How Long Does It Take to Remodel a Bathroom?
At AZ Neighbor, one of the first questions our clients ask us during bathroom renovation projects is, ‘How long does it take to remodel a bathroom?‘ However, there is no one standard answer to this question. In this blog post, we will discuss factors that affect the length of a bathroom remodel and provide tips on how to save time during your remodel.
Factors That Influence the Length of Bathroom Remodel
Many homeowners are unsure if they need a bathroom remodel or renovation. Understanding the difference between the two will help you determine the scope of your project and the time it takes to complete.
The length of time it takes to complete a bathroom remodel varies from one project to another. There are many factors that influence the time it will take from the start of day one of the demo process to the last day when we are putting the finishing touches in your new bathroom in place.
In the world of home improvement, it is more the rule than the exception for there to be unplanned circumstances getting in the way of a project deadline: delays in delivering special-order goods or materials are out of stock, workers get sick and structural problems routinely crop up unexpectedly.
Based on our previous bathroom remodeling projects, we have identified the following common factors that determine how much time your bathroom remodel will take:
- Go the DIY route or hire a bathroom remodel contractor?
The best way to avoid the DIY delays is to hire a general contractor who is very experienced in bathroom remodels. A professional contractor will be very accustomed to dealing with such issues. In taking on the job yourself, you will have to decide the amount of time available you have to squeeze in a few hours after work or on the weekend to work on your bathroom. And inevitably, you will always more trips to the hardware store than you planned.
- Bathroom dimensions
It is only logical that a smaller-sized bathroom remodel will have a faster turnaround time. A bathroom with bigger dimensions means larger areas to tile or paint.
- Time of year
While bathroom remodels are carried out on the inside of a home, the season in which the work is done can influence the duration of the project. Also, starting out a model in or around holidays like Christmas or New Year can also impact how long a bathroom remodel can take.
- Number of workers used
It goes without saying that the more hands available to work on a project, the quicker the work gets done. But this can work to the contrary too particularly in regards to small work spaces. A small bathroom that cannot accommodate too many workers in it at any one time may only allow for two or three workers, which means the project duration will probably stretch out.
Tips to Save Time on a Bathroom Remodel
While some factors that can delay the time it takes to remodel a bathroom remain out of your control, there are some steps to take that can minimize delays. The following tips are useful in speeding up a bathroom remodel:
- Ensure payments are made on time so suppliers can be paid.
- Contractors often require you to approve certain decisions, so it helps keep things moving when you are readily available to take calls or reply to messages or emails.
- Be 100 percent sure of the new bathroom design before work begins. Any changes you make once work has begun will delay the completion date.
