Smart material choices like porcelain tile help cut bathroom remodel costs in Jacksonville.

After 6+ years of remodeling bathrooms in Jacksonville, here’s what we tell every client who wants to stretch their budget:

  • Keep the existing layout β€” moving plumbing adds $1,500–$5,000.
  • Refinish instead of replace your tub β€” reglazing costs $400–$600 vs $1,500+ for a new tub.
  • Choose porcelain tile over natural stone β€” mimics marble at 1/3 the cost.
  • Mix high-end and mid-range materials β€” splurge on shower tile, save on the floor.
  • Use stock cabinetry β€” custom vanities cost 2–4x more.
  • Skip the freestanding tub if you won’t use it.
  • Choose LVP instead of tile flooring β€” LVP installation is 30–40% cheaper than tile.
  • Reuse what works β€” keep a recent toilet or good mirror.
  • Time your project for off-peak season β€” January and February are slower months.
  • Hire a contractor who handles everything β€” one full-service team beats multiple subcontractor markups.

That’s why Nunes 4 Flooring is Schluter Certified β€” the gold standard for shower waterproofing.

A Schluter system adds $900 to $1,800 to a typical bathroom budget, but it:
