Im (hopefully) getting a plumber in to do some work in the ensuite bathroom like a bigger shower, shower doors and moving a sink and radiator. He has quoted me €2000 for this. Does this seem reasonable? Also i was thinking of getting new tap shower and draining board fittings for the kitchen and bathrooms. Ill be buying all these myself but does anyone have an idea what i could expect to pay for a plumber to install these. It seems to be a nightmare getting a plumber out for a quote...Have rang 4 plumbers and only one showed up and he was vague about exactly what it will look like(ensuite) and tole me to contact him two weeks or so before were ready to start the job. He also said we would be better off doing this sooner rather than later as the cost of labour and materials(he's supposed to be getting the shower tray,doors,a few tiles) goes up by about 25% every 3 months! Any help on this would be great!
p.s im living in Co. Kildare -Athy
Has the plumber quoted you for the following ? :
Removal of old shower tray
Bedding down of new tray
Moving the old doors and fitting an extension to allow for the increased size of tray (not a plumbers job)
If you have cement floors, lifting of tiles, then kangoing of said floor to get pipes to new sink position, otherwise lifting floor boards and doing same (not a plumbers job)
Fitting sink to the wall and attaching taps
Boring through outer wall if there is a problem with draining new sink position, (unlikely).
Recementing and leveling of kangoed floor (not a plumbers job)
Tiling floor and putting new tiles on the wall if necessary (not a plumber job)
Does extending the pipes for the rad's new position involve kangoing the floor also?
