How Long Does It Take to Remodel my Bathroom?
It may be difficult and error-prone to estimate the amount of time necessary to renovation a bathroom. Nowhere is estimating more important than in the bathroom, because most families want them up and running immediately. It is very inconvenient to have one bathroom out of commission during remodeling, unless you have numerous bathrooms.

Factors that affect renovation time

The reality is that it is a very rare when a bathroom renovationing project goes exactly as planned, and a variety of factors can wreak havoc with your best efforts at scheduling:

Does the project involve cosmetic remodeling or total reconstruction?
Renovations can take a few days or potentially several months, depending on the issue. Are you doing the work yourself or are you hiring a contractor? More than one good-intentioned homeowner has found that doing all the work yourself, squeezing in work time when you can, leads to a project that can take as much as a year to complete.

Does the contractor who you’re hiring out subcontract electricians, plumbers, and carpenters to him, or is he an owner-operator?
Coordinating with a single owner-operator remodeler can be the cheapest way to go, but they’ll likely be juggling your job with several others as they try to do all the work themselves. This means that a job that requires 10 or 15 actual workdays can take two or three months to see completion.
Are all materials readily available or are they special-order goods that may cause you to wait for delivery? Waiting on imported ceramic tile to arrive, for example, can delay a project by several weeks.

That said, it’s usually easy enough to come up with a ball-park estimate of how long a complete remodel of a small bathroom will take if you are working with a competent general contractor who is working with equally competent subcontractors.

Usually, a small complete bathroom remodel can be done in about 23 days under ideal circumstances. Assuming no work is done on weekends, this translates to about 4 1/2 weeks– slightly more than one month– if the work proceeds uniformly with no breaks. In the real world, where downtime or unexpected circumstances invariably arise, it could be about double that– 46 days, or about 9 weeks.

Prepare yourself for the unexpected

Below is a timetable assuming a good general contractor is working with competent subcontractors, that all workers are on time, that no one gets sick, that materials are readily available, and that you as the homeowner do not issue any change orders that slow down the progress.

More significantly, this is a timetable based on a best-case scenario. As a result, there are no gaps between workdays since all dead days have been removed. It is assumed that the next worker steps in immediately as soon as the previous one is finished. Be prepared for real-life schedules to be about twice as long as you initially thought.
