Compare like-for-like scopes by separating base work, specialist items and upgrades before requesting a quote.
Explore the ideas
Compare the options
- Set the brief
- List the functions the finished space must support, then assign items to base scope or upgrades.
- Compare
- Get quantities and materials described consistently across quotes. Ask who covers making good and waste removal.
- Before buying
- Set aside a contingency for survey-dependent work and price likely substitutions before choosing finishes.
Worked example
A bathroom quote combines new tile throughout with upgraded taps and a custom vanity.
Separate waterproofing-related work, tile area, fittings and vanity; compare a retained-tile option only after condition review.
How to test it
Read the exclusions back with each supplier and ask what must be purchased or arranged separately.
Apply it to this space
- Layout
- Separate shower splash from vanity and place towel storage within easy reach of the shower exit.
- Detail
- Use slip-conscious floor finishes, moisture-tolerant joinery, and even mirror lighting.
- Trade-off
- A larger shower improves comfort but reduces vanity or storage space.
- Test splash outside the shower
- Check toiletries and towels are reachable
