Supply and fit new bath

mancitychick

I live on the north/west Yorkshire border and have been quoted £725 for the following;

Supply & install 1700 x 800 bath
supply and fit telephone style shower tap
Make good first row of tiles round bath

Is this fair? Apparently 800 wide baths can cost a good bit more than 750mm? Also being told telephone style taps can be pricey.

Cheers

Good evening: Whether the price is fair would depend on the quality of the bath and mixer...if good quality then the price sounds okay...but get at least 3 quotes in. BTW did you ever get any joy with your Building Regs certificate (new boiler installation)??

Yes, finally got my certificate on Tuesday:j

I finally got hold of the fitters wife (who does his admin) and she said she would look into it - I told her corgi said its not too late to notify them of work. She phoned back a day later to say that she has made an online notification and to let her know if any problems.

I was just chuffed they finally reported it, didn't see the point of getting into a debate about them already saying that they had reported and them obviously ignoring Corgi's reminder letters.

The only thing I am slightly concerned about is on the cert it states any mistakes to be raised with the installer. According to the cert the date of works is Jun 07 whereas it was actually Oct 05. Does this really matter? Its been hard going to get a certificate, I was just going to leave it there. Could that come back to bite me?

Good afternoon: Result!!! Excellent news...the important thing is you now have a Building Regs compliance certificate and you will be able to produce it if you sell...CORGI should have pulled the collective finger out on this one (and a multitude of others !)
