How Much Does a Bidet Cost? [2026 Data]

The tides have turned for the humble bidet. As smart toilets and bathroom technology have become more budget-friendly and environmental concerns around toilet paper are more widespread, there’s a new appreciation for the bidet’s utility—but how much is a bidet? 

We’ve compiled all the information you need on the costs of different types of bidets on the market, including options that average $640. Depending on the type you choose, the actual costs can vary from $400 to $1,500.

Bidet Cost Factors

You know you want a bidet, but how much will it cost? Here are the biggest factors that will determine your project's final budget.

Types of Bidets 

There are a variety of bidets on the market with different functionalities and features. They’re made of varying materials and connect to your plumbing in different ways. Choosing a bidet will be the most significant cost factor for your bidet installation.

Stand-Alone Bidet

This original type of bidet looks very similar to a standard toilet minus the lid or tank. A stand-alone bidet typically sits adjacent to the toilet and is usually made of ceramic. Typical costs for a traditional stand-alone bidet are $500 to $1,500, with an additional cost of around $220 for installation and plumbing materials. 

A stand-alone bidet also requires dedicated plumbing lines that are separate from the toilet. Adding these lines can be quite expensive. Expect to pay around $1,180 for additional bidet plumbing. 

Bidet Toilet

Two-in-one bidet toilets combine the function of a standard toilet with a bidet. They save space and eliminate the need for dedicated plumbing lines, thus avoiding a costly upgrade to the bathroom’s plumbing. 

Costs for a bidet toilet range as widely as they do for toilets, with models available in different materials and with varying features. The cost of a bidet toilet ranges between $1,200 and $2,000; models vary from basic ones to those loaded with features that help create a home spa bathroom, like built-in deodorizers, night lights, dryers, oscillating massage jets, and even Bluetooth speakers.

Bidet Toilet Seat

A bidet toilet seat looks like a standard toilet seat, but it comes with a wand and nozzles. They’re very easy to install and are more affordable than adding a stand-alone bidet or toilet bidet combo. 

Prices for bidet toilets range from $170 to $650, reflecting the various options available for these luxury items. Whereas models that offer basic functions may only cost a few hundred dollars, bidet toilet seats loaded with features can eclipse $600. High-end bidet toilet seats come equipped with oscillating nozzles, multiple nozzles, heated seats, night-lights, water temperature controls, and bidet pressure control. 

Bidet Attachment

With a price range of $80 to $120, a bidet attachment is a budget-friendly way to add a bidet function to a bathroom. This mechanism installs easily to the underside of a standard toilet seat and attaches to the toilet's fresh water supply line. It doesn’t require batteries or an electrical connection to function, and some models can also hook up to warm water. 

Handheld Spray Nozzle

Another affordable option is a handheld spray nozzle. This DIY bidet consists of a sprayer with a hose that attaches to the toilet's supply line and mounts to the side of the toilet tank. While the handheld spray nozzle allows you to direct the stream of water, it can be awkward to use, especially for those with limited mobility. That said, a handheld spray nozzle bidet is easy to install and relatively inexpensive at $40 to $120.

Bidet Installation Cost by Size

Bidets come in different shapes and sizes to fit different toilet models. The most common standard sizes are round seats, which are 17 inches or less, and elongated seats, which are 17 inches or more.

You may occasionally see slightly higher prices for the larger elongated size. However, it's more common to see one bidet model offered in both round and elongated styles for the same price.

Brand 

Getting a brand-name bidet can work in your favor if the product is made with high-quality materials. But rather than focusing on the brand, you should pay closer attention to the features and customer reviews of the models you’re considering. Once you prioritize the features that you absolutely want, like water temperature settings or the option to use a remote, you’ll have a better idea of which bidet will be the best fit for you.

Bidet Installation Cost 

Once you’ve chosen the bidet for your bathroom, it’s time to think about the installation costs. The extent of the work you need to get done will depend on the bidet type and whether you have a GFCI outlet already or need one installed.

Labor 

You’ll hire a plumber to help you with the bidet installation, and they charge $45 to $200 per hour depending on their level of expertise. The installation is likely to take 2 to 3 hours, so you can expect to pay $90 to $600 for the labor.

Plumbing Upgrades 

Most bidet types and models don’t require plumbing updates. Typically, you’ll tie into the existing plumbing system using a bidet T-valve or a Y-valve. These valves will connect your bidet to the water supply line.

Electrical Updates 

If your bidet has electrical features such as instant hot water or a heated seat, then you’ll need a GFCI-protected outlet next to the toilet. These outlets are different from regular outlets because they prevent electrical shock in case it’s exposed to water. You’ll know it’s a GFCI outlet because it will have two buttons in the middle, one that says “Reset” and the other labeled “Test.” If you don’t already have one, you’ll need to call an electrician. Installing a GFCI electrical outlet costs $130 to $300.

Why You Should Hire a Bidet Installation Pro

Hiring a local plumber costs more upfront, but you benefit from faster results, less risk of leaks, and a professional finish. Pros bring specialized equipment and experience, making the process smoother and often saving you money in the long run.

Here’s why it’s ideal to hire a plumber to install a bidet

Installing a bidet requires access to pipes and water, which can be costly to repair or replace if the bidet is installed improperly. Here are some of the top reasons to work with a pro:

• Plumbers ensure toilets, pipes, walls, and floors aren’t damaged in the installation process.

• They have the tools and materials needed to install the bidet safely and effectively.

• Working with a pro ensures your bidet is installed accurately and without the need for adjustments or fixes down the line.

• Bundling bidet installation with other bathroom services, such as toilet or shower head installation, can save on overall project costs.

If you want to DIY bidet installation

If you want to take on some aspects of the project yourself, here are a few DIY tasks that can help save time and labor costs:

• Remove furniture and decorations from the bathroom, including artwork and storage systems, before removal begins.

• Turn off your water to make it easier for the pro to start working without having to do prep prior to installation.

• Remove any old bidets or toilet accessories from the toilet prior to installation beginning.
