A shabby, damp and old-fashioned bathroom does not make you want to spend time there at all. But today, the bathroom must invite well-being, relaxation, it is no longer a room dedicated solely to hygiene. It must be bright, clean and welcoming.

If you want a thermostatic mixer, that is to say a faucet that keeps the water at the same temperature during your shower, it can go up to 1,000€. For a walk-in shower, with installation of a tray, wall, wall tiles and taps, count between 500 and 900€ with a large DIY area and if you call on professionals, plan between 2,000 to 4 000€.
You like relaxing baths and prefer the bathtub. Be aware that there are different types of bathtubs:freestanding, from €500 to €4,500 with a professional. A corner bathtub, from 500 to 4,000€ also and for a classic bathtub, the cost varies from 400 to 700€. These prices include supply and installation.
To redo the floor, you have to remove the tiles for 20 to 40 € per m². For the contour of the bathtub and the shower, it is necessary to count around 40 to 90€ per m². Tiling ranges from €20 for classic tiles to €150 per m² for cement tiles.
