Bathroom installer recommendations

[maxrider]

As per title, Leicester area. Complete refit, suite, shower, floor and walls tiling.

Contacted 5 so far and of the 3 that actually turned up 1 has failed to send a quote 2 weeks later, 1 turned the job down flat and the other must think my surname's Rothschild.

Ivan Bolton 07870 214934 and Simon Pigott 07890 066367

Both from Bingham, South Nottinghamshire. Absolutely 100% confident in their work and attention to detail. Also very reliable. Just had 2 bathrooms done by these guys - came from another recommendation and another VERY happy customer.

eta Ivan is a fully registered plumber, and Simon is the tiler - and a PROPER tiler!

Eh, your council house looks right smart with the new bathroom Phooey. Once inside you'd almost forget about the sofa in the front garden and burnt out Vectra outside.

No problem.

We'll need our bathroom re-done soon so I might give your chaps a call. Bit worried about them being from Bingham though - we don't normally allow ruffians in the house and we don't want anything stolen.

Mind you they might refuse to touch our existing bathroom with its 1980s suite and green tiles with water lilly images dotted about. Yeah, we're retro here baby.

That sounds lovely Manks what you have there

Can't be any worse than the orange 30 year old suite they just ripped out of our house. Was tempted to sell it to Luna-Interiors it was that retro!

Seriously, these guys are well recommended. And the best bit.... they are ultra reliable!

Thanks, that's worth knowing.

Now I just need to overcome my tight-fistedness. If I'd known you had an orange suite going spare I'd have had it installed.

You know what too, ten years from now we'll all be ripping out white suites and putting in burnt orange / avocado / spearmint.

Funny you should say that. I was tempted to buy BLACK sanitary ware for a change, but thought it too risky if we ever sell

Pricey I'd have thought?

[Manks]

And probably quite tricky to keep looking clean.

[Phooey]

It can be pricey. And yes, would be a bh to keep clean. Although probably wouldn't show the pubes so much around the toilet rim

Though semen would be more obvious.
