Bathroom Installation in Swindon

A new family bathroom, designed around your space and fitted by one team, usually in 8 to 12 working days. Fixed written price, one project manager, no subcontractors.

A bathroom is a small room with a lot going on. Water, drainage, electrics, ventilation and tiling all have to come together within a few square metres, in a few days, while the family carries on living around the work. It is the coordination that makes or breaks a bathroom, and it is why we never hand any part of it to a subcontractor.

What’s included in a full bathroom installation

  • Design visit. We measure, check the soil stack, water pressure and boiler type, and talk about how the room is used. You get a layout plan and 3D visual.
  • Strip-out. Old suite, tiles and flooring removed and taken away. Pipework capped safely.
  • Plumbing. New supply and waste pipework, valves, a thermostatic shower and connections to your boiler or cylinder.
  • Electrics. Extractor fan, lighting, shaver points, illuminated mirrors and underfloor heating, installed and certified by our NICEIC-registered electrician.
  • Boarding and waterproofing. Cement or foam boards in wet areas, with tanking behind showers and baths.
  • Tiling. Walls and floors laid by our own tiler. See our tiling service for the details that make the difference.
  • Fitting. Bath, shower, toilet, basin, furniture, towel rail, screens and accessories.
  • Finishing. Silicone, grout sealing, painting if included, a full clean and a walk-round with you.

Getting the layout right

Most Swindon family bathrooms are between 4 and 6 square metres. In that space, small decisions make a big difference:

  • A shower bath or a bath with a fixed screen keeps a bath for the children and gives the adults a proper shower.
  • A wall-hung vanity shows more floor, which makes the room feel bigger and is easier to clean.
  • Concealed cisterns behind a tiled stud wall give you a useful shelf and a cleaner look.
  • Moving the door or swapping it for an outward-opening one can free up a whole wall.
  • Recessed niches in the shower area replace those wobbly corner caddies.

We show you the options in 3D, so you can see how much space each one gives you before you decide.

How long it takes

A typical eight to twelve-day bathroom installation follows a set order: strip-out, first-fix plumbing and electrics, boarding and tanking, tiling, then fitting and finishing. Our bathroom installation timeline walks through it week by week.

If it is your only bathroom, we plan around that: the toilet is reconnected as quickly as possible and we tell you in advance which day the water will be off.

FAQs

Bathroom installation: your questions

All FAQs

How long does a bathroom installation take?

Most family bathrooms take eight to twelve working days. Our week-by-week bathroom timeline shows what happens on each day.

Will I be without a toilet?

Usually for no more than a day if it is your only bathroom. We plan the work to reconnect the toilet as quickly as possible, often at the end of the first day.

Can I keep my bath and replace everything else?

Yes, if the bath is in good condition. Many customers keep a good cast-iron or steel bath and refit it with new taps and a new panel.

Do you deal with damp or rotten floors?

Yes. Old leaks under baths and toilets are common. If we find damage, we show you photos, agree the repair cost in writing and then fix it properly with new boards or joists.

Can you move the toilet or bath to a different wall?

Usually. Moving the toilet depends on the soil pipe route; we check this at the design visit and explain any limits.

Do you supply the bathroom suite?

We can supply everything, which keeps the guarantee simple. If you have already bought items, we can fit those too after checking them before fitting day.
