Cost of refitting bathroom - help!


B&G

Recommended Posts

Been shocked at quotes coming in at ?4.5k and ?5.5k for labour only, to refit bathroom and tile. Nothing is being moved and the loo isn't even being replaced.


Shower, bath and sink all being replaced in identical spot.


Room is approx. 3m x 3m (so the total floor tiling is 4msq) - can anyone share recent quotes with me? Am I just out of touch?!

I had total refit everything stripped back and all new had underfloor heating walk in shower instead of bath and mine was that for worker as plumbing, electrical work fitter

Mine was done with Ivan company as I got him through bath store, he has since done complete refit of kitchen all high standards even done neighbors as they were so impressed

Bathroom took I week excellent worker clean and work all through the day

I happy to send you photos of work as you are not having so much work done as I've had it should not be as expensive

A year ago adult son and I decided to refit our bathroom. New bath, wash basin, flooring, and tiles. We had never tried anything more complicated than decorating before.We had much help from the staff at Plough Homecrafts where we bought things we needed apart from tiles, bath, basin and cabinet. And we googled lots of "how to" information online. It turned out beautifully and fraction of the price.

Hmm, I'm wondering whether we might have to tackle the project ourselves as the quotes are just madness. I thought I could get the whole thing done for ?5k, including the cost of the suite, but if the quotes for labour alone are this expensive it's just not possible.


Thank you Gaynor - I will contact Ivan and ask him to come over and take a look.


Many thanks

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
