How Long Does a Bathroom Remodel Take

Remodeling a bathroom in Aurora, Naperville, or Chicago increases home value, but timelines depend on the scope of work. Euro Pros Inc., with over three years of experience in the construction industry, has completed remodeling projects in Glen Ellyn, Naperville, and other cities and offers the following step-by-step plan.

Step 1: Determine Scope

Cosmetic remodels (painting, tile replacement) take 3–5 days, full remodels (renovation, plumbing) take 2–3 weeks. Tip: List tasks in advance.

Step 2: Plan Materials

Choose moisture-resistant paint (Sherwin-Williams Mold-Resistant), tile, VersaBond tile adhesive, and Polyblend Plus grout. In Naperville, we applied paint in 2 days. Tip: Use materials meeting ASTM D3359.

Step 3: Prepare the Space

Remove cabinetry and protect floors. Remove old tile and inspect wiring before remodeling, install new GFCIs, CANs if needed. Tip: Ensure ventilation meets ASHRAE 62.2.

Step 4: Execute the Work

Cosmetic remodels involve painting and tiling, while full remodels include plumbing and wiring replacement. In Glen Ellyn, we ran new lines for the exhaust fan, CANs, GFCI outlets, and ventilation.

In Chicago, a full bathroom remodel took 2 weeks.

Tip: Follow NEC standards for outlets (www.nfpa.org).

Step 5: Final Inspection

Visually inspect surfaces and test plumbing, electrical. Tip: Use the IICRC checklist (www.iicrc.org).
