Quick answer
In Sydney in 2026, bathroom renovations typically range from $15,000 for a small ensuite with quality standard finishes, through $22,000 to $35,000 for a full main-bathroom rebuild, up to $35,000 to $80,000+ for luxury renovations with natural stone, freestanding baths, and custom joinery.
The single biggest cost driver is materials, followed by layout changes and the age of your home (which can hide surprises). Below: typical price tiers, what each includes, and the factors that move the number.

What Affects Your Quote
Six factors drive the bulk of bathroom renovation cost variation. Understanding these makes it easier to brief us realistically and get an accurate quote first time.
Size of the bathroom
Square metres drives almost every input cost: tile quantity, waterproofing area, labour hours. A small ensuite costs significantly less than a full main bathroom.
Quality of materials
The biggest swing factor. Off-the-shelf tiles vs natural stone, chrome tapware vs brushed brass, MDF vs solid timber joinery: each tier roughly doubles the material spend.
Layout and structural changes
Moving a wall, relocating plumbing, adding a window: anything that changes the footprint adds plumbing, structural, and electrical costs. Same finishes in the same layout always cost less.
Age of the home
Older Sydney homes (federation, post-war) often hide surprises: rotting subfloors, lead pipes, asbestos, non-compliant wiring. We allow contingency and surface anything before quoting.
Council and compliance
Most bathrooms don't need a DA, but waterproofing certifications, plumbing notifications, and electrical compliance are mandatory. We include all certifications in our fixed quote.
Custom design
Custom joinery, made-to-measure stone, bespoke shower screens. Beautiful, but they involve fabrication time and skilled labour that off-the-shelf doesn't.
Why a Fixed Quote Matters
The most common Sydney bathroom-renovation horror story isn't the work. It's the cost blowout. Here's how a fixed quote protects you.
No surprise variations
A fixed quote names every inclusion and exclusion in writing. Anything genuinely unforeseen (e.g. asbestos discovered behind a wall) is discussed and signed off before extra work begins, never sprung on you mid-project.
Material specifications locked in
Specific tiles, tapware, vanity, screen: all named in the quote. No "that brand isn't available, here's a cheaper alternative" surprises during the build.
Realistic timeline written down
Start date, end date, key milestones: committed in the quote. We plan around your life, not the other way around.
Backed by warranty
Every Artland renovation is covered by our workmanship warranty plus all manufacturer warranties on materials. Fixed quote, fixed protection.
