We've just had a new bathroom fitted. We bought and paid for the 3 pc suit, I just needed plumber to remove existing bathroom fittings/tiling and replace with new 3 pc fittings, re-tile walls and floor.
Our bathroom measures 7ft x 9ft. He had to fit & install cabinets, wash hand basin, toilet and shower tray/surround, re-tile half height of wall behind cabinets, fit sheeting to shower walls and tile floor - all as were originally fitted.
Like I say we bought and paid for all tiles, fitting, electrical work - everything...we just needed it installed.
Foolishly, I never kept a tally of hours he worked, but all in all it won't have taken more than 7/8 full days.
Our bill is £2450 plus VAT....£2960 incl. - no breakdown of charges, just says bathroom fit & re-tile.
Half way through job, he tells us he's taking our workman off the job to finish someone else's as he's had one of his employees go off work so he's temporally short staffed...we agreed to this as we werent that desperate for it to be finished, and could understand his problem. Two weeks later they return to finish...
Bear in mind also that this chap has fitted three new bathrooms in our house over the last two years, and has been recommended to our friends for work on 5 occasions this year, which resulted in work awarded.
