Default Cost of shower replacement

My brother has just had a shower replaced. *It was a bog standard Mira mixer
shower, hot water feed nearby, no new plumbing involved. *The plumber said
that the plasterboard behind was rotten, so this needed to be replaced as
well. *Basically, we're talking about a new ceramic tray, new tiling (big,
cheap, easy to cut tiles) new shower and new enclosure. *Think Ford Mondeo
and not Bugatti Veyron.

How much should this cost, as a very rough ballpark estimate? *The bill for
the work has come in at £1600 which seems a tad on the steep side to me.

Thanks

Edward


8 hours per day @ £100 per hour - so a 2 day job - sounds about right
to me,
If that includes the cost of the materials too, then he has a good
deal!
