Bathroom refit prices?

[T5GRF]

We have 2 bathrooms that need completely re- fitting. I have had a couple of quotes and have been surprised at the cost. So what do we think is reasonable to charge to fit the family bathroom with pedestlal sink, bath, close coupled concealed toilet, underfloor electric heating and thermostat. The other bathroom is the same with the addition of a shower tray and door.

Sounds similar to mine - I had a quote of £3500 including tiling.

Hmmm, we'll need to know more about it to provide a decent guess!

How big are the bathrooms?

Tiles, all walls, half high, only around the wet bits?

What is currently there to remove?

Are the quotes for supply and fit or just fitting?

We need more info!

Sorry should have said just to refit the toilets etc tiling already taken care of. The refit is just replacing everything in their current locations. We already have power shower pump and all other electrics installed. Bathrooms are both approx 6 x 9 feet. The quotes are to fit only as above are in the region of £2500 per bathroom.

If the tiling is already done and it is simply a case of fitting then that is quite expensive!

It's quite hard to click on a thread with no name!

Lol sorry about the title it did have one but my iPhone seems to have deleted it somehow when posting.

Blimey. Those prices do seem high but can't really comment without seeing the job. If it's a case of just restoring a new suite that would take about a day and with the electric floor about another day. So allowing for a few problems a competent plumber / spark would see both done in a week so say around 2 k for both.

That's better, I thought it was a conspiracy to stop me reading it!

OP man up and do it yourself. Really isn't rocket science! Plus you'll get to play/buy some really cool tools.
