Bathroom remodeling in Durham, NC

Cost depends on scope — a shower and fixture refresh costs less than a full renovation that reconfigures plumbing and layout. B & S provides a free, itemized estimate before any work begins, so you know the real number upfront rather than guessing from a national average.

Replacing a shower surround, fixtures, or a vanity within the existing footprint costs less because plumbing stays where it is. A full renovation that relocates the toilet, tub, or shower drain costs more — it involves re-running plumbing and often reworking the subfloor. An in-person estimate is what turns this into a real number.

A standard bathroom renovation typically takes one to a few weeks from demolition to final walkthrough, depending on tile work and whether plumbing fixtures are moving. A powder room or shower-only update moves faster than a full gut renovation.

If your home has a second bathroom, work can usually proceed without major disruption to daily life. For a single-bathroom home, B & S will walk through timing and options with you upfront so there are no surprises mid-project.

Bathroom remodels are interior work and typically don't require HOA review, since they don't change the home's exterior. If your project does touch anything visible from outside — like a window or vent change — B & S can provide documentation for HOA approval.
