Your shower is leaking, the tiles are cracked, or the layout just doesn’t work anymore. Before you call anyone, you want to know roughly what a bathroom renovation costs in Cyprus so you’re not caught off guard by the first quote you get. Here’s what actually drives the price.
What makes up the cost of a bathroom renovation?
Tiling, the shower or bath, sanitary ware, and waterproofing make up most of the budget, with labor on top. Waterproofing in particular is not optional. It’s the part of the job that prevents leaks into the floor below, and skipping it or doing it poorly is the most common cause of expensive repairs later.
Fittings like taps, toilets, and the shower system vary widely in price. Mid-range fittings from known brands last well without the premium price tag of the top end.
How much does a small bathroom renovation cost?
A small bathroom with the same layout, new tiles, new fittings, and no plumbing changes is the most affordable option. This is common in apartments where the bathroom is compact and the existing pipe positions already work.
How much does a full bathroom renovation cost?
Moving the toilet, shower, or sink to new positions raises the cost, because it means new plumbing runs and often breaking into the floor. A full renovation with new plumbing, new tiling floor to ceiling, and a full waterproofing membrane sits at the higher end.
If you’re combining a bath and shower into a walk-in shower, or adding underfloor heating, these are separate additions on top of the base renovation cost.
What should you never cut corners on in a bathroom renovation?
Waterproofing is the one part of a bathroom renovation you should never reduce the budget on. A poorly waterproofed bathroom can cause damage to the ceiling and walls below within a year, which costs far more to fix than doing it properly the first time.
Ventilation is the second thing worth getting right. A bathroom without proper extraction leads to mold on tiles and grout, even in a newly renovated space.
