Hello forum,

As you all know, bathrooms are always quite expensive. The tiling alone can be very costly. I already have a quote here, and it really surprised me.

Are there any alternatives? It seems like it might be possible to do it yourself. I would be very grateful for any advice.

Best regards

Being able to read carefully gives you a clear advantage. The link you posted clearly shows that you must buy the entire service. There is no option to purchase prefabricated walls and install them yourself; if that were possible, the provider could have saved the costs of a design patent or license...

Besides, "expensive" is always relative; are you building new or renovating an older property?

Kind regards

tough decision

I see, that makes it even more important to be careful. I was hoping to be able to do some of the work myself. It’s my parents’ old house, and it definitely needs some renovations. The problem is that they are getting older and can no longer get into the bathtub without difficulty, etc.
