Dolphin Bathrooms - www.dolphinbathrooms.com Review

Good Points
Fitters were very good.

Bad Points
Feel the inial design options might have been better, initially only one option was explained and that was on trying to give us more space, but our bathroom wasn't that bad!

General Comments
We decided to go for the half price sale offer on the Dolphin Special Care Bathrooms. Designer came round and spent a good while with all the usual patter etc. Came up with a design that was OK and would be a bit of a change from our bathroom as was. We had a large bath and bit of wasted space, as we use the shower in it more than anything, but still wanted to have a bath option. He moved the sink into the corner at the end of the bath and everthing seemed fine, then asks for the desposit. Thought this was a no obligation quote! However, we decided to go ahead with it. Contact from Dolphin re surveryor to come round and do the planning for the work etc. That was fine, We hadn't realised that we would be having a gravity fed shower and pump would be fitted to give better output (we hadn't had any problems with our old one!) Having had problems with our central heating and water not heating problems, we waited until that seemed to be up and running, took delivery of our bathroom and fitters arrived (foreign speaking, but not a problem, there work was very good). Our bathroom completed and we seemed happy with it, but on the first use of the shower, the water flow keeps stop/starting. We have all used it and all had the same problems. Dolphin phoned this morning to ask how installation etc had gone and we mentioned this, but am still waiting for them to get back to me. On reflection I feel that intiial design could have been done better, the shower is a lot more open ended than we thought and water splashes on to the floor and can hit the sink panel and run down the side. Also feel the quality of the bath panel is very flimsy. I have already managed to mark the bath having dropped something it!
