Anyone done a basement finishing job with a contractor? I'd like to have some reasonable numbers in my head before we start the process. One contractor looked and said $60K but he also quoted a high number for our kitchen, and we ended up spending less than half.

We have two large rooms, one small bathroom (plumbing is all there, but the room needs to be expanded so at least one wall needs to move), the staircase to the main floor, one hallway/closet area, and possibly the bulkhead and stairs to the backyard (ours are starting to corrode). I don't think there's any heating down there yet either. The floors are concrete and the ceiling is a cheap drop ceiling, so we'll need those as well. The walls are in good shape.
