Cost questions

Before you set a budget

What makes a bathroom cost more?

A bigger room, a curbless shower, moving the toilet or shower drain, natural stone, frameless glass or a heated floor. In the older village homes of Lebanon and Waynesville, replacing old drains and leveling the floor add to it.

Which costs sit outside this number?

Moving walls or windows, adding a bathroom where there was none, and anything outside the bathroom itself.

Does a bathroom cost more in Mason than in Franklin?

Labor runs about the same across the county, because the same crews drive to all of it. The house matters more: a home from the 1800s usually hides more behind the tile than one built in 2002.

Beyond labor, what else is in the price?

Materials, permit fees, overhead such as insurance and trucks, and a normal margin. Each one has its own line on this page.
