Adding a master bedroom may cost anywhere between $10,500 and $15,500, depending on the kind of addition you want. For a luxurious bedroom and bath, the remodel cost can go as high as $80,000!

Since a master bedroom is typically the largest bedroom in the house, exclusively built for the heads of the household, adding or renovating it costs considerably more than an ordinary bedroom. Of course, a master suite adds a lot more to the cost.

On average, a master bedroom measures around 224 square feet. This is one room that is present in virtually every home.

Your total cost to remodel a bedroom takes into account a number of factors, including the total square footage of space, the scope and complexity of the renovation, the bedroom remodeling ideas you choose, the type of flooring, your zip code, local labor costs, the quality of materials, the type of paint job, the decor and other finishing details.

A master bedroom is a self-contained unit with an en suite bathroom (often with a state-of-the-art washbasin, shower, bath and toilet), a dresser with a mirror and exquisite furniture items. It may even accommodate a walk-in closet.

Here's a cost guide for essential items and features for an average master bedroom:

Flooring

Based on your budget and preferences, you can choose the type of flooring that suits your bedroom renovation. Here are three popular choices for a master bedroom:

  • Carpet flooring: $0.50 to $1 per square foot
  • Laminate flooring: $1 to $3 per square foot
  • Hardwood flooring: $5 to $10 per square foot

Heated flooring

When it comes to adding heated floor for your master bedroom, you have two choices: an electric system and a hydronic system. Installing an electric system will cost you approximately $1,500 while a hydronic system ranges between $6,000 to $14,000.

Paint

The cost of painting your master bedroom depends on the square footage plus the finish you choose. The price generally ranges from $30 to $40 for every gallon used.

Furniture and fitments

Here's a list of some essential items and their average cost:

  • Queen bed frame: $350 to $500
  • Memory foam mattress: $1,500 to $2,000
  • Wardrobe: $150 to $600
  • Bedside tables: $350 for a pair
  • Dresser: $500 to $600
  • Bookcase: Starts at $150
  • Lamps: $150 for a pair
  • Ceiling lights: $250

Labor cost

Adding or renovating a master bedroom usually requires a minimum of 15 hours of work. A contractor will charge you around $100 per hour. Therefore, you can expect to pay between $1,500 to $2,000 for the entire project. If you hire additional services such as an interior designer, decorator or structural engineer, your total labor cost will increase accordingly.

A master bedroom is more than just a room to sleep in. More often than not, homeowners want to create a luxurious space where they can get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

If you feel that your existing master bedroom lacks features that could add to your convenience or is beginning to look jaded, a remodel is surely on your to-do list. Quite frankly, who doesn't want to transform an outdated bedroom into a stylish sleeping paradise? A revamped or remodeled master bedroom holds immense value in any potential home buyer's market.

It's very important that you plan your master bedroom remodel well in advance. Here are some tips to make the process easy and quick:

  • Organize your bedroom renovation with thorough research.
  • Set a realistic home remodeling budget. Always include leeway for some surprise costs. According to experts, you should add 20% extra to your existing budget.
  • Check your local building code for permit requirements as well as building inspections. Generally, any home addition will require a construction permit.
  • Work with expert bedroom contractors you can trust. A professional finish goes a long way in adding to the beauty and value of your home
  • Keep your bedroom layout in mind before adding or installing fixtures. A finished master bedroom should never look cluttered.
  • Although a flooring professional will take the exact measurements of your room, you must have an idea of the size of your room.
  • Make sure the remodeling contractor you hire measures the room at least twice to avoid incorrect installations.
  • Choose quality materials for your flooring, lighting and other features.
  • Factor in an extra 10% to your renovation estimate to account for any room irregularities or issues with the cost of materials.
  • Opt for hardwood or carpeting to suit your requirements and lifestyle.
  • Before laying your new floor, be sure to vacuum the room to remove any dust particles in the area.
  • Select convenient, correctly sized bedroom furniture and fitments.
  • Get a written contract from your contractor with a warranty or guarantee, details of the complete schedule, deadlines for milestones and the payment process.
  • Maintain a timeline in order to manage a seamless job.
  • Though you can renovate your master bedroom anytime of the year, it's more economical to avoid the spring and summer rush.

These steps will help you avoid unexpected hassles and issues, and make your master bedroom remodeling project run smoothly.
