Title: Best person for MarbleBathroomLaying/plumbing/plaster&paint
Post by: sgc on October 09, 2018, 11:27:22 AM
Hi All,

Looking for someone or a team to do some Marble Laying for a bathroom, some plumbing (fitting shower heads and taps etc.) and some plastering and painting.

As always, I'd like them to be really good!

It looks like Bayram comes highly recommended (if anyone has his Whatsapp, that would be great).

Any other recommendations would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

Umit Kasim is recommended by many. Should be able to find him on fb. Would get a couple of quotes at least.

Thanks Lissa and Nicola!
Umit is very good but I he seems very busy at the moment. I am in touch with him and reached out for a quotation a few weeks ago but nothing has materialised and I haven't heard so I need to get some other quotes to try and get things done sooner rather than later  :)
Any other recommendations are greatly appreciated!
There are some very poor Marble layers, plumbers, plasterers and painters out there so the recommendations mean a lot.
The last painters I had were asked to take the fittings off (loosen the sockets, switches and light fittings) but on my return, it was painfully clear to see that they had elected to just leave it all on and paint over everything instead...madness. Countless hours were then spent over the next 7 days with a blade and wipes cleaning everything off as best we could. Very careless.

I only have Bayram's phone no, which is 0535 23902334.

I know that he won't take on any noisy renovations before the end of the season, as he may have to stop the job if the neighbours complain, which he told me when I spoke with him y'day, to book him for my friend's bathroom job.

Hi Liz,
Thank you very much - I'll give him a try and see what he can offer  :)
Looking to start in a few weeks so should be no trouble before end of season.

I have my bathroom worked a month ago, new tiles, toilet .. plastering, roof insulation.everything, I managed to get 5 or 6 offers from different people.
As Bayram was busy and his price was high I decided to find unrelated brothers of Bayram.
Managed through google translate and what ever language we could understand.
Price difference between Bayrams offer and the others for changing the bathroom entirely exclusive material was around 1500 Tl.
Bayram was going to profit only that by managing the whole work for me. Which is again not much.
I bought all materials my self.

Thanks for the responses.

I would also be interested to hear from people approximately what prices per m2 they have paid for Marble laying and plastering. It's important to know roughly what 1m2 is for these various trades to make sure quotes are in the right ball park!  :)

The price by sqm for tiling is around 25 tl pr. Sqm. But only if you have a big project, for a single bathroom lets say 20 to 25 sqm. In total walls and floor the price you should pay is between 1500-2500 tl. All depends on you being able yo make a deal.
