What Drives the Cost
Eight Factors That Determine
Your Bathroom Renovation Budget.
Every bathroom remodel is shaped by eight variables. Understanding them empowers you to spend exactly where it matters most — and protect the rest.
Bathroom Size & Footprint
Larger footprint means more tile, waterproofing, and labour. Small bathroom remodels under 4m² cost significantly less than full ensuite renovations — but demand more spatial intelligence.
Tile & Stone Selection
Entry-level porcelain from R150/m². Imported marble and Calacatta stone R600–R2,500/m². Material choice alone can swing a bath remodel cost by R20,000–R80,000.
Fixture & Tapware Specification
Tapware ranges from R3,500 to R45,000+ per piece. We source across all tiers — Roca, Grohe, Crosswater, Hansgrohe — and advise on where specification pays dividends.
Shower Doors & Glass Enclosures
A basic shower door starts at R4,500. A fully frameless floor-to-ceiling enclosure runs R18,000–R45,000 depending on glass thickness and configuration.
Demolition & Waterproofing
Stripping to substrate and applying a certified waterproof membrane is non-negotiable. Budget R4,500–R12,000. This is never a line to cut — failures here cost five times as much to fix.
Custom Cabinetry & Vanity
Vanity units range from R5,500 (off-the-shelf) to R45,000+ (bespoke joinery). Our in-house joiners design to the millimetre — no filler panels, no visible carcasses, ever.
Plumbing & Electrical Works
Relocating plumbing adds R8,000–R25,000. Adding underfloor heating or lighting circuits adds R6,000–R18,000. Plan these in the design phase — retrofitting costs three times more.
Design & Project Management
Our 3D design and project management is included in all renovation packages. Standalone services start from R8,500 — most clients find it saves twice that in avoided mistakes.

Small Bathroom Remodel & Redesign
Small Space.
Extraordinary Outcome.
A small bathroom redesign is not a lesser project — it is a harder one. Spatial resolution, material proportion, and light management matter more in a compact footprint than in any other room in the home.
Our AI-powered 3D visualisation is especially powerful here – seeing your small bathroom at scale in photorealistic 3D before committing prevents the most common and costly remodelling mistakes.

Common Questions
Bathroom Renovation Costs - Answered Honestly.
FAQ
How much does a bathroom renovation cost in Johannesburg?
A full bathroom renovation in Johannesburg starts at around R25,000 for a cosmetic remodel and ranges to R250,000+ for a bespoke luxury transformation. The variables are tile quality, fixture specification, bathroom size, and whether plumbing or electrical is relocated. We provide a fully itemised fixed-price quote with no provisional sums.
FAQ
What is the cost to redo a small bathroom?
A small bathroom redesign under 4m² typically costs R15,000–R65,000 depending on scope. A cosmetic refresh sits at the lower end. A full gut renovation with custom cabinetry and premium stone sits at the upper end. We 3D-design small bathrooms with particular spatial precision — the decisions matter more in a compact footprint.
FAQ
How much does shower installation cost near me in Gauteng?
Shower installation costs in Gauteng range from R4,500 for a shower door only, to R85,000+ for a luxury frameless wet room with linear drain and rain shower system. A standard tiled shower installation with frameless glass runs R8,500–R22,000 all-inclusive — labour, waterproofing, tile, glass and all fittings.
FAQ
Do you include design in your bathroom renovation cost?
Yes. Quick latest tech powered 3D design and full project management is included in all renovation packages.

FAQ

Yes — supply and installation is how the majority of our clients work with us. We source from premium suppliers including Crosswater, Grohe, Hansgrohe, Roca and RAK Ceramics across all price tiers.
