Majority of working class people live in 3-4 bed semi or detached houses. Bathrooms in such houses are not far apart in sizes from each other.

Obviously if you were to refit the bathroom in Buckingham palace, it would take a while. But let’s not be pathetic, we both know I was referring to an average size bathroom.

There is no longer a 'Working Class' in this country - apart from a few immigration slaves...the socio-economic group you are referring to is known as the 'Lower Middle Class'.

In my experience, small bathrooms can take as long or even longer to fit as larger ones. large areas of tiling / plastering / painting don't take long - it's the edges & corners that take time, plus you can't get many people working at one time in a small room.

straight away by your answer i can see you don't fit bathrooms for a living
all you know is a figure and a room nothing about how long he was told it would take
what type of tiles, square meterage, what type of shower is being fitted,
if it just a skim, downlighters is the room rcd protected or is this part of job, has their been a shower installed before or new pipework to be fitted, is it going into a hopper or a concealed stack pipe.

are mats included or is that just labour.
is it one/two men doing the lot or different trades


as the old saying go's can't see can't quote.

seco with your attitude you wouldnt even get through my front door I was merely giving the OP some usefull advice when dealing with tradesmen you cant be too carefull you know.

Tommy you' be suprised how much work's involved in a bathroom refit I would suggest when you find a plumber to do the work that you watch over his shoulder as much as possible he wont mind that you're taking a keen interest in the job, also if you think he's made a mistake dont be afraid to point it out immediately he'll thank you for it and after all if you dont tell him how will he ever know he's doing it wrong, dont be afraid to ask lots of questions like are you supposed to do it like that?,those tiles wont fall off will they? and how much longer will it take? if you follow these simple tips you and your plumber will get along fine and the job will run like clockwork. Hope this helps.

You are having a laugh. If you did that to me I would walk off the job. Find a plumber that has been recommended and then leave him alone to get on with the job FFS

Edit - I think I just bit, this has to be a wind up

attitude nothing to do with my attitude at all.

to add a bit more info, im pricing the job for a customer and I think its gonna work out to that price once they have chosen the suit they want and tiles.

paint ceiling, glossing to door,new alctrave

replacing all pipework back to the boiler as still got 22mm from old system

concealed stack

tiled floor to ceiling and floors being tiled,

standard suite from eastbrook and shower is 700x700 resin base with glass square screen with mixer shower set in wall so new pipework in stud wall for that, (the price is based on the suite costing aprox 800 with the shower) not certan what they are going for yet!

all being boxed in behind toilet and sink and tiled so no pipe work on show

new towel rail

just didnt want to give the customer the price and them to think god thats expensive but not a lot i can do about it ive priced it as cheap as i possibly can.

how many days do you plan on ?

[londonboy]

You dont need to run supplimentary bonding cables back to the consumer unit.
