Plumbing First Bathroom Fitting

A bathroom should make everyday life easier. You need enough hot water, reliable shower pressure, quick drainage and a layout that does not feel awkward every time you use it.

Tiles, furniture and taps shape how the room looks. The hidden pipework decides how well it performs.

A poorly routed waste pipe can leave water sitting in a shower tray. A large rainfall shower may disappoint if the existing system cannot supply enough water. Moving a toilet without checking the soil pipe route can add cost without improving the room.

Our plumbing-led approach identifies these issues before the bathroom is stripped out or expensive products are ordered.

What we do during a Bathroom Installation
  • Incoming water pressure and flow
  • Boiler or hot water cylinder capacity
  • Existing hot and cold pipework
  • Toilet, basin, bath and shower waste routes
  • Radiator and heated towel rail requirements
  • Signs of leaks, damp or damaged flooring
  • Ventilation and condensation
  • Access for installation and future maintenance

Where the bathroom affects the wider heating or hot water system, we can also advise on boiler installations and hot water cylinder installations.

Replacement bathroom suites

An old toilet, basin, bath or shower can be replaced while keeping the main layout broadly the same. This usually limits alterations to the pipework and drainage.

A full refurbishment can involve stripping out the existing room, renewing plumbing, replacing the suite and completing the agreed finishing work. The quotation will identify exactly which elements are included rather than relying on a vague description such as “complete bathroom”.

We fit showers, trays, screens and enclosures suited to the available space and water system. Shower performance is checked against the property’s actual pressure and hot water capacity.

Removing a bath can create space for a larger, easier-to-access shower. The floor, drainage position and surrounding walls need to be checked before the new tray or shower area is specified.

An en suite can make better use of a bedroom and reduce pressure on the main family bathroom. The drainage route, ventilation, floor construction and water supply must be considered before the layout is confirmed.

A shower room can work well where there is not enough space for a full bath. Downstairs cloakrooms and compact toilet rooms also benefit from careful fixture positioning and sensible pipe routes.

A heated towel rail should be sized for the room rather than selected on appearance alone. We can assess the heating requirement and how the rail will connect to the existing system.

Changing the layout may require new water supplies, wastes or soil pipe connections. We explain which changes are practical and which would add significant cost or disruption.

Your Bathroom Install Questions Answered

How Much Does a New Bathroom Cost?

The cost depends on the room, products and work involved.

A like-for-like suite replacement with limited plumbing changes will usually cost less than a full refurbishment involving new drainage, extensive tiling, electrical work or structural alterations.

As a broad national guide rather than a Louis Greetham quotation, 2026 UK cost sources commonly place a mid-range bathroom renovation at roughly £4,500 to £9,000. Premium fittings, layout changes, damaged floors, new electrics and extensive finishing can take the total beyond that range.

The largest cost differences often come from:

  • Moving the toilet or soil pipe
  • Replacing damaged floors or walls
  • Changing the bath or shower position
  • Installing a new en suite where no drainage exists
  • Upgrading the hot water system
  • Full-height tiling or specialist wall finishes
  • Electrical alterations
  • Premium sanitaryware and brassware
  • Bespoke screens, furniture or worktops

A site survey is the only sensible way to price the actual bathroom.

A simple plumbing-led suite replacement may take several working days. A full refurbishment involving strip-out, waterproofing, tiling, electrics and drying or curing time commonly takes two weeks or longer.

Industry estimates vary because “bathroom installation” can describe anything from replacing a basin to rebuilding the entire room. Rated People gives a general range of one to three weeks, while the Federation of Master Builders advises that a standard full renovation involving all stages may take two to four weeks.

Your quotation will include a project-specific expectation once the scope and products are known.

The written scope will state whether each part is included, coordinated or needs to be arranged separately. 

No extra work should be carried out without explaining the issue and agreeing the cost. Some problems, such as rotten flooring or leaking pipework behind tiles, cannot be confirmed until the room is stripped out. You will be told what has been found before additional work proceeds.

Any deposit or staged payment requirement will be shown in the quotation before you book. Payment arrangements can vary according to the value of products being ordered and the length of the project.

The quotation should state its validity period. Product and material prices can change, so ask for the price to be reconfirmed if you decide to proceed after the stated date.

Lead times depend on the current schedule, the scale of the project and product availability. You will receive a realistic start date after the survey and scope have been agreed. Bespoke furniture, screens and special-order fittings can extend the lead time.

Customer-supplied products can be discussed during the survey. We will need to check the sizes, connection positions, condition and compatibility. Any effect on labour, guarantees or replacement parts should be agreed in writing.

Yes, where the floor, drainage and available space are suitable. A larger shower tray can often fit within the old bath area, although the waste position and condition of the surrounding walls must be checked.

Yes, in many bathrooms. The bath must be suitable, the walls need appropriate water protection and the existing hot water system must support the chosen shower.

We can investigate the cause and explain the practical options. Low performance may be caused by the incoming supply, restrictive pipework, an unsuitable shower, a gravity-fed system or limited hot water capacity.

Yes, where the available pressure and flow rate are suitable. Large shower heads can demand more water, so their performance should be checked before the bathroom is designed around one.

That depends on the boiler type, output, incoming mains flow and whether other outlets will be used at the same time. A survey can identify whether the current boiler is suitable or whether another shower arrangement would work better.

Yes. The towel rail must be correctly sized and connected to a suitable heating supply. A small decorative rail may dry towels without providing enough heat for the entire room.

A standard internal bathroom replacement does not normally need planning permission. Different rules may apply if the work forms part of an extension or affects a listed building.

A like-for-like refit does not generally require approval by itself.

Approval may be needed where the project involves new drainage, electrical alterations, structural work or a bathroom in a room where there was not one before.

Yes. The service area includes Pinchbeck, Peterborough, Bourne, Holbeach, Stamford, Boston, Long Sutton, Grantham, Donington and Sleaford, plus surrounding towns and villages.
