This page covers the factors that affect shower remodel cost. For pricing based on your shower, call us or request a free quote.
The shower configuration affects cost. A standard alcove shower costs less to remodel than a large walk-in shower with a bench and niche. Bigger showers need more tile, more waterproofing, and more labor.
Tile is priced per square foot. Porcelain, ceramic, and large-format tile each have different price points. Full wall coverage costs more than partial coverage. Mosaic floor tile costs more to install than large wall tile because of the piece count. See tile shower installation for more.
Shower fixtures include the showerhead, the valve, the handle, and any handheld or body spray additions. A basic showerhead and valve cost less than a thermostatic valve with a rain shower and handheld. Your fixture choices affect the total.
Waterproofing is the layer behind the tile that keeps water out of the wall. The scope of waterproofing depends on the shower. A full rebuild needs a complete waterproofing system. A surface update may not. We do not make unsupported claims about proprietary systems.
The shower base can be a solid surface pan or a tiled pan. A solid surface pan is manufactured and faster to install. A tiled pan is built on site with a waterproof membrane and slope. If the existing pan is failing, see shower pan replacement.
The enclosure affects cost. A frameless glass door costs more than a standard sliding door. A fixed glass panel with an open entry is another option. The enclosure depends on the shower configuration.
If the remodel moves the showerhead, adds a handheld, or changes the valve, plumbing work is involved. Keeping the existing plumbing layout costs less than moving it.
We do not publish fixed shower remodel prices because the scope varies too much. A replacement of a surround is a different project from a full tile rebuild with a new pan and glass enclosure. A project-specific quote is the only accurate way to price a shower remodel.
