Bathroom Renovation Company Dubai — Waterproofing, Design & Luxury
Stop guessing costs and tiles. See it in 3D before you pay. Waterproofing first, flood test before tiling, and a clear scope you can trust.
People Also Ask Answers, Simplified
A bathroom renovation fails for two reasons. Wrong waterproofing and unclear scope. Dubai bathrooms look simple, but behind tiles you have slope, drain alignment, plumbing joints, and waterproof layers. If the base is wrong, the final finish becomes expensive later.
Revive Hub works with a simple rule. Waterproofing first, clarity first. We plan the layout and finish in 3D preview, then we execute with a 24 hour flood test before tiling. That is how you avoid leaks, rework, and surprise costs.

Realistic Budget Breakdown
People also ask what is a realistic budget for a bathroom renovation. Use this planning model to avoid under budgeting. The safer approach is to protect waterproofing and plumbing first, then choose tiles and fixtures.
| Budget Item | What it includes | Typical Share | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|---|
| Labor and installation | Demolition, tiling work, fittings, alignment, slope, finishing | 35% to 45% | Most expensive part in many remodels is skilled labor, especially tiling and plumbing precision |
| Waterproofing and plumbing | Waterproof layers, pipe checks, drain work, flood test | 15% to 25% | This is the hidden risk. Fixing leaks later costs far more than doing it correctly now |
| Tiles and finishes | Wall and floor tiles, grout, trims, niche finishing | 20% to 30% | Large formats and better grout reduce maintenance, fewer joints means fewer failure points |
| Sanitary ware and accessories | WC, basin, taps, shower set, mirror, accessories | 15% to 25% | Premium fixtures can push budgets quickly, plan the level early in 3D preview |
| Contingency | Unseen fixes after demolition | 5% to 10% | Small buffer keeps decisions calm and prevents cutting corners |
Whats the Most Expensive Part of a Bathroom Remodel?
Most people guess tiles are the most expensive. In reality, the biggest costs come from skilled work and hidden fixes. Use this table to spot where budgets usually jump.
| Cost Driver | Why it becomes expensive | Common mistake | Revive Hub prevention |
|---|---|---|---|
| Skilled tiling work | Alignment, corners, niches, slopes, cuts, grout lines | Cheap labor leads to uneven tiles and water pooling | Proper surface prep, slope planning, and finishing checklist |
| Plumbing adjustments | Moving points, fixing old joints, replacing traps, drain alignment | Covering old issues with new tiles | Inspection first, then rebuild points only where required |
| Waterproofing | Layering, corners, penetrations, curing time | Skipping flood test to save time | 24 hour flood test before tiling |
| Sanitary ware level | Premium mixers, smart WC, custom vanity hardware | Choosing fixtures late after work starts | 3D preview confirms fixture category early |
| Custom shower glass | Measurements, hardware, installation precision | Wrong glass sizes because walls were not perfectly aligned | Final measurement after tiling completion |
