What moves the number
Tile scope
Floor-only vs full-height walls, and large-format or mosaic work, moves both material and labor significantly.
Shower system
A proper waterproofed custom shower with frameless glass is the priciest single element in most primary baths.
Moving fixtures
Relocating a toilet or sink a few feet typically adds $1,500–$4,000 in plumbing and floor work.
Vanity & fixtures
Stock vs custom vanities and fixture finish lines (chrome vs brushed brass) swing the finish budget.
Timeline
A typical bathroom remodel takes 3–5 weeks; large primary baths with custom tile and glass run 6–8 weeks. Permits in some suburbs add 1–2 weeks. See the full GS process step by step, or how homeowners pay for a remodel.
