Are B and Q a good optio for a new bathroom?

I am thinking of using B and Q for our new bathroom refit.

They came out and quoted, not cheap but nt ridiculous.

I have read many bad reviews, has anyone any good reviews?

Thanks

  • Hi Jhev, each to there own really, I have just done this recently and sourced my own bathroom then got a local plumber to install it. Get a quote from a few companies to get an average cost, always good to shop around. When getting other quotes just make sure they are quoting for the same items but main answer to your question I personally wouldnt use b&q, you can get a better job and product for half the price(IMHO)

    Or better quality for the same price. or example in Glasgow there is an industrial estate called Hillington where you will find a number of outlets that will specialise in bathrooms, floors, tiles etc, try and find similar near you.

    A year or so back there were some stunning deals around because there were so may cancelle trade orders.

    Alternatively there are some good deals online but for me the saving would need to be huge in case something went wrong. We had a broken cistern which was easy to replace with the shop not too far away.
