Project:
Move bathroom upstairs in to the corner of a bedroom. Wall off new bathroom. Convert downstairs bathroom to dining room.
Issues:
How on earth do you get a good builder to do this as we have not had a good response so far. One gave quotes for bits he wanted to do and was not interested in the rest. The other could not get out of the pub to quote!
To top this off I have just found out there are no earths on the lighting circuit and the local sparky want £2000 to correct this.
Now I am no DIY man but heres the question -
Surely there is a reasonably easy (not £2k) way to sort the Earth problem??
The builder will do drains and stench pipe for £1300, so is it easy to put up a stud wall and build a bathroom. If I get a plumber in to put in a combi boiler and remove the hot water tank - how much will I be looking at?
Thanks.
