Contractor is owner/sole employee.

These pipes branch to a waste stack that has to be replaced. Would need the pipes replaced and the concrete demoed. Then floor prepared so I can tile it myself. Demo wall tile on 3 walls. (I'd also tile that)
Keep original sink, toilet and hopefully cast iron tub. 1920s semi detached home.
I just had this done. Concrete demoed, demo down to the studs. I moved/relocated everything (tub, sink, toilet), the waste stack and all pipes to the bathroom were updated (they were all old copper pipes), reframing and leveling of floor (joists had to be shaved down to level with the floor outside). My entire labor costs was $15,000 but I don't know how much of that was demo and updating pipes/relocating plumbing and finishing the rest of the bathroom, which included recessed shelving in tub, recessed medicine cabinet with outlet inside, etc.
Fixtures, including tile was about $4000 (on the high end but not luxury). Building materials about $3000. I did not reuse anything so everything was new.
Hope that helps.
Wow, Thank You SO MUCH for posting this!!! Did you do it in DC perchance? Any way to share your contractor's contact info??

This is helpful, thank you. We were told that it doesn't really make sense to redo the bathroom without going to the studs, because, for example, you could be laying new tile on top of pipes that are old/could burst/etc. That's part of why we were told it was so expensive.
