You may have misunderstood the estimate as to be variable when it was fixed.

Different return requirements, different variables, different assumptions.

Plaster and drywall count as noncombustible, but a plastic dishwasher drain pipe doesn't.If there's a basement, or even a crawl space, under this kitchen, you might consider running a new water supply pipe and drain pipe down there. 

Use this community as there are many folks willing to share, but also give back - that's how it works.So you've heard several people inputs regarding the issue, accept a partial - cut it off and go to court - wait for the lease to run out... all kinds of variables.
