A bathroom remodel requires many steps, from hiring professional contractors to designing your space and setting up plumbing. While a complete bathroom remodel can take more than 10 weeks, most bathrooms are finished within 5-7 weeks. Your remodeling timeframe is based on the scope and complexity of your space. Luckily, working with a professional bathroom remodeler can help you stick to a timely and cost-effective process. Learn more about some of the essential steps of your bathroom remodeling timeframe.
Bathroom Preparations
One of the first steps you should take is scheduling a consultation with a local bathroom remodeling company. Once you choose a company, they’ll work with you to organize and schedule your entire renovation. The next step of bathroom remodeling is demolition, which includes the removal of old bathtubs, showers, tiles, and any items that will be removed. This allows your contractor to make a clean slate for new water barriers, fixtures, tile work, and bath/shower systems. Most contractors will complete demolition in 2 days.
Bathroom Installations
Once products arrive, the most time-consuming and important steps take place: bathroom installation. A full bathroom installation can take up to two weeks but is based on how many services you need, such as drywall, tiling, cabinetry, and painting. Look for a contractor who specializes in installation and plumbing services to avoid the cost and time of finding a subcontractor.
Shower Installation
Shower replacements are one of the quickest and easiest items to install. Since showers are installed using many parts, they’re faster to load and install into a space. While many showers can be installed in one day, complex systems may additional time to design and prepare.
Bathtub Installation
Bathtub replacements require heavy parts that can’t be broken up into smaller pieces. Their size and weight can make them more difficult to maneuver. Styles such as bathtub enclosures and bath/shower combos may also require more time than a freestanding tub. However, many bathtubs can be installed within a quick, one-day timeframe.
Accessible Installation
Accessible bathroom remodeling may require more time due to the complexity of the project. Contractors have to make way for wide wheelchair access, floor clearance, and ADA-compliant accessories. However, accessible bathrooms pay off with long-term convenience and user-friendly benefits.
