The ledger, explained
The Bath Ledger is the San Diego record of what bathroom remodeling really costs. We don't sell remodels — we record what licensed contractors publish, what the City requires, and what real timelines look like, so you can request quotes with the numbers already in hand.
How a figure gets published
- Sourced. Every number starts on a named source — a San Diego contractor's own price page, a City of San Diego Development Services bulletin, a state license record.
- Written with the source attached. A range is always one source's range, dated. We never blend published prices into a fake "market average."
- Re-checked against the source. Before a page goes live, each figure is read again against the page it came from — and the source stays linked so you can do the same.
- Kept current. Each page carries its publish and update dates, and the ledger is updated as contractors publish new pricing.
What we promise
- No number without a name. Every figure traces to its source, linked or named on the page.
- Corrections, fast. Spot a figure that drifted? Tell us on the contact page — fixes land with a visible "Updated" date.
- Straight answers. If sources disagree, we show the disagreement instead of hiding it.
Who makes the ledger
The ledger is researched and written by Rachel Nguyen — the working byline of our research desk. We are independent researchers, not licensed contractors: what we add is sourcing discipline, and every page shows its sources so you can check us.
