Homeowners have many options when they remodel a bathroom and the total cost depends on style and budget. The average bathroom remodel costs $20,000 but you can spend less - between $5,000 and $10,000 - to fix up the essentials in a small- to medium-sized bathroom. On the other end of the spectrum, you could spend $35,000 to more than $50,000 turning your master bathroom into an oasis. Most homeowners spend between $20,000 and $35,000.

Bathroom remodels provide some of the highest resale returns as a home improvement project. However, it is not by any means cheap, and it can take a long time to complete. Therefore it is essential to gather and plan your bathroom remodeling ideas ahead of time for the room and then find the right remodeling contractor for the job. Asking questions, setting realistic expectations, cost estimates and budgeting from the start can mean the difference between finding a contractor you trust and enjoy working with versus a long and trying few weeks.
