2025 Bathroom Remodel Costs in Bullhead City, AZ

Bathroom before: basic tub. After remodel: sleek walk-in shower, new fixtures, and tile work in Bullhead City.

Prices on TV shows rarely match the desert reality—materials travel farther, labor is specialized, and Mohave County permit fees differ from Phoenix. Below you’ll find real‑world numbers from projects we completed in Bullhead City last year, plus insider tips to keep budgets on track.

(All figures assume mid‑range finishes: porcelain tile, quartz tops, mid‑market fixtures. High‑luxury selections can add 25‑40 %.)


Typical Project Scenarios & Price Ranges

Project TypeScopePrice Range (2025)Timeline
Cosmetic RefreshNew vanity top, fixtures, paint, LVP floor$7 K – $12 K4–6 days
Tub‑to‑Shower ConversionRemove tub, build tiled walk‑in shower$12 K – $18 K8–12 days
Mid‑Range Gut RenovationFull demo, new tile floor & walls, vanity, lighting$18 K – $25 K2–3 weeks
High‑End Spa SuiteCustom curbless shower, frameless glass, freestanding tub, heated floor$35 K – $50 K3–4 weeks

Quick reality check: If you see “$5 K full bathroom remodel” ads, read the fine print—they often cover labor only, use 4 × 4 wall tile, and leave plumbing where it sits.


Five Cost Drivers in Mohave County

1. Tile Selection

Large‑format porcelain and mosaic accents cost more per square foot and take longer to set than builder‑grade 12 × 12 ceramic. Expect $3‑$5 / sq ft difference on materials alone.

2. Glass Enclosures

Frameless panels must be custom‑tempered in Las Vegas, adding freight and lead‑time. Budget $1,200–$2,000 for a standard 60″ enclosure.

3. Plumbing Moves

Relocating a drain or mixing valve inside slab homes means saw‑cutting concrete. Figure $800–$1,400 per move for licensed plumbing + patch.

4. Permit & Inspection Fees

Bullhead City Building Dept. fees for a residential bathroom average $175–$225, plus $35 per inspection (rough & final). Always pull permits—unpermitted work can void resale appraisals.

5. Material Lead‑Times

Quartz tops run 2‑3 weeks; specialty fixtures from Delta or Moen’s matte‑black line can stretch to 4+ weeks. Order early to avoid dead time between trades.


Where to Splurge vs. Save

Simple Tile PatternsStraight lay costs less labor than herringbone/diagonals

Financing & Return on Investment

  • ROI: Mid‑range remodels recoup 55–60 % at resale in Mohave County (2024 Zillow data).
  • Financing: Local credit unions offer 4–6 yr signature loans at ~9 %; home‑equity lines hover 6–7 %.
  • Tax Perks: Energy‑efficient low‑flow fixtures may qualify for a small state tax credit—check with your CPA.

Budget Hacks From a Local Contractor

  1. Shop porcelain tile at Tucson or Vegas warehouses and piggy‑back freight with neighbors—split delivery fees.
  2. Order glass after tile is grouted; templating mistakes on curved walls can cost $300+ in remakes.
  3. Bundle flooring with the bath job. Doing LVP in adjoining halls adds pennies per square foot in labor when crews are already on site.
  4. Demo yourself—carefully. If you’re handy, removing old vanity & mirror can shave $300–$500. Leave tile demo to the pros; hidden razor‑wire lathe is no joke.
