Primary bathroom remodel by Lux Builders

Brighton, Michigan · Livingston · Oakland · Washtenaw · W. Wayne

Bathroom remodeling, priced once and fixed before we start.

A bathroom by Lux Builders in the Brighton area runs $30,000 to $100,000+. Size matters less than you would think — what moves the number is what happens behind the walls and under the floor. That is a range, not a quote. The design phase is what turns it into a real number, and once that number is set it does not move.

What the range actually means

Five trades. Forty square feet.

A bathroom is the densest room in the house — plumbing, electrical, tile, carpentry and ventilation all working inside forty square feet, each one depending on the one before it. That is the mechanism behind the number.

What actually moves the number

Whether the drain moves. Even eleven inches. A drain that stays put costs what a drain costs; a drain that moves means the floor comes up, and sometimes the ceiling below comes down.
Curbless shower and the floor build-up it needs. The slope has to drain, so the floor is engineered up or recessed — decided in design, never improvised on site.
Tile scope and grade. Tile at $6 a foot or $60. Floor-to-ceiling or wainscot. Both beautiful; very different numbers.
Heated floor, niche and bench detailing. The comfort details live in the rough stages — they are cheap to plan and expensive to retrofit.
Whether a window or skylight is added. Natural light transforms a bathroom, and it brings framing, flashing and finish work with it.

Why the price can be fixed

Every selection — tile, stone, fixtures, glass, hardware — is chosen and signed before the number is set, and a job scope addendum listing every item is attached to the contract. Nothing left to allowances by the time you sign.

Older homes carry a wider design contingency for what is behind the walls — resolved in design, priced in the contract, not discovered as a change order.

How the price holds

Four stages. One fixed price. Nothing on a verbal.

Change orders exist because decisions get deferred. An allowance is a decision deferred with a placeholder number attached. Move every decision in front of the contract and there is nothing left to change-order.

Design Agreement

Sign-off: design agreement signed

The design fee is 1–3% of projected project cost, and it buys more than drawings. It also buys the homework: non-destructive inspections of what is behind the walls, under the floors and above the ceilings — so your price is built on what your house actually is, not on what anyone hopes it is. A portion credits toward your build agreement if that agreement is signed within 90 days.

Plans & Selections

Sign-off: 100% signed · zero TBDs

Cabinetry, counters, tile, fixtures, hardware, flooring, paint — every one chosen, priced and signed. Estimating does not begin until every selection carries your signature.

One True Price

Sign-off: contract + job scope addendum

One fixed price, with a job scope addendum attached that accounts for every item on the job. Nothing left to allowances by the time you sign. The number is the number.

Build with Confidence

Sign-off: inspections passed

Once the build contract is signed, we develop the final construction plans — the working drawings your job is built and inspected from. Every trade bid at least twice. No subcontractor on site until their release is signed off. A written schedule, and an update on the same day every week.

Answers, before you call

Questions, answered straight.

How much does a bathroom remodel cost in Brighton, Michigan?

A bathroom by Lux Builders runs $30,000 to $100,000+ depending on size, tile and fixture selections, and whether the layout changes. The price is fixed with One True Price before demolition day — nothing left to allowances by the time you sign. That is a range, not a quote.

Why does a small room cost that much?

Five trades work inside forty square feet — plumbing, electrical, tile, carpentry and HVAC ventilation, each depending on the one before it. That is why a small room can cost what a large one does, and why moving a drain eleven inches is a real number rather than a rounding error.

Can you build a curbless shower?

Yes. A curbless shower needs the floor built up or recessed so the slope drains correctly — it is a floor-structure decision, not just a glass decision, which is why it is designed and priced before the contract, never improvised during the build.

How long does a bathroom remodel take?

Design and selections typically run a few weeks; construction depends on scope and is scheduled in writing before we start. Because every selection is signed before pricing, the build is not waiting on decisions.

What warranty comes with the work?

Eighteen months on our workmanship — everything not already covered by a manufacturer's warranty. Mechanical, electrical and plumbing carry a twelve-month warranty and are serviced by the licensed trades that installed them. Manufacturer warranties on fixtures pass through to you.
