Thanks for the reply arche, this house is in need of a major overhaul. Beyond just master bath and kitchen. However, it is good to have those numbers in mind. In fact, those were kind of the numbers I was expecting for the bathroom/kitchen remodeling. My main question was more along the lines of how much would the OTHER stuff cost. (Mainly plumbing and electrical of the rest of the house). Another question about architects, I will most likely be looking for one in the near future. How easy is it for architects to work within a budget? Like if I say I want to spend XXX amount of dollars. Do they keep these things in mind as they are designing?
