Me and my father did my brothers bathroom which was a complete gut down to the bare studs , re sheet rock , spackle, paint , tile , new tub , lighting fixtures , and some lite plumbing all within 3 business days for about or under 3k. Just shows you how much your paying for labor costs lol i mean granted it is labor intensive but still ..

My going rate I pay is per day not job, if I need something done regarding plumbing I make sure I have everything I need to get done on the plumbing ready to go or as close to it as I can, also for painting and other things.
We just did our powder room. $2500 for fixtures (vanity, toilet, mirror, chandelier, vanity light, and fan install, tile) and $2500 labor and materials(crown molding, chair rail, box trim, and baseboard molding). In general $300-$400 per day is fair for someone who can do everything(lay tile, plumbing, electrical, and trim work).
You may as well replace the tub, and definitely all the plumbing. With tile 4 ft high all around, the cost for direct replacement should be 9-12K. You may even get a new window and door for that number. Only use registered and insured contractors, stay away from anyone who hires illegals.
Why would I spend a few thousand dollars on a new jacuzzi tub if I have a perfectly good one now?
Assuming that you'll keep the existing piping and rough-ins and assuming a lot of other things I think, it'd cost around $13,000. See the cost breakdown below. Add another $750 for a new door with trim, hardware and paint. I hope this helps. Let me know how other estimates compare.
