vs UK average
A bathroom fitter working in London typically charges £325–£540 a day (£41–£68 an hour), ex VAT — 35% above the UK average of £320 a day. London rates run 30–40% above the national picture. Higher living costs, congestion charging, ULEZ and parking all get passed into quotes, and competition from commercial and high-end residential work pulls experienced trades away from small domestic jobs.
Bathroom fitting rolls several trades into one person or a small team, which is why full renovations are priced per bathroom. The day rate applies to the fitter's time on extras, repairs and part-jobs.
