Any tips on hiring contractors? I received a few quotes for a bathroom and these people think they are worth senior manager/partner pay.

Get several quotes . I think a basic remodel of a bathroom should cost $5k of labor, and materials can go as cheap as u want it to. Any higher than that is going to be a measure of how many special features you want your bathroom to have. Buy your own materials (cabinet, tile, flooring, fixtures) so the contractors can’t up charge everything. Ask for the contractors quote as “labor only”.

A lot of good quality and low priced items can be got from Home Depot/Lowe’s. Look around at tile and flooring warehouses near you for better quality or more variety.

These type of contractors (who are well trained and do a good job) are few and far between. They are going to ask for that type of pay for a good job, as previously said you get what you pay for.
