Subject: Labor/material cost. The typical split for labor/material is 60/40; a little more than half the cost is labor. The labor cost includes general contractor overhead and profit. $17,000 sounds like a reasonable average for a master bathroom remodel. A smaller powder room or guest bath could of course be much less.
According to an annual construction cost survey by Remodeling Magazine, a mid-range remodel of a 5x7-foot bathroom averages $14,109-$18,864; for an upscale expansion of a 5x7 bathroom to 9x9-feet within the existing house footprint, costs run $46,865-$59,456. These are averages; actual costs may be higher or lower.
