Bathroom Remodeling
A bathroom remodel updates the shower or tub, vanity, tile, fixtures, lighting and ventilation, and it can move plumbing to change the layout. MG Builders, based in Edison, NJ, remodels bathrooms for New Jersey homeowners, starting with a free in-home review and a written proposal.

How does a bathroom remodel start?
Every bathroom remodeling project begins with an on-site review. MG Builders then prepares a written proposal that identifies the planned work, materials or allowances, exclusions, expected schedule, permit responsibilities, and payment terms.
Review plumbing locations, ventilation, wet-area construction, fixture clearances, storage, accessibility goals, and finish selections.
What can a bathroom remodel include?
Most projects combine several of the items below, and the written proposal lists exactly which ones are in your scope.
Bathroom layout, shower, tub, vanity, and storage updates
Tile, fixtures, ventilation, lighting, and finish selections
Plumbing and electrical scope coordination
Accessibility goals, wet-area details, paint, and trim
Bathroom refresh, full remodel or layout change: which do you need?
A refresh swaps fixtures and finishes in place, a full remodel takes the room down to the studs, and a layout change moves the shower, toilet or vanity. Moving plumbing is what usually turns a simple update into a larger project.
| Project type | What changes | Permits | What drives the cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fixture and finish refresh | Same layout; new vanity, toilet, faucets, mirror, lighting and paint | Depends on the town and the plumbing work involved | Fixture and finish choices |
| Full remodel, same layout | Walls and floor opened up; new waterproofing, tile shower or tub, vanity, lighting and exhaust fan | Usually required for the plumbing and electrical work | Tile area, shower type (glass, niches, bench) and the waterproofing system |
| Layout change | Toilet, shower, tub or vanity move; tub-to-shower conversions | Required | Moving drains and supply lines, and any floor framing changes |
