Price for entire bathroom. Is it a reasonable price?

[Raccus]

Hi, i recently completely re-did an upstairs bathroom. Total I charged for all work was around £3800. Checking in to see if you think this is a reasonable price.

Job included:
-complete gutting of old bathroom, removal of bath, sink, toilet, and about 6msq of old wall tiles and overboarding this 6msq wall with backer board.
-Lifting floor boards and running new water feeds (different places) for sink, bath, shower (new), toilet &radiator, as well as drainage pipework for each of these.
-Levelling floor, overboarding, installing underfloor heating and then tiling.
-Building stud wall 1m w x 2.4m high, 20cm deep to house water feeds and shower valve for shower, including two recesses about 1 ft sq.
-tiling all walls of bathroom floor to ceiling about 22msq
-fitting all new sink, bath, shower, toilet and radiator & extractor fan.

You may ask how long it took, but its difficult to rate in time, as Im not the fastest worker & I make sure everything is perfect, so thats why rather want an idea of price for the job please?

Pricing is not usually discussed in an open forum, and members should not reply with their estimates or quotes.
Prices can, and are, dictated by many factors, one of them would geographical location. (That’s one reason members are not allowed to post in pricing threads) I see youre from the uk 😁
Yours is slightly different however, and I feel members giving an opinion on whether the figure mentioned is reasonable one or not, could be allowed.
If I’m wrong then you’ll hear about my body floating in the Thames. 🤣

Personally, I think they robbed you!

Personally I don't like these as it doesn't matter what you charged as it should of been agreed in writing before you started , also any variations should also been agreed in writing , £5 or £50000 makes no odds , I presume their is a dispute , also you have not said is that just Labour or are their materials .

Price is the price...
As long as everything is written down and any extras agreed before work starts, then it is what it is...
If you plough on with out any written agreement in place, then you hold yourself open to all sorts of disputes when finished..

Is this for labour only ? If so I would guess 15 -19 days work making it anything from £250 - £200 a day if you completed it within this time scale then its reasonable you made wages but remember you are a business you need to make wages plus a percentage of profit to cover working expenses, and grow your business.

Sorry for delay to answer, was away for a few days. Apologies, didnt know the rule about pricing threads.

Thanks for comments so far. No its not a problem, and yes this is for labour only ie not including materials, but no mark up made on materials, they were supplied. Still learning to price, so just trying to get an idea if I'm in the right ball park, or under or over charging.

I work on my own and took me about 40 days if counting 8 hour days. Like I said a bit slow, there were a few complications, but I'd rather do it right than fast. Price is for job.

 

[Wayne Brown]

Wow 40 days you underpriced the job for sure keep doing this and you will be out of business very quickly any pictures of the job ? Kop

It’s not overpriced, £3800 is good money for labour only, it’s just taken far too long to install.
For full refits you should be looking at 10ish days, Wetrooms up to 15 days working on your own.
Never give materials at cost either.

Underpriced.

Still not allowed to edit 🙁

 

[Bopster]

40 days! Is that a typo?
As Boggs said, I allow up to 10 man days for a full refit on my own.
Price is fine, though you must have markup on supply items
