Social media has changed our lives in more ways than one. When it comes to our standard of living, social media has been a great contributor to its increase in recent times. The concept of picture-worthy homes and lavish houses has transformed the concept of a dream house.
If you’re also someone inspired by awe-striking, luxurious bathrooms, the first question would probably be about the cost of such a remodeling job.
What is the Cost of Bathroom Remodeling Services in CA?
The answer to this question is not so simple. You’ll find different figures everywhere. Based on these figures, we can safely say that the average cost of a bathroom remodel ranges from $25k-100k.
Now this is a huge range because bathroom remodeling services quote you a price based on several different factors including the location. According to the New York Times, the average cost of bathroom remodeling service in CA is $34,911. This is higher than any other state in the New York Times’ 2022 report.
Cost Factors of a Bathroom Remodel
A lot of factors contribute to the cost of a bathroom remodel including material costs, the time the project takes (that adds up the labor costs), and the complexity of the project (adds up on labor expertise costs).
Because costs are directly related to the type of project, we will go through some of these projects and give you a cost estimate for each so you can wisely make your decision:
1. Remodeling a Wet Area
If your project includes remodeling a wet area, you should know that this area must be waterproofed. However, if your bathroom already has a designated wet area and you just need to install a bathtub, you will not have to pay a lot in labor costs since the job is small and quick. In such a project, the major cost will be that of a bathtub.
On the other hand, if your project entails converting part or whole of the bathroom into a wet area, it requires significant demolition, retiling, and replumbing. Therefore, you’ll be paying a lot in both material and labor costs.
2. Updating Cabinetry
Cabinetry can make a huge impact on the overall look of your bathroom. The best part about this project is that ready-to-assemble cabinets can cost around $100-$200 per unit and installation costs are also not very high. However, before you select cabinetry for your bathroom, make sure that you choose a material that can withstand humidity otherwise it will soon need replacement.
3. Changing Faucets and Plumbing
Upgrading your bathroom’s faucets is not expensive as you can change faucets in your bathroom yourself. However, if you require major plumbing work like changing the position of your toilet or bathtub, you will have to hire a plumber that costs around $75 – $120 per hour. The complete cost then depends on the complexity of the project.
4. Installing New Flooring
The cost of new flooring depends on the material you choose and the square footage of your bathroom. There is also a range of materials available for bathroom flooring including hardwood, natural stone, and tiles. The project’s estimated time and labor costs depend on the tile size you select.
Final Words
The cost of bathroom remodeling services greatly depends on the kind of project that you are choosing for your home and the licensing of the services company. But even if you’re on budget, make sure you always select a company with licensed contractors. This way you will always get high quality work that shows that you’ve invested and delivers a high value for money over time.
