Quick answer

For a full existing-bath remodel in Boston, use the published Massachusetts state adjustment to plan for $7,932 to $23,267, with a planning midpoint of $13,220. This is a state-derived planning range, not a city-specific bid, and it excludes demolition and disposal.

Boston planning context

Boston's official 2024 profile reports that 60.1% of the city's occupied housing units were renter-occupied, based on 2022 American Community Survey data. That housing mix makes a clearly defined bathroom-remodel scope especially useful: the planning process should distinguish essential functional changes from optional upgrades and document the intended outcome before work begins. A precise scope helps keep decisions aligned with the specific home, household needs, and long-term residential plans.
