The primary determinant in estimating the price is whether you plan a minor refresh—such as repainting and replacing fixtures like taps and vanity—or a complete bathroom renovation. This article will focus on the latter as that’s our area of expertise. Another key factor is the size of the room. Smaller spaces, such as a 1m x 2m ensuite bathroom, will typically cost less to renovate due to the lesser materials and labour required, compared to larger spaces like a 3m x 3m bathroom.
So, let’s get into the nitty-gritty.

In Summary
Shelley, our Bathroom Designer, advises that when working out how much does a Bathroom Renovation cost, set aside 5 to 10% of your home’s value for renovations, especially for key areas like the kitchen, bathroom, and laundry.
When planning a renovation, it’s essential to prioritise long-term value over immediate savings. Additionally, upgrading areas such as the kitchen and bathrooms can significantly increase your home’s market value—potentially by up to $250,000—if you’re considering selling it in the future.
While some designs may become outdated after a decade, it’s crucial to carefully consider the style and consult with our interior designers. This will allow you to enjoy your newly renovated bathroom in the short term and capitalise on your investment when it’s time to sell.
