Frequently Asked Questions: Bathroom Renovations in Nepean

How much does a bathroom renovation cost in Nepean?

Nepean bathroom renovations range from $10,000-$30,000. Updating dated finishes without layout changes costs $10,000-$18,000. Full remodels with new layouts and custom tile work run $20,000-$35,000.

My bathroom has pink/blue tile from the 1960s. What are my options?

Options include: complete tile replacement (most common and recommended), painting existing tile (budget option but less durable), or installing tile or panel overlays. Full replacement with modern neutral tile provides the best long-term result.

Should I convert my tub to a shower?

Tub-to-shower conversions are popular in Nepean for improved functionality and accessibility. Keep at least one tub in the house for resale value if you have children or may have them. Walk-in showers are often preferred in master bathrooms.

How do I update my 1980s oak bathroom vanity?

Replace the entire vanity for best results. New vanities with quartz countertops and modern hardware transform the space. If budget is limited, you can paint oak cabinets (requires proper prep and primer) and replace just the countertop and hardware.

My Nepean home has small bathrooms. How can I maximize space?

Strategies for small bathrooms include: wall-mounted vanities and toilets, recessed medicine cabinets and niches, glass shower doors instead of curtains, large mirrors, light colors, and strategic lighting. We can often improve functionality without expanding.

How long does a Nepean bathroom renovation take?

Standard Nepean bathroom renovations take 2-4 weeks. Older homes may take longer if we discover issues behind walls or need to update plumbing/electrical to code. We provide realistic timelines after our initial assessment.
