Bathroom Installation
We design your bathroom and fit it end to end, from first-fix plumbing through to the final seal around the tiles. It's what we're best known for, and we treat every home like it's our own while we're in it.
Everything under one roof for your bathroom
From a full family bathroom redesign to a compact wet room, we cover the whole job so you're not juggling separate trades.
Full Bathroom Design & Fit
We plan the layout with you, then handle every stage of the build from strip-out to finishing touches.
Wet Rooms
Level-access wet rooms with proper waterproofing and falls built in to keep water where it should be.
En-suites
Making the most of a smaller footprint without cutting corners on layout or finish.
Accessible Bathrooms
Practical, dignified bathroom adaptations for easier day-to-day use.
A bathroom that's designed properly, not just fitted
Most bathroom companies either sell you the suite or they fit it, rarely both well. We do both. We start by sitting down with you to work out a layout that actually suits your space and how you use it, then carry that plan through every stage of the build ourselves.
That matters because a bathroom is really a small, high-stakes plumbing job wearing nice tiles. Get the waterproofing wrong, or rush the first-fix pipework, and problems show up months later behind a wall you've just finished. We'd rather take the time to get it right the first time.
A bathroom is only as good as the work you can't see once it's tiled over.
Our process generally runs in stages: strip-out and preparation, first-fix plumbing (and electrics where needed, carried out by a qualified electrician), waterproofing (tanking) in shower and bath areas, tiling, then second-fix, where we fit the sanitaryware, connect everything up, and seal the joints properly. Nothing gets tiled over until the waterproofing has had the time it needs to cure.
More information
What's usually included
- Design and layout planning before any work starts
- Removal of old fixtures, tiles and finishes
- Updated water supply and drainage for the new layout
- Waterproofing in wet zones before tiling
- Tiling and other wall or floor finishes
- Fitting sanitaryware, taps, showers and accessories, with joints sealed
Hidden problems are the thing most homeowners worry about, and fairly so. Old pipework, damp behind existing tiles, or wiring that doesn't meet current standards can all add time to a job. We flag these early where possible rather than letting them surface halfway through, and we're upfront about what any changes mean for cost and timescale.
We are based in Woodingdean and cover Brighton, Hove, Worthing, Lewes, Shoreham-by-Sea, Haywards Heath, Seaford, Burgess Hill and surrounding Sussex towns. Whether it's a period terrace in Hove or a newer build out towards Haywards Heath, the same approach applies: proper preparation, correct sequencing, and a finish that's left clean and tidy.
Tidy site, proper sequencing, no shortcuts on the parts you can't see.
