How it works
Frequently asked questions
How much does a bathroom refurbishment cost?
The cost of a bathroom refurbishment can vary depending on the size of the space, the level of finish and the type of work involved. A simple update will naturally cost less than a full redesign with premium fittings and structural changes.
We always aim to provide clear and realistic pricing based on your requirements. Before any work begins, you will receive a detailed quote outlining exactly what is included, so there are no surprises along the way.
Typical factors that affect cost include:
- Size and layout of the bathroom
- Quality of fixtures and fittings
- Tiling and flooring choices
- Plumbing adjustments or upgrades
- Additional features such as underfloor heating or bespoke units
If you are unsure where to start, our free quote calculator is a useful way to get a rough idea of pricing before arranging a visit. From there, we can provide a more accurate quote once we have seen the space and discussed your plans in more detail.
How long does a bathroom project take?
Most standard bathroom refurbishments are completed within one to two weeks, although this can vary depending on the complexity of the project and the condition of the existing space.
We always provide a clear timeframe before starting, so you know what to expect. Our experience allows us to plan each stage carefully and keep everything running efficiently.
A typical project may include:
- Removal of the existing bathroom
- First fix plumbing and preparation
- Wall preparation and tiling
- Installation of new fixtures and fittings
- Final finishing and clean up
Because we carry out all plumbing work in-house and coordinate all other trades closely, we are able to maintain control over the schedule and avoid unnecessary delays.
We also keep you updated throughout the process, so you are never left wondering what stage the project is at or what happens next.
Do you supply the bathroom or do I need to source it?
We can work both ways depending on your preference. Some clients like us to handle everything, while others prefer to choose their own fittings and finishes.
If you would like a fully managed service, we can supply and install everything as part of your project. This helps streamline the process and ensures everything is compatible and suited to your space.
Alternatively, if you already have products in mind, we are happy to install them for you.
We can support you with:
- Advice on suitable products and layouts
- Recommendations based on experience
- Ensuring compatibility with your plumbing setup
- Guidance on quality and durability
- Helping avoid common mistakes when ordering
Our goal is to make the process as straightforward as possible, whether you want full support or just need a reliable team to carry out the installation.
Will I be without a bathroom during the work?
In most cases, yes, your bathroom will be out of use while the refurbishment is being carried out. We always aim to keep disruption to a minimum and complete the work as efficiently as possible.
Before starting, we will talk you through the timeline so you can plan ahead and make any necessary arrangements.
To help manage this, we:
- Work to a clear and structured schedule
- Keep the project moving without unnecessary delays
- Coordinate all trades to avoid downtime
- Keep the workspace tidy and organised
- Communicate regularly so you know what to expect
If you have specific concerns, such as only having one bathroom in the property, let us know and we will do our best to plan the work in a way that reduces inconvenience.
Do you handle all trades involved in the project?
Yes, we provide a fully managed service covering all trades required for your bathroom refurbishment. This means you do not need to organise or coordinate multiple contractors yourself.
We carry out all plumbing and heating work in-house and work with a trusted network of skilled trades for everything else. This ensures a consistent standard across the entire project.
Trades we typically manage include:
- Plumbing and heating
- Electrical work
- Tiling and flooring
- Carpentry and joinery
- Plastering and decorating
By managing everything under one roof, we keep the process simple, efficient and well organised. You have one point of contact throughout, and we take responsibility for making sure every part of the job is completed properly.
