Frequently asked questions
Can the bathroom layout change?
Layout changes depend on drainage, pipe routes, structure and space. We assess feasibility before including them in the quote.
Is waterproofing included?
Waterproofing requirements and the specified system are identified in the agreed scope before work starts.
Can I use the bathroom during the work?
A full strip-out normally takes the room out of use. Temporary arrangements should be agreed before scheduling.
