Hayes Plumbing & Bathroom Renovations is a bathroom renovation contractor for Pickering homeowners who want one company to design, build and finish the room. We handle layout changes, custom showers and tub replacements, tile, vanities, plumbing, fixtures and finishing, and we complete the renovation start to finish from our shop at 448 Ritson Rd. South in Oshawa, about 25 to 35 minutes away. Free in-home estimates and financing through Financeit are available.

Bathroom renovation and remodelling services in Pickering
Our cost guide sorts bathroom projects into three levels, and the estimate tells you which one your plan falls into:
- A cosmetic update: paint, vanity, fixtures, mirror and lighting, with no plumbing moves.
- A partial renovation: new tile, a tub or shower replacement and updated plumbing connections.
- A full gut renovation: the room is taken down to the studs, with a new subfloor, plumbing rough-in and electrical.
What we build
Within those levels we offer bathroom design and layout changes, custom and walk-in showers, tub-to-shower conversions, bathtub replacements (alcove, standalone, drop-in and jetted), walk-in tubs and accessibility features, custom tiling and heated floors, vanities, cabinetry and countertops, regular and comfort-height toilets, faucets and shower trim, custom glass, exhaust fans and full finishing. We supply Moen, Kohler, American Standard, Riobel and Mirolin products and also work with clients who supply their own.
Pickering neighbourhoods we serve
We renovate bathrooms throughout Pickering, including Bay Ridges, West Shore, Rosebank, Dunbarton, Amberlea, Liverpool, Highbush, Rougemount, Woodlands, Village East, Brock Ridge, Duffin Heights and the newer Seaton neighbourhoods in the north.
Older homes may still have original supply lines, including grey poly-B in some houses, or aging drain lines behind the walls. If demolition uncovers them, Hayes also replaces poly-B and repairs pipe, so the fix can be priced into the same project instead of being sealed behind new tile.
Bathroom renovation cost in Pickering
For large bathrooms over 100 square feet, such as large ensuites, spa bathrooms and dual-vanity layouts, our 2026 Durham Region bathroom renovation cost guide lists $12,000 to $20,000 for a cosmetic update, $20,000 to $35,000 for a partial renovation and $35,000 to $55,000 for a full gut renovation. Across all room sizes, the guide runs from $5,000 to $55,000.
The biggest differences come from scope, room size, plumbing moves, fixture and finish choices, accessibility work and hidden conditions, and premium fixtures typically add 15 to 20 percent. When you compare quotes, check that each one covers demolition, plumbing, electrical coordination, waterproofing, surfaces, fixtures, disposal, permits and exclusions, not only the final number. Our estimate is free and in writing.
Permits for bathroom renovations in Pickering
Building permits for plumbing work in Pickering are issued by the City of Pickering's Building Services, not the Region of Durham. The City's list of work that typically does not need a permit includes direct replacement of a toilet or sink with the same, CSA-approved fixture where nothing is relocated and no pipe or plumbing work is done, and cabinetry or millwork without plumbing. Its list of projects that may need a permit includes any plumbing, installing or modifying plumbing systems, finishing a basement, adding or removing walls and adding a second suite.
A tub-to-shower conversion that moves the drain, a new layout or a basement bathroom should therefore be checked with Building Services at 905.420.4631 or through the City's online permit portal. The City allows an owner to authorize a qualified designer or contractor to obtain the permit on their behalf.
