What a Bathroom Renovation Costs in Vancouver (2026)
- Cosmetic refresh (new vanity, toilet, fixtures, paint — no tile or plumbing changes): $8,000–$15,000
- Standard full bathroom (full gut, new tile, waterproofing, vanity, shower, same layout): $15,000–$35,000
- Primary ensuite (walk-in shower, soaker tub, heated floors, double vanity, custom tile): $30,000–$65,000+
The biggest cost drivers are plumbing relocation (adds $3,000–$8,000), tile selection and layout complexity, and whether the project requires heated floor installation (adds $1,500–$3,500 including dedicated circuit).
Permits for Bathroom Renovations in Vancouver
A plumbing permit is required any time supply lines or drains are moved or added. An electrical permit is required for new circuits, heated floors, or panel upgrades. A building permit is required for structural changes or converting a half-bath to a full bath. K K Home pulls all permits and coordinates inspections — rough-in, waterproofing, and final.
How Long Does a Bathroom Renovation Take?
A standard full bathroom renovation takes 2–4 weeks of active construction once permits are approved. A primary ensuite with custom tile and frameless glass runs 4–6 weeks. Tile delivery and glass fabrication (3–4 week lead time after measurement) are the most common schedule constraints.
