Every Kind of Bathroom We Build
From a powder room refresh to a full ensuite remodel, the same crew and the same standard of waterproofing behind every wall. No subcontracting the job out to whoever is free.
Full Bathroom Renovations
A full remodel down to the studs, plumbing and wiring brought up to code, then rebuilt watertight. Three to four weeks, from $15,000.
Walk-in Showers
A walk-in shower is the change we are asked for most: tub-to-shower conversions, curbless entries and frameless glass. See walk-in shower versus tub-shower combo.
Ensuites and Spa Bathrooms
Double vanities, heated floors and real storage. Why heated floors earn their keep in a Toronto winter.
Powder Rooms
Small room, big impression. The fastest renovation we do, usually inside two weeks, from $6,000.
Small Bathrooms
A small bathroom remodel needs better planning, not fewer trades. Storage first; our small bathroom storage guide shows the thinking.
Accessible and Aging in Place
Curbless showers, reinforced walls for grab bars, comfort-height fixtures. Planned properly it looks like design, not equipment. See senior-friendly planning.
Watch Sam Renovate a Bathroom on TV
renoWOW! founder Sam Beninato was invited onto the Marc and Mandy Show to walk through one of our complete bathroom renovations.
A few minutes long, and it shows exactly how we think: structure and water first, finishes second. The story behind that build is in renoWOW! on the Marc and Mandy Show. Sam has also been featured on HGTV and quoted in the Toronto editions of Metro, The Globe and Mail and The Huffington Post.
The Most Requested Job: Out With the Tub, In With a Real Shower
It is the single most popular bathroom remodel we are asked for. In the same footprint, a tub-to-shower conversion runs one to two weeks and $6,000 to $15,000. The drain usually moves, the walls get proper waterproofing, and a tiled niche replaces the wire caddy. Keep one tub in the house if you can; buyers with small kids look for it.
A curbless entry means rebuilding the floor to slope to the drain, so it is a build decision, not a finish. Frameless glass is templated after the tile is set and takes about a week to arrive, which we build into the schedule instead of pretending otherwise. Weighing materials? Read tile versus acrylic shower walls.
Cost and Timing, in Plain Numbers
The two questions every homeowner asks first, answered without the runaround. Most Toronto bathrooms land between $15,000 and $40,000 and take three to four weeks on site.

How the 3 to 4 weeks actually go
- Before day one: tile, vanity and glass ordered, 2 to 4 weeks of lead time
- Days 1–5: demolition, then plumbing and electrical rough-in, inspected
- Days 6–8: waterproofing with full cure time, the step rushed jobs skip
- Days 9–18: tile, grout, vanity, fixtures and paint
- Week 4: frameless glass installed, walkthrough, warranty in writing
Why it cannot honestly be faster: how much time a bathroom renovation really needs.
The Work You Never See Is the Work That Matters
Bathrooms fail behind the tile, not on it. Waterproofing, slope and ventilation decide whether your renovation is still dry in year eight, and none of them show up in an after photo.
Before tile goes on we flood-test the shower pan and check that the exhaust fan is sized for the room and ducted outside rather than into the attic, one of the most common problems we find in houses we open up. A fan venting into an attic feeds mould quietly for years. Any contractor can tile over it and you would never know until the ceiling below starts to stain.

Old Toronto Houses and Condo Towers Need Different Answers
Century and postwar houses: galvanized supply lines, cast iron stacks, and joists that three previous renovations have chewed through. We open floors expecting all of it, price a contingency honestly, and fix what we find while the room is open, when it is cheap.
Condo suites: the plumbing stack decides what can move, the board decides when you can work, and the certificate of insurance decides whether you can start at all. We handle approvals, elevator bookings and working-hour rules before day one.
Basement bathrooms: usually a question of where the drain is and whether the slab needs breaking. We tell you at the consultation, not after the concrete saw shows up.

View projectWhat Toronto Homeowners Say About Their Bathrooms
This is the second major renovation that Sam and his team have completed for us and we couldn't be happier. Our bathrooms are beautiful and all of the work was done with care and attention to detail that always exceeds our expectations. The team are flexible, professional and communicate clearly throughout the project. They use many measures to keep your home clean and protected throughout the job and our neighbours even commented on the care being taken.
We recently completed an extensive renovation with Reno Wow, including our kitchen and master bathroom now turned into our master spa. They are knowledgeable, responsive, and trustworthy. The work is high quality and most importantly the whole project was delivered on time and on budget. I would not hesitate to use the team again and highly recommend Sam and his crew.
I'm beyond happy with my condo renovations! RenoWOW! was great to work with, super responsive, had great suggestions, used quality materials and finished everything faster than expected. Thanks to Sam & his team, the space looks absolutely stunning! Highly recommend!
This was the second time I have used RenoWow, and once again they were excellent. They completed our basement, including bathroom, kitchen, a bar and ceiling work. I really appreciate the open and transparent visibility of all costs and potential extras. The quality is always exemplary and the workers polite, clean and timely. Highly recommend.
Very happy with the job Sam and his team did in my bathrooms. I came in with an idea and Sam was able to pick out tile, vanity and other bathroom stuff that fit my vision perfectly, making the process super easy for me. Paul and JJ were great working in my house, super nice guys that look to be held accountable and make sure the jobs done right.
We had a bathroom totally renovated by renoWOW! and the results are awesome. We started with some ideas and a lot of anxiety. Sam helped us develop a plan that was perfect for us. He is very easy to talk to, listens, is very detailed oriented and made many helpful suggestions that we had never considered. The project was completed on time with minimum disruption.
How a renoWOW! Bathroom Runs
First, a free consultation
Sam walks the space with you, checks what the plumbing and structure will allow, and follows up with a written scope and a fixed price. No allowances that balloon later.
Then everything goes on order
Tile, vanity, fixtures and glass are confirmed before demolition, because a gutted bathroom waiting on a backordered vanity is the most common reason renovations run long.
The build
Dust barriers, floor protection, the same crew throughout, and inspections before anything closes. Waterproofing gets its full cure time even when the schedule is tight.
Walkthrough and warranty
Every detail checked with you, then two years of workmanship warranty in writing.

Toronto Bathroom Renovation FAQ
How much does a bathroom renovation cost in Toronto?
Most of the bathrooms we build land between $15,000 and $40,000. A powder room refresh starts around $6,000, a standard three-piece where we keep the layout usually runs $15,000 to $25,000, and a primary ensuite with a new layout can reach $45,000. The part that surprises people: labour is about half the bill. Plumbers and electricians here bill $100 to $200 an hour, so who does the work moves your price more than which tile you pick. Every quote we write is itemized, and prices exclude HST.
How long does a bathroom renovation take?
Three to four weeks in your house for a full renovation, plus two to four weeks before that while we get the tile, vanity and glass on order. If someone tells you they can gut and finish a bathroom in a week, ask them when the waterproofing cures. That is the corner being cut, and you find out about it a few years later. A tub-to-shower swap in the same spot is quicker, usually one to two weeks.
Why are the quotes I am getting so different?
Because you are not comparing the same job. One quote has the waterproofing, permits and disposal built in. Another leaves them out and they come back later as extras. Ask every contractor the same two questions: what happens if you open the wall and find rot, and is this price fixed or an estimate? Ours is fixed, it is itemized, and the boring expensive parts are already in it.
Can I use my only bathroom while it is being renovated?
Not while we are working in it, and we will not pretend otherwise. We keep the toilet running as far into demolition as the plumbing allows and get it back in service as early as we can. If it is the only bathroom in the house, tell us at the consultation. We tighten up the schedule and give you the exact days you will be without it so you can plan around them. You do not need to move out. We seal off the work area and the rest of your home carries on as normal.
Do I need a permit to renovate a bathroom in Toronto?
If everything stays roughly where it is, no. You need one when the plumbing moves a fair distance, when a wall comes out, or when you are putting a bathroom somewhere there never was one. Electrical goes through the ESA either way. As your contractor we pull the permit and handle the inspections, so it is not something you have to chase.
How much does a tub-to-shower conversion cost?
Usually $6,000 to $15,000, and it comes down to two things: whether the drain has to move, and what we find once the wall is open. It is the single change we are asked for most. Done in the same footprint it usually avoids the permit question altogether. If you want a curbless entry, budget a bit more, because the floor has to be rebuilt to slope to the drain.
What does a small bathroom renovation cost?
Less, but not as much less as people hope. Expect $14,000 to $22,000 for a small bathroom remodel done properly. A small room still needs the same plumber, the same electrician and the same waterproofing behind the walls. You simply buy less tile. Where a small room really costs you is storage, so we sort out the vanity and the niches before we talk about anything pretty.
Do you renovate condo bathrooms?
Yes, we are in condo buildings constantly. Budget 10 to 20 percent more than the same bathroom in a house. That is not us charging extra for the work; it is board approvals, the certificate of insurance, booking the service elevator and being held to set working hours. The plumbing stack also decides what can move and what cannot. We deal with all of that before day one so the schedule actually holds.
Does renovating two or three bathrooms at once cost less?
Per bathroom, yes, usually 10 to 15 percent less than doing them a few years apart. We mobilize once, order tile once, book the inspector once, and the trades move room to room instead of coming back a second time. You also get one stretch of mess instead of two.
What does the two-year warranty cover?
Our workmanship, and you get it in writing. If a tile lets go because of the way it was set, a joint fails, or something we built leaks, we come back and put it right. There is no invoice for that. Your fixtures carry their own manufacturer warranties on top of ours. What it does not cover is the house doing something unrelated, like a supply line letting go inside a wall we never opened.
