Cloakroom WC fit-out in Ilfracombe, South West. Stripped to brickwork, new soil pipe routing, walk-in shower with linear drain. Worked out at ยฃ11680 over 12 days. Insurance copy of the test certificate arrived without me having to chase. Tile grout still bright white after a winter of use.

Four months in and the underfloor heating is the standout - no cold tile shock first thing. Replaced one floor tile that had a manufacturing flaw - no quibble at all. Booked them in for the loft en-suite next year already.
