RELIABLE BATHROOM FITTER / TILER REQUIRED - WARNING


RPK073

Recommended Posts

Seems noone wants any work in Dulwich anymore!


Ive been badly let down by 2 bathroom fitters now; the first I got off here who bascially destroyed my flat and left the place in a complete mess to the point where I had to take evidence. The second was a recommendation who made promises he had no intentaion of keeping.


I am pretty shcoked and disapointed at the quality of traders in the area who are actually prepared to actually have some respect for their clients and do as they said they would. My request was quite simple and to actually see how some of these guys work is shocking; how they remian in business is anyones guess.


My request:

Main requirements:

Finish floor - grouting, may need some levelling.

Seal and skim one wall.

Tiling on 2 full walls; 2 half walls

Rad fitted

Bath and toilet linked up.


Is this really a big job?? Just after someone who has a few days to come in a complete the work I have been so badly let down with


Thanks

Richard.

    • You'd need to get a proper quote (or three) for instance removing a cast iron bath is a very different job from removing an acrylic one. Again what pipe work will be being joined into - matching old imperial pipes with modern metric ones is different from like to like, as is dealing with a copper or an iron distribution system. The amount (area) of retiling required is an issue, as will be the state of the wall behind the tiles. It may of course all be very plain sailing, or not. Have a first look at plumber recommendations on the relevant pages on this site. If it's all easy then 3 days work may be sufficient. But it could be a week if there are snags. 
    • Hi. Can anyone suggest a plumber for the job below? Replace bath tub with a shower enclosure, putting pipes to showerhead behind wall, re-titling damaged/removed tiles Also any idea of the costs involved for the labour as we will buy the items required?
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays!
