Default Ballpark cost of basic new bathroom?

Are there any people who can give me the ballpark cost of getting the
likes of MFI, BnQ, or Homebase to put in a new bathroom? (New bath
with shower-doors, toilet, bidet, basin, tiling and flooring.)


About 500% more expensive than getting someone proper to do it.


Nothing fancy.


Except the price, and the multitude of small print you will agree to prior
to them fiting it, which of course removes all libility from them and their
contractors.


I just need a very rough idea very quickly of how many £1000s it costs
at the moment. Their lines are all engaged and the online forms
don't result in any figures.

The big chains pay peanuts and use people who are unable to get work of
their own, IE, if you were a high quality bathroom fitter, would you
advertise in the local press and get local work and make good money, or
would you work for peanuts for one of the chains and travel all over the
country?
