Ways to save in Ventura

Keep the toilet, tub and sink in their current locations — that single decision can save $3,000+.
Use a prefab shower base with tile walls instead of a fully custom mud-set pan.
Refinish the tub ($400–$700) instead of replacing it if the shell is sound.
Choose porcelain tile that mimics stone rather than natural marble.
Order fixtures early; back-ordered vanities are the #1 cause of stalled bathroom jobs.
