The million dollar question? (Most profitable work)

Bathrooms can be a good earner however many many builders and jobbers jump in on them.
That knocks the rate down imho.

I thought you'd stopped doing bathrooms John?
I do one after the other all year, mostly from existing customers local to me or their friends, then an evening/on my way home job.

Really ? What are you guys charging and are you going to do the whole lot alone? What is covered in the price you give to the customers? Which materials

Yep dont do them anymore , but with the time they take ( done properly) they pay the best IMO .

Some people look at bathrooms like kitchens and will pay thousands for a pro job . Not everyone can do them to the required standard though.

Don’t get that to be fair. How much money are you guys charging for a standard bathroom refurbishment and are you doing them alone? Don’t think it’s worth spending 10-12 days for a bathroom refurbishment

Right. Still don’t think it’s worth the money. Tiling is a hard and not great job to be honest. It also has to be all spot on otherwise you end up having trouble
