前几天得到大家的很多好建议，先谢谢了！现在我们让licensed contractor报价，方案号称是最简单的那种（把closet拆了改淋浴房）。大家帮我看看这个报价合理吗？工程$18000, DOB报案$6000, 讲价到一共$22000, 材料要自己买的，是一个白人contractor. 这个价钱怎么样？是否一定需要向DOB报案？还有什么地方可以省下钱来？

=============================================
就是下图右下角的half bath, 希望改成full bath.

目前想到的方案就是把左边的closet墙打掉，在那个地方装淋浴间。这是最好的方案吗？

另外，右下角的走廊非常别扭，浪费了空间，就是为了通到后面的washer, dryer. 有什么好办法可以利用上这段走廊吗？最好是能改造成closet啥的。

想不通啊，大家帮帮忙吧。

同疑问。。。。。。。。。。。。
