Having a big building refit or refurbishment always causes some disruption. \u00a0But with a little bit of organisation it can be a really smooth process.<\/h6>\n

 <\/p>\n

When it comes to bathrooms, it’s often difficult to have them out of action, especially if you don\u2019t have any alternative facilities. \u00a0So you’ll want your refit to be carried out as smoothly as possible.<\/h6>\n

 <\/p>\n

Having chosen your ideal bathroom fittings,\u00a0you now just need to find a reliable fitter\/plumber to install it all.<\/h6>\n

 <\/p>\n

Personal Recommendation<\/b><\/h4>\n

Some people will have builders and plumbers that have regularly carried out work for them, and therefore trust the quality of their work. If you don’t have this, a personal recommendation is the next best thing.\u00a0It also helps if it\u2019s a friend doing the recommending because you can check out their work, see the finish, and ask lots of questions.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Online recommendation<\/b><\/h4>\n

If no one you know or trust can recommend a tradesman, another option is to look at online recommendations.\u00a0 There are two sites in particular where you can find rated trades people.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Mybuilder.com<\/a><\/strong> rates tradespeople on the feedback they receive.\u00a0 So anyone who hires a builder\/plumber\/electrician or other tradesperson and is really pleased with the job can comment here.\u00a0 The more recommendations a tradesperson gets, the higher their ratings and the more likely they are to be rehired.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

At Ratedpeople.com<\/a><\/strong> the system works in a similar way. \u00a0You can post a job for free and you will get up to three quotes or responses. \u00a0As with Mybuilder, previous customers rate their plumber\/bathroom fitter.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If you engage a trades person from either of these sites, you will be asked to rate them after the job.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

Remember if you are engaging a plumber, make sure they are Gas Safe registered and preferably belong to the Chartered Institute of Plumbing and Heating Engineering Association.\u00a0 This ensures you are getting the best qualified person for the job.<\/p>\n
