Remodeling Ireland's bathrooms: from pre-1981 homes to 2000s estates

  • 42%of Irish homes were built before 1981 (CSO Census 2022)
  • 33%were built in 2001 or later, now 15 to 25 years old
  • 37%of homes have 4 or more bedrooms (main bathroom + en-suite)
  • 69%of permanent housing units are owner-occupied

Across Ireland's 26 counties, bathroom jobs split into two clear groups. In 2000s estates in Meath, Kildare, Cork, Galway and Dublin's commuter belt, original builder-grade shower trays, grout and electric showers are 15 to 25 years old and ready for a clean like-for-like refit or walk-in shower conversion.

In pre-1981 houses in Dublin City, Cork City, Limerick, Waterford and rural towns, stripping the old tiles often means replacing old pipework, levelling suspended timber floors and tanking the wet zone properly. Doing a main bathroom and an en-suite together comes to about €11,800 to €24,000, sharing one skip and one fitting team.

Questions people ask us

How much does bathroom remodeling cost in Ireland?

A full renovation of a family bathroom of 4 to 5 m², layout kept, is €8,800 to €16,500. A refresh with a new suite and tiles is €4,000 to €8,800, and an en-suite is €3,000 to €7,500. Moving the toilet or shower adds €1,200 to €2,500. The cost guide has every line.

How much is a bath-to-walk-in-shower conversion?

When the full room is stripped, tanked, tiled and refitted with a walk-in shower in place of the bath, it costs €9,000 to €16,000. A tray-and-screen swap in the wet zone only starts lower after a site inspection.

How long will I be without a bathroom?

7 to 12 working days for a standard bathroom or walk-in shower conversion, longer for a wet room. See how long it takes.

Is there a County Council grant for a walk-in shower or accessible bathroom?

Yes. Local authorities across all 26 counties pay the Housing Adaptation Grant (up to €40,000) and the Mobility Aids Grant (up to €8,000) for older people and people with a disability. Work must not start before the council approves your application.

How much mess is there?

The room is stripped to the walls, so there's dust and a skip outside for a few days. A good company sheets the stairs and landing, cuts tiles outside where it can and tidies up every evening.

Is the work guaranteed?

Ask for it in writing: a guarantee on the workmanship, the makers' guarantees on the shower, the valve and the suite, and the guarantee on the tanking. The electrician gives you a Safe Electric completion certificate.

Who comes out to price it?

One vetted bathroom remodeling company covering your county. They see the room, check the floor, the hot water and the waste, then price it in writing.
