Primary bathrooms (formerly called master bathrooms) are the highest-impact bath remodel in any Indianapolis home. They drive resale value, daily quality of life, and are often the largest bath in the house with the most opportunity for upgrades.
A typical primary bath remodel includes a tile walk-in shower with frameless glass, a 60 to 72 inch double vanity with quartz top, comfort-height toilet, large-format tile floor, and updated lighting. Optional upgrades include a freestanding soaker tub, heated floors, linen tower, and built-in shower bench.
Many 1990s and 2000s primary baths in Carmel, Fishers, Noblesville, and Westfield were built with a corner garden tub that homeowners now want removed in favor of a larger walk-in shower. This is the single most common primary bath layout change in the Indianapolis market.
Quartz tops, large-format porcelain shower walls, wood-look porcelain plank floor, frameless glass enclosures, and shaker vanities in painted or stained finishes are the dominant material set in current Indianapolis primary baths.
A standard primary bath remodel in Indianapolis typically runs $25,000 to $50,000. Higher-end suites with custom tile, double vanities, and freestanding tubs run $50,000 to $90,000.
If you actually use it, yes. If it is decorative, most homeowners convert it to walk-in shower space or remove it for a larger vanity wall.
