House with one bathroom
The toilet, sink, bath are blue in colour
Tiles are dated
We are looking to sell soon
We would probably get a workman in to do this.
My wife says retile only is quicker.
I thought that if the toilet, bath and sink are replaced (like for like, but different colour), the workman would not need to spend extra time having to cut and fit tiles around the toilet, sink bath, so ultimately there would not be a big time difference.
Does anyone have experience of this?
How long should it take to do this?
(Retile one wall above the bath and half a wall where the sink and toilet are?
Also, if we get a workman in, what price would seem reasonable for labour?
Thanks for your help and advice.

sorted byJust make it look clean and fresh.
obviously I've not seen your bathroom, o dont know how dated it looks. but thats my opinion (other opinions are available)
Last house purchase we did, they where refurbishing one of the bathrooms with it ready for sale as the bathroom was outdated and we just figured we would be ripping it out anyway so wasn't concerned. We've ended up leaving it though as it's been fine and had given it quite a clean look. They did the whole bathroom with it though. Infact it's one of the only rooms we haven't done anything too.

All sparkly clean? If not then replace them as a must, whichever way you go. (edited)
£2,500 for installation labour costs.
Approx £900 for new bath, sink, toilet, wall and floor tiles
House sold within a week of going on the market for a price which will recover the cost of the bathroom fitting.
