    Does anyone know a good local builder/plasterer/electrician?

    Yep - we just had our bathroom done by David, who did a great job. I'll whisper you his number.

    Don't you dare employ him in the next fortnight though, as he's still finishing my bathroom!

    I know a really, really good plasterer who is also a qualified electrician. I think he does kitchens and bathrooms as well. His name is Mariusz - a Polish guy, and extremely hard-working. He is also very, very cheap! When we moved here in January, we used him to do painting and decorating and about a million odd jobs and he was brilliant.
    His number is 07515 821 491.
    Feel free to say Donna recommended him as he said anyone we recommended would get some sort of discount- I think he's trying to grow his business through word of mouth.
    On another note, I definitely wouldn't recommend a company called Urban Solutions. They replaced a neighbour's bathroom and the shower leaked into our kitchen below and it took them two months to fix it, and they had to come back 5 times! :-(
    Anyone else know that FLanders and Swan song - When the Gas Man Cometh?

    Thanks Donna. I'll give him a call. Roughly how much does he charge for a day's work?

    Not sure... but his quote was about 20% cheaper than the other two we got and he seemed happy to do almost any odd job you can name for about a tenner.

    We've used Mariusz (and his team) to refit our bathroom, decorate our living room, refurbish our kitchen, replace our fuse box and wire up our utility room. He's a great guy, committed to doing a great job, and with the highest integrity. I recommend him too!
