## A Bathroom Remodel Pays You Back in More Ways Than One

Beyond a fresher, spa-like feel and smarter storage, a bathroom remodel is one of the higher-return projects you can take on — homeowners recover 80.0% of the cost at resale (2025 Cost vs. Value Report). If your layout, fixtures, or storage haven’t kept up with how your household actually uses the space, a remodel usually pays off in daily comfort as much as resale value.

Below you’ll find [project pricing by type](#project-types), our [top-ranked bathroom remodelers](#top-companies), and answers to the [most common questions](#faq). Still deciding whether you need a full remodel?

## What Are the Main Bathroom Remodeling Projects, and What Does Each Cost?

Every project below is priced as an installed national range covering labor and materials. The table lists them at a glance; the cards underneath add scope, timeline, and what pushes a job toward the top of its range. Local labor rates move these figures — your city page carries the adjusted numbers.

| Project Type | Typical Cost | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Full Bath Remodel | $8,000–$25,000 | Gut-and-replace of all fixtures, tile, and finishes |
| Tub-to-Shower Conversion | $2,500–$8,500 | Remove bathtub, install walk-in shower system |
| Walk-In Shower Addition | $4,000–$15,000 | New custom shower with glass enclosure |
| Master Bath Expansion | $15,000–$40,000 | Structural expansion of primary bathroom |
| Walk-In Tub Installation | $3,000–$12,000 | Accessible soaking tub for aging-in-place |
| Vanity & Fixture Update | $1,500–$6,000 | Vanity, sink, toilet, and fixture replacements |

![Full Bath Remodel](/images/bath/shutterstock_2110040738.jpg)

Full Bath Remodel

$8,000–$25,000

Every element gets replaced or reworked — tub or shower, toilet, vanity, flooring, and wall finishes — typically down to the studs in the wet areas. Most jobs take 2–4 weeks from demo to final walkthrough, depending on layout changes and material lead times. Best for bathrooms that are dated across the board or need a layout change, not just a fixture swap.

![Tub-to-Shower Conversion](/images/bath/shutterstock_2147527549.jpg)

Tub-to-Shower Conversion

$2,500–$8,500

The existing tub is removed and replaced with a walk-in shower base, wall surround, and door or curtain — usually a 1–3 day install with minimal plumbing rework if the drain location doesn't move. A common choice for homeowners aging in place or anyone who's stopped using the tub. Acrylic and fiberglass surrounds install fastest; tiled surrounds take longer but offer more design range.

![Walk-In Shower Addition](/images/bath/shutterstock_2299250059.jpg)

Walk-In Shower Addition

$4,000–$15,000

Building a new curbless or low-curb shower with a glass enclosure, typically where a tub previously stood or in a bathroom being reconfigured. Timeline runs 3–7 days for a standard footprint, longer if plumbing has to be relocated. Frameless glass and larger footprints push cost toward the top of the range.

![Master Bath Expansion](/images/bath/shutterstock_1066013894.jpg)

Master Bath Expansion

$15,000–$40,000

This is a structural project — pushing into a closet or adjacent room, moving plumbing lines, sometimes touching load-bearing framing. Expect 4–8 weeks including permitting, and plan for a general contractor coordinating trades rather than a single bath specialist. Right choice for homeowners who've outgrown their primary bath's footprint entirely.

![Walk-In Tub Installation](/images/bath/shutterstock_2136611285.jpg)

Walk-In Tub Installation

$3,000–$12,000

A tub with a low step-in threshold and a door-seal system, often with grab bars and a built-in seat; some models add hydrotherapy jets. Installation typically takes 1–2 days once the old tub is removed, assuming no plumbing relocation. Purpose-built for aging-in-place and mobility needs, not primarily a design upgrade.

![Vanity & Fixture Update](/images/bath/shutterstock_2225524671.jpg)

Vanity & Fixture Update

$1,500–$6,000

A cosmetic-tier refresh — new vanity, sink, faucet, toilet, lighting, and hardware — without touching tile, tub, or shower. Most jobs finish in 1–3 days since no wet-area waterproofing is involved. The lowest-cost, lowest-disruption way to modernize a bathroom that's structurally fine but visually dated.

## Which Bathroom Remodeling Companies Rank Highest?

These companies are ordered by their real customer rating, taken from public review platforms and dated when we recorded it. It is not an editorial score and not a ranking of build quality — most ratings describe a single branch listing, so read the scope note on each company’s review page before comparing.

Zintex Remodeling Group

★★★★★ 5.0 [Google (870 reviews)](https://www.google.com/maps/search/Zintex+Remodeling+Group) as of August 2026

Top-rated bath specialist in Texas. One-day installations in DFW, Houston, San Antonio, Austin.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Zintex Remodeling Group is a Texas bath specialist (DFW, Houston, San Antonio, Austin, and beyond) that has won a BBB Torch Award for ethics, and BBB reviews are overwhelmingly positive on crew professionalism and timeliness across its regional branches. As with any expanding regional company, confirm which specific branch is handling your job and their current lead times.

Long Home Products

★★★★★ 4.9 [Google (6,000+ reviews)](https://www.google.com/search?q=Long+Home+Products+google+rating) as of August 2026

65+ years on the East Coast. Bath, roofing, windows across 12 states including FL and NE.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Long Home Products has served the East Coast for 65+ years across bath, roofing, and windows, and reviews are strongest on crew professionalism and cleanup once a job is underway. Their marketing outreach is active — if you're not currently in the market, let them know directly and ask to be removed from their contact list.

Rite Window

★★★★★ 4.9 [Google (525 reviews)](https://www.google.com/maps/search/Rite+Window) as of August 2026

Exclusive KOHLER LuxStone shower wall dealer in the Northeast. Premium stone, no grout.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Rite Window is a Northeast installation specialist and the exclusive KOHLER LuxStone shower wall dealer in its region — a premium, grout-free stone shower product not available through most competitors in their coverage footprint. Now operating within the broader Renuity platform, expect their back-office and scheduling to increasingly resemble that network; confirm your specific installer's local track record at your consultation.

West Shore Home

★★★★★ 4.8 [Google (3,078 reviews)](https://www.google.com/maps/search/West+Shore+Home) as of August 2026

One-day bath systems in 20+ states. Custom acrylic panels with safety upgrade options.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

West Shore Home is one of the few bath remodelers that genuinely completes most jobs in a single day — they use W-2 employees (not subcontractors) and carry full workers' comp, which matters for in-home jobs. Reviews consistently back up the one-day claim and praise installer professionalism and pride in the finished product. Their acrylic system carries a lifetime warranty against cracking and staining. The in-home estimate is detailed and covers all material and installation options — budget 90–120 minutes for the appointment.

Bath Experts

★★★★★ 4.8 [Google (746 reviews)](https://www.google.com/maps/search/Bath+and+Cabinet+Experts) as of August 2026

Exclusive Jacuzzi dealer in IN/OH/KY. Full-service bath remodeling, regional 4.8-star rating.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Bath Experts is a regional bath remodeler in Indiana, Ohio, and Kentucky and an exclusive area Jacuzzi shower dealer, with reviews consistently praising one-day installs and finished-product quality. A recurring, fair note in reviews: ask about slip-resistant flooring options for your new shower floor, since a smooth wet surface can be a real safety consideration.

American Home Design

★★★★★ 4.8 [Google (1,672 reviews)](https://www.google.com/maps/search/American+Home+Design) as of August 2026

Windows + bath in one company. Lifetime warranty.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

American Home Design has specialized in windows and bath work around Nashville and greater Tennessee for 30+ years, and reviews are strongly positive on crew punctuality, efficiency, and clean job sites — including from repeat customers across multiple projects. As a regional company, confirm they currently serve your specific city before requesting a quote.

Kohler Walk-In Bath

★★★★★ 4.7 [Google (100+ reviews)](https://www.google.com/search?q=Kohler+Walk-In+Bath+google+rating) as of August 2026

USA-made walk-in tubs from America’s most trusted plumbing brand. Hydrotherapy, air massage, chromotherapy.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Kohler Walk-In Bath brings the KOHLER name and manufacturing standards to accessible bathing, with hydrotherapy, air massage, and chromotherapy options built in. Their rating reflects consistent satisfaction with safety and comfort features; a recurring practical note is confirming your home's water heater can keep up with jetted-tub fill times. Get the exact tub dimensions confirmed against your bathroom's doorway and floor space before ordering.

Quality Craftsmen

★★★★★ 4.7 [Google (562 reviews)](https://www.google.com/maps/search/Quality+Craftsmen+Bath+Florida) as of August 2026

Florida, Georgia, Tennessee bath specialist. Accessible bath and walk-in modifications.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Quality Craftsmen serves Florida, Georgia, and Tennessee with tub-to-shower conversions, and the large majority of reviews describe on-time, courteous, clean one-to-three-day installs. As with any remodeling job, get the full scope of work and any electrical/code requirements confirmed and documented before work begins, to avoid mid-project surprises.

ImproveIt! Home Remodeling

★★★★★ 4.7 [Google (1,455 reviews)](https://www.google.com/maps/search/ImproveIt+Home+Remodeling) as of August 2026

30+ years in OH/KY/TN. W-2 installers for bath and windows, one-day installs.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

ImproveIt! Home Remodeling has specialized in Ohio, Kentucky, and Tennessee for 30+ years, using W-2 (not subcontracted) installers for windows and bath work, backed by a transferable lifetime warranty that real customers cite as a key reason for choosing them. Reviews are strong on finished quality and crew professionalism; some note the in-home sales presentation runs long, so budget real time for that first visit.

American Standard Walk-In Tubs

★★★★★ 4.68 [ConsumerAffairs (2,347 reviews)](https://www.consumeraffairs.com/homeowners/american-standard-walk-in-baths.html) as of August 2026

Largest walk-in tub dealer network in the US. FAST Drain™ 5-minute drainage. All 50 states.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

American Standard Walk-In Tubs runs the largest walk-in tub dealer network in the US, sold through third-party dealers under various local business names rather than one national storefront. Reviews are solid on build quality and the FAST Drain feature; as with Kohler, confirm your water heater capacity for jetted models before the installation date.

Bath Fitter

★★★★★ 4.6 [Google (293 reviews)](https://www.google.com/maps/search/Bath+Fitter) as of August 2026

Original one-day liner specialist since 1984. Welded seams eliminate liner failure points.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Bath Fitter pioneered the one-day acrylic overlay model back in 1984 — installing over your existing tub or shower rather than demolishing it, which cuts both time and mess dramatically. Customer reviews frequently credit individual named installers by name for a clean, professional job; a smaller but real pattern of complaints centers on caulking/seal quality and slower warranty-service response, which is worth asking about directly. The transferable lifetime warranty only applies to acrylic products purchased after June 5, 2023 — confirm your purchase date qualifies.

[Read Full Review →](/bath-fitter-review/index.md)

Bath Concepts

★★★★★ 4.6 [Google (228 reviews)](https://www.google.com/maps/search/Bath+Planet) as of August 2026

Custom acrylic systems across 40+ states. Good accessibility conversion options.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Bath Concepts (the parent brand behind Bath Planet) is a manufacturer, not a direct installer — all work runs through independently owned and operated factory-certified dealers, so your actual experience depends heavily on which local dealer serves your area. Where reviews are available for a specific dealer, homeowners describe a genuine day-and-night transformation from old tub to new shower. Because quality is dealer-dependent, check reviews for your specific local Bath Planet dealer, not just the parent brand, before booking.

The Bath Authority

★★★★★ 4.6 [Google (628 reviews)](https://www.google.com/maps/search/The+Bath+Authority) as of August 2026

Regional bath specialist in MD/VA/NC/OH/PA/IN/MO/WI. One-day installation, lifetime warranty.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

The Bath Authority is a regional bath specialist across MD/VA/NC/OH/PA/IN/MO/WI, and independent review data (GuildQuality) shows roughly 82% of customers would recommend them, with jobs typically finishing in one to three days. The most common real feedback theme is post-sale communication on change orders and missing parts — get a single point of contact and expected response time in writing before your install date.

Mad City Windows & Baths

★★★★★ 4.5 [Google (3,992 reviews)](https://www.google.com/maps/search/Mad+City+Windows+%26+Baths) as of August 2026

Bath in 1 day - acrylic systems, 24 colors + 11 Impressions laser-etched patterns. Guildmaster 20-seal (20 consecutive years verified).

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Mad City Windows & Baths is a Wisconsin-founded multi-trade remodeler (windows, bath, cabinets) now operating as part of the Renuity home improvement platform — a regional brand within a national platform. Their Customer Bill of Rights and Guildmaster Award recognition reflect a genuine focus on installation accountability, and reviews back up the installer-level experience as professional and efficient. Because Mad City now shares back-office and scheduling systems with other Renuity brands, expect the sales and install experience to increasingly resemble that broader network.

Premier Home Pros

★★★★★ 4.4 [Google (534 reviews)](https://www.google.com/maps/search/Premier+Home+Pros) as of August 2026

Bath upgrades with nationwide availability in 17 key metropolitan markets.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Premier Home Pros installs Premier Stone’ solid-surface panels (marketed as twice the thickness of typical competitors) across 31 confirmed markets in the Midwest, Mid-Atlantic, and Southeast — they are not a nationwide company, so confirm your city is on their list before requesting a quote. Reviews consistently praise crew professionalism and efficiency on same-day shower conversions. Warranty terms aren't published nationally — ask for the specific written terms during your consultation.

[Read Full Review →](/premier-home-pros-review/index.md)

Clear Choice Home Improvement

★★★★★ 4.4 [Google (857 reviews)](https://www.google.com/maps/search/Clear+Choice+Home+Improvements+New+Hampshire) as of August 2026

Bath Concepts acrylic tub & shower systems; one-day installation options. Family-owned, local, 20+ years in New England.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Clear Choice markets itself across New England and Pennsylvania, but our own lead-routing data shows their most consistently active market concentrated around Harrisburg, PA — a regional specialist, not a national company. Reviews reflect a company accountable for a tight footprint: crews are praised for communication and clean installs on siding, gutter, and roofing work. Their fiber cement expertise includes James Hardie certification, and they offer detailed written estimates with itemized material and labor breakdowns. Confirm your specific ZIP is in their active service area before requesting a quote.

DaBella

★★★★★ 4.4 [Google (3,000+ reviews)](https://www.google.com/search?q=DaBella+reviews+google+rating) as of August 2026

Sentrel Bath Systems dealer - non-porous acrylic tubs & showers.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

DaBella is a GAF Master Elite and James Hardie Elite Preferred contractor offering roofing, siding, and windows with financing connected through unaffiliated third-party lenders (DaBella itself doesn't originate the loan). Independent review platforms show a wide range depending on where in the customer journey the review was left — ratings skew highest at the initial in-home consultation stage and are more mixed once you look past that first impression, which is worth knowing going in. Get the full warranty terms and financing APR in writing before signing, and don't feel pressured to decide in a single visit.

Hansons

★★★★★ 4.4 [Google (4,230 reviews)](https://www.google.com/maps/search/Hansons) as of August 2026

Lifetime No Leak Guarantee on bath enclosures; Delta-certified fixtures. 35+ years in business.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Hansons is a Great Lakes multi-trade specialist running its own in-house crews across windows, roofing, and siding, backed by a four-tier Smart Choice warranty system (only the top Smart Choice tier carries the full Lifetime Guarantee — ask which tier your quote includes). Customer reviews consistently describe the sales process as informative rather than pushy, and installation crews are frequently praised for speed on same-day multi-window jobs. Hansons is also an exclusive ProVia siding dealer in its markets, which is worth asking about if you're bundling projects.

[Read Full Review →](/hansons-windows-roofing-review/index.md)

Statewide Remodeling

★★★★★ 4.3 [Google (1,707 reviews)](https://www.google.com/maps/search/Statewide+Remodeling+Texas) as of August 2026

25+ year Texas multi-trade contractor. Bath, windows, patio covers in TX/OK/AR/NM/UT.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Statewide Remodeling is a Texas-based multi-trade remodeler (bath, windows, patio doors) now part of the Renuity platform, and reviews consistently praise on-time, professional crews and a low-pressure sales process across its projects. As Statewide integrates further into Renuity's national systems, confirm current scheduling and warranty contacts at the time you sign.

Independent Home Products

Rating coming soon — review research in progress

Factory-direct walk-in tubs and roll-in showers. LIFETIME warranty on product and installation. 48 states.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Independent Home Products is a factory-direct accessibility specialist offering walk-in tubs and roll-in showers with a lifetime warranty on both product and installation. We don't yet have a large enough independent review sample to confidently report a star rating for this brand — we're continuing to research and will publish one once we do.

Jacuzzi Walk-In Tub

Rating coming soon — review research in progress

Brand-name WhirlPool hydrotherapy in a walk-in tub. National dealer network, bariatric models available.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Jacuzzi-branded walk-in tubs are sold through regional dealers (in some markets operating as BathWraps) rather than one national Jacuzzi-run storefront, so your local dealer's track record matters more than the Jacuzzi name itself. We don't yet have a reliable, representative review sample for this brand to confidently report a star rating — we're continuing to research and recommend asking your local dealer directly for references before booking.

A bathroom remodel is a major investment, and pricing and quality vary widely by contractor. The companies below are shown in order of their real customer rating, sourced from public review platforms.

✍ Reviewed by the Remodel Your Home editorial team Updated: **August 19, 2026**

## Bathroom Remodelers, Bath Renovation and Tub-to-Shower Conversion

**Bathroom remodelers**, **bathroom remodeling companies** and **bathroom renovation** cover a range of projects that differ by an order of magnitude in cost, from a one-day surface replacement to a full gut with the layout moved.

A **tub-to-shower conversion** or acrylic surround replacement typically finishes in a day and leaves the plumbing where it is. A full renovation moves fixtures, opens walls and runs one to three weeks. Both get called a "bathroom remodel" — and quotes that look wildly different are often describing these two different jobs.

Acrylic systems install fast, are seamless and have no grout to maintain; tile offers more design range and stronger perception at resale in higher-end markets. Acrylic scratches more readily over time. Neither is simply better.

Be aware that several national **bath remodeling companies** will not quote a price by phone or online, only at an in-home appointment. That is a sales-process choice rather than a technical necessity, and it is worth having a competing written quote in hand before that appointment.

## Frequently Asked Questions

These are the questions homeowners ask most often before starting this project - what it costs, how long it takes, what a fair quote looks like and which details change the price. Each answer below is written to stand on its own, so you can read just the one you need.

### How much does a bathroom remodel cost?

A mid-range bathroom remodel costs $11,000–$16,000 nationally. Tub-to-shower conversions start at $2,500. Full custom renovations run $20,000–$35,000.

### How long does a bathroom remodel take?

Most bathroom remodels take 2–6 weeks. Acrylic system installations (West Shore Home, Bath Concepts) can be completed in 1–2 days. Custom tile work adds 2–3 weeks.

### Do I need a permit for a bathroom remodel?

Cosmetic updates that do not move plumbing or alter structure are the least likely to need a permit — confirm your scope before you start. Moving plumbing, walls, or electrical does. Ask your matched contractor to confirm in writing that they will pull every permit your scope requires.

### What is the ROI on a bathroom remodel?

A mid-range bathroom remodel recoups 80.0% of its cost at resale nationally (Zonda 2025). Returns can run higher in strong resale markets and lower in soft ones.

### How do I find a licensed bathroom remodeling contractor?

Check your state's contractor licensing board and ask for proof of active liability insurance before signing — don't just take a contractor's word for it.

### Is financing available for a bathroom remodel?

Most contractors matched through Remodel Your Home offer financing, including 0% promotional periods for qualified buyers. Ask about terms during your free estimate.

### What are signs it's time to remodel my bathroom?

Persistent mold or water stains, cracked or loose tile, an outdated layout, or safety concerns for aging in place (a walk-in tub or shower) are the most common reasons homeowners remodel.

### Should I remodel my bathroom myself or hire a professional?

Cosmetic updates like paint or hardware can be DIY. Anything involving plumbing, electrical, or structural changes should go to a licensed professional — mistakes here are expensive to fix later.
