It's like asking how long is a piece of string.

No-one likes giving quotes, without major effort in working out exclt

So what can be easier is to ask for price guidance on _previous_ work.
If they did a bathroom of vaguely the right size and style, ask them how
much that one cost and what the fittings were. The fitter isn't tying
themselves into a promise of a firm quote and you probably get a more
accurate quote (assuming the style is similar) than something with a lot
of hand-waving and back-covering.
