Filed under Bathroom Remodeling FAQ
we are going to be remodeling our bathroom this summer, cause it really needs it. We need a new floor, cause the bathtub is being held up by a couple two by fours i guess. And we need a new toilette, a new sink, and a new bathtub. And we are then going to put in new cheap lenolium (sp?) and we need an air vent in the roof.
So my question is, what do u think all this will cost? so i know how much i need to be saving.
and i will be buying mostly the cheapest i can find, but the best cheapest. if that helps
and the bathroom is small, really small
and we live in a trailer.
Please help

Hotty, remodeling a bathroom in a Mobile home will not cost that much. A new toilet a Home Depot around $110 a vanity with a cultured top with the sink molded into it also at Home Depot around $200. Plywood for the new floor depending on what grade of 3/4 inch can run from $25 to $40 a sheet 4ftX8ft. New floor joists depending how old your trailer is will be 2×6 and 10ft long cost less than $7 each. Now where you will have a problem is most trailers do not have a standard size tub in them, there smaller. If i remember correctly there 56 inch not 60 inch. I owned 4 Mobile homes as rentals and had to get a tub from a trailer salvage company for one bathroom. On another i just converted the tub area into a walk in shower by putting in a shower pan and dura rock on the walls made the curb and mud packed the bottom then tiled it all. I used same drain pipe it just was not in center of the shower and of course changed the faucet from tub to shower. If your doing the work yourself look at spending less than $2000.
I hope this gives you some ideas on cost and options when it comes to the tub area and if you have any questions please feel free to contact me.

Habitat for Humanity has retail stores in most bigger cities. They sell donated building materials and fixtures. the one here is called the ReStore. You might also check the yellow pages for used plumbing fixtures. Good luck.

remodeling a bathroom could be very expensive no matter what but for what you are saying it sounds that you should plan for a budget of about 5 to 1o thousand dollars and remember that their will always be surprises that you will not expect but will have to deal with as you go along. Good luck with your remodeling project.

check bulletin boards, classifieds for left overs from builders building new homes, or people selling personal stuff, go to home improvement websites like lowes.com they also have books very good books to look at for ideas and how to do it. Lowes, Home Depot, Direct Buy warehouses
