vs UK average
A bathroom fitter working in Scotland typically charges £235–£390 a day (£29–£49 an hour), ex VAT — 3% below the UK average of £320 a day. The central belt sits close to the national average, while Highlands and islands work commands travel and accommodation premiums that can push effective rates well above it.
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.
