with shower-doors, toilet, bidet, basin, tiling and flooring.)
About 500% more expensive than getting someone proper to do it.

This is not my experience (of both bathrooms and kitchens).

The MFI/B&Q quotes were less than a 'professional' wanted.


That's because they use monkeys.


Well they didn't use the best guy in the book, but he was good enough. And
if you don't like it you don't give them the final cheque.


You paid by cheque?

Oh dear.......
