Bathroom - Toilets

An essential aspect of any bathroom remodeling project, toilets come in assorted shapes, styles, and colors. Regardless of style – from vintage pull-chain to a mod euro design – a toilet is still basically a toilet; each has similar space requirements.

Varieties include:

• Standard / traditional toilets – usually a basic white porcelain bowl with flush tank and chrome or plastic flush handle. Prices start at under $200 to just over $400.
• Eco-friendly, European style dual-flush toilets – that hook up to standard American-style plumbing; requiring no modifications. Prices can range from $400 to $800.
• Designer toilets – such as a one-piece design in black porcelain. Prices range from $400 to over $5,000 for stainless steel combo units; novelty-type designer toilets with an elaborate wooden high-backed “throne” can be acquired for around $9800.
• Bidet toilets – that offer hot and cold water “washing up” features range in price from just under $400 to well over $1200.
• Totally-unique natural stone toilets – including honey, ruby, and green onyx; black granite, limestone, and marble. Some come with ornately carved marble or other stone water casings, with silver or gold-leaf seats and/or flush handles can cost well over $50000. The sky is the limit!

Add on accessories like heated toilet seats or a washlet/bidet seat can range from just under $400 to over $700.
