Enrique and his team are real professionals. I initially hired him to do some interior painting. He repaired the walls, ceilings and painted everything beautifully. The work was so impressive that I hired him for additional projects. His attention to detail is remarkable and his pricing is very fair.

Master Bathroom Remodel FAQs

Common questions about master bathroom renovations in New Jersey

How much does a master bathroom remodel cost?
A master bathroom remodel in New Jersey typically costs $35,000-$100,000+. Mid-range renovations with quality materials run $45,000-$70,000, while high-end custom master baths with luxury features like heated floors, steam showers, and designer fixtures can exceed $100,000-$150,000.
How long does a master bathroom remodel take?
A master bathroom remodel typically takes 8-12 weeks from start to finish. The design phase takes 4-6 weeks, followed by 6-10 weeks of construction. Complex renovations with structural changes, custom features, or specialty materials may take 12-16 weeks.
What features add the most value to a master bathroom?
Features that add the most value to a master bathroom include: walk-in showers with frameless glass (especially curbless designs), double vanities with adequate storage, freestanding soaking tubs, heated tile floors, quality tile work, proper lighting, and luxury fixtures. These features typically recover 60-70% of their cost at resale.
Should I include a tub in my master bathroom remodel?
For most master bathrooms, yes - having at least one tub in the home is recommended for resale value. A freestanding soaking tub is the most popular choice for master baths. However, if you never use a tub and space is limited, a luxurious walk-in shower can be equally appealing to buyers.
What is the most expensive part of a master bathroom remodel?
Labor is typically the most expensive component (40-50% of total cost), followed by tile and natural stone materials, custom cabinetry, and high-end fixtures. Moving plumbing locations, structural changes, and premium features like steam showers significantly increase costs.
How do I choose a contractor for a luxury master bathroom remodel?
For luxury master bath remodels, look for contractors with: strong portfolio of high-end bathroom projects, valid NJ license and insurance, excellent reviews (4.8+ stars), experience with premium materials, clear communication, and detailed contracts. Request references specifically for master bathroom projects.
