Looking for a bit of help with my PPOR bathroom reno project. I'm renovating with a view to adding equity. My personal preferences are secondary to what will generate equity. Keeping costs down is a priority and ideally would like the job to cost sub $3k.
Current classy 60's bathroom looks like this:

Thinking to do the following:
- Large white tiles on the walls
- Large grey matte tiles on the ground
- Resurface bath and basin white
- New shower frame
- Re-use existing vanity (which is in good condition still)
- Depending on funds, new tapware in the shower
In this order:
- Remove shower frame - me
- Detach vanity - me
- Detile walls - me
- Remove existing floor - professional (anticipated asbestos underneath) - $TBA
- Resurface bath and shower basin - professional - $800 guesstimate
- Retile floor and walls - professional tiler - $TBA
- Install new shower frame - professional - $TBA
A few questions about the project:
- Are the list of reno's in line with what would generate the most equity for least spend?
- Have I got the order of reno's correct?
- Have I missed any steps? (for example, after de-tiling will the walls need to be re-sealed prior to having the new tiles installed)
- What are the ballpark costs for the floor removal (asbtestos), retiling, shower frame and shower installation?
Thanks in advance
