Condo Bathroom Remodel Ottawa


If you live in a condo in the Ottawa region, you probably know how difficult it is to get a contractor to come and work in a condo. Many contractors including plumbers, electricians and tile setters don’t want to work on condos since it’s a lot more difficult to work in, costs more and requires more time and effort.

We were like that before, until we came across some wonderful people who live in condos across Ottawa, and we learned about their needs, desires and their stories. 

For some, a bathroom renovation is an aesthetic upgrade to their home and an excellent investment. For others, it is a necessity due to age, health conditions or life transition. 

We could no longer say no to condo dwellers, and now we offer condo bathroom renovation as one of our many services.

Ottawa Condo Bathroom Renovation Services


From initial contact to installation to completion, our team of experienced condo bathroom renovators will ensure that the whole project is as stress-free and as smooth as possible. We will advise you in the following areas:

  • Lighting. You need several different types of light to meet all of your bathroom needs. From wall sconces to pot lights, and vanity lights, condo bathroom lighting and specific condo requirements for the type of lights will be taken into consideration. 
  • Fixtures. The fixtures are integral to your bathroom’s overall aesthetic, and for condo bathroom renovations, fixtures must fit into the requirements of the condo including the type of shower and exhaust fan you can have to smaller vanities and space-saving solutions – they are all part of the fixture selection for a successful condo bathroom renovation. 
  • Flooring. Flooring can be very specific in a condo bathroom renovation, from the extreme water-proofing needs and sound requirements of a condo building to non-slip tiles for the bathroom floor and custom shower floors. Our goals are the same as our condo customers – to use a reliable, safe, beautiful and cost-effective choice of tiles that will withstand the test of time.

Cost of Condo Bathroom Renovations

Based on our extensive knowledge and experience with renovating bathrooms, here at iBathrooms we do our best to ensure that prices are affordable, so that it’s not too expensive that you can’t move forward with the renovation and not too cheap that the work won’t be properly done. We understand that those looking for this type of renovation are commonly older couples or individuals that have moved into a condo for a more convenient and comfortable living space. 

Condo bathroom renovations are typically more expensive than standard home bathroom renovations. The average condo bathroom renovation cost is around $25,000 which includes the price of labour, trades, rough materials, and finishings. While we try to keep costs properly priced, we do acknowledge that the cost of your renovation could increase based on the type of bathroom and work required, as every condo bathroom is slightly different and there may be variations in the project that affect the final price.

Condo Renovation Rules and Requirements


With condo renovations in Ottawa, you must first obtain permission from the condo board before a bathroom renovation can begin. This entails submitting a proposal to the board with a plan of the renovation you want to take place in order to ensure that it properly adheres to the condo corporation’s rules and regulations.

It’s important to carefully review the condo’s regulations pertaining to:

How to Prepare for Your Condo Bathroom Renovation


As stated earlier, permission from the condo board must be obtained to renovate a bathroom in a condo. This involves submitting a proposal to make sure that your renovations comply with condo rules and guidelines. The condo board may also require your contractor’s information, including proof of insurance. Depending on the project, permits may be needed. These are often handled by the board itself. Any electrical work will need to follow the condo safety regulations and material delivery will need to be coordinated with the board and suppliers. Elevators and parking will also need to be booked in advance.

While the process might seem difficult, our team at iBathrooms will make it easy for you, taking care of each step along the way. We will provide the necessary documentation, communicate and coordinate with your building management, and handle all logistics and bookings. This will hopefully give you peace of mind that everything you need to renovate is taken care of.

FAQs

When it comes to a condo bathroom design that saves space, strategies include installing a compact shower stall, wall-mounted storage, wall mounted linen cabinets, and pocket doors. A compact shower stall takes up less space than a bathtub and makes the bathroom feel bigger. Wall-mounted storage allows for more floor space while tall, slender linen cabinets make use of vertical space. Having pocket doors means you don’t need to account for the swing of a regular door.

Yes, the layout can be changed for your condo bathroom remodel. However, the condo board will need to approve any changes before you can go ahead, especially if you plan to change the placement of electrical wires or plumbing lines as those are shared within the building and would affect other tenants’ property.

Yes, it is possible to move a toilet within your condo bathroom. Toilets can be moved a few inches on all sides, so that this way the same wastewater connection can be used. While a few inches may not seem like a lot, every little bit counts when it comes to maximizing your space and the functionality of your bathroom.

The time it takes for renovating a condo bathroom in Ottawa varies depending on the scope and complexity of the project, as well as the rules of your condo. The best way to determine the potential duration of the renovation would be to contact a dependable contractor, like us here at iBathrooms, who will give you a time estimate and schedule at the initial consultation.
