Refurbishment of a bathroom for one of our existing clients on a tight budget.

Our customer asked us to get involved because they wanted a second opinion on the plumber who claimed moisture was just getting in behind the back of the tiles. On closer inspection the Bath Plumbing supply and basin waste had both been leaking for years Meaning the entire floor needed to be replaced. We completed the work for the customer in 3 1/2 days fitting in around the time when their tenants were on holiday and the property vacant.

We could’ve purchased a cheap bathroom Selco, but we got a decent quality item from Michael Pavis at a reasonable price which included an anti slip floor.

We fitted a hansgrohe bath/shower mixer tap so it would keep the pipes exposed and provide a robust solution given the quality of the product products that hansgrohe produces

We used a an aqua panel so there was less maintenance required in the future and no grout to clean between tenancies.

Able to keep the toilet as it has been replaced by Plumber in the last 12 months.

We still have the boxing to do on this photo

Joiner installed the Bath and used CLS timber to make larger feet areas to spread the load from the bath. The bath also included 6 feet rather than the normal five.

The leak had been so bad the insulation in the wall was absolutely sodden wet, acting like a sponge.

If the customer had listened to the Plumber, they would have wasted £250 regrouting the tiles. All the while their property would have been damaged further, luckily it wasn’t so bad that we had to replace the joists. We did however have to replace the floor with an 18 mm moisture resistant chipboard.
