Fudbeer Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 Hi Am looking to get a bathroom installed and am trying to get an idea on cost and how long the job usually takes have looked at google but have a feeling prices have gone up since many of those articles! Basically its a small bathroom and includes removing existing suite and tiles and installing new one in same place and wall and floor tiled. Could either supply materials myself or include them. Fully appreciate its only a guide as there are many variables but just wanted an idea. Thanks so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t give you an estimate but my son is a plumber ( sorry he’s fully booked) but his advice is always “ The cheapest estimate isn’t always the best bathroom fitter “ Usually a recommendation from a previous customer is always the best guarantee. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Patricia I totally agree and always do due diligence before hiring. I think like your son many of the best plumbers are fully booked at present and that in itself has pushed prices up.

Better to wait for a busy one and get a better service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GritGit Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 (edited) It wouldn't be a bad idea to rip it out yourself, if you're able. It will save you a pretty penny and you can usually shift the old suite on freecycle. I paid about £1200 for having a shower, toilet and heated towel rail fitted and the shower tiled and it took 2 men 3 days (though they were occasionally just 1 man as they were on another job nearby and would have got in eachothers way for some elements) . That was only fitting cost and everything was already where it needed to be plumbing-wise. Edited October 29, 2022 by GritGit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bungleboy69 Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 If you're supplying the materials. Allow 2 weeks and £4000 for an average bathroom install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
