Dekers Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 Help please! I'm having all sorts of grief finding someone, I need bathroom and cloakroom COMPLETELY refitted, and I mean GUTTED and start again. Walls/ceilings skimmed and retiled/painted, new flooring and complete new sanitary ware, including rads/towel rails, also new lighting! In simple terms I want to end up with completely finished/useable rooms. So far, its combinations of.....we don't do floors, we don't do electrics, we don't do plastering, rubbish disposal is down to you, etc etc I'm in Reading area. Can anyone suggest/recommend someone capable and sensibly priced. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fern01 Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 If you can clear site of all old tiles, sanitary ware etc your self, why pay craftsmens rates for the unskilled part of the work. The only problem is if the fitter fails to turn up as planned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've already had all sorts of variations of that, I want to point someone in the direction and get them to do everything, and present me with Totally finished rooms! I am busy gutting and decoration the rest of my house, its turned out to be too big a job for me, I am perfectly capable of doing the WHOLE job myself, but need help. Not someone to do half of it.

Jason_ox Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 This is my mate Deans company, he’s based in south Oxfordshire and what you describe is his speciality. His work is second to none and I can highly recommend. https://www.coombeshomeimprovements.co.uk/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will pay anyway, Its quite insulting (or at least to me and most guys i know that are in a trade) when a customer says i just want you to do X Y Z etc especially if they dot and dab boards themselves and want you to tile to it and the board is as straight as a politicians expsnese claims Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Konnie Posted July 26, 2018 Report Share Posted July 26, 2018 Look in your area for a company that does/has the council contracts, they do kitchens & bathrooms even if they don't do all work themselves they have the contractors to hand that do. Worth a look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
