Is it possible to renovate a 6 by 8 bathroom for $12,000?

Someone from New York Kitchen & Bathroom (NYKB) just told me that I will be “miserable” and “Good Luck!” when I told him my budget was $12,000 for a small bathroom reno. Is this budget so low it warrants being treated like such a worthless pauper by these companies?

What I need to have done is:

1. Redo the ceiling and install overhead lighting
2. Replace iron tub
3. Replace tile on walls and floor
4. Install new vanity
5. Install 3 feet of cabinetry
6. Install a new radiator cover

I’ve already called a few contractors I have found here on this forum. But so far, no one has called me back. Can you give me some good opinions on whether I will be able to do this within a budget? Also, can you give me some more recommendations for contractors?
