Quote for refitting a bathroom

Options
Got a quote from a fitter to refit a bathroom, remove old tiles and appliances and install new tiles on floor and wall, shower panel, basin vanity unit, toilet, shower enclosure and shower.

It’s a small bathroom around 2150mm x 1650mm. I was quoted £1600. Is this fair?

    It sounds fair enough to me; if you are supplying the tiles AND they are actually going to remove all the appliances. If this price includes the tiles, then it is very good.

    They will have to take quite a bit of care if they are going to remove everything that is plumbed in in order to tile, plus they have to allow for problem removing old fittings. Are you sure they are going to remove everything? Or will they just tile around everything?
    The comments I post are my personal opinion. While I try to check everything is correct before posting, I can and do make mistakes, so always try to check official information sources before relying on my posts.

    Eat vegetables and fear no creditors, rather than eat duck and hide.
