Are you all getting the good waterproofing, like Schluter?

Didn’t compare to G/C but we got quotes from a few and they were all quoting roughly the same price which was much cheaper than our design build firms quote.

Do Home Depot and Lowe’s have people who can help?

All 4 of the quotes I got only included labor and the general behind the wall materials, then we picked finishes, sometimes with the contractor's help, and paid for those separately. Do other folks pay a set price for everything all included?



More or less the same experience here at the same price - we remodeled in 2022.

Would you mind telling me who you used in Fairfax? We are looking to do something similar. Thank you!


+1. I'd love to know who did this work, assuming it's with a licensed contractor.

New poster. Can anyone recommend a contractor that is honest and does good quality work that would work in Montgomery County? We have a 2nd floor bathroom that's probably 8x10. We think the supports under the floor need to be fully redone (gut the walls and floors, replace the supporting beams) but leave the layout the same. It's just a shower, toilet, double vanity and replace a few windows with tile. I understand fixtures are the biggest variance. Anyone that has had a good experience (on time, on budget) would be appreciated. I've had quotes for probably $25-$40k but not really impressed so far with who we've seen. I also don't want one of those firms that basically just talks their showroom and doesn't think through issues with older homes.

That does seem high. We had a bath renovation with very minor plumbing moves in a slightly bigger space for I think $35 k or a little more all together? I’d get at least one more quote. But keep in mind you will pay more if they source everything for you. We ordered everything ourselves and it was a huge pain but saved money obviously
