Hello All, I'm in desperate need of a contractor/building company to complete some works on our bathroom.
My husband decided to rip out the old one and we are now left with an empty room and no-one to install the new furniture or do the tiling!
I've had a look on the forum and have tried to contact the numbers suggested, ie British Handyman - he hung up and switched off his phone. Merritdubai will not answer the phone or reply to my e-mails. Jim Will Fix It can't recommend anyone as they are having trouble finding a reliable contractor themselves.
I'm in a bit of a desperate situation as my in-laws and grand-in-laws are all coming to stay in 2 weeks time and there will be 7 of us all trying to use 1 bathroom!
Any suggestions or if anyone knows anyone who can tile and plumb who is at a loose end over the next couple of weeks can help me out, greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Try Dynamic 043 380 310 - my LL owns over 60 villas and he uses this company for maintenance. I called them for our move in - needed light fittings, connecting dishwashers etc, hanging curtains and shelves - and he sent an electrician, a plumber and a carpenter - each person had their specialty. They don't let a plumber do a carpenter's job... this is what my LL likes because then you get a better job done, and eveyrthing is therefore easier to maintain. Good luck!!!

as I've already said in different thread I used TOOL TIME. I didn't know they can carry our these kind of jobs, I was looking for sub contractors and friend of mine told me about them: it seems they made very big jobs in her villa and she was very happy! the cheapest quote between 3, very good job in short period....still perfect and everybody likes! After that I've signed also maintenance contract with them. now there is a new management from Italy, and also many staff are new call 800 88 , they will make inspection , give the quotation then you can decide.

Hi, thanks desertprincess. However, the rules don't allow me to post my e-mail address on here. How can I give you my contact details?
