Cost Of Changing From Squatting To Sitting Toilet Bowl

Recommended Posts

We have called a few places about changing the squatting toilet bowl in our 3-rm flat to a sitting one. Two quotes are about $1k, and the 3rd one from a company called "A-class services" (http://sg.88db.com/sg/Services/Post_Detail.page/home_services/painting_renovation/?PostID=415756) is $650 if they only re-tile the step up but not the rest of the bathroom floor. $800 includes tiling the rest of the bathroom floor, and both prices include the cost of the toilet bowl.

Has anyone here used their services before? Are they reliable? Is the $1k quote more usual for this kind of work?

Any advice greatly appreciated.

Call your Town Council for recommended contractors. they have a list of recommended ones. The prices are not cut throat type, coz they are monitored by Town councils.

Can we skip the 2nd step - 'hack common toilet floor tiles and supply install and relay new floor tiles (include water proof)'?

The toilet was upgraded around 3 years ago, floor tiles & waterproof is still in good condition.

By the way, could you send me your contractor's phone num?

Cheers,

Michele

Under what situation will new tiles be required for replacement?

Currently, the toilet tiles are in quite a good condition.

By the way, if the price same for residential and commercial unit?

Thanks!
