Do you need a permit to remodel a bathroom in CT?
CT bathroom remodel is a project best left to professionals. Contractors typically charge between $50 and $75 per hour to do the work, which will come out to 40% to 65% of your total budget. Labor costs are usually less expensive than materials, but they can vary depending on the project and location.
A basic bathroom remodel can be completed for $10,000 to $15,000. More upscale bathrooms may cost up to $40,000 or more, with premium upgrades like a sauna and built-in sound system adding to the price tag.
Before you begin your remodel, compile a wish list with all of the features you’re hoping to include. Divide your list into “must haves” and “nice-to-haves.” This will help you narrow down your options and focus on the most important elements of your bathroom.
It’s also worth noting that some larger projects require permits, including those that involve structural, electrical, or plumbing changes. Your contractor should include permit fees in their pricing.
Demolition is another major expense, and it may be required for a complete gut renovation that removes all walls down to the studs in order to change up the floor plan. Removing and rerouting plumbing lines, rewiring electrical and installing new lighting will drive up the cost as well.
