Compare bathroom costs by room size and scope

The Remodeling 2025 Cost vs. Value Report — Charleston, SC provides two distinct reference projects.

Existing 5-by-7-foot bath — about $27,000: the midrange project updates a 35-square-foot room with replacement fixtures, a tub and tile surround, vanity counter, medicine cabinet and ceramic flooring. This involves more work than painting and changing a vanity.

Expansion inside the house — about $83,000: the upscale project expands a 35-square-foot bathroom to 100 square feet within the existing house footprint and relocates fixtures. It includes a separate shower and soaking tub, two sinks, upgraded storage and lighting, ventilation, HVAC extension and heated flooring.

These Charleston figures are regional context, not a separate Daniel Island price survey. These are not two finish levels for the same room, a minimum-to-maximum range or a 2026 Southeastern Renovation quote. A shower-only conversion, accessibility changes, different room size or addition outside the house needs its own measured scope and estimate.
