Bathroom Installation – What to Expect?

Are you in the planning stage of a full-blown bathroom installation? If so, the task list might seem challenging. As providers of premium bathroom installation services in London, Builders London feels that it will make it easier for you if you know what to expect. So, take a look below to get an idea of the average bathroom installation process so that you can stay prepared.

Clearing the bathroom to get it ready for the installation work

Once the design phase of the bathroom is complete, the next step is to start the installation work. For that, our installers will help you get the room ready by removing all the old fixtures. This will make sure that the new installation goes smoothly. Even you can remove all of your belongings before the installers arrive at your location. As for the existing fittings and fixtures, you can leave that to the professionals.

This step might even involve the central heating and water systems being switched off so that there is no chance of a leak. Also, be prepared for a noisy time because when the bathroom tiles, fixtures and plaster is being removed to make way for new installations, things might become noisy. However, our installers always attempt to cause as little disruption as possible.

Checking all the electrics to ensure that it meets the demand

Before we add any fixture to the bathroom, our electricians check if the electrics are doing their job. This means that electricity should reach all the right places in your bathroom. For instance, lighting, shower and other electrical requirements. If you remodelling your bathroom, but not changing the position of the fixtures, this might not be required. However, it is always good to let the electrician carry out the necessary checks so that there are no complications after all the fixtures have been fitted.

The plumbing and the walls

Preparing the bathroom walls for the new fixtures is an important task and also to make sure that the plumbing pipework is not damaged. If there are any leaks or clogs, the problems should be resolved before the installation of new fixtures and not after. In case the pipework needs to be replaced or any leak needs to be repaired, it should be done before the bathroom installation process. Once the new fixtures are put in place, it will be difficult to rework and also it will be expensive.

At Builders London, we not only work with bathroom installers but also with electricians and plumbers. They will make sure that everything is fixed up so that your bathroom installation is done correctly and effectively.

Finishing the walls and bathroom tiling

After the fixtures have been installed properly, it is time for bathroom tiling to be added. If you have opted for tiling, it will probably be around the sink, bath and maybe on the floor. This is going to make your bathroom waterproof and also stop water ingress behind the tiles where problems might grow due to dampness. Even floor tiling can be done at this stage. If you need any plastering work, it can also be done at this stage.

The final touches for your bathroom installation

This is the last and final stage. It involves the final checks and touches to ensure that everything is working fine. This stage might even involve fitting cupboards or shelves. We can even help you with adding and decorating light fixtures. Before leaving your property, our installers will check all the plumbing and electrics to ensure that everything is functioning properly so that we can sign off the job as complete.
