    Trace and fix shower leak
    Kevin visited quickly and located the shower leak. He explained a number of options for us to consider with a rough cost guide for each. In the end we decided on a temporary fix which Kevin carried out promptly. We aim to contact Kevin later in the year for re-fit of the shower cubicle......if he can fit us in! Definitely recommend him. Very thorough.

    New en suite and shower

    Kevin provided good advice on how we could change our en suite with shower. He is a craftsman and the standard of his work was excellent. He always left the house tidy and kept us informed what he was doing and when he would complete the work. He helped us with the design with lots of good advice and the units/ fittings used were of the highest quality. We were so impressed we also had the bathroom replaced.

    En suite
    We needed our ensuite completely renovating and after checking out Kevin's feedback, we asked him to give us a quote. I knew exactly what I wanted but before I could say anything Kevin came out with exactly what I wanted. On receiving our quote we were more than happy, especially as Kevin was able to provide a better quality of bathroom fittings and furniture than we were looking at but for pretty much the same price. He agreed a start and completion date, and also kept in touch before the job began. Once he started he kept everything clean and tidy, checking with us at each stage to make sure we were happy. The electrician he uses came and did the electrical work for us (even doing some other work outside the ensuite whilst he was there) and was quick, efficient and very friendly also issuing the electrical certificate for us. The job was completed a day ahead of schedule and to be honest looks even better than I could possibly of hoped for. I would highly recommend Kevin o any perspective clients and will use him again when I've saved up enough to get my main bathroom done. Many thanks,Kevin.

    replace shower with a bath with shower over.

    Initially I wanted to take out a corner shower and replace it with a shower / bath, but Kevin talked through the available options and managed to rearrange the bathroom so I could have the bath installed and keep the original shower too. Top quality bath and fittings. Tidy workmanship. Kevin very helpful. Highly recommended.

    Fit new bathroom
    This was to be a dream bathroom.At £2,500 for Kevin's time and material with contractors (electrician and plasterer) extra it should have been. Firstly,you need to ensure that you get a full written quote and schedule of works.What we were told and what we got were two different things. (We have shortened this as only 1,500 characters can be used. A full transcript has gone to the site.) Problems; Leak from shower (3 visits) Lights (buck passed around)Who's responsible for repairing holes in the plaster and ensuring the spotlights fit.Still waiting for repairs. Finishing touches done by ourselves- grouting and filling the gap around the extractor fan. Fan was to be an over the shower one but on Kevins instructions was replaced with a wall fan in the existing site. Decorators cork used for Kevins accident with newly plastered wall.A revisit with the right equipment was needed. Several other issues which have been discussed with Kevin and would take too much space on here. All kevin does is hold his hands up to it or blame the other contractor. On one revisit Kevin hugs my wife and says I am sorry, I would give you some money back but I spent it. Says it all.

    Answer from tradesperson:

    Right first fan. My elec went discussed lights fan etc, spoke to him he said HE WAS TOLD FAN IN WALL not above shower why did they not say so while work was being done not weeks later Lights elec put lights in left hanging through holes in bags for plaster, was plastered but he wanted to paint ceiling before lights went in place said he would do it it after made a mess of it. Yes while fitting skirting plaster cracked along edge of bead sorted, things like this can happen. Problem customer supplied all used products for job wc could not be taken out as was rotted together would have had to smash it. Some people you just can't please bent over backwards lots I need to say but not enough space daft

    Bathroom instialtion

    Kevin was fantastic from the start and performed the task of transforming my bathroom to the requirements I wanted! Very reasonably priced and beat other high streets on quality. I left kev and his team in my house whilst I was at work with no issues at all, he kept in regular contact the whole time! Defiantly a positive recommendation

    Bathroom refurbishment

    Our old bathroom was in need for a total refurbishment and we took Kevin on based on feedback as well as our own intuition. We were looking for a contemporary design and whilst we had our own ideas, Kevin also had some good recommendations and looking back we are glad we listened to his suggestions. The new bathroom has worked out really well and we are very happy with the results. Kevin had to remove and take the old bathroom out, start all over again and basically start from scratch. Kevin touched base regularly with us with regards to the progress and worked very tidy which makes all the difference if one gets home in the evening. Kevin designed the way that the bath features within the bathroom and also helped us out in organising all the materials and his advice made quite some difference in a very positive way. He took the job on and finished within the time he said and also for the price we agreed. The new bathroom has now been up and running for about 10 days and it looks really good. Kevin, as you will no doubt read this, we do owe you an apple pie as promised....so you do have to come back to do the downstairs loo and we will get that organised! F&M

    To replace a bathroom suite

    Kevin did a fantastic job of replacing a bathroom suite in my house which is now rented out. I never actually met Kevin, everything was conducted from a distance of 160 miles! He was always easy to contact, the bathroom was fitted on the date specified and within the time frame given. It also came in exactly on budget. I have just been to see the completed work and am very satisfied with the quality. I would have no hesitation in recommending Kevin's work to family and friends.

    New bathroom suite inc. Tiling / Decorating.

    Following the reviews on here, we hired Kevin for our bathroom refit. The reviews were important, as 6 yrs ago we had many tradesmen in our home to build an extension. In the main they were great, but we had problems with one, so it was important to get someone trusted, which we found in Kevin. After we invited Kevin to quote, he answered quickly and visited us the same weekend. Our bathroom was pokey, but with Kevin's vision and experience, it has been completely transformed. Kevin advised on products of higher quality than B&Q but comparable cost. I am so glad we listened, as were delighted with the result. We were given a detailed quote, which allowed us to budget confidently. When the work was complete, we paid exactly what we had been originally quoted. It was reassuring to have Kevin managing all aspects of the work. We literally handed the job over to him and he organised everything from removal of the old suite to bringing in an electrician to fit the new lights and fan. Each day we knew when to expect Kevin, and we were kept informed every step of the way. I'm over the moon with my new bathroom, and the care and attention given by Kevin along the way. I'd highly recommend Kevin to anyone in the market for a new bathroom. Thanks very much - very happy customers!

    Instalation of new shower and tiling of walls & floor

    After posting our job on the site Kevin was quick to respond and offer a consultation. He came to our house when it was convenient for us (as both work full time) and gave us a quote. As we had no experience in renovating rooms, He offered us valuable advice on how to make the most of a small room. From that initial consultation we decided that we would hire him to replace our bathroom. Kevin was prompt, arrived when he stated he would and also kept us informed of what he had planned for that day. He is very tidy and respectful of his surrounding, dust sheets were laid up the stairs, right up to the bathroom, and no mess was left at the end of the day, When the old bathroom was removed, it was taken away the same day along with all rubbish. As he was working on the bathroom if he came across any problems , before he did anything he consulted with us first and advised us of the best solutions. This did not affect the price quoted in the initial meeting. Kevin is a great guy, he works to a very high standard and who clearly takes pride in what he does. We are extremely pleased with our new bathroom. I would recommend Templer Bathrooms to anyone and will be keeping his number for the next time we need work doing in the house. Thank you Kev, everything was much appreciated. P.S He really, really likes peach melba's... just a heads up :0)
