Because you only want to do this once.
Drag the handle. Same bathroom, one day of work.
These quotes only work for homeowners. Whoever owns the place has to sign off on the work.
Good. Next: your ZIP code, then a few minutes of questions about your bathroom.
You have probably already spent hours on this. Search results that quote
nothing. Forum threads from four years ago. And two companies that came out and
gave you numbers that had nothing to do with each other.
Ask what a bathroom remodel costs and you’ll hear twenty thousand.
That figure is describing a gut job. Walls out, tile down, a week of showering
at somebody else’s place.
Most people asking the question have something smaller in mind. The old tub
comes out and a low-step shower goes into the same space. The pipes stay put.
One day of work in most homes.
Now watch what happens to the price of that job. A quote comes back high.
Then it drops by thousands if you sign that afternoon. The work stayed
the same. Only the number moved.
So how much of a quote is actually the bathroom?
The work itself barely varies. Same swap, same footprint, done thousands of
times a year. Work that repeats like that can be priced before anyone measures
anything. That’s where the low end of the range comes from.
There’s also more than one number. Two companies pricing the same bathroom
come back with figures that can sit thousands apart. Most homeowners never see
the second one, because getting it used to mean sitting through another visit.
And the number is only half of it. The other half is who does the work.
Until now the only way to compare two companies was to have both of them
over, which is why almost nobody does.
You can see what the work runs for your own bathroom before anyone comes to
the house, and see who does this work in your zip code. It takes a few minutes
of questions about the room. Nothing you answer commits you to anything, and no
price here expires.
