Advice on Finishing a Bathroom - After Fitter Left
Anonymous user 28/02/2024 - 3.17 PM
Hi Hoping to get some advice and possibly for someone to help us out in our hour of need. We have paid over £3,600 for a bathroom refit (just plumber's fee - all suite, tiles and shower etc purchased separately by us) which was to include all plumbing etc etc. We were then presented with another bill for nearly £400 to pay for "all the plumbing bits". We have it written down that all plumbing was to be included! We have refused to pay for the bits as we have already paid for these - and he has now just walked off without finishing - saying pay it or I'm not coming back. We have a working toilet and a bath. However, still left is to finish putting shower controls on, fit handheld wand shower, finish silicone. Remove towel radiator and fit chrome finishing bits and then sort the waste outside for the basin (to go in to soil pipe) and fix guttering he has cut! He also installed a faulty tap, which now means the wall hung unit needs to be removed to get the faulty tap off and replaced. He also has just used normal plaster board behind the tiles in the whole of bathroom including shower (apart from tiler backer board on small section where shower valve is in the shower (wall of 2.4mx0.8, only did because I queried this - and he charged me an extra £109). Look forward to people's advice and comments. Many thanks
