Hi everybody,

I had a quote for some work needed in my bathroom - sounds quite steep to me, but don't really know. Any advice would be appreciated. I'm in Norwich btw:

I have worked through the details of the work required and have come to a total of £700.

I will list below what is and is not included.

Included

Remove floor boards to access soil pipe
Repair damaged/leaking soil pipe
Clear any blockage in the pipe
Relay floor boards
Supply all pipe and fittings required to carry out repair
Supply any new floor boards if Required

Not Included

Removal of any waste
Relay vinyl floor in bathroom

    A days work, even for 2 plumbers £400, £50 materials - just a guess. So yes expensive.

    Ask him if he supplys the lube
    Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.
