We have got a little ensuite bathroom (shower, toilet, basin) which needs re-doing. There's an old-fashioned shower cubicle which needs demolishing really and a modern type one putting in.
Anyway, a few months ago we nearly bought a load of stuff from B&Q when they had discounts on their bathroom stuff. The toilet and basin were branded 'Armitage Shanks' but I saw something on the net saying that this wasn't really Armitage Shanks stuff, but a unique-to-B&Q range of budget stuff that AS had let them brand with their name.
A plumber suggested to me that B&Q bathroom stuff was not good quality stuff and that we should look elsewhere. We never did get around to doing the little bathroom.
Is the B&Q stuff cr@p? Is there somewhere (I'm in Sheffield) which sells modern, simple designs which will fit better and have better taps and stuff? My concern with B&Q and the like is that they often include taps in with packages, but there may be no spares for them when they go wrong a few months down the line.
Expensive, isn't it, just getting a small bathroom re-done?
