Bathroom Renovation

Bathroom Renovation in Toronto & the GTA

From a new vanity to a complete gut-and-rebuild, TGV Construction Group plans, permits and builds your bathroom with one team. The photos on this page are from our own recent bathroom jobs across the GTA.

Full Bathroom Renovations

A full renovation takes the room back to the studs and subfloor and rebuilds it: plumbing and electrical where they need to change, proper waterproofing, tile, fixtures, lighting and ventilation.

Once the materials have arrived, most full bathrooms take about two to four weeks of work on site. One team runs every trade, so you deal with one contractor from start to finish.

Walk-In Showers & Tub-to-Shower Conversions

Replacing an old tub with a walk-in shower is one of the most requested bathroom upgrades. A tiled shower is only as good as the waterproofing behind the tile, which is where most failed bathrooms start - so that is the part we never rush.

Niches, benches, glass doors or panels, and low-threshold bases are planned in from the start.

Accessible Bathrooms

For aging in place, a family member with limited mobility or a commercial washroom, we build bathrooms that are easier and safer to use: low-threshold or curbless showers, grab bars on proper backing, wider doors and comfort-height fixtures.

  • Low-threshold showers
  • Grab bars and backing
  • Wider doors
  • Comfort-height toilets

Custom & Luxury Bathrooms

Large-format tile, feature walls, heated floors, custom vanities and frameless glass - a custom bathroom needs careful layout and flat, true walls and floors before the first tile goes down.

Vanity & Bathroom Updates

Not every bathroom needs a full gut. A new vanity, toilet, faucet, flooring or paint can change the room in a few days. Replacing fixtures in the same place usually does not need a permit; moving plumbing or wiring does.

Step by step

How a bathroom renovation works

  1. Site visit: we measure the room, check the plumbing, the floor and any signs of water damage, and talk through what you want.
  2. Free written quote with the scope of work.
  3. Choose materials - custom vanities and some tiles take weeks to arrive, so we order early.
  4. Permit, if plumbing or electrical is moved.
  5. Demolition and rough-in, with inspections where a permit applies.
  6. Waterproofing, tile, fixtures and finishing.
  7. Final walkthrough with you.

Planning your budget

How much does a bathroom renovation cost?

Every bathroom is different, so treat these only as a rough guide. A full bathroom renovation in the GTA can range from around $15,000 to $38,000; a cosmetic refresh can cost less, and large custom ensuites considerably more. A custom tiled shower on its own can add somewhere around $6,000 to $14,000.

What moves the price most: the size of the room, whether the plumbing moves, the condition behind the walls and under the floor, and the tile and fixtures you choose.

Every home is different. Prices on this website are only rough ranges from typical GTA projects, not a quote: your price depends on what we find on site, the size and condition of the space, the materials you choose and the permits needed, and it is set only in your written quote after a site visit.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

How much does a bathroom renovation cost in Toronto?

It depends on the size of the room, whether the plumbing moves and the finishes you choose. As a rough guide, a full bathroom renovation in the GTA can range from around $15,000 to $38,000, with cosmetic refreshes lower and custom ensuites higher. Your price is set only in your written quote.

How long does a bathroom renovation take?

Once the materials have arrived, most full bathrooms take about two to four weeks of work on site. Custom vanities and special-order tile can add weeks before work starts, which is why we order early.

Do I need a permit to renovate my bathroom?

Replacing finishes and fixtures in the same place usually does not need a permit. Moving plumbing or electrical, or changing walls, generally does - we tell you which applies and handle the permit.

Can you convert my tub into a walk-in shower?

Yes. Tub-to-shower conversions are one of our most common bathroom jobs, with the waterproofing, drain, tile and glass done by one team.

Do you build accessible bathrooms?

Yes - low-threshold or curbless showers, grab bars on proper backing, wider doors and comfort-height fixtures, for homes and commercial washrooms.
