How to Remodel a Bathroom: A Step-by-Step Guide by TNA Renovations

Bathroom remodeling is one of the most popular and high-impact home improvement projects for homeowners today. Whether you’re upgrading an outdated style, improving functionality, or increasing your home’s resale value, a well-planned bathroom renovation can transform your living experience.

At TNA Renovations, we specialize in creating modern, luxurious, and functional bathrooms tailored to your lifestyle. In this guide, we walk you through the complete process of remodeling a bathroom—and how we rise above our competitors in quality, service, and execution.

Step 1: Define Your Vision and Budget

Start by asking yourself:

  • What do I want to achieve with this remodel?
  • What features are essential?
  • What is my budget range?

A basic cosmetic upgrade might cost $8,000–$12,000, while a full remodel with structural or plumbing updates can reach $20,000 or more. At TNA Renovations, we work closely with clients to develop a realistic budget without sacrificing design or quality.

Why TNA Over Others? Many competitors push pre-made packages or hidden upgrades. We provide honest pricing and custom solutions from the start.

Step 2: Assess the Current Bathroom Layout

Evaluate how your current space works for you. Are there storage issues? Poor lighting? A cramped shower? Make a list of things that bother you.

At TNA Renovations, our design consultations go beyond aesthetics. We analyze usability, flow, and how to improve the space practically—not just visually.

Step 3: Choose a Design Style

Whether you love the sleek look of modern design, the charm of farmhouse touches, or the timeless feel of a traditional bathroom, choose a style that complements your home.

Pro Tip: TNA Renovations offers a visual design walkthrough, unlike many competitors who rely solely on mood boards.

Step 4: Select Fixtures and Materials

Here’s what you’ll be choosing:

  • Vanities and countertops
  • Toilets, sinks, and tubs
  • Flooring (tile, vinyl, heated flooring)
  • Lighting and mirrors
  • Storage solutions

TNA Renovations partners with premium suppliers, ensuring high-quality materials that are stylish, durable, and within budget.

What Sets Us Apart: We don’t cut corners with cheap materials to boost margins. Every fixture and tile we suggest is carefully vetted for performance and longevity.

Step 5: Demolition and Prep Work

Before new elements come in, the old must come out. This step involves removing fixtures, flooring, tile, and occasionally drywall.

TNA Renovations performs clean and efficient demolition, minimizing disruption and debris. Our competitors often sub-contract this step, which can lead to inconsistent results.

Step 6: Plumbing and Electrical Updates

Any changes to layout may require plumbing rerouting or new electrical setups. Safety and code compliance are crucial here.

TNA employs licensed electricians and plumbers on every project. While some companies cut costs with handymen, we ensure every job meets Ontario building code standards.

Step 7: Install New Features

With the space prepped and systems updated, it’s time to install:

  • New vanities and countertops
  • Tubs or showers
  • Flooring and tile work
  • Light fixtures and mirrors
  • Custom cabinetry or shelving

This is where the bathroom begins to come together—and our expert installers make sure every edge, corner, and grout line is flawless.

Step 8: Finishing Touches and Inspection

Once the major work is done, it’s time for the final touches:

  • Paint touch-ups
  • Caulking
  • Sealing grout
  • Final clean-up

We then walk through the bathroom with you, reviewing the finished space and ensuring every detail exceeds expectations.
