A bathroom is the room that sells a house and the room that ruins one when it's done badly. Proper bathroom fitting is a trade in its own right — plumbing, tiling, waterproofing and Part P electrics all have to come together.

We match you with bathroom specialists who quote fixed prices for the full job — rip-out, plumbing, tiling and finish — with honest timelines and no 'oh, that's extra' surprises.

Common causes

  • Old suites with failing seals, taps and cisterns
  • Water damage and mould behind tired silicone and grout
  • Buying a house with a bathroom from 1995
  • Changing needs — walk-in showers, accessibility, family bathrooms

What's involved

1

Rip-out and disposal of the old suite, including safe waste removal.

2

Plumbing: moving supplies and wastes where needed, to correct falls and standards.

3

Waterproofing and tiling: tanking, adhesive, grout — the areas you can't see matter most.

4

Fitting: suite, shower, screens, mirrors and accessories.

5

Electrics: extractor fans and lighting by Part P registered electricians where needed.

Prevention — stop it happening again

Get the spec in writing

A fixed quote with brands, model numbers and a timeline prevents every common bathroom dispute.

Don't scrimp on waterproofing

Tanking behind tiling costs a fraction of repairing water damage in the room below.

Plan the ventilation

A properly sized extractor fan is what keeps mould away long-term.

Think about the floor

Decide on flooring before the suite is fitted — fitting around a new bath is expensive.

For landlords

Landlords: your repair duties

As a landlord you must keep the property's water, heating, sanitary and drainage systems in good working order and fix them promptly when they fail. You're responsible for structural repairs, the boiler and heating system, plumbing and electrics. Tenants should report faults in writing — and you should respond fast, because a small leak left unattended becomes a big claim.

Landlords: legionella duty

Under the Health and Safety at Work Act and L8 guidance, landlords must assess and control the risk of Legionella — typically by ensuring water systems are properly maintained, flushing little-used outlets, and keeping records. Showers, dead legs and cold-water tanks are the usual hotspots. Your engineer can advise on a simple written risk assessment.
