    I am currently looking into doing up my bathroom. Its in some state to say the least.

    The whole place will need to be gutted. I am just wondering what kind of quotes people have got especially in the current climate?

    Are you better off getting lads (plumber, tiler etc .. ) in separately or going with a company that does it all?

    Between 3 and 6k. a crowd is currently doing it for 2k but they tile over tile which is a sh1t job.

    PM me if you want contacts. I worked at this for years. I will even tell you the crowd that does it for 2k;)

    Thanks

    Just an update on this:

    I went looking at bathroom show-rooms last Saturday. I got 2 of them out to look at the bathroom and give qoutes.

    One of them was a joke. They left stuff off the quote and seems to come up with a random figure.

    The 2nd place I got seems pretty good and they knew their job. I had things written down like dry lining the wall & moving pipes under the floor boards and he recommended them before I said anything. They quoted €4400 for the following:

    - Removal of old bathroom
    - Skip
    - Strip back bathroom walls and dry line
    - Insertion of electric vent
    - Tiles walls (26 sq yards)
    - Tile floor (4sq yards)
    - New Shower Bath
    - New Shower Door
    - Move pipes under floor boards
    - Reduce boxing of pipes
    - New Wall Hung WC with wall nut boxing
    - New WHB with wall nut unit below for storage
    - New walnut storage unit above toilet
    - New mirror
    - Tool Radiator
    - 4 spot lights
    - Triton T90 Supplied & Fitted
    - 3 yr guarantee

    What do you think of this quote?

    is it including labour? If so, this is good price. If not, let me know:)

    Its not a bad Quote, although it does depend on the quality of your tiles and units etc.
    I'd imagine your getting Marble tiles and Imperial Bathroom Furnishings ? for that price you should get something better than a fancy hotel bathroom. Also you can save alot by buying Up North, They'll even deliver.
    My Brother does the showers supplied and fitted for €600.
    Also they should be able to Hide all the Pipes, otherwise they are just being lazy.
    PM if you'd like more info
