Well the new quote is in.....

The quote is just for the labour part...we have to suppy the fittings etc

$5700!!! Which I think is great and I really liked this builder/plumber - he seems more professional and aligned to what I want.

So thats $3000 less than the other "all inclusive"

I "wagged" school today....cough cough...don't I sound sick to you and went to a bathroom place and tile place and figured about $2k max so far for
- bath/shower
- toilet
- vanity (and the vanity was exy - can save $ here)
- taps
- wall and floor tiles

Still need
- shower screen
- new window

So will be fairly close in $$ terms but I really like this second guy...fingers crossed hubby thinks the same!

Thanks for all the advice...keep it coming...i can't wait to post my new bathroom pics in the gallery!
