        "text": "The overall cost of a small bathroom remodel depends primarily on fixture selection, plumbing changes, and tile scope. Keeping existing plumbing lines intact keeps labor expenses lower, whereas moving a toilet, shower drain, or vanity requires extensive subfloor access and pipe relocation. Material choices—such as standard acrylic shower surrounds versus full custom floor-to-ceiling tilework—also shift the budget significantly. Setting a realistic plan requires deciding early on whether you need a cosmetic update or a full tear-out down to the wall studs.",
