Bathroom Remodel CT Price Estimates by Type

To get an idea of how to budget for your bathroom remodeling in Fairfield County CT, let’s first look at the type of bath remodel you want to be done.

 A “full bathroom” is made up of four components. They are:

• Sink

We can break down your total average bathroom remodeling cost. Almost every bathroom type will contain a toilet. According to Architectureideas.info, there are five different types of bathrooms, we can consider.

Average renovation costs: $18,578 to $25,139

Luxury Wash Basin

The hallmark of a beautiful, luxury bathroom is a high-quality washbasin. Often a work of art all by themselves, luxury washbasins can be made from marble, ceramic, steel, and can make the simple act of washing one’s face a pleasure.

Average cost: $123 to $2,000

Average cost: $1,500 to $4,700

High Quality Toilet

Few bathrooms could be complete without an attractive and dependable toilet. The best high quality toilets are simple, unobtrusive, and highly functional. You can spend as little as $500 on a simple toilet. But the best toilets available today feature hidden tanks. These are small and minimalistic. They save space, and they are highly functional.

Average cost: $500 to $4,800 

Bathroom Remodeling Finishing Options

There are many wonderful finishing options to choose from. Tile and marble are classic, timeless, and come in a wide range of types and designs. Chrome and metal surfaces can be long-lasting, and give that desirable feeling of cleanliness. Wood is always an option for cabinets and trim, but it requires more maintenance than other materials. Glass is always a great option for closing in a shower area, but it can be used much more than you might expect. Installing a big, panoramic window fixture around a soaking tub is a sure way to make your luxury bathroom renovation stand out in Fairfield County.

Depending on the materials you choose and the complexity of your design, the average bathroom finishing will cost between $50 and $80 per square foot.
