The homeowner’s guide

Where bathroom money actually goes

Labour and waterproofing, not the pretty stuff. A full gut runs roughly a third demolition-plumbing-electrical, a third tile and waterproofing, a third fixtures and finishes. The invisible layer decides whether the room lasts: a proper shower is membraned (Schluter or equivalent) behind the tile, sloped to drain, and vented so moisture leaves the room. Tile over bare drywall in a wet zone is how you buy the same bathroom twice.

Keep the layout, keep thousands

Moving a toilet means moving a 3-inch drain stack; moving a shower means rerouting supply and drain through joists. Every metre of relocation is real money and permit territory. If the current layout works, a full refresh in the same footprint (new tub or shower, tile, vanity, floor) delivers 90% of the wow for a lot less. Save layout changes for when the room genuinely doesn't function.

The moisture math of a Toronto bathroom

A family of four puts litres of water vapour into that little room daily. Without a properly sized fan vented outside (not into the attic, we keep finding this), that vapour condenses in walls and windows, and you get peeling paint, black grout lines, and eventually mould remediation. The fan should run during and 20 minutes after showers; a humidity-sensing switch is a cheap upgrade that removes the human error.

Two to three weeks, if it's planned right

A properly run bathroom goes: demo (days 1–2), rough plumbing and electrical plus inspection (3–5), board and waterproofing (6–8), tile (9–12), fixtures, glass, and paint (13–18). The killer of every timeline is materials arriving late, so a good contractor won't start demo until your tile, tub, and vanity are physically in the garage. If someone offers to start tomorrow with nothing ordered, that's a red flag with a paintbrush.

Your once-a-season walk-around

Caulk at tub/shower corners is intact and mould-free Grout lines aren't darkening near wet zones Fan actually moves air (toilet-paper test against the grille) Fan vents outside, not into the attic No soft spots in the floor around the toilet Water pressure steady when someone flushes elsewhere No staining on the ceiling below the bathroom

Tick what checks out. Anything you can’t tick is worth a closer look.

Things people get told (that aren’t quite true)

“Big-box vanities and quotes mean big savings”

The materials are maybe 40% of a bathroom. Saving 15% on a vanity while the waterproofing gets skipped is a terrible trade. Spend where the water is.

“Grout sealing makes showers waterproof”

Grout and tile are decorative armour. The waterproofing is the membrane behind them. Sealed grout on an unmembraned wall still lets vapour through to the drywall.

“A bathroom reno always needs permits”

Like-for-like swaps usually don't. Moving plumbing, adding a bathroom, or touching structure does. Your contractor should tell you which side you're on before demo, in writing.
