Bathroom install in Windsor

This bathroom installation project started with full preparation to protect the client’s home. We laid carpet protection on the stairs, covered all hallway flooring, and carefully moved any furniture where required.

We then removed all existing sanitary ware, wall tiles, and floor coverings to begin the renovation.

On this project, there was an airing cupboard located where the new thermostatic shower mixer was planned. We removed this to create more usable space at the end of the bath. We also adjusted the shower mixer pipework and waste pipes, and rerouted the towel rail to its new position for a better layout.

As part of the installation, we skimmed the ceiling and fitted new IP65-rated chrome spotlights. We also upgraded the electrical setup by converting the pull-cord switch to a modern wall switch located outside in the hallway.

We then installed the new bath, prepared all surfaces, and primed the walls ready for tiling. As part of our process, we always fill the bath with water before tiling to prevent movement and avoid gaps forming between the tiles and bath over time.

To future-proof the installation, we fitted a removable bath panel using tiled sections, finished with colour-matched silicone to the grout for a seamless, high-end look.

The tiles used on this project were rectified tiles, meaning they are perfectly straight and consistent. This allows for a tighter joint and a cleaner finish, unlike cheaper tiles which can be slightly bowed and lead to uneven edges.

Once tiling and grouting were complete, we installed the new shower mixer, enclosure, and all sanitary ware, completing the main bathroom fitting work.

We then fitted LVT click vinyl flooring, which we regularly recommend on our property refurbishments projects. It is fully waterproof, durable, and safer underfoot compared to tiles, making it ideal for family homes or properties with elderly occupants. One of the leading brands we recommend is Quick-Step due to its quality and wide range of finishes.

After flooring installation, we completed all final detailing, including applying colour-matched silicone to all edges for a clean and watertight finish.

The project was then fully cleaned, all protection removed, and furniture repositioned, leaving the property in excellent condition. We always aim to leave homes cleaner than when we arrived.

All waste was removed using a licensed waste carrier, ensuring the site was left tidy and compliant.

This project is a great example of our work as a bathroom fitter in Windsor and surrounding areas (/bathroom-fitter-windsor), delivering high-quality finishes with attention to detail from start to finish.
