Budget

Bathroom remodeling projects can cost anywhere from $2,500.00 for minor cosmetic upgrades, to well over $50,000.00 for an elaborate spa like creation.

One thing to keep in mind, while you are in the budgeting process, is that when you have professional remodeling done to your home, you are increasing the value of your home not only to yourself, with your enjoyment of the finished project, but to prospective buyers when the time comes to sell. And if you are like us (we own homes too) our home is our greatest single investment. If we can make our investment appreciate by doing a professional remodel, and we get to enjoy that investment on a daily basis, then we truly have invested wisely.

Colvin Bath's are a featured selling point when the time comes to market your home. A Colvin Bath adds value to your property and should be listed in the description of your home. Several ads in the local MLS "Homes" magazine have featured Colvin Bath's as a valued selling point.

With that said we have included some typical price ranges that you can use to calculate a rough dollar amount that you will need to be prepared to invest in your home when you remodel your bathroom.

Keep in mind that our prices are for complete packages that include all demolition, hauling away of old materials, supplying and installing all new materials, wall repairs and sales tax.

A standard tub-to-shower conversion package starts at $5,000.00.

Replacing your bathtub with a walk-in bathtub will start at $9,500.00.

A tiled shower with faucet, shower door and a tiled shower base will start at $5,500.00.

A basic bathroom facelift with new vanity top, lavatory, faucet, mirror, light fixture, vinyl flooring, and painting will run $4,000.00 - $6,000.00, or more, depending on fixtures selected.

Doing the above plus replacing the toilet, vanity, bathtub, tiled tub surround and exhaust fan will cost $9,000.00 - $12,000.00+ again depending on fixtures selected.

Adding a Jacuzzi whirlpool bathtub will add $1,500.00 or more to the above price.

A heated ceramic floor with thermostat and programmable 7-day timer will add approximately $1,500.00 to your investment.

Adding a steam generator to the shower with tiled walls and shower base and steam tight custom enclosure can add $3,500.00 - $5,000.00.

A multi-head shower system with body sprays, personal shower on glide bar, fixed shower head and a rainfall shower head extending from the ceiling can add $4,500.00 or more.

On a national average it has been calculated that the average professionally completed bathroom remodeling project will require an investment of around $12,000.00. In our region we have found that, depending on final product selections, that figure could be high but it can also easily be doubled.

Professional bathroom remodeling isn't cheap. Per square foot, this will be the most expensive room in your home. No other room in your home has as many features that are required to perform as many times each day as are the fixtures in our bathrooms. The average bathroom only has a major renovation completed once every 30 years. Over this period of time, on average, your toilet will be flushed in excess of 120,000 times and your shower will be used more than 38,000 times.

Classic style is important, however, quality products and installations are crucial and will pay dividends with long term reliability, durability and sell-ability. As stated by Benjamin Franklin "The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten."

Payment options include cash, check, Visa, MasterCard, Discover or, with approved credit, you may elect to take advantage of our 12 month same as cash program.
