Does anyone know what will cost for labor only to add a half bath? I have all of the materials. I have unused space under staircase and I want to add a half bath. All plumbing can be used from upstairs bathroom near by.

and we're stuck. Our main bathroom has been in need of some repair for quite some time. After a few incidents with a leaky sink, overflowing toilets from DS5 sticking toys in it when he was younger and a leaky bathtub faucet has prompted us to decide that we need to remodel the main bath soon...

DH & I are planning on remodeling our very tiny galley kitchen and adjoining family room by expanding out about 8 feet. The problem is, neither one of us has an eye for what goes together. We both know what we like/don't like when we see it, but just aren't creative enough to coordinate things...
