Bathroom Renovation in toronto

Bathroom renovation covers everything from a straightforward refresh (new vanity, tub, tile, and fixtures) to a full gut job that moves plumbing, adds a shower where a tub used to be, or reworks a small ensuite into something usable. In Toronto that work almost always involves an older house or condo with quirks: cast iron stacks, uneven subfloors, low ceiling heights in basements, and building management rules for condo shut-offs and elevator bookings. A contractor doing this well handles permits where required (moving plumbing or electrical usually triggers one), coordinates trades (plumber, electrician, tiler, waterproofing), and manages the sequence so you're not stuck without a working bathroom for weeks longer than planned.

We list 29 companies in this category. When comparing them, look past the photos on their website and check how they handle waterproofing behind tile (a common source of callbacks), whether they pull permits themselves or leave it to you, how firm their quotes are once demolition reveals what's actually behind the walls, and whether they carry insurance and WSIB coverage. Our scoring weighs verified reviews, licensing and insurance status, responsiveness, and consistency of work across projects rather than just star counts.
