Bathroom Remodeling in Grand Rapids — Finally Yours
Spa-like environments with luxury fixtures — designed around your life, protected by our process.
Book Your Free Discovery CallYou Deserve More Than a Compromise
You deserve a space that feels like a retreat, not a compromise. Instead, you're dealing with a cramped layout, dated tile, and fixtures that stopped working properly years ago. Every morning starts with a reminder of what your bathroom isn't.
And the thought of remodeling? That brings its own fears. Budget overruns that spiral out of control. A contractor who cuts corners on waterproofing — the one thing you can't afford to get wrong. Weeks of chaos with no clear timeline. Decision overwhelm from the sheer volume of tile, fixture, and layout choices.
Thornapple exists to guard you from all of it. Our process starts with a 2-3 hour in-home consultation where we measure your space, build 3D models in real time, and give you an honest budget range — before you commit to anything. Every decision is guided, every cost is locked, and every detail is protected.
What a Bathroom Remodel Actually Costs in West Michigan
Pricing depends on scope, square footage, and finish level — not on a list price. Here's an honest look at where most Grand Rapids bathroom projects land in 2026, so you can plan with real numbers instead of guesses. Final pricing is locked into a fixed-price contract after design.
$15,000 – $25,000
A focused update for a guest or hall bath: new vanity and countertop, fresh tile, modern fixtures, lighting, paint, and flooring within the existing footprint. Plumbing stays where it is. The right fit when the layout works but the finishes feel decades behind your home.
$30,000 – $40,000
A full remodel inside the existing walls: new tile shower with frameless glass, custom or semi-custom vanity, quartz tops, upgraded plumbing and electrical, designer lighting, and quality finishes throughout. Layout tweaks and minor plumbing relocations included.
$40,000 – $50,000+
A spa-quality primary bath with curbless tile shower, freestanding soaking tub, double vanity, heated floors, premium fixtures, custom tile work, and millwork-level finishes. Includes meaningful plumbing relocations and the kind of details you notice every morning.
$60,000+
Primary bath taken down to the studs and reimagined — wall removals, expanded footprint into adjacent space, custom steam shower, designer stone, integrated closet redesign, and full systems upgrade. Right when you want the room to feel like a private wing of the house.
These ranges reflect typical Grand Rapids, East Grand Rapids, Ada, Forest Hills, and Rockford projects. Where your remodel lands depends on tile selection, fixture grade, and how much existing plumbing and electrical can stay. We walk through all of it on your discovery call.

A Bathroom Designed for the Next Thirty Years
For many of our clients in Forest Hills, Ada, East Grand Rapids, and Rockford, this is the home they intend to grow old in. The neighborhood, the light through the windows, the proximity to family — none of that needs to change. The bathroom does. And the goal isn't a clinical, institutional space. It's a beautiful primary bath that quietly makes life easier as the years go on.
We design for that future intentionally. A zero-threshold tile shower that reads as luxury today and becomes essential tomorrow. Comfort-height fixtures and wider doorways that disappear into the architecture. Reinforced walls so grab bars can be added later without tearing into tile. Layered lighting that protects against falls without ever feeling fluorescent. Slip-resistant tile that still feels like stone underfoot.
Done right, you won't see the planning. You'll see a bathroom that simply feels good — at fifty, at seventy, at every stage in between. That's the point. Stay in the home you love, and let it take care of you.
Plan Your Bathroom Remodel
Answers Before You Even Have to Ask
Thornapple bathroom remodel pricing depends on scope — fixtures, tile work, plumbing, accessibility features, and shower or tub configuration all factor in. We provide a fixed-price contract after scope finalization — the price we quote is the price you pay. No allowance games, no surprise change orders.
A typical bathroom remodel takes 4 to 8 weeks from demolition to final walkthrough. Timeline depends on the scope of work, material lead times, and whether plumbing needs to be relocated. We map out every milestone before work begins and give you 24/7 access to your project schedule through our project portal — so you always know what's happening and when.
Yes. Master bathrooms are typically larger with more complex plumbing, double vanities, and higher-end finishes — so they land on the upper end of the range. Guest bath remodels with simpler layouts and standard fixtures come in lower. We'll give you an honest range during your consultation based on your specific space and priorities.
Absolutely. We design bathrooms with grab bars, curbless showers, comfort-height toilets, wider doorways, and non-slip flooring. Whether you're planning ahead or addressing a current need, we'll ensure your bathroom is safe and comfortable without sacrificing aesthetics. Accessibility features can be integrated seamlessly into any design style.
We work with ceramic, porcelain, natural stone, glass mosaic, and large-format tiles. During your consultation, we help you navigate the options so you choose materials that match your style, maintenance preferences, and budget — without the decision overwhelm. If you're stuck between options, our 3D models let you see exactly how each choice looks in your space.
Yes. If you have other bathrooms in your home, you can absolutely use them during the remodel. We install plastic dust barriers to contain the work zone and bring portable restrooms so our crew never uses your bathroom. Your daily routine stays as close to normal as possible.
