Bathroom Renovation Process
Your Bathroom Renovation Process, Step by Step
Knowing what to expect makes it easier to begin. While every bathroom and every home is different, a well-managed renovation follows a clear sequence: understand the space, agree the plan, prepare the work, coordinate the renovation, and complete the final details.
Step 1: Free onsite consultation
Tell us about your bathroom, the type of renovation you’re considering, and the features or frustrations you’d like to discuss. The first step is a free onsite consultation.
Step 2: Design and selections
During planning, we discuss how the room is used, layout, storage, shower and bath choices, finishes, lighting, and any accessibility or design-service needs. The level of detail depends on the project.
Step 3: Agreed scope and schedule
A clear project needs an agreed scope, selections and a documented way to handle any changes along the way. We’ll confirm the plan, responsibilities, programme and communication approach before work begins, including a port-a-shower if your bathroom will be out of action.
Step 4: Build and project management
Our approach is centred on owner oversight, a coordinated trade team and a shared schedule. As the project nears completion, we arrange a practical walk-through and confirm any final items before handing over your new bathroom.
Step 5: Handover and aftercare
The real test of a renovation is how it holds up once the tools have gone and daily life resumes. We’re happy to answer questions well after handover. A good renovation should keep working for you for years, not just look good on the day it’s finished.

Do I need building consent for a bathroom renovation?
Many like-for-like bathroom renovations are exempt, but moving walls, creating a new wet area or some shower work may need consent. Justin checks the consent position for every job before work starts. Read more about shower consent rules.
