Who else fits bathrooms?

[Russell brown]

The majority of work I'm getting at the minute is bathrooms. Just out of interest I was wondering who else does a complete fit and who just sticks to tiles, or do you do any other trades?

Most of my work is building wetrooms, end product the tiling of it. Get a few splashbacks, hallway's, terrace's to tile but by default tiling in Norway is a wet trade enabling me to do all wet trades, don't ask... Anyhoo, fitting wood burning ovens is a wet trade as sealing into chimney is a brickies job and my boss bought a shop selling and fitting ovens a few years ago so been getting into that. thefireplace.no is our shop, nice work, just us, no plumbers electricians carpenters involved to let us down unlike the wetroom game

Everyone has has to multi trade to a certain extent in today's day and age to get by.

I stick to any plastering or tiling required mainly the latter...

I do full refits .....BUT I get the relevant trades in.
I work with a very reliable plumber .....yes there is one out there...lol
We have been working together on bathroom for 20 years now and it works well for us.
We got a decent sparky, plasterer ect to call on as well of needed...

Had a crap start to the day today!. Shower tray came out the wrong size (100mm to big) so had to spend all morning trying to find another one local. Tray fitted, pipe work for shower done, walls tanked ready for tomorrow and the floor tiled. Just hope tomorrow's better but exact do a thing to the wall tiles turn up

I don't start a job till the tiles are in the room to be tiled.
We often do the complete job and get every trade in as required, paying them on day of completion ensures a good service.
Have to admit I enjoy the occassional full job as everything seems to flow well. However when we rely on others doing the work for builders it's usually crap!
Latest pain is plumbers requiring holes drilled for radiator brackets! What's all that about - just marked the tile for him to drill - and now he's going to charge the builder for hole cutters and time.
Lady asked me to put up a toilet roll holder - told her I didn't have a drill! If it was my job I would but not for other firms.

I'm a qualified plumber and bricklayer, (don't do much of the latter nowadays though). Will do complete fits from plastering to plumbing and pretty much everything in between. To be honest Ive never really found that I can rely on other people so get on and do it myself.
