Tradies, halp please, finishing basement

Hey guys quick question.

I have good contacts with my best friend who used to run a business flipping houses, had multiple contractors working for him etc.. I’m reaching out to various carpenters, electricians, plumbers etc for finishing basement in parts.

I got the framing done and have the electrician starting next. If I ever sell the house I’m just going to say I YouTubed how to do everything myself, since he won’t be technically legal in doing the work. It’s a journeyman electrician who has been doing it for a few years. Anyways, we have two outlets with separate breakers in the basement, to get another outlet with its own breaker into the bathroom it’s a big pain in the ass and price increase. It’s a guest bathroom that will see 0 use 95% of the year, do you see any problems with it sharing one of the two already existing breakers ?

Thanks will rep and send bang and zyn and slim Jim’s.

No and I don't think anyone will ever check it ever. All that a house inspector checks for is a gfi outlet in the bathroom so put one in. Other then that who cares that's its on the same breaker. A breaker is a breaker and will trip if there is a fault

Half of the crap you rear online in misleading. I was putting in a induction cooktop and the online pros claim you need #6 wire to run it lol.

#6 wire will run 10 houses or more on the overhead lines.

You are gucci bro.

I have 2 breakers feeding my Bathroom, as you ideally need a separate 20amp branch for your outlet feeding hair blowers etc .
I think your pushing your luck imo

Thanks guys I will reach out to him again. If the inspector is going to want a gfci and it needs it’s own circuit I might as well do it now, I personally don’t care cuz no ones going to be blow drying etc.. down there but need to have it ready to sell.

Ya it’s getting over the top weird here in cuck canada. You can’t even use a conventional breaker in a bedroom anymore , but must use an expensive breaker with arc fault protection.
You push a light switch to slowly , and it trips when it senses the arc .
We all survived to adulthood without this BS . Just a cash grab is all it is
