet.
Lay down moisture-resistent vinyl wallpaper or paint with latex paint.
Install a dip-coat 60" long porcelain/steel tub and shower combination.
Install ceramic tile surround, around tub, with basic four-inch square tile.
Install a solid-surface counter with integrated sink.
Install single-lever shower control.
Install lighted combination mirror/medicine cabinet.
Lay down ceramic tile floor. The consensus is that, on average, $16,000 to $17,500 would cover this type of bathroom remodeling project. Keep in mind that this is bare minimum. For many homeowners, this is just a functional second or third bathroom--far from the type of marble-and-chrome paradise you see featured in shelter magazines.
