    DEMOLITION & STRIP-OUT

    Removal of old sanitaryware, tiles and fittings, with the space prepared for the new bathroom.

    PLUMBING & LAYOUT CHANGES

    Moving or replacing plumbing points for showers, baths, basins, toilets and other fittings where the layout is changing.

    WATERPROOFING

    Preparation and waterproofing of wet areas before tiling to protect against leaks and moisture damage.

    WALL & FLOOR TILING

    Installation of new wall and floor tiles as part of the renovation, including preparation, grouting and finishing.

    SANITARYWARE

    Installation of showers, baths, toilets, basins, mixers and other bathroom fixtures.

    VANITIES, STORAGE & FITTINGS

    Installation of vanities, mirrors, shelving, storage and other finishing elements that complete the space.
