Master en-suite remodel in Lowestoft, Eastern. Rainhead and handset diverter on a thermostatic valve, matt-black brassware throughout. Quote was ยฃ9725, no surprise extras at the end. Snagging list cleared in two visits, none of the half-jobs we had with the last lot. Property survey valued the work at +ยฃ15k.

Used BestBuilders to find a bathroom fitter near Lowestoft. Three itemised breakdowns landed by Friday, mid-tier quote won on the optional-extras line being honest. Fitted the new WC frame first so the cistern position was confirmed before tiling. Recommended to my brother in Lowestoft too.

Two winters later, the walk-in tray drains so well there is never a puddle by the door. Returned to silicone the bath edge after one settling crack appeared at month 5. Worth the spend twice over.
