Jack-and-Jill shared bathroom in Swansea, South Wales. Tanked the wet area properly, large-format porcelain tiles, frameless glass screen. Job done for ยฃ9230 over a fortnight. NICEIC Part P signed off the new lighting circuit and shaver socket. Cleanest job we have had in this house in years.

Used BestBuilders to find a bathroom fitter near Swansea. Three site visits in one week, all quotes by the end of it, went with the highest-rated reviewer rather than the cheapest quote. Sub-trades all turned up on time, the lead fitter coordinated end to end. Three months on, still nothing to fault.

Nine months in and the thermostatic shower keeps temperature rock-solid even when the kitchen tap is running. Came back on month three to silicone-check, no charge. EPC went up one band thanks to the new heated towel rail being on a timer.
