But overall, I would recommend Alchemy and definitely consider using them again.
"Nick's team, led by Craig, were friendly, reliable and great company to have around. There were some minor challenges to overcome, mainly due to the small size of our rooms, and they… actively involved us in the decision making all the way. The electrician and plumbers were again superb, and turned up when they said they would.
We are very happy with the end result, and the main bathroom was finished in just over a week. We would have had the whole job done in that timeframe, but the delay was due to a cabinet we wanted being on back-order - even then it was fitted & finished within the original 2 week timeframe.
I would heartily recommend Alchemy for your bathroom reno, and I would have no hesitation calling on them again in the future.
We priced four providers, and Alchemy were competitive. Nick was clear about when they could complete the work, and his timelines were… accurate. His team were very personable, prompt and careful on-site. Communication was always prompt, with Nick operating as the touchpoint and managing the project.
The transformation from before to after was stunning, and we could not be happier with the end result. Very highly recommend Nick and his team at Alchemy.

mirrors set for 2 metre giants
leaking pipes -that weren't screwed in properly
shower doors that didn't open because the vanity unit was placed too close to the door
leaking showers from pipes that weren't properly installed, leaking showers because they felt it was not necessary to silicon the edges
fans located in shower at ear height with associated hole in the shower wall
did I mention the pipes that now… sprung a leak again
only redeeming feature was that as each calamity was pointed out they did come and repair the problems.
Nick is a nice affable scotsman
project management was Ok though there were times no one came for days obviously doing other jobs. but miraculously still finished more or less on time.
very prompt with the billing, with followup phone calls a day later.
very tidy and cleaned up after themselves each day which was a bonus.
Scores really well with tidy and generally timely finish.
however you do wonder what drives their decision making as they install the different components on the bathrooms
Would I use them again? Im not sure. If I want some entertainment on dumb they would be ideal."
