- Paint + new vanity ($1,500–$3,000): Fresh paint, a new stock vanity, and updated mirror transform the room instantly
- Reglaze the tub ($500–$1,000): Instead of replacing, reglaze your existing tub to look brand new
- New flooring ($1,000–$2,500): Vinyl plank or ceramic tile — durable, waterproof, and affordable
- Update fixtures ($500–$1,500): New faucet, showerhead, towel bars, and light fixtures modernize the space
- Refinish cabinets ($800–$1,500): Paint or reface existing vanity cabinets instead of replacing
Mid-Range Upgrades ($5,000–$12,000)
- New tub/shower surround ($2,500–$5,000): Replace old tile or fiberglass with modern acrylic or tile
- Full flooring + vanity + fixtures ($5,000–$8,000): Complete cosmetic refresh without moving plumbing
- Add a half-bath ($8,000–$12,000): Convert a closet or unused space into a powder room
Where to Save vs Where to Spend
- SAVE on: Vanity (stock vs custom saves $2,000+), toilet (standard models work great), paint (DIY-friendly), accessories (towel bars, mirrors)
- SPEND on: Plumbing (never cut corners), waterproofing (prevents $10,000+ water damage), ventilation (prevents mould), flooring (high-traffic, needs durability)
