Tile and stone setters held 35,850 jobs nationally in the current Bureau of Labor Statistics panel and plumbers, pipefitters, and steamfitters held 465,840, and one hall bath usually needs both on site the same week. So the best estimating app for bathroom remodelers gets judged on whether it holds that stack as separate, editable lines rather than one renovation number.<\/p>\n<h3>A bathroom is four trades inside forty square feet<\/h3>\n<p>Tile, waterproofing, plumbing rough-in, and finish fixtures are four scopes with four material lists and two labor rates. Lump them and you cannot tell a homeowner why a tile upgrade moved the number, or tell yourself which part carried the margin.<\/p>\n<h3>Waterproofing is a line item, not an assumption<\/h3>\n<p>Backer board, a membrane, mortar, and grout are the part of a bathroom quote homeowners never see and contractors routinely leave out. A gallon of Mapei Mapelastic Aqua Defense lists at $55.97 and a 3 foot Schluter Kerdi roll covering 54 square feet lists at $123.95, so waterproofing a small bath is real money. Price it on its own line.<\/p>\n<h3>One blended labor rate underprices a bathroom<\/h3>\n<p>Tile and stone setters earned a median $26.77 an hour, or $55,690 a year, in the current Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics panel. Plumbers, pipefitters, and steamfitters earned $30.67 an hour, or $63,800 a year. Those are wage floors rather than bill rates, and they sit almost four dollars an hour apart. An app that takes only one hourly number is averaging away the plumbing side of every bathroom you bid.<\/p>\n<p class=\"pm__inline-cta\">Itemized lines you can edit, from one photo. <a href=\"https:\/\/swcostestimator.app.link\/ce-ai\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Price a bathroom line item from a photo<\/a> in about 6 seconds, then edit before you send. Free to try.<\/p>\n<h2>A worked bathroom quote: a 5 by 8 hall bath<\/h2>\n<p>Here is the shape of a tile and fixture swap on a standard 5 by 8 hall bath, priced on live supplier figures captured today. Treat it as the structure of the quote, not a price for your market.<\/p>\n<ol class=\"pm__steps\">\n<li>\n<h3>Measure the floor and the tub surround as two areas<\/h3>\n<p>A 5 by 8 bath gives about 40 square feet of floor. A standard 5 foot tub alcove adds three walls, roughly 10 linear feet run up to 60 inches, or another 50 square feet. That is 90 square feet of tile surface in a room everyone calls small, and the two areas take different waste factors.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Price the tile off a real square foot figure, then buy by the box<\/h3>\n<p>Floor &amp; Decor lists Everest White 12 by 24 polished porcelain at $3.19 a square foot. A box is $49.52 and holds 8 pieces at 1.94 square feet each, so one box covers 15.52 square feet. Ninety square feet plus cuts is 7 boxes, or 108.64 square feet for $346.64. The box math, not the square foot price, is what you pay.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Price the backer board by the sheet, floor and walls both<\/h3>\n<p>Sutherlands lists a 3 by 5 foot half inch HardieBacker 500 sheet at $18.19. Each sheet is 15 square feet, so 90 square feet of tile surface takes 6 sheets plus one for cuts. Seven sheets is $127.33, a line usually buried inside a labor number.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Add waterproofing, mortar, and grout as their own lines<\/h3>\n<p>A gallon of Mapei Mapelastic Aqua Defense lists at $55.97. Mapei Keraflor gray thin set mortar lists at $6.16 for a 50 pound bag, and three bags covers this job at $18.48. Keraflor is unmodified, so over a liquid membrane many setters step up to a modified mortar such as Mapei UltraFlex-2 White at $29.65 a bag. One 25 pound bag of Mapei 19 Pearl Gray KeraColor sanded grout lists at $14.91.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Price the fixtures one at a time, not as an allowance<\/h3>\n<p>Sutherlands lists a Mansfield Alto Profit-4 complete toilet kit, round front and 1.28 gallons per flush, at $204.00. Floor &amp; Decor lists an Eli 31 inch white vanity with a cultured marble top and mirror at $449.99. Those two lines are $653.99, more than half the material here, which is why a lump fixture allowance is where bathroom quotes go wrong.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Total the material, then split labor two ways<\/h3>\n<p>Tile $346.64, backer board $127.33, waterproofing $55.97, mortar $18.48, grout $14.91, toilet $204.00, vanity $449.99. Material comes to $1,217.32 before labor and demo. Then bill tile hours against the $26.77 setter floor and plumbing hours against the $30.67 plumber floor, above the floor in both cases, on separate lines.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<div class=\"pm__callout\">\n<p><strong>What no app fixes.<\/strong> If your price book still quotes a hall bath as one round number, a faster estimate just produces the wrong round number faster. Split the four scopes into lines first, then go shopping for software.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2>The 12 best estimating apps for bathroom remodelers, ranked<\/h2>\n<p>Ranked on how well the tool holds tile, waterproofing, plumbing, and fixtures as separate lines, and on what it costs to run. Vendor pricing comes from each company&#8217;s own page, verified live September 10, 2026.<\/p>\n<ol class=\"pm__steps\">\n<li>\n<h3>SimplyWise Cost Estimator<\/h3>\n<p>Best overall for a solo bathroom remodeler or a small crew, and our pick for the best estimating app for bathroom remodelers. Photograph the room, the tub alcove, or a fixture and the app returns an itemized estimate in about 6 seconds, with material quantities, so tile and plumbing stay separate lines instead of one bathroom number. You can also upload blueprints or floor plans, describe the project by voice, or on a Pro iPhone capture measurements with a room scan. The client signs a branded quote to approve it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pricing.<\/strong> $29.99\/mo or $239.99\/yr, about $20\/mo on annual, with a 7-day free trial. One subscription also opens the rest of the SimplyWise suite: receipt scanning, mileage tracking, and the Receptionist app for the calls you miss while setting tile.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Buildxact<\/h3>\n<p>Best takeoff-driven estimator for a remodeler who bids bathrooms off a measured plan. Takeoff runs against a live material price list, so a tile area and a backer board count come off measured quantities rather than a rule of thumb.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pricing.<\/strong> Go is free. Foundation runs $169 a month on annual billing, billed annually at $2,030, or $199 month to month, unlimited users. Pro is $339 or $399, Master $509 or $599.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Houzz Pro<\/h3>\n<p>Best for a bathroom remodeler who sells the room before the quote. The 3D floor planner, mood boards, and product clipper show a homeowner the tile and vanity in place, then attach those selections to the proposal they sign. Closer to a selections tool than a takeoff estimator.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pricing.<\/strong> Design $99 a month, Pro $199 a month, Teams from $399 a month with unlimited users. Design and Pro include one seat, extra users $50 each. Free Basic plan and a trial.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Handoff<\/h3>\n<p>Best for a remodeler who wants a branded client portal around the bathroom proposal. Handoff competes on document polish rather than tile math, and its top tier adds takeoffs from plans up to 5,000 square feet.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pricing.<\/strong> Flex $119 a month billed annually or $149 month to month, with a 7-day free trial and 2 users. Pro $239 or $299. Scale $719 or $899.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>MeasureSquare<\/h3>\n<p>Best pure tile and stone takeoff for a remodeler who tiles for a living. It sells a Stone and Tile product alongside a mobile room scanner, built to produce a tile layout and quantity list from a measured room, the one job general estimating tools do worst in a bathroom.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pricing.<\/strong> Read the pricing page carefully: its license tiers rendered no dollar figure at all on a plain read today. Only a $400 onboarding starter kit and a $199 a head class carry prices. Budget on a quote, not a posted rate.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Knowify<\/h3>\n<p>Best job costing for a bathroom remodeler who subs out tile or plumbing. Knowify tracks committed costs against a budget per job, so you see what the tile sub and the plumber actually consumed on one bath before bidding the next.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pricing.<\/strong> Core $99 a month billed yearly or $149 monthly, 1 user, additional users $29. Advanced $329, 10 users. Enterprise is quote only. Worth knowing first: custom branded documents start on Advanced. Core creates proposals, change orders, and invoices, but putting your branding on them sits a tier up.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>JobTread<\/h3>\n<p>Best for a bathroom remodeling company that wants project management bundled in. Scheduling, budgets, selections, and client messages run against the same job record as the quote, which matters when a tile back order stalls a bath.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pricing.<\/strong> $199 a month flat with the first internal user included, then $20 each monthly or $16 each on annual for users 2 through 10.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Housecall Pro<\/h3>\n<p>Best for a bathroom remodeler whose phone also rings for fixture swaps and leaks. A field service platform first, so a one hour vanity replacement and a full bath both get dispatched, quoted, and invoiced from one app.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pricing.<\/strong> Basic $59 a month billed annually or $79 monthly, 1 user. Essentials $149, 5 users, extra seats $100 each. MAX $299, 8 users, extra seats $75 each. 14 day trial.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Jobber<\/h3>\n<p>Best all round field service platform with built-in quoting for a remodeler who also runs service calls. Scheduling, a client hub, quoting, and payments sit in one app, with reusable line items for the tasks you repeat.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pricing.<\/strong> Core $29 a month on annual billing or $49 month to month, one user included. Connect $99 or $139, Grow $149 or $199. Plus runs $399 or $499 and starts at 5 users. The trial runs 14 days on Grow.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Contractor Foreman<\/h3>\n<p>Best broad tool for a remodeling business running daily logs and two crews. Estimating and invoicing bundle with time cards and a client portal, priced by user band rather than per seat, which suits an outfit with two baths open at once.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pricing.<\/strong> On annual billing, Basic $49 a month for one user, Standard $105 for three, Plus $166 for eight, Pro $221 for fifteen, Unlimited $332. The trial runs 30 days.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Joist<\/h3>\n<p>Best simple estimate to invoice app for a solo bath remodeler working off a phone. Build a line item estimate standing in the room, then turn it into an invoice in a tap. No takeoff, no job costing, and that is the point.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pricing.<\/strong> Basics $10 a month billed monthly or $8.34 annually, capped at 5 documents a month. Pro $17 or $14.17, Elite $32 or $26.67. A newer tier, Run, lists at $100 a month, currently $70 month to month or $58.33 on annual under a 30 percent introductory discount. The $12 on the Basics card is a struck-through old list price.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Contractor+<\/h3>\n<p>Best free starting point for a new bathroom remodeling business. Freedom costs nothing and still sends estimates and invoices with a client list, enough to bid your first few baths.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pricing.<\/strong> Freedom is free forever at $0, but read the ceiling: it caps you at 5 estimates or invoices a month. Pro $29 a month on the annual view, 1 user. Pro Team $58, first 2 users included. Max $499.75, unlimited users.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>How the best estimating apps for bathroom remodelers compare<\/h2>\n<table class=\"pm__table\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>App<\/th>\n<th>Best for<\/th>\n<th>Where the quote gets built<\/th>\n<th>Starting price<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>SimplyWise Cost Estimator<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Solo bath remodeler<\/td>\n<td>On site, from a photo<\/td>\n<td>$29.99\/mo, 7-day trial<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Buildxact<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Bidding off a measured plan<\/td>\n<td>Digital takeoff<\/td>\n<td>Free tier, then $169 a month<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Houzz Pro<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Selling the room first<\/td>\n<td>Tied to 3D plans<\/td>\n<td>$99 a month (Design)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Handoff<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Branded client portal<\/td>\n<td>Manual, inside a proposal<\/td>\n<td>$119 a month annual (Flex)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>MeasureSquare<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Tile layout and takeoff<\/td>\n<td>From a measured room<\/td>\n<td>No posted license rate<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Knowify<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Subbing out tile or plumbing<\/td>\n<td>Budget per job<\/td>\n<td>$99 a month yearly (Core)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>JobTread<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Project management bundled<\/td>\n<td>Inside the job record<\/td>\n<td>$199 a month flat<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Housecall Pro<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Remodels plus service calls<\/td>\n<td>Dispatch and quote<\/td>\n<td>$59 a month annual (Basic)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Jobber<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Remodeler with service work<\/td>\n<td>Reusable line items<\/td>\n<td>$29 a month annual (Core)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Contractor Foreman<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Two crews, daily logs<\/td>\n<td>Beside daily logs<\/td>\n<td>$49 a month annual (Basic)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Joist<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Solo remodeler, phone only<\/td>\n<td>Manual line items<\/td>\n<td>$10 a month (Basics)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Contractor+<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Brand new business<\/td>\n<td>Manual line items<\/td>\n<td>Free tier, then $29 a month<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<div class=\"pm__promo\">\n<h2>Quote the bathroom before you leave the site<\/h2>\n<p>SimplyWise Cost Estimator turns a photo of the job into an itemized estimate in about 6 seconds, with material quantities.

A hall bath is a two or three day job, so half a day lost to a return measurement is a real slice of the schedule, and every unsent quote is a day the homeowner calls someone else.<\/p>\n<h3>What a photo actually buys you<\/h3>\n<p>SimplyWise Cost Estimator turns a photo of the room into an itemized estimate in about 6 seconds, with material quantities on the line items, and material pricing is pulled from the closest Home Depot to the zip code registered in the app. That is a starting document you edit, and editing a real line list beats starting from a blank screen at nine at night.<\/p>\n<h3>Room scan runs on a Pro iPhone<\/h3>\n<p>On a Pro iPhone the room scan captures measurements directly, which suits a bathroom better than most rooms because the walls are close and the geometry is simple. On other phones the photo, voice, and blueprint upload paths still work. One thing to know: the app does not pull measurements off an uploaded plan, so put the dimensions in the project description.<\/p>\n<h2>How we scored them<\/h2>\n<p>We scored every candidate for the best estimating app for bathroom remodelers on five weighted criteria. Speed to an itemized number carried 30 percent, because a quote handed over on site closes more often than one promised by email. Separate trade lines took 25 percent: does the tool hold tile, waterproofing, plumbing, and fixtures apart rather than as one bathroom total. Price transparency took 20 percent, mobile usability 15 percent, and breadth the last 10 percent.<\/p>\n<p>Only one of the twelve publishes no self-serve rate for its actual product: MeasureSquare posts an onboarding kit and a class price but leaves its license tiers blank, so it lost ground on transparency even though it does the tile math best. Knowify publishes clearly but puts branded documents two tiers up, so we counted that too. SimplyWise Cost Estimator ran the same rubric: top marks on speed and on separate trade lines, giving up breadth to the bigger platforms.<\/p>\n<p class=\"pm__inline-cta\">Try it on the next bathroom you walk. <a href=\"https:\/\/swcostestimator.app.link\/ce-ai\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Price a job from a photo<\/a>, then compare the lines to your last handwritten quote.<\/p>\n<div class=\"pm__next\">\n<h2>Keep reading<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.simplywise.com\/blog\/cost-to-tile-bathroom\/\">Cost to Tile a Bathroom<\/a>: the pricing guide behind the tile line.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.simplywise.com\/blog\/tile-estimate-template\/\">Tile Estimate Template<\/a>: a free template for pricing a tile area line by line.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.simplywise.com\/blog\/plumbing-estimate-template\/\">Plumbing Estimate Template<\/a>: for the rough-in and fixture side.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.simplywise.com\/blog\/best-estimating-software-remodelers-2026\/\">Best Estimating Software for Remodelers<\/a>: the broader category behind this one.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"pm__sources\">\n<h2>Sources<\/h2>\n<h3 style=\"font:700 11.5px Inter;letter-spacing:.1em;text-transform:uppercase;color:#9ca3af;margin:20px 0 6px;\">Material and wage figures, captured live 2026-09-10<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flooranddecor.com\/porcelain-tile\/everest-white-polished-porcelain-tile-101141273.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Floor &amp; Decor, Everest White 12 x 24 Polished Porcelain Tile<\/a> ($3.19 a square foot; $49.52 a box of 8 pieces at 1.94 square feet each, 15.52 square feet a box.)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/sutherlands.com\/products\/item\/3786399\/james-hardie-3-x-5-foot-x-1-2-inch-hardiebacker-500-cement-board\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Sutherlands, 3 x 5-Foot x 1\/2-Inch HardieBacker 500 Cement Board<\/a> ($18.19 a sheet, in stock.)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flooranddecor.com\/mapei-installation-materials\/mapei-mapelastic-aqua-defense-100093459.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Floor &amp; Decor, Mapei Mapelastic Aqua Defense<\/a> ($55.97, 1 gallon.)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flooranddecor.com\/mapei-installation-materials\/mapei-keraflor-gray-floor-tile-thin-set-mortar-100215334.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Floor &amp; Decor, Mapei Keraflor Gray Thin-Set Mortar<\/a> ($6.16, 50 pound bag, unmodified.)

It turns a photo of the room into an itemized estimate in about 6 seconds, with material quantities, at $29.99\/mo. For a remodeler bidding off a measured plan, Buildxact pairs digital takeoff with a live material price list and starts free.

A 5 by 8 bathroom is about 40 square feet of floor plus roughly 50 square feet of tub surround, and you can price that off a square foot figure and a box count in minutes. Dedicated takeoff earns its keep on large format layouts, complex shower geometry, and pattern work where the cut plan changes what you buy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<h3>Bathroom remodel math and cost<\/h3>\n<details>\n<summary>How do you estimate a bathroom remodel without guessing?<\/summary>\n<div>\n<p>Treat tile, waterproofing, plumbing, and fixtures as four separate lines rather than one bathroom number. Measure the floor and the tub surround as two areas. Price the tile by the box, since a box of 12 by 24 porcelain covers 15.52 square feet. Add backer board by the sheet, then waterproofing, mortar, and grout on their own lines. Price each fixture individually instead of using an allowance. Then split labor into tile hours and plumbing hours, because the two trades carry different wage floors.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>What do bathroom tile and plumbing labor cost, roughly?<\/summary>\n<div>\n<p>Tile and stone setters earned a median $26.77 an hour, or $55,690 a year, in the current Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics panel from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Plumbers, pipefitters, and steamfitters earned $30.67 an hour, or $63,800. Both are wage floors rather than bill rates, and the gap is why one blended labor rate underprices a bathroom.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>What does SimplyWise Cost Estimator cost for a bathroom remodel?<\/summary>\n<div>\n<p>It is $29.99\/mo, or $239.99\/yr, which comes to about $20\/mo on annual billing.
