    Hi,

    I received a quote to put a toilet and sink under our stairs but thought the price was unreasonable. Currently this is just a junk store room. I want to convert to with a small basin and toilet, tiled half way up. To make the room big enough it will require moving the door from the hall to the kithchen back approx 18" into the kitchen. Living in a typical 3 bed semi on southside Dublin. Would anyone have any idea what price approx I should be paying and maybe recommend someone please?

    Many thanks

    Very difficult to say without a site inspection. There are a number of factors that would effect price, heres just afew:-
    • Connection to existing sewer pipe - distance involved.
    • Cost to excavate floor, lay sewer pipe and make good floor.
    • Cost of new stud wall, door including plastering.
    • Cost of extractor vent - distace to external wall / direction of ceiling joists.
    • Cost to make good ceiling.
    • Excavate under external wall, support structure and make good.
    • Cost of providing hot & cold water supply.
    • Cost of white furniture.
    I'm sure others will add to this list. I'd advise you to get at least 3 quotes from 3 reputable Builders. This will give you an idea of the going rate in your local area.
