Why Tile Increases the Price
Tile—especially in showers—adds significant time, labor, and materials cost:
- It requires proper waterproofing systems (like Schluter®, Wedi®, or Hydro Ban®)
- Each tile must be cut, laid, and grouted by hand
- Glass panels or doors (often used with tile showers) are more expensive than standard curtains or fiberglass walls
That’s why tile is typically reserved for mid-range or high-end remodels, and
excluded from budget-friendly bath updates.
Other Factors That Affect Cost
- Age and condition of your home
- Plumbing or electrical upgrades
- Accessibility features (grab bars, walk-in showers)
- Permits and code requirements
- Material availability and customization
Is a Remodel Worth It?
Yes—for both resale value and day-to-day enjoyment. A quality bathroom remodel in the Harrisburg area typically recoups 60–70% of its value, depending on the level of investment and the neighborhood.
