How long does it take to remodel a bathroom?

Question

Just wondering if someone could help me. I need my bathroom renovating. The whole thing needs removing and new bath, sink and toilet installed along with tiling etc. It's about 3 metres by 3 metres. I cant have no use of my bathroom for too long so I just need to know how long i can expect it to take? Its a relatively basic unit that needs installing but if someone could provide me with some timeframes it would really help me plan everything out. Thank you very much.

Depends on how many men you throw at it, and what the state of the walls are once everything is stripped out. Total refurb: out, dry line walls/ceiling, new electrics, extractor fan, re-plumb (changing positions of toilet/bath etc takes longer), new flooring, (possibly replacing existing), install toilet, basin, bath, shower, plaster walls, paint (preferably three coats), tile, grout, paint any wood work, fit skirting etc. 

One person I reckon on two plus weeks depending on how much needs doing, up to three weeks maximum. Obviously much quicker with two people, but then you start falling over each other in a small space. Also logistically allow extra time if your in a tenth  floor flat. I’m currently on a job refitting the toilet every day for a family of four because it’s their only toilet, this inevitably adds time and cost. 

Much easier if you can go away for a week so that the contractor can get the bulk of it done

Hi, our fitters take 5 days from start to finish to remodel a full bathroom suite, and at no point is a customer left without use of toilet or clean water i.e sink/bath/shower we try to disrupt as little as possible for customers, can't really speak for other companies, this is our standards and practices

Hi there to be done correctly and allowing drying time for adhesive, grout and paint etc you are looking at 1-2 weeks

Gavin · Answer

In any renovation project of a bathroom a contractor has duty of care to ensure that the basic bath,shower and toilet are operational every evening following the days work. The surroundings of these items maybe unfinished. But it is un fair to leave a client without the basic utilities

Robert · Answer

I would recommend allowing 7 to 10 working days for a bathroom refurbishment.

Cameron · Answer

It would take anything from 3 to 5 days depending on what actually needs doing. It can be left with a working toilet every day if required.

James · Answer

Hi it can take up to 7 days depending how for you go. I usually leave toilet in and bath in until the change over. Jamie

You can keep your bathroom services going throughout your project. The main change over  would be done in one day you would not be able to use the bathroom for an evening to let silicone dry unless you are having a major remodel which you will be out not out to use services for at least 2 days .

Mark · Answer

I would personally allow 7-10 working days to be done properly

Sam · Answer

Hello,
It can be completed within 7 working days if you gather all the necessary materials before you start.

Keith · Answer

A bathroom of this size can take between seven and ten days depending on what’s involved sinking pipes in walls electrics involved plastering removing old wall tiles

Jimmy · Answer

Without seeing the job, I would say, approximately 1-2 weeks.

Scott · Answer

It varies on whether the plumbing needs to be altered and the tiling involved. It can range from a week to two weeks. Need to see it or the plans to have better idea.

Scott Gregory · Answer

Good afternoon 
When I renovate a bathroom the customer can allways use the bathroom 
I normally leave the toilet in until last so the bathroom can still be in use .
Hope this will help.
