Bathroom Refit Quote - Fair price?

Layana

Hello all,


I was wondering if anyone could offer me any advice about the following quote I have received?



My bathroom is fairly average sized, neither pokey nor spacious.

I have asked a couple of firms for quotes via websites based on feedback system and customer ratings. I understand tiling is expensive so requested a quote for all required plus all required minus wall tiling.

Quote is self explanatory in terms of what I require etc.

10. Replace existing radiator with new customer supplied towel rail style radiator.
I Will Be Supplying:

That sounds pretty good to me. Im in the same situation with a flat im buying and mine comes to £1250 to remove the old suite, fit new bath/basin/toilet and electric shower (supplied by me) and then tile the walls (tiles supplied by me and grout/adhesive etc supplied by fitter)

He's also having to replace the chipboard floor due to a leak from the old toilet. You seem to be getting a fair bit more for your money than me however Im in the south so things can be pricey down here! Is the electric work included as a proper electrician will be needed for the shower?

Good luck with the project, before you start make sure you are very confident with the ability of the fitter as I've been stung with a couple of bad plumbers in the past. Im using the check a trade website now as at least you can see feedback from other customers before you use them!

Thanks for the info, I found his chap through Mybuilder.com and he had good feedback and although slightly more expensive than the previous quotes I have received, he is an electrician so will fit the electric shower, whereas previous quoters would not. He seems more confident with the job too.

(I am in Midlands)

I intend to have maybe one more quote before I commit I think.
