Is $10K for a complete bathroom remodel unreasonable?

[Justin]

So I've had my bathroom completely remodeled, and the cost was $10K. A bunch of people who evidently didn't want to offer to do the work are now claiming I'm getting ripped off. I don't necessarily agree, but then again, I've never had home renovation work done before.

Here's a list of everything they did:

Complete demolition of the old bathroom
Replaced section of the floor support area that had rot
Installed new flooring (that synthetic wood stuff that floats on top of the sub floor)
Installed a vent fan (previously there was no fan at all, so they had to wire it to a switch, and install vent piping to one of the vents in the attic)
Installed new toilet
Installed new sink
Installed new, taller, vanity
Installed new light fixture
Installed new tub
Installed new shower head/faucet
Installed tile around the tub
Converted a coat closet into linen shelves (basically they took out the door in the hallway, installed new sheet rock/paint/etc. to seal up the old door, and then cut a hole in the wall of the bathroom so that space could be better utilized as linen storage)
Painted
Handled all purchases of fixtures and materials

The contractor I picked has had two guys working on it for seven days, 8am-3pm.

FWIW, I'm completely pleased with the work that's been done, the bathroom looks a million times better than before.

But, am I getting ready to pay too much for this work?

The 10k was parts and labor correct? Sound about right for this market, how many SF is the bathroom?

Yep. Parts and labor. The whole shootin' match.

It's a small bathroom, so one sink, one toilet, one shower.

I don't think so. I did my own bathroom remodel and think I probably ended up spending about $5,000. I'm willing to bet that my bathroom is smaller, and I likely purchased cheaper vanity and maybe even tile than you did.

[BladesNBarrels]

I think you did well.
I have had estimates to complete a roughed-in bathroom in my walk-out basement.
10-15k is right in there, but no one wants to take on the project just now.
Uh, okay.

[Little Dutch]

It depends on your material cost.

I spent close to 10 k total when I did our main bathroom about 8 years back.

ETA- I bought all the materials, but had a wood worker build my cabinets, an electrician do the wiring work, and a meth-head do my tile, drywall, texturing, paint, and vent work. The cabinet guy may have been a meth head too actually, but he did excellent work.

I got asked to bid a bathroom a month ago where the competing bid was 12K$ to replace the tub with a shower only.

You did fine.

[ChickNorris]

Yep. Fine.

I think it's a pretty good price. Besides if you are happy with the work and OK with the price does it really matter what anyone else thinks? Seems like now a days it's hard just to get a quality contractor at any price.

The other half is who's unhappy, which is why I'm asking for a (likely to be ignored) sanity check.
