Your bathroom works harder than almost any other room in your home, so it deserves more than a quick refresh. iRemodel Home Renovation Toronto has spent over 20 years helping homeowners across Toronto and the GTA turn dated, awkward bathrooms into spaces that actually function the way they live — from compact condo baths to full spa-style primary ensuites.
Every project is handled by licensed tradespeople, built to Ontario Building Code standards, and backed by a one-year workmanship warranty. You get a single point of contact from first sketch to final walkthrough, so nothing falls through the cracks between designer, plumber, and tile setter.
Why Homeowners Choose iRemodel
Two decades of Toronto-specific experience
Toronto’s older housing stock — from Cabbagetown semis to Forest Hill estates — comes with plumbing, wiring, and structural quirks that generic renovation crews miss. Two decades of local project experience means we spot those issues during planning, not mid-demolition.
Licensed, code-compliant work from start to finish
Every plumbing, electrical, and structural change is completed by licensed tradespeople and inspected against the Ontario Building Code. If your renovation requires a City of Toronto building permit, we manage the application and inspections for you.
Premium materials, built to last
We work exclusively with durable tile, stone, and fixture lines chosen for how they hold up in daily use, not just how they photograph.
A workmanship warranty you can rely on
Every renovation is backed by a one-year workmanship warranty, covering the craftsmanship behind the finish you see.
In-house project management
One team coordinates design, demolition, trades, and finishing — so you’re not chasing down subcontractors or re-explaining your vision to someone new every week.
Bathroom and Shower Renovations
iRemodel works with you to understand the details of everything you want, including the layout, colours, textures, features, lighting and more. Let us help you realize the shower renovation you’ve been dreaming of.
Waterproofing and Code Compliance
Bathrooms fail more often from what happens behind the tile than in front of it. Poor waterproofing and ventilation are among the leading causes of hidden mould, subfloor rot, and drywall damage in older Toronto homes.
That’s why every wet area we build includes:
- A full waterproofing membrane system behind tile and around shower pans
- Properly vented exhaust fans ducted to the exterior, sized to the room
- Moisture-resistant backer board in all shower and tub surrounds
- Plumbing and electrical work completed to current Ontario Building Code requirements
If your renovation involves moving fixtures, altering walls, or upgrading electrical, we handle the City of Toronto permit process on your behalf, including scheduling required inspections.

What Does a Bathroom Renovation Cost in Toronto?
Bathroom renovation costs vary based on size, scope, and finishes. Here’s a general breakdown for the GTA:

Factors that affect your final cost:

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a bathroom renovation take?
Most standard renovations take 2 to 4 weeks. A full remodel involving layout changes, plumbing relocation, or custom cabinetry typically takes 6 to 10 weeks, depending on permit timing and material lead times. We give you a realistic schedule before construction begins, and we stay on the job until it’s finished.
What’s the typical cost of a bathroom renovation in Toronto?
A standard 3-piece bathroom renovation in the GTA runs $15,000 to $30,000. Luxury renovations with layout changes, custom vanities, and premium finishes typically start around $30,000 and can go higher depending on scope. We review pricing in detail during your free consultation so you know what to expect before committing.
Do I need a permit to renovate my bathroom?
You’ll likely need a permit if your renovation involves moving plumbing fixtures, structural changes, or electrical work. Cosmetic updates like new tile, paint, or swapping fixtures in place usually don’t require one. iRemodel manages the entire permit and inspection process for you, so you don’t have to navigate City of Toronto requirements on your own.
Can I customize the layout of my bathroom?
Yes. We offer full layout redesigns, including moving walls, relocating plumbing fixtures, and reworking the space to fit how you actually use it. Layout changes require more planning around plumbing, drainage, and permits, which we handle as part of the design phase.
Do you offer accessible or barrier-free bathroom renovations?
Yes. We design and build accessible bathrooms including walk-in tubs, roll-in showers, grab bars, and lowered vanities, tailored to your specific mobility needs.
How do you prevent water damage and mould behind the tile?
Every wet area we build uses a full waterproofing membrane system, properly vented exhaust fans, and moisture-resistant backer board. These details matter more than the visible finish, since most bathroom water damage starts behind the tile, not in front of it.
Is it worth renovating a small or basement bathroom?
Often, yes. Small and basement bathrooms tend to have the highest impact-to-cost ratio because they’re currently underused space. We specialize in maximizing layout efficiency in tight footprints, including attic, basement, and below-stairs bathrooms.
Should I renovate my bathroom at the same time as my kitchen or basement?
If you’re already planning a larger home update, bundling projects can reduce overall disruption and let trades move between rooms instead of remobilizing for separate jobs. Ask us about combining your bathroom renovation with a kitchen or basement project during your consultation.
