I am a carpet fitter by trade, but thought i'd have a go and see how I get on with my bathroom. I had never done tiling before, but lent a mates tools and off I went..

Very very smart mate. Just hope mine comes out half as good as yours and i'll be happy.
Well done ! great job...........look at the money you have saved as well. 
Yeah saved a bucket load, sourced my rad and shower from online, got the best price for both, must of looked on 10 websites before I got my shower the cheapest.
and the cost of the plasterboarding and tiling labour were nil, and Im a floorer so the flooring was next to nothing.
I had never attempted lots of what ive done in that bathroom. but the internet, research and some advice of a couple of mates helped me invaluably!
dont be scared, have a go!

My project will come in on a budget of just under 2.5k. Wouldn't even like to think how much a company would charge for the same thing. Although saying that, I might yet need someone to come in and sort it out!!
think positive mike!!!
