How long does a bathroom renovation take in Kelowna?

A cosmetic refresh can be quick; a full custom bathroom with a tiled shower takes longer, because waterproofing and tile cannot be rushed. We give you a realistic timeline up front and agree on it before demolition.

Do I need permits for a bathroom renovation?

If you are moving plumbing, altering electrical, or changing structure, yes. We identify what is required, pull the permits, and coordinate inspections as part of the project.

Can you make a small bathroom feel bigger?

Yes. This is where design earns its keep. Curbless showers, frameless glass, smart storage, and the right lighting and layout can transform how a compact bathroom feels and functions.

How do you prevent mould and leaks?

Proper waterproofing membranes behind the tile and correctly sized, high-CFM ventilation. These are the two things most responsible for a bathroom that lasts, and we do not compromise on either.

What areas do you serve?

Kelowna and the wider Okanagan, including West Kelowna, Lake Country, Peachland, and surrounding communities.

Bathroom Renovations Kelowna | Costs & Showers

A well-designed bathroom is where your day starts and ends. Oak & Ivory designs and builds bathroom renovations across Kelowna and the Okanagan under one roof — from powder-room refreshes to spa-like ensuites with custom walk-in showers. The same certified team plans your layout and builds it, so the details that make a bathroom work (and last) never get lost between a designer and a contractor.

We are an IDC-certified interior design firm and a licensed general contractor, and a proud member of the Canadian Home Builders' Association.

Bathroom renovation costs swing widely with scope and finish. These are 2026 Kelowna planning ranges to help you place your project — not quotes.

Cosmetic refresh — roughly $8,000 to $15,000. New vanity, fixtures, lighting, mirror, and paint, with no change to the layout.
Standard full bath — roughly $18,000 to $35,000. New tile, tub or shower, vanity, flooring, ventilation, and some plumbing.
Luxury ensuite — $35,000 to $60,000+. Curbless custom shower, premium tile, heated floors, bespoke cabinetry, and layout changes.

For the full breakdown from a designer's perspective, see what a bathroom renovation really costs in Kelowna in 2026. We work on a cost-plus budget model, so every real cost is visible as the project runs — no hidden markup.

"I started working with Danielle when we moved into our home. I was struggling to adjust to the new space. Danielle met with us and began exploring different concepts for the house. She created a beautiful space I am so grateful for. The whole process was fantastic and the end result was even better. Highly, Highly recommend.
