Bathroom Fitters

[ifstar]

I am looking to get a new shower room designed and fitted - has anyone got any recommendations of companies in this area to use or to stay away from?

Thanks

Just getting one will be a feat in itself!! I kid you not, we had SEVEN of the blighters come to look at our bathroom before we could get one to take the job on!

We recently had out bathroom redone, but not changed very much, just retiled and plastered and so on, so we didn't use a company. We had an excellent tiler and a plumber/electrician who worked with him - they turned up on time, did exactly what they said they would and were wonderful. If you want their details I'll find them, but if you're getting someone to quote for it you won't need them.

I know a good one - my husband. Check out our web site for details if you have had no luck so far.

DG, I think i'll bookmark that and give it a good look when the misses brings our bathroom up again!

Got a bathroom done in my old flat last year by B&Q - major hassles - avoid.

Wangi, there are a lot of dodgy trades men out there and I'm sorry that you had experience of this. I consider myself very lucky! Married the right man for many reasons - and all of them good !

The website has just been updated.

Well, this question put a smile on my face! That aside....I am aware that this is not the appropriate place to appear to be advertising and, as I want to remain part of this forum, I can only refer you either to our website or advert in the Porty Reporter. However, as his misses, I can say he has many skills, some of which I am not allowed to mention !

Well, we started getting our kitchen fitted in February. I don't have any complaints about the fitters (John Lewis) but delays by their flooring department have prevented us finishing the kitchen (chiefly because the plinth has to be scribed to fit the floor - after the flooring is laid!).

Flooring is now scheduled to go down tomorrow, so I've taken the day off work.

Here's hoping.

I am looking for a plumber, a friend at work is looking for one urgently. She lives in Duddingston. Any help greatly appreciated!

Thanks

Hi Sandra,

I hope he can help you out!

I have always had good service from a father and son bussiness called 'UPTOWN PLUMBING' 01316722119.
Bit of a blether and often looking at extra 'problems' but have never had any cause for complaint about them.

Oh, how infuriating, Marya. Apparently the roofer who just did almost our entire street was a cowboy... Ach well.

If you need a plumber, we had a brilliant guy who turned up exactly when he said he would, did every extra job we suggested while he was around, and was generally a good laugh too. The plumber is John Parks, business name is JP Plumbing, but he does everything, really - he plastered our walls and so on too, and his mobile number is 07973 305488. He's also an electrician - we would highly recommend him, having had more than our fair share of dodgy plumbers.

Are we having a room-warming party, then, in the bathroom?!
