From the quote I get for my em toilets, as I am hacking wall and floor tiles too I think is mission impossible to do 2 toilets with shower screen and plus kitchen hacking work and tiling..considering ur is an old house which toilets and kitchen is usually bigger..

Mayb only 2 toilets still can do within 7k mayb plus other work i think is hard, if u can find one please share the contact with me as I am currently also looking for quote.. So far the cheapest quote I get from contractor was 12k for 3toilets

I have received quotes for two toilets hack plus retile up to $3psf at $5k but I think it can be cheaper as long as the contractor is willing to earn lesser.
