Adding a New Bathroom in a Vancouver Home

Adding a bathroom where one doesn’t currently exist is one of the most impactful additions for family homes and secondary suite creation. Costs range from $18,000 for a half bath to $55,000+ for a full ensuite.

New Bathroom Cost by Type

Type Cost Range
Half bath (toilet + small vanity) $12,000–$22,000
3/4 bath (toilet, vanity, shower) $22,000–$45,000
Full bath (tub/shower combo) $28,000–$58,000
Master ensuite (large, premium) $45,000–$90,000

Key Factors Affecting Cost

  • Distance from existing plumbing stack (farther = more costly)
  • Concrete sawcutting (basement, below slab work): +$2,000–$5,000
  • New ventilation duct to exterior: $400–$1,200
  • Structural work if load-bearing walls affected
