Frequently asked questions

How long does a full bathroom installation take?

A straightforward bathroom replacement where the layout stays the same typically takes 5–10 days. Moving drainage, installing a wet room with full tanking, or creating an en-suite from scratch can take 2–4 weeks. Always get a clear timeline in writing, especially if you only have one bathroom.

Do I need to use a separate plumber and electrician?

The best bathroom fitters manage all trades themselves — either they hold the relevant qualifications or they bring in trusted subcontractors they regularly work with. This avoids the common problem of tradespeople blaming each other when issues arise. Before hiring, ask explicitly how they handle the plumbing and electrical elements.

What is a wet room and is it worth installing?

A wet room is a fully waterproofed bathroom where the shower has no tray or enclosure — the entire floor drains to a central drain. They look spectacular and are ideal for accessibility. However, proper tanking (waterproofing) is essential — poor installation leads to expensive water damage. Expect to pay more for a properly installed wet room, and only use an experienced fitter.

What suite brands should I consider?

For reliability and NI availability, brands such as Ideal Standard, Villeroy & Boch, Roca, and Grohe are well-regarded and widely serviced. Duravit and Durastyle are excellent mid-range options. Avoid very cheap imported sanitary ware — spare parts are often unavailable and quality suffers quickly in a damp environment.

Important

Ensure any electrical work (lighting, electric shower, shaver sockets) is carried out by a Part P registered electrician, and gas pipework by a Gas Safe registered engineer. A good bathroom fitter will either hold these qualifications or manage specialist subcontractors for you.
