[QUOTE="eyexer, post: 117119, member: 315"] as a guy that built homes for close to fifteen years those are the most absurd numbers I've ever heard of for a bathroom of any pittance. I put in one hell of a nice master bath in my newest home and I maybe have 9K in materials and I have a 5'x6' shower with numerous shelves and a seat, double shower heads, etc. Done in slate and tavertine which is big bucks. Corner whirlpool tub 8' double vanity with top cabinet, quartz counter and hammered copper sinks. Slate floor too. Two custom mirrors I made using expensive slate tiles along the sides. And a 8' wide linen closet with shelves and two solid oak big fold doors. If those are the numbers your getting they flat ass don't want to do it. I would general it myself. Draw it up. Decide what you want for fixtures and where the shower is going to be. Talk to a plumber and have him come rough it in. Go buy your tile at a good tile shop that has their own installers. Contract them to do the shower and whatever tile work for you. You can get a handy man to sheetrock and mud it out if you can't. But honestly a bathroom is a slam dunk to rock and mud out. You should be able to get a trim carpenter to install your cabinets if you need to. I still can't believe those numbers. Assinine. Felt I should add my costs All Tile (bought at The Tile Shop in Burnsville, MN and trucked to my house)-$3500 Corner Whirlpool tub-$1000 8' of Vanity with top cabinet-2,000 Toilet-150 All faucets-600 Sinks-200 Doors-350 Counter (Menards Quartz) 700 Shower door 200 let's do a 1000 for misc like tile backer etc. [/QUOTE]
