I have a small bathroom 1.8m x 1.8 and have just bought a new bathroom suite and I think it might be avisable to get a proffessional to fit it.

There is no way that you can get a sound price for work to be done with out the person going to do the work can see it.

I can answer the tiling bit as my husband is a tiler. He charges anywhere from £10.00 per metre and up depending on what cuts he makes etc. I know he moans about bathrooms coz of the toilet shape etc but hey that's what the pros get paid for eh. Do get a few quotes before you decide and make sure its a firm that has a good reputation there's a lot of cowboys out there! x

Your best bet is to go for personal recommendation. Ask around, for people who have had similar work done, speak to your friends and neighbours. See if you can see any 'workmen's' vans outside properties in your area, speak to the guys, ask to see work they have done.
Otherwise, go through the yellow pages, for fitters, local papers etc. Get two or three people in to give you quotes, and then decide from that. Again, ask them if you can see work they have done.
As you have the suite already,, you may even be able to break the job down into smaller chunks, ie get a plumber to fit the bath, basin and loo, shower etc. Then get someone in to plaster walls if necessary. Then a tiler and electrician.....
Good luck!

You're smart to get a professional to fix your bathroom and the cost is as varied as their talents. Get a couple referrals from the guy you intend to hire. Check him out! You usually get what you pay for, but not all the time!

Labour at £40 an hour, 8hrs to greater healthful suite, 16hrs to tile partitions, 8 hrs to tile floor, yet another 8 for sundry portray, snagging and ending, that equals 40 hours at £40 in keeping with hour = £1600.... plus VAT in the experience that your guy is registered. enable £4 hundred for contigency (bits of pipe, sealants, screws, paint, etc.etc.) call it £2000 (plus VAT if proper)
