Planning a kitchen or other rooms at the same time? The Refurbishments page explains how Gareth runs a bigger job.

Gareth fits bathrooms across Caterham and the nearby towns, from swapping a toilet or basin to stripping out a tired bathroom and starting again. For a full refit he can coordinate the other trades the room needs, such as tiling, plastering and electrics, so the job runs in the right order.

Planning the room

The layout decides a lot. Keeping the toilet, bath and basin where they are is usually simplest, because the waste pipes already run there. Moving them is possible but depends on the route the waste can take and the fall it needs. Water pressure matters too, especially if you want a stronger shower.

How a refit runs

The old suite comes out, new pipework and waste go in while the walls and floor are open, then tiling and finishing follow before the new fittings are connected and tested. Gareth will tell you how long you will be without the bathroom before work starts.

Part of a bigger job

He is an exceptional engineer, knowledgeable about all aspects of boilers and central heating systems. He keeps you informed and is always punctual, he always works clean and is very polite and friendly. A true old school craftsman. Well done!”

Frequently Asked Questions

How long will I be without a bathroom?
It depends on the size of the job. Swapping one fitting is quick, while a full refit with tiling takes longer. You will have a timescale with the quote.
Can you move the toilet?
Often, yes. It depends on whether the waste pipe can reach the soil stack with enough fall, which Gareth checks when he sees the room.
Will a new shower be more powerful?
Not always. Shower strength depends on your water pressure and how your hot water is supplied. Gareth checks both and suggests a shower that suits your system.
