Roughly, how much would it cost and how many hours would it take to have drywall and new tile installed around a standard size tub (3 walls: from top of tub to ceiling, walls; 2 walls @3ft wide, 1 wall @ 5 ft wide).

All old drywall and tiles will be removed by homeowner. All materials bought by homeowner. Just labour costs.

I do many of those and I just finished one today just like you described.

It depends on what kind/size of tiles, borders and niches.

And how do you treat the seams and moisture proof the backer board.

All things considered, I charge $2,500 to $3,500 for labour. Takes me 4-5 days (but short days) and I work around the GTA and we are usually booked solid.

It would take me 2-3 days. The third day would just be the grouting. I dont know labour costs in your area.

3 days... I would not go near this job.. no money to be made. Owner seems to want to do everything himself. He/she will probably watch youtube on how to tile.

Labour cost is approx $3000 and would take about 4 days to be completed.
