The published range

Angi, How Much Does Water Damage Restoration Cost? puts bathroom fixture water damage at $140–$800. For a whole water damage job the guide's national average is $3,868, with most jobs between $1,383 and $6,369 and the full span running $450–$16,000. The entire bathroom fixture range sits below the typical low end, so it describes a part of a job rather than a whole one.

By midpoint ($470) it ranks 7th of the 8 damage areas the guide prices. Drywall is the next area up and Appliance leak the next down. Bathroom fixture leaks come from a small, visible source: a supply line, a toilet seal, a tub or shower surround.

Water type changes the rate. The guide prints $3.50 per sq ft for clean water (Category 1), $5.25 per sq ft for gray water (Category 2) and $7.50 per sq ft for black water (Category 3, includes sewage). Arithmetic on those rates: the top of the bathroom fixture range covers about 229 sq ft of clean-water drying but only 107 sq ft of black-water work, about the floor of one or two rooms.

Fixture by fixture, the guide lists leaky pipe $150–$350, toilet $140–$400, bathtub and shower $200–$800 and drains $200.

If the area is not dried in time, the problem changes. “It is important to dry water-damaged areas and items within 24-48 hours to prevent mold growth.” (U.S. EPA, A Brief Guide to Mold, Moisture and Your Home) The guide's own mold line is $1,200–$3,800, and the mold guide prices the related bathroom location at $500–$1,000.

Insurance industry figures put the area range in context: the Insurance Information Institute reports an average water damage and freezing claim of $15,400 for 2019-2023, about 19 times the top of this range, which reflects claims that span several areas at once.
