Askthehandyman - Bathroom repairs

Hello Steve,

Thank you for your question! You asked for an opinion
on the cost of a job. Here was your question: "How much to tear out old tub and plumbing? Then replace with new fiberglass shower unit and faucet. Small drywall repair and paint. One course ceramic tile border and trim cap. Have to break concrete to move drain."

This would probably amount to about a $2000 job. Before hiring a handyman to do this work, be sure to check that they are adequately licensed to do this type of work in your state. In California, the limit for work without a license is $500.

Hope this is of some help,

Thanks for asking,
