This page covers the full master suite as one coordinated project — floor, walls, a shower, a tub or tub surround, and sometimes a feature wall, planned together. For a single element on its own, see shower tile installation, bathtub surround tiling, or bathroom tile installation.
What goes into a master bath
Coordinating floor and wall tile
A master bath usually has more tiled surfaces than any other room in the house — floor, shower, tub surround, sometimes a feature wall — and all of it has to read as one deliberate space instead of pieces from different projects planned in isolation.
Double showers
A double shower means two of everything that has to line up — waterproofing, drains, tile lines — across a wider footprint than a standard shower. The layout planning that matters in any shower matters twice as much here, since any misalignment is doubled too.
Freestanding tubs
A freestanding tub isn't surrounded by tile the way a built-in tub is, but the wall and floor tile around it still has to be planned relative to it — centered, level, and finished to a standard that holds up next to a tub meant to be the room's focal point.
Large-format tile on big floors
A large master bath floor is exactly where large-format tile looks best — and exactly where subfloor flatness matters most, since a big open floor has more room for any unevenness to show up as visible lippage.
Feature walls
A single wall in a different tile, stone, or pattern gives the room a focal point without tiling the whole space in something expensive. It only works if it's planned as part of the room from the start, not added as an afterthought.
Sequencing a multi-week project
A full master bath remodel runs longer than any other job DGJ does — demo, plumbing and electrical rough-in, waterproofing cure time, tile setting across multiple surfaces, and grout, each with its own timeline. Unlike a shower-only job, you're typically without the primary bathroom for the full stretch, not just a few days.
Most homeowners use a second bathroom in the house for the duration — worth planning before demo starts, not once you're mid-project. DGJ will walk through a realistic, week-by-week timeline for your specific scope during your estimate, so you know what to expect before you commit.
What does a master bath cost?
This is the largest-ticket job of the seven services DGJ offers, and the price reflects the scope of the whole room, not one surface. {{PLACEHOLDER: price range}}. Here's what moves that number:
- Total square footage — The largest single driver — a master bath covers more floor and wall area than any other tile job in the house.
- Number of wet areas — A shower, a tub, and a double shower each add their own waterproofing and layout work.
- Tile material mix — Coordinating porcelain, natural stone, and a feature-wall material costs more than one material throughout.
- Large-format flatness prep — A big floor in large-format tile often needs substrate leveling that a smaller room wouldn't.
- Demo scope — Full-room demo — floor, shower, tub surround — adds more than removing a single element.
The only way to get a real number is a free, in-person estimate — Dervin walks the room and prices what's actually there, not a phone-call guess.

Master bathroom questions homeowners ask
How much does a master bathroom tile job cost?
A master bath is the largest tile job of the seven services DGJ offers, priced on full room scope rather than a per-element average. {{PLACEHOLDER: price range}}. A free, in-person estimate is the only way to get a real number.
How long does a master bathroom take?
{{PLACEHOLDER: typical job duration}} It's typically the longest job DGJ does — weeks, not days — since it covers demo, multiple wet areas, and full-room tile. Your exact timeline comes with your estimate.
Can we live in the house during it?
Yes, but plan around it — most homeowners use a secondary bathroom for the duration, since the primary is fully out of use while it's under construction. Worth arranging before demo starts, not once you're mid-project.
Do you coordinate with our plumber and electrician?
{{PLACEHOLDER: trade coordination on multi-trade jobs}} A master bath remodel usually touches plumbing and electrical rough-in before tile goes on, so ask about coordination directly during your estimate.
How do we choose tile that works across the whole room?
Pick one dominant tile for the majority of the room — floor and main walls — then one or two accent materials for a feature wall or shower floor, so the room feels coordinated instead of scattered. DGJ can walk through options for your specific layout during your estimate.
Do you do the demo?
{{PLACEHOLDER: demo and disposal policy}} On a full master bath, demo scope gets confirmed in writing as part of your estimate, since it's a bigger piece of the job than on a single-room job.
What's the warranty?
{{PLACEHOLDER: workmanship warranty length}} — every installation is backed by a written workmanship warranty regardless of job size.
