My two cents worth-for free.
Cost-you are better off having several jobs done at the same time. One way or the other,
you pay for the person to come to your home and then a charge for the work. So if they are already there the other jobs will cost less.
Replacing a sink, a toilet are easy. Last time I did them, my back was 20 or 30 years younger.
Oh, and plumbing parts were metal, not plastic. Flexible connectors are far easier than needing to bend tubing, compression fittings etc.
Time-I recall changing out our kitchen sink. I bought the best. Cast iron sink porcelain covered. Read that as heavy. The faucet, I put it in and took it out 3-4x. I could not get the faucets to turn correctly. I called the company the next day they were opened.
They told me the instructions were wrong-oops. For me days. For a plumber ??? an hour
job.
Fun? Only if I spin the truth.
