I have a 4bd/2ba that I want to add another bathroom to. There is a small “office” (it’s not big enough to be considered another room) that I would like to convert to said bathroom. The two existing bathrooms are right next to each other in the rear of the house and the water cutoff is in front of the property, on the sidewalk.

What considerations would I need to worry about with a project like that? We don’t want to go septic.

    Not a super thorough answer but if you’re thinking about a full bathroom vs a half, one thing that may come up is the current size of your water heater and the size of your family. 3 showers running simultaneously and/or water appliances may warrant getting a larger size heater which will add to the price of the project.

      It’s gonna be a full bathroom, though it will be tight quarters. The water heater is something I hadn’t thought of though. So thanks for bringing that up.

        Full bath- nice. Bonus option if you go with a new water heatee: tank vs tankless. Good luck with your renovation.
