What are the stages of a bathroom renovation?

Stage 1: Planning

The most crucial step when it comes to getting your bathroom renovated is planning and designing what your new bathroom will look like.

During the planning phases, a professional bathroom fitters will be able to give you their professional opinion on what will be best for you and your home.

Stage 2: Building your team

When it comes to building a new bathroom, plumbers are generally the first specialists who spring to mind; however, some people prefer to contact a builder first. Even though a plumber looks after installing the plumbing system and appliances, hiring a builder is also great. This is because they can supervise the whole project and help coordinate other trades. So make sure you hire the correct tradesman to assist you in completing your job.

Stage 3: Disconnecting and Demolishing 

After everything has been planned, the dismantling of  your bathroom can begin.  Professional tradesman starts to disconnect the piping and cabling with extreme care. They also remove the shower screens and tiles from the walls and flooring as well. Our bathroom fitters have extensive expertise constructing new bathrooms and can assist with overseeing all elements of the job.

Stage 4: Installing your bathroom

The fourth phase in a bathroom renovation project is to complete the installation. This involves adding the plasterboard, tiling, grouting, and painting. This is done to the highest standard to ensure it meets your needs and requirements.

Types of Bathroom Renovations

Bathroom renovations are classified into several sorts based on the scope of the project and the homeowner's desired outcomes. The following are some typical bathroom renovations:

Cosmetic Renovation

A cosmetic renovation is a cost-effective choice that concentrates on enhancing the bathroom's appearance without altering the design or structure. This could involve replacing outdated fixtures, altering the colour palette, or adding ornamental components like a new mirror or piece of art.

Minimal Renovation

In a minimal renovation, specific aspects of the bathroom undergo upgrades such as the bathtub or shower, the tiles or countertops, or even the toilet. If the plumbing and layout of the bathroom don't need to be changed, this can be a more affordable choice.

Full Renovation

The layout of the bathroom is changed, all of the fixtures and fittings are replaced, and the plumbing and electrical systems are updated as part of a full refurbishment. Although more expensive, this type of renovation can produce a brand-new, contemporary bathroom.

Ensuite Renovation

A master bedroom's bathroom that is adjacent to it is renovated as part of an ensuite. This could entail incorporating opulent elements like a spa bath, a walk-in shower, or a double vanity.

Accessible Renovation

Making a restroom more user-friendly for those with disabilities or restricted mobility is a component of an accessible makeover. This can entail adding grab bars, a walk-in bathtub or a washbasin that is wheelchair accessible.

Bathroom renovations come in a variety of forms, including aesthetic, partial, complete, ensuite, and accessible makeovers. When deciding on the type of renovation that is best for them, homeowners should take their budget, goals, and needs into account.
