Pls help...home major alterations...2 bathrooms to be added.

My sister is planning on adding 2 bathrooms to her home in the SF Bay
Area, California.

Basic bathrooms- similar to what you would find in a track home.

1. This one will have a bathtub and sliding door, toilet and 2 wash
basins. Will require medium upgrade bathroom tiles, and on counter and
flooring.

2. This one will have a shower stall ( instead of bathtub) and will
have 1 wash basin ( instead of 2 ) and toilet.

Can anyone pls give us an "estimate" of how much this would cost ? and
generally how long it would take to get it done.

Anything to look out for ?
Any pointers, suggestions ?

Thanks in advance for all your help.

More important than the info given, is what's not given:

The words alteration and additon are both used, so Is this a true
addition, meaning adding foundation, roof, and exterior walls, or is it
conversion of some space in the existing structure?

Are the bath rooms to be located together, back to back, or one above
the other? Or are they in two seperate areas of the house? First
floor or second floor? What is the exterior construction? Slab or
basement/crawlspace?

All this is very important, because to convert an existing unused space
to two back to back baths is going to be a whole different project from
adding two seperate second floor baths on to an existing brick house.
