Bathroom Refit

[united]

Can anyone give me an average price of how much a plumber would charge to take out an old bathroom suit and then fit a new one?

I know there are so many variables but just looking for an average cost.

I'm getting some prices of a few plumbers I know and just don't want to get ripped off.

I wouldn't normally quote for the full bathroom refit, just the tiling but the customer has asked if I can give a full price.

Thanks for your help

Think if you budget for a day to remove old sanitary ware and move any pipes. Assuming it is nothing major plus a day to refit. So 2 x dayrate.
Should be alot less time if you prep everything for him and have it stripped before he comes.

if its an average bath,sink and pan with replacement shower all in same position generally anything from 400 to 600 here

I quoted a refit for someone who asked on the forum a while back, plumber quoted £900 due to it being a special bath, Vanity unit and Glass panel shower screen etc...same suite to be refitted later.

I would be looking at 400 to 500 Mark, materials will cost up to 80 quid

Another forum success?

Sometimes nice to meet someone new and bounce new ideas around
Also nice when the plumber and tiler work in tandem, how many times does the plumber just want to be in and out and stuf the tiler!

fit bath, basin, pan + bide, shower valve, radiator cost 800-1000 in London, I know pimlico plumbers charge something like 80 quit per hour

my plumber charges between 400-600 too, although it does depend on whats involved.

i would definately get john in a dave recommended...learn and earn and make a very useful contact/future friend/tutor

Well I spoke to John ( faithhealer) about the plumbing and a few plasters to make the walls good then put my quote in.

I'm happy to say our quote was accepted

They didn't get any other quotes as they said they liked me and my attitude and the fact I spent time with them to explain what everything does and why (adhesives, tanking, grouts)

John I will give you a call tomorrow to get your available dates

Thanks for your help and I look forward to working with you
