Here you can look at a small selection of recent work: I have included the cost of labour for each job to give some idea of how much bathrooms are these days. These are just a few of the hundreds I have done over the last twenty years.
This shower room renovation was for an older lady in Chippenham included lowering the height of the shower cubicle for easier access. All pipework (which was on show) is now hidden.
Two walls had new plasterboard and all walls and the ceiling were skimmed with new plaster. At the same time all of the pipework was chased into the walls, the two new boarded walls and the ceiling were plaster skimmed.
The chipboard floor was replaced with new plywood.
After tiling of the floor and walls a new WC and cistern were put in along with a new vanity basin and tap, new shower tray and glass shower enclosure.
Finally, I also painted the walls and the ceiling to complete the job.
The job took four weeks, with a cost of £5,900.
This bathroom remodel for an older lady in Chippenham included changing her bath to a walk-in shower.
As the strip-out started it soon became obvious that there had been leaks around the bath for some time. As a result two walls needed new plasterboard and some of the floor needed to be replaced too. At the same time all of the pipework was chased into the walls, the two new boarded walls and the ceiling were plaster skimmed.
After tiling a new WC and cistern were put in along with a new vanity basin and tap, new shower tray and glass shower enclosure.
Finally, I also painted the walls and the ceiling to complete the job.
The job took three weeks, with the costs in this case being withheld for privacy.
This bathroom remodel in a Warminster house added a walk-in shower.
The job included strip-out, all tiling, new toilet, new vanity basin in grey (looks nice), modified drain, glass panel to the floor and a wall-mounted seat.
The job took three weeks with a labour cost of £4,500.
This job was a little different than a run of the mill bathroom remodel.
After stripping-out the old bathroom it was immediately obvious that the floor neede reinforcing. Once done , the bath needed to go in before I could use my carpentry skills to build a bespoke cupboard. A small false wall was also made to hide the basin pipework (which looks great!, btw).
The tiling on this one took a long time to do. Each of those small tiles needed to be cut by hand and boy were they tricky, but still I got there in the end and the 35 year old couple are very happy with the result.
I think that the customer made some great choices with their brassware (taps, towel radiator, toilet holder) and the overall effect is to lighten up and completely change the look of a fairly small bathroom.
New electrics in the bathroom were arranged and in total the job took four weeks, with labour and misc materials cost of £7500
