What we check on site

Bathroom fittings and the surface behind them

Suitable bathroom accessories include towel rails, toilet-roll holders and small shelves without plumbing alterations. Fixing work needs the tile or lining, supporting material and nearby services assessed; the visible finish alone is not support.

We check a loose fitting and its mounting points before agreeing refixing, wall repair or replacement. Plumbing, waterproofing repair and a load-bearing grab rail are separate scopes. Confirm the product, supply and making good in the quote.

A loose towel rail on tiles or a bathroom shelf pulled from the wall needs the damaged fixing area assessed before reuse. Tell us about water entry or earlier repairs. Do not use the loose fitting for balance while arranging assessment.

Penetrations and waterproofing

Drilling through bathroom finishes can affect the waterproofing beneath and may encounter concealed services. Existing layers and fixing details must be assessed before penetrations are made. Refixing an accessory does not automatically include repairing a failed waterproofing system.

Towel rails are not support rails

A towel rail is intended for towels, not a person’s body weight. A grab rail needs a suitable product, placement and structural fixing assessment. An accessory that looks solid should not be assumed safe for balance or transfer support.

We coordinate the electrical, plumbing and waterproofing work. Active leaks and suspect materials are checked before demolition begins.

Service scope and quote details

Bathroom Renovations & Wet-area Repairs

A shower that leaks after repeated surface repairs

We assess the visible damage and previous work before agreeing the repair. Silicone, grout, pipework and the waterproofing layer are different possible scopes. Replacing a surface joint should not be presented as a complete wet-area repair.

Updating fixtures or renovating the whole bathroom

Tell us which fixtures and finishes you want retained. The plan identifies removal, plumbing, electrical work, substrate preparation and finishing where required. Occupied-home access and the availability of bathroom facilities need to be discussed before work starts.

What Affects the Quote?

Room size, retained fixtures, removal, substrate condition, trade work and selected finishes affect the renovation quote.

Bathroom service guide

Bathroom: Common Questions

Why does a shower still leak after new silicone?

The leak may involve plumbing, the substrate or waterproofing beneath the tiles rather than the visible joint. Assess the cause before repeating resealing or choosing a full wet-area repair.

When might shower tiles need removal for waterproofing work?

If assessment identifies a failed underlying waterproofing system or damaged substrate, access beneath the tiles may be needed. The scope must address preparation, waterproofing and reinstatement together.

Can fixtures and finishes be included in a bathroom renovation?

Yes, selected fixtures, cabinetry and accessories can be included in the agreed renovation scope. Plumbing, electrical and waterproofing tasks need the appropriately licensed or qualified people for that work.

Can drilling bathroom tiles damage waterproofing?

It can affect layers beneath the tile and may encounter services. We assess the position, supporting material and waterproofing requirements before fixing. Any membrane repair is separately scoped; do not drill to investigate the wall yourself.

Can a towel rail be used as a grab rail?

Do not assume it can support a person. Grab rails need a suitable product, placement and supporting structure assessed for that use. Tell us if you need balance or transfer support so the appropriate scope can be considered.
