Townhouse renovation in Brooklyn: We redesigned the rear end of the house as an expanded family kitchen with a back door to the deck. We also added a new connection from the entrance hall to the kitchen and fit a small powder room under the stairs. The old windows and doors were replaced with new, larger ones, and the entire kitchen was gutted and refitted with new cabinetry and a banquette dining area. The space was designed to take advantage of the bright southern exposure, with lots of white materials, grounded by the dark base cabinets. Photos by Maletz Design

A 5x10 bathroom is one of the most common bathroom sizes, offering enough space for a full bath setup while maintaining efficiency. Whether you’re planning a simple refresh or a complete renovation, understanding the cost breakdown is essential to staying within budget. Average Cost of a 5x10 Bathroom Remodel The cost of remodeling a 5x10 bathroom can range between $6,000 and $25,000, depending on the level of renovation, materials, and labor costs in your area. Here’s a quick breakdown of what you can expect: • Basic Remodel ($6,000 - $10,000) – Cosmetic updates such as painting, new fixtures, and budget-friendly materials. • Mid-Range Remodel ($10,000 - $18,000) – Upgrading vanities, flooring, and fixtures with higher-quality materials. • Luxury Remodel ($18,000 - $25,000+) – Premium materials, custom cabinetry, high-end tile work, and luxury fixtures. Cost Breakdown by Component Remodel Component Estimated Cost Range Demolition $500 - $1,500 Plumbing & Fixtures $1,500 - $5,000 Flooring $800 - $3,000 Shower/Tub Installation $2,000 - $7,000 Vanity & Countertops $1,500 - $5,000 Lighting & Electrical $500 - $2,000 Painting & Finishing $300 - $1,500 Permits & Labor $2,000 - $6,000 Factors That Affect the Cost 1.
