Is $2,950 to fit an ensuite bathroom (labour only) a fair price?

Project Details

I hired a bathroom fitter to install an ensuite bathroom, which started this week. The room was bare bones and required shower panel fitting and tiling. I've purchased all the materials myself. I'm very unhappy with the work so far; the shower panels are chipped and improperly fitted with a large gap, and the tiling is horrendous with inconsistent spacing, chipped tiles, and uneven cuts. The shower tray has also been scratched. I'm a single woman living alone and am nervous about confronting him. I anticipate needing to replace panels and redo much of the tiling, which will cost me an additional £1,500 for materials. I'm seeking advice on how to address these issues.
