Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a bathroom renovation cost in Toronto & the GTA?
Most GTA bathroom renovations run $150-300/sq ft, with total project costs typically landing between $20K-$30K depending on size and finishes.
How long does a bathroom renovation take?
A full bathroom renovation typically takes 2–4 weeks, longer if plumbing is being relocated.
Why does proper waterproofing matter in a bathroom renovation?
Bathrooms are one of the few rooms exposed to constant moisture — proper waterproofing systems (like Schluter/Kerdi-board) prevent costly water damage down the line. This is standard practice on every Hillcrest bathroom project.

Yes — bathroom renovations typically return 60–70% of cost in added home value.
Why choose a contractor with 35+ years of experience?
Hillcrest Construction has been renovating homes and commercial spaces across Toronto & the GTA since 1989 — over three decades with the same family-owned team, from small bathroom updates to full commercial buildouts.
Waterproofing and Plumbing, Sequenced So Nothing Gets Redone
A bathroom fails when the trades get out of order — tile goes down before the waterproofing cures, or a fixture shows up before rough-in is signed off. We build the schedule around water first: plumbing rough-in, waterproofing membrane, inspection, then tile. That order is what keeps a bathroom reno from turning into a leak two years later.

A Schedule Built Around Your Only Working Bathroom
Most bathroom jobs mean your household is down a bathroom for the duration, so timing matters more here than on almost any other room. We lock the sequence before demo starts, not after.
-
Waterproofing signed off before a single tile is set
-
Fixture and vanity lead times tracked before demo, not during
-
Plumbing and electrical rough-in scheduled around inspection windows
-
A clear day-by-day plan so you know how long you're without the room
One Team, Fully Aligned
A bathroom crosses more trades per square foot than any other room — plumber, tiler, electrician, sometimes a glass installer for the shower — all working in a space too small for two people. We run all of it through one project lead, so those trades are coordinated by us, not by you standing in the hallway relaying messages.

Transparency Through Technology
You don't need to walk into a torn-out bathroom to know where things stand. Our project portal keeps you current without the site visit.
-
Track the plumbing, tile, and fixture schedule in real time
-
See itemized costs as they're incurred, not just at the end
-
Message your project lead directly from the portal
-
Photo updates from inside the walls before they're closed up
No guessing what's behind the tile — you'll have seen it before it's covered.
What Makes Us Different
A small footprint doesn't mean a small margin for error — a bathroom reno has less room to absorb a scheduling mistake than almost any other job we run.
Dedicated Office Team
Four full-time office staff track every open bathroom job, so a fixture delay or inspection question gets answered same-day instead of stalling your only bathroom for another week.
Fast and Quick Communication
Bathroom decisions — tile pattern, fixture swap, a change once the wall's already open — pile up fast in a small space. We turn them around quickly so the schedule doesn't sit idle waiting on an answer.
Full-Time Site Superintendent
A superintendent is on site checking the work daily — waterproofing, grout lines, fixture install — because in a bathroom, the mistakes that get expensive are the ones covered up before anyone looks twice.
Connected From Office to Site
The site super and the office check in daily, so a decision made on-site about tile or plumbing never surprises the office, and nothing gets promised to you that the site can't actually deliver.
Built on Trust. Delivered with Care.
Losing a bathroom for weeks is disruptive no matter how it's managed, so we manage it by making your renovation predictable — clear sequencing, honest timelines, and a finished bathroom built to hold up, not just to look good on day one.
