A combined kitchen and bath remodel in Tampa Bay typically runs $35,000 to $90,000 depending on size and finishes, and doing both together usually saves 10 to 15 percent versus two separate projects. Most paired remodels take 5 to 9 weeks. CraftLine is a licensed design build contractor, so one team designs and builds both rooms under a single contract and schedule.
The reason to hire one kitchen and bath contractor instead of two is not just convenience. Permits, demolition, plumbing crews, and material orders overlap, so combining the work removes duplicate mobilization costs and keeps the finishes consistent from room to room. Most directory listings and showroom sellers will not quote this honestly, so here are the real numbers.
Kitchen and Bath Remodel Cost in Tampa Bay
| Room | Standard | Mid-range | High-end |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kitchen | $15,000 to $25,000 | $25,000 to $45,000 | $45,000 to $80,000+ |
| Bathroom | $18,000 to $30,000 | $30,000 to $50,000 | $50,000 to $75,000+ |
Run the two rooms together and the combined cost is lower than the sum of those columns because the trades, permits, and project management are shared. Check the math against our free cost calculator, our 2026 kitchen budget guide, and our bathroom cost guide.
Why Combining the Two Saves Money
- One permit package and one set of inspections instead of two rounds
- Plumbing and electrical crews mobilize once, not twice
- Materials like tile, quartz, and fixtures ordered together, often at better pricing
- One design language so the kitchen and bath actually match
- A single project manager and schedule, so the disruption to your home happens once
What This Looks Like in Tampa Bay Homes
Pairing kitchen and bath work makes the most sense in older Tampa Bay homes where the plumbing is shared and aging. South Tampa and St. Petersburg homes built before the 1960s often have a single run of galvanized or cast-iron pipe feeding both rooms, so re-piping once while the walls are open is far cheaper than doing it twice. In 1980s and 1990s subdivisions across Brandon, Valrico, and New Tampa, the builder-grade kitchen and hall bath are usually dated in the same way, and homeowners get a better resale story updating both at once. We coordinate permits with the right authority, whether that is Hillsborough County, Pinellas County, the City of Tampa, or a city with its own building department.

Kitchen and Bath Remodel FAQ
Is it cheaper to remodel the kitchen and bath at the same time?
Usually yes. Doing both together typically saves 10 to 15 percent because permits, crews, and material orders are shared instead of duplicated.
How long does a combined remodel take?
Most paired kitchen and bath projects run 5 to 9 weeks, depending on how much plumbing and structure move.
Can I live in the home during the work?
Most homeowners do. We sequence the rooms so you keep at least one working bathroom and a basic kitchen setup through most of the project.
Do you handle the permits?
Yes. We pull permits and manage inspections with Hillsborough County, Pinellas County, the City of Tampa, or your local building department.
Should I re-pipe while both rooms are open?
In older Tampa Bay homes with galvanized or cast-iron lines, it is often worth it. Re-piping once while the walls are open costs far less than coming back later.
