## Answer

A new bathroom fitting in India has three cost buckets. Plumber labour: ₹2,500–₹8,000 for the full pipe run + fixture install (angle valves, taps, WC, shower/mixer, basin, geyser connection). Mason labour: ₹5,000–₹15,000 for demolition, tile laying, waterproofing, and finish. Total labour ₹7,500–₹23,000.

Fixtures: a standard set (WC ₹4,000–₹10,000, basin ₹2,000–₹6,000, shower + hot/cold mixer ₹2,500–₹8,000, geyser ₹5,000–₹15,000, mirror + cabinet ₹1,500–₹5,000, angle valves + hoses ₹800–₹2,000) totals ₹15,800–₹46,000. Premium brands (Jaquar, Kohler, Grohe) push this to ₹40,000–₹1,00,000.

Tiles + waterproofing + plaster: ₹8,000–₹30,000. Wall tiles ₹35–₹80/sqft, floor tiles ₹45–₹120/sqft, adhesive + grout ₹5–₹12/sqft, waterproofing membrane ₹35–₹80/sqft.

A standard new-bathroom-from-scratch job for a 5×7 to 6×8 ft bathroom: ₹30,000–₹60,000 all-in (labour + fixtures + tiles). Mid-range with better fixtures: ₹60,000–₹1,20,000. Premium with imported brands, marble accents, and glass shower enclosure: ₹1,20,000–₹3,00,000+. Metros add 25–30%.

## Frequently asked

### How long does a new bathroom fitting take?

10–14 days for a standard 5×7 to 6×8 ft bathroom (demolition day 1, waterproofing days 2–3, plumbing rough-in days 3–5, tile work days 6–10, fixture install days 11–13, finishing day 14).

### Can I buy fixtures myself?

Yes and you should — direct-buy saves 8–15% over the plumber's supplier margin. For premium brands (Jaquar, Kohler), savings are ₹5,000–₹15,000. The plumber only supplies pipes, angle valves, and small fittings.

### What is the plumber labour cost for a new bathroom?

₹2,500–₹8,000 pan-India for full pipe run + all fixture installation. Metros (Mumbai, Bangalore): ₹3,250–₹10,400. Excludes tile work + waterproofing (mason).

### Do I need a plumber and a mason for a new bathroom?

Yes — different trades. Plumber does pipe layout + fixture installation. Mason does demolition, waterproofing, tile laying, plaster. A general contractor coordinates both if you don't want to.

### What is the cost of a new bathroom in Mumbai?

Standard: ₹39,000–₹78,000 all-in. Mid-range: ₹78,000–₹1,56,000. Premium: ₹1,56,000–₹3,90,000 (base × 1.3 Mumbai multiplier).
