Any ideas what the current daily rate is for bathroom fitters in the south.I have to have a new bath,toilet and vanity basin fitted.These will fit back where the originals came out,so minimal plumbing.

iiyama used to do this sort of work and he's only near Southampton so not that far from you? Might be worth dropping him a u2?

Going rate here £20-£25 ph or £140 - £160 per day depending on who you use.

id hesitate to employ anyone on a day rate, in case i ended up with a slacker. Fixed price for the job and then you see them work harder.
