IMO the most cost-effective parts of a kitchen or bath reno, that you could pay yourself in labor vs. pay a contractor would be 1) careful demo and cleanup, 2) painting or skimcoating, 3) re-using existing materials/accessories or using refurbished ones in a clever way (e.g. re-use existing cabinets and painting them)

Happy to connect and learn!
