- This guy has talked smack about me in the past on his channel, where we have NO INTERACTION WHATSOEVER....so when I saw his interview on TileCoach a few months ago bragging on his 24k shower build ( YES, shower only ) I had been in the process of a REAL 25k job and I'm calling him out on his Bullshit bragging. There's NO WAY this standard subway tiled shower cost 24k END STOP !

thats like a room re-construction rather than just a bathroom remodel.
Wow ! The difference from beginning to end is phenomenal ! You knocked this one out of the park 👌🏻👍🏻
As a major contractor Im hoping the homeowner was chasing after that $4500 reframing of the floor as thats a $2000 job max...Bob, your tile install work is great but thats some ugly materials and belongs in a Vegas hotal from '88. Idf love to get those rates here but will never happen and Im the most expensive install in my area.
Great shower by the way, I also would like to keep in mind where your at, some places are cheap, some are blown out of proportion. A very good tile guy I know bid a job so high because he was busy and they just accepted it. Same with me, hope all is well
It’s almost impossible to compare bathroom remodeling costs. I’m at $65k for mine, but it’s a complete relayout of the MBR including relocation of a wall, toilet, shower drain, sink supply and drains, electrical work with new boxes and sub panel. About 500 SF of tile, 100 SF hardwood flooring, two vanities, lights, mirrors, new toilet, medicine cabinet, digital shower valves for 6 zones, 3 zone ceiling shower head, overhead drop rain heads for a bench area, etc. Tile alone was $5500, shower plumbing plus fixtures around $7000. Too much variation in bathrooms (like kitchens) to make any valid comparisons. You need a lot more info to know if you are being taken to the cleaners or not.
What the hell you need 65k for a bathroom for !!! This house better be 12 mill ! 😂😂😂
@@Esiddik 'Cause nice stuff is really expensive (unfortunately). Shower heads alone (3) were $3800. Digital controllers, roughs, and trims added another $4500. This was just hardware (install labor not included). I could go on and on. 500 sqft tile was $5500, material only. Add another $10k for installation (I had 3 quotes: $8500, $10500, and $13000). And on and on...
@@stevog4422 I am so intrigued by this bathroom! 😂😂Is there picture or video on your channel ??
What brand shower head was this
@@Esiddik I have no channel, sorry. 2 Moen S1003 10" square rainheads on 10" drops from ceiling, and 1 Hansgrohe Raindance Imperial overhead panel (18" x 26") with 3 separate zones. And I got the Hansgrohe for $2900 which was much, much less than MSRP cause that model was being discontinued.
@@stevog4422 no worries, thank you for the information I will look all of them up. I’ve learnt so much just from this small conversation with you.
They have the word engineered in the company name but surely no engineers on that job sight. Shouldn’t haven’t paid them for that. They made a mess of it for sure.
It’s truly impressive. Your cuts are second to none. That drain looks great
Nice job Bob!
Artwork.
Well worth it
Thank you for showing their workmanship 👍
Love your vids!
Absolutely beautiful work. I’m a tile man up in NY. I always appreciate a true craftsman when I see one.
Why make things harder than need be. Could have simply rabbeted the back of the sill plate to accommodate the different height of the rim joist. table saw makes quick work of it😁
I would have blocked the floor joists too on other side of bathroom for proper support.
I have been a general contractor since 1993 and get 25k for tub to shower coversion. Its all about quality of work and excellent reputation! Never ever advertised!!! Clients are always happy and probably the only contractor that hasn't had to go back and fix a problem!!!!!! Simple, never make mistakes!!!
I either do the work or watch over my subs like a hawk!!!🤣 Thats why I do the work myself!!🤣
$25k job and they opted to save $500 by keeping the old toilet and vanity? People will justify the strangest things to themselves.
One of my favorite RUclips tile guys right here. If you see this comment, I mentioned before how I’d like to go on a live stream with you one day. I have been so busy with my tile business taking off since I last commented on your channel. 24 showers since this time last year. 14 walk in and ten tub surrounds 8 feet high of of the tubs. Plus quite a bit of floor tile.
Anyway this job on this video that you did is beautiful and excellent quality. I’m hoping the $25,000 was just labor that you got paid. If not you gave them a smoking deal IMO.
Edit, I just seen your breakdown of the pricing at the end and I definitely think you gave a super good deal. Just my opinion, you could charge way more because of the quality of your work. But at the end of the day if you can do even one project like that a month you still have a way better wage than over 90% of the population in the US.
What a beautiful shower. Turned out amazing!
They paid for the name and the quality you bring. No headaches. It’s a hell of a lot better than begging viewers for money. Instead value your service you price higher
Begging viewers for money 🤣
As they watch a free video and gain knowledge, meanwhile other youtubers make thousands a month from their videos, sell merchandise, Amazon links, etc etc....not me
So yeah, the few hundred I make "begging" is a drop in the bucket compared to others YOU watch💯💯💯👌🏻✌🏻
Leave them a review with a link to this video. If I call an engineer and they come with handy patch work everyone will know the type of work they do! That’s garbage work. Smh
Oh Bob, what did you get yourself into with this one!
Nice work.
Hi Bob,Very good job on this one Sir.What trim kit,shower head,spray wand did you use in this build?
Hands down Bob..
Yours looks way better.
That was some extensive surgery with the floors and walls
Bill pongon must have built that up for you 😂😂😂😂
nice work bob! i thought i made some long dog ears on my marble nitch sills but those are the longest.. looks sweet.
Man that pan is gorgeous, the mirror tile is really nice also.
Bob I like your channel. Even though you do a few things differently than I do verity is the spice of life. With that said I can not for the life of me understand why you even care what someone else charges for their work or what they claim to charge. I see & hear guys all the time complaining about what other contractors charge. Makes no since to me why anyone one would care one way or the other. The only person that’s opinion matters is the customer bc they’re the ones paying the bill. Just my two cents. Nice work by the way, top notch as always!!
It does not matter how your tile job comes out .what matters skill labor is not cheap.
I usually put my niche light switch at the main switch area at the entry door. Was there a particular reason why you put the niche light switch by the shower wall entry area and not with the other switches ?
There's also power supply very very close to where the shower was and easily tapped into, so it had more to do with Logistics than anyting
The idiots should have done the right thing, torn it all out and redone the job properly.
Make sure to get a delta monitor 17 handle assembly, it has temp and flow control separate. So many valves just do temp, no flow control. To mate with the r22000 body
What mortar did you use for your shower floor deck? Awesome work as always brother 👌
Yes good yes this is $25.000
wow,i thought you were a tile guy?,lol....Your a full blown home improvement company!It amazes me how much stuff costs for someone else to do in your house..i do almost everything myself with great results..i did my entire 1100sqft basement with bathroom for $10k less than what you say you have into just this bathroom!wow
when you ask what looks like a $25k bathroom,i can honestly say NEITHER of them.nothing against you or anyone else at all.to me it looks like a $10k bathroom at the most!Maybe its because me and my wife would never pay that kind of change to get something like that done or that that i would to 3/4 of it myself.
Keep in mine that we are not cheap,just built a new house 5yrs ago in the country with my own shop so i like good stuff,just dont like to throw away money and we are not lazy
I did a $28k shower, 5.5’x4’ with a 2’x4’ bench all real Carrera marble, all solid slabs for bench, curb top and nich sill. Fully gutted, cut into slab to re-route drain.
So I believe that definitely could be up there!
damn straight! skippy LOL
Fuking awesome
Yesssssss
Ron doesn't sound like I'd hire him
I've known the man for twenty-five years, he's smarter than you and me put together 👌🏻✌🏻
And yes, that’s a 25k bathroom if not more up here in NY.
Great work. The people made terrible choices in there, but your work was great
U just had to twist the fork. 🤔
It's fun sometimes 🤣
I’m not a fan of US bathrooms as I live in the Uk.
Your job/work looks great all day long and definitely looks the price.
You don’t need to justify your price. 👍
Brits always think UK stuff is superior 😂
Bob you are freaking awesome!! You are the Donald Trump of tile guys!!! One of a kind brotha! They don’t make ‘em like you anymore. Keep up the GREAT work!
Its what the market will pay rich houses and middle class
wow. i'm undercharging. 😅
amazing work man!! you couldve charged more.
Green sheetrock isn't supposed to go on ceiling
Great job Bob?
That guy from Hamilton Tile charges double because they're 2 installers. It seems to me one guy is responsible for advertising, bidding social media and the other guy is doing most of the labor. They work for 6 hours a day. So they charge double since they're 2 owners and they have a life balance between work and family.
That's garbage, you can't charge more just because you have more ppl, if they had 4 ppl they could charge 48k ???😂
@@GleceanCox🤣🤣🤣
@@GleceanCox You can charge whatever you want as long as your customer is willing to pay. It's a free country, not a communist country. The guy is clearly a good sales person, most contractors suck at selling. You said this bathroom remodel was $800 a day? Fancy High-end remodeling businesses are bidding at around $3000k for labor a day per installer, $350 an hour. I know a ton of contractors who bid at $1500 a day. I know plumbing businesses charging $350 an hour, most charge $150. At the same time there are unlicensed and immigrants charging $45 an hour. There are all kinds of prices and quality. Well I think $100 to $150 an hour is fair though....$800-1200 a day. I charge around $800 a day and I live in Seattle one of the most expensive cities. I'm not good at selling like those guys.😥
I'm a tradesmen and it's a lot of labor and I've seen friends do diy and it really looked diy finish product, not the greatest.
Are those other guys in CA?
I think you need a permit and inspection for evey nail, stick of wood, pipe, wire, and plastic.
So why not call them and tell them to get their asses back out there and fix it correctly
What makes you think they can fix it if they couldn't do it right the first time. Sometimes it's better to cut things off
@@AutismusPrime69 that’s what’s wrong with this country and the younger generation, no one is held accountable for anything. People know how to do things correctly but they don’t cause they know they can get away with it. You can bet if that company had to keep going out to jobs to fix mistakes eventually they will stop making those mistakes
Ron's tailgate warranty > Engineering nerd stamp
Ive never seen floor joists that rotten! wow! Bottom plates yes but not the floor joists! Gut the whole thing for sure
If that other bathroom is $24k then yours is definitely $50k. Going by that other guys logic.👍🏻Good job, looks awesome!
🫵 looks great👍 I can see the cost being accurate if not more honestly, I to am a perfectionist and I believe a very skilled tileman should be worth the weight in gold🤷♂️👍
