The stages of a bathroom renovation
Every bathroom is different, but the work follows the same order, and knowing it helps you plan how long the room will be out of use.
- Strip-out: the old suite, tiles and boxing come out and waste is removed
- First fix: pipework and waste positions are set for the new layout
- Boarding: walls and floor are prepared, with backer board and tanking in wet areas
- Tiling: walls and floor are tiled, grouted and left to set
- Second fix: the toilet, basin, bath or shower, taps and accessories go in
- Final check: everything is tested, sealed and walked through with you
Bathroom services and fitters near you
A new bathroom is rarely just one job. These pages cover the parts of a bathroom refit people most often ask about, from replacing a bath with a walk in shower to fitting a level wet room floor or replacing a cracked shower tray.
New bathroom, refit or remodel?
The words overlap, but the work does not. A refit keeps the layout and replaces the suite, tiles and floor. A remodel moves things around, such as turning the toilet, moving the basin or swapping the bath for a shower, which means new pipe and waste runs. A full renovation can include both, plus replacing the bathroom floor where old boards have softened under a leaking bath or toilet.
Being clear about which you want helps the quotation. Send photos of the room as it is, a note of what you would like to change and anything that already bothers you, such as a bouncy floor or a shower that drains slowly, and Danny will explain which stages the job needs.
Bathroom renovation prices
On this site's pricing, a straight swap in the same layout is 4,000 to 5,500 pounds, a full refit with a better finish 5,500 to 7,000 pounds, and a layout change or walk in shower 7,000 to 9,000 pounds. What moves a room between those bands is explained in the guides below, and every job gets a written quotation before work starts.
Bathroom fitters across Kent, one tradesman at a time
Searching for bathroom fitters near me usually brings up firms with several teams. CRF Services Ltd is different: Danny Morrison is based in Rochester ME3 and fits one bathroom at a time, across Medway and out to Maidstone and Tonbridge. That means fewer jobs on the go, but the person who measured your room is the one who strips it out, boards it, tiles it and hands it back to you.
Shower rooms and cloakrooms too
The same service covers full bathrooms, shower rooms and downstairs cloakrooms. Smaller rooms still go through every stage, only with less tiling and fewer fittings. Specialist work such as new electrical circuits is explained at quotation stage and arranged with the right trade.
