[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Keep in mind that removing plaster and lath will uncover the studs which may or may not be the right size for drywall. We did that and had to put in some new studs and shims to girl the drywall upright at the right depth. It's a lot of work to orep for drywall. Do you have to remove the plaster? I would patch the plaster instead if at all possible. [/quote] Hopefully the estimate already includes removing the plaster and putting up new moisture resistant drywall/ greenboard in the walls of the shower area - that's probably already 1/3 of the bathroom right there. It might be worth the extra $ to do the rest of the bathroom and get nice new walls. [/quote] It is included and we plan to add the extra, I just want to know if I'm being gouged and should negotiate. He agreed to "split it" with us for $1900 extra. [/quote]
