I have been let down by a bathroom fitter, who stripped out my old bathroom and then buggered off. I urgently need someone who can finish the job, or at least get the tiling done so I can finish the rest. The tiles are 60x60 porcelain, so a bit beyond my abilities.

Does anyone know anyone who is reliable, skilled and available at short notice?

Cheers,
Edward

Do you need a plumber?
I think the only plumbing job left is to move the pipes for the towel rail to be suitable for a new location. I think we found a tiler (hopefully not a terrible one) who can do the work next week.

What part of Bristol are you?
Bedminster, very close to Parson street station. I was going to try to DIY this given the time constraints, but if you could help, please message me smile

Just lifted a few boards to get the floor nice and straight and discovered this left by the last fitter I had in. It seems I may need a plumber after all:

The waste pipe from the shower is running uphill where it is pushed by the water feed, pipes are crossing over and resting on each other putting stress on the connections. Am I overreacting or is this not fit for purpose?

If anyone knows someone who can help me, please let me know.

I ended up using Paul. He did an amazing job under very difficult circumstances, definitely comes highly recommended!
