I was once in a bathroom & kitchen showroom ordering my new kitchen about 3
years ago.

Their bathroom fitter came in into the show room and I got chatting to the
fitter having done my bathroom a few months earlier.

My bathroom cost just £1000 in materials. This included floor to ceiling
tiles on all walls, a new three piece suite, a shower, some wall units and
a new floor.

I asked him what the typical total cost was to his customers for a bathroom
refit and how long he spends on each job.

He said to me that He does one bathroom a month. He also said that the
total average cost of a bathroom refit was £8,500...... and that half this
money was for his labour.


Is that because he charges silly money for his labour, or because each one
is a long job?
