FAQ
General Question
HOW MUCH DOES A BATHROOM RENOVATION COST?
Our customers’ bathroom styles & sizes are always different, so we don’t mislead people by providing a one-price-fits-all solution. By uploading photos of your current bathroom via our contact form and specifying roughly what type of accessories you want, we can then provide you with an estimate over the phone.
We have an experienced team dedicated to providing mobile in-house quotes. We encourage you to schedule an appointment at a time that suits you, so we can properly assess the scope of work required to renovate your bathroom according to your specifications.
