Talk about Rip Off prices!

RE: Talk about Rip Off prices!
I'm currently going through a similar exercise at my GF's, stripping out the entire (family) bathroom, including all plumbing, lighting and rotten floorboards.

First you do not need marine ply for the floor, you want Grade P5 moisture resistant T&G Chipboard.

For the shower; bath; sink; toilet, radiator/towel rail and a range of fitted bathroom furniture, we are using http://www.betterbathrooms.com and that all comes in at around £1K and it's all good stuff, all the furniture is supplied rigid, none of this flat pack stuff.

Tiles are coming from a local tile centre (national chain) - not sure on cost yet, but not likely to be more than a couple of hundred.

Flooring is luxury vinyl tiles (they are actually planks) and cost less than £200, plus another £100.00 for fitting.

For the plumbing work; fitting all the furniture; replacing the floor boards; fitting the wall tiles etc, we have been quoted £1,200.00 by a local plumber. I will strip out the old tiles, flooring and anything else I can before he comes.

And another £200.00 for the electrician for supplying and fitting new down lighters.
