- Plumbing was the main headache for me, but I did end up having to rewire a chunk of the bathroom.
I get the temptation to gut all the old wiring—been there, done that—but sometimes I wonder if folks jump straight to “replace everything” a bit too fast. Some of that old cloth-wrapped wire can be perfectly safe if it’s not brittle or frayed. Not saying leave a fire hazard, but I’ve seen people rip out stuff that was still totally solid. Also, $8,500 for a small bath? Mine was closer to $6k by sticking with what worked and upcycling a few fixtures. Surprises in the walls are basically tradition though... found a mummified mouse behind my medicine cabinet once.
