Is he supplying the suite, tiles etc at that money? You could likely make some savings there.

Ask him if he’d be prepared to work on a day rate and take some of the labour off him by taking all the old tiles off etc.

Thanks, it is indeed a price for supplying all materials and disposing of old ones etc.

After discussing today it does seem there's room for improvement but a discussion with my partner has concluded we are just going to leave it for now. The existing bathroom works fine and the improvement that a refurbishment would bring seems disproportionate to the cost, even if that cost is reduced from where the quotes are at.

I'm predicting now that if I haven't managed to move house in the interim, I'll be back here talking about doing the bathroom after all in 6-9 months :)

I spent ten years with this position in my old flat. The improvement of a pretty functional bathroom was never enough to justify the cost and disruption
