Question 1 of 11
What are we doing to the bathroom?

Pick the one closest to your plan. You can change it later.

What's there now?
What do you want in there?
Does this change the price?

Keeping what you have (a tub stays a tub, a shower stays a shower) keeps the plumbing where it is. Switching a tub to a shower, or the other way, moves the drain and the valve. Your quote covers everything except moving the plumbing; Martin prices that part in person.

How big is the room?
How to measure

Measure the floor wall to wall, in feet, the long way and the short way. Round to the nearest half foot. A standard hall bathroom is about 5 by 8 (40 sq ft).

No tape measure handy? Use what's in the room: a standard tub is 5 ft long, a door is about 2.5 ft wide, and a toilet sticks out about 2.5 ft from the wall. A 12 in. floor tile is 1 ft; count them.

How big a shower?
How to tell

Measure the shower floor inside the walls. 30 × 60 is the size of a standard tub, so a shower that size fits where a tub was. If the new shower will be bigger than the one you have, tick the box: the drain and the valve move. Your quote covers everything except moving the plumbing; Martin prices that part in person.

Shower floor and door

The shower floor

What's the difference?

A base is one molded piece (acrylic or fiberglass). Quick, cheaper, easy to clean. A tiled floor is built on a sloped, waterproofed pan with tile on top, so it matches the walls. It takes longer and costs more.

Curtain or glass?

Which tile look do you like?

Just the look for now. You pick the exact tile later, from any store, and the price moves by the difference.

How wide a vanity (sink cabinet)?
How to measure

Measure the width of the cabinet across the front, or the wall space it can use. A 60 in. vanity has two sinks. You pick the exact vanity yourself (or ask us for ideas); this only sets the size.

Will the toilet, sink or shower drain move to a new spot?

New ones in the same spots don't count.

How to tell

Swapping in a new toilet, sink or faucet where the old one was is not a move. If the toilet, the sink or the drain goes even a foot from where it is now, pick "Yes, something moves". Your quote covers everything except moving the plumbing; Martin has to see that part in person to price it.

Last one: tap anything that applies.

Optional. Martin checks your answers against the real room before the bid is final, so anything unusual helps: a window in the shower, a leak you've seen, a soft spot in the floor, tight stairs or a narrow door.

What's your budget for the whole bathroom?
Why we ask

You pick your own tile, vanity and toilet, and we buy and install them. Your budget tells us how much of each fits: for example, tile up to $7.50 a square foot and a vanity up to $1,200. You can always go over or under; the price moves by exactly the difference.

Last step: see your bid

Your bid is ready. Add your name and mobile number, type in the 6-digit code we text you, and the bid shows right here on this page. Martin gets the same details.

We text a 6-digit code to this number so we know it's really you. After that, our AI assistant texts you from Martin's business line, and Martin sends your price. No call center.

By giving your phone number you agree that Narska Home Services may call or text you about your bathroom, including follow-ups, and that an AI assistant may send some of those texts. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out. See our privacy policy.

Your bid

No obligation, and nobody from a call center rings you back. We use your answers only to price your bathroom and get back to you. See our privacy policy.

How the bid is built

  • Real materials at today's store prices: tile, backer board, waterproofing, thinset, grout, the base or pan, the valve trim and shower head. The vanity and toilet are yours to pick and buy; installing them is in
  • Tear-out and waste removal ($250 to $650, by the size of the job)
  • The town permit ($200) when the job needs one
  • Floor protection and dust walls, and cleanup at the end of every work day
  • A final walk-through with you, caulking and touch-ups
  • Labor priced task by task, below what most contractors around here charge, done by Martin's own crew
  • No padding for hidden repairs: if the crew finds damage behind the walls, you get a written change order with the price before that work starts
  • A 10-year limited leak-free shower warranty and at least 1 year on other workmanship. Read the written terms before you sign.
  • Moving plumbing or new wiring is called out, never hidden: Martin prices that part in person

What Moves the Price

Six things decide most of a bathroom bid. The questions above ask about each one, so the range you see is built from the same things Martin prices from.

  • 1. Walls up, or down to the studsThe biggest swing. A gut adds demo, new backer board and waterproofing everywhere, and usually a few plumbing fixes while the walls are open.
  • 2. Crew daysNarska prices labor by the crew-day. A hall bath with the walls up is about a week; a gut with a tiled shower is closer to two.
  • 3. How much tileSquare feet of wall and floor. Tile to the ceiling, a tiled shower floor, a niche and trim edges each add to it. The tile itself is yours to pick; its cost is in your written price.
  • 4. Does anything move?Fixtures in the same spots: cheap. A toilet or drain moving two feet means the floor gets opened up; Martin prices moving the plumbing in person.
  • 5. Tub, base, or tiled showerA tub or a one-piece base is the least work. A tiled pan with a curb adds a day or two and waterproofing; curbless adds more. Frameless glass is its own line.
  • 6. What's behind the wallRot by the toilet or tub, old pipe, no vent. Nobody can see it from the room, which is why the bid is a range and the written price comes after Martin sees your answers and pictures.

Materials, tile, vanity, toilet, are at store prices plus 10% for pickups, returns and breakage, plus waste and sales tax, and you pick them. The price moves by exactly the difference.

Good to Know

Is the instant bid the final price?

It's an estimate built from your answers and today's material prices, good for 30 days. Martin prices it from your answers and pictures and puts the price in writing. Want him to come out? That look is free. If the room matches your answers, the number holds.

Do I buy the tile, vanity and toilet?

You pick them, wherever you like: Home Depot, Lowe's, Floor & Decor, online. Narska orders and pays for them, and they're part of the materials your deposit covers. If you'd rather buy something yourself, tell Martin; that can be worked out job by job.

Is moving the plumbing in the number?

No. Your quote covers everything else. Moving a drain, a valve or a supply line depends on what's behind your walls, so Martin looks at it in person and prices that part before anything is signed. Turning a tub into a shower moves the drain and valve; that plumbing is priced separately, before you sign. In Putnam County, Beacon and Poughkeepsie, a licensed plumber does all plumbing, including fixture hookups, priced separately. Swapping fixtures in the same spot is in the number. New wiring or a new fan needs a licensed electrician; that is priced separately too.

What if you find damage behind the walls?

Sometimes the old tile comes off and there's a soft subfloor around the toilet, a rotted stud or an old pipe. That isn't in the bid, because nobody can see it yet. Martin shows you what the crew found and gives you a written change order with the price before any of that work starts. Nothing extra happens without your OK.

Do I need a permit?

Swapping fixtures and tile in the same spots usually doesn't. Moving plumbing, new wiring or a new fan vent usually does. We check with your town before we start and file what's needed. A permit is $200; when your answers point to one, it's already in the bid.
