A stunning bathroom can quickly become frustrating if there isn't enough room to comfortably open a vanity drawer, access the toilet, or move around the space. That's why professional designers and contractors rely on standards established by the National Kitchen & Bath Association (NKBA) when designing functional bathrooms.
Most homeowners walk into a bathroom remodel thinking the big-cost decisions are tile selection, vanity tier, and what the shower glass looks like. Those decisions matter.
A bathroom renovation in Columbus can cost $6,000. Or it can cost $75,000. Both numbers describe real projects finished in central Ohio this year. The range isn't about contractors charging different rates — it's about scope, materials, layout, and what's behind the walls when demolition starts.
