Bath Replacement

What bath replacement includes

Bath replacement covers the safe removal of your existing bath and the correct installation of the new one, with careful checks to make sure everything runs and drains as it should.

• Check access, measurements and the existing pipework layout
• Isolate water supplies before any disconnection
• Remove the existing bath and disconnect waste, overflow and pipework
• Position, level and secure the new bath
• Connect waste and overflow, and make any minor pipework adjustments needed
• Reconnect taps if they are being reused, or fit new taps if supplied
• Seal around the bath edge where applicable
• Run water and drain tests, plus leak checks on all joints
• Tidy up and confirm everything is operating correctly

When a bath replacement is the right option

This service is a good fit if your bath is cracked, worn, difficult to keep clean, or you are updating the bathroom without a full refurbishment. Landlords often book bath replacement between tenancies to keep bathrooms watertight and presentable. It also suits small commercial premises where a practical, dependable replacement is needed with minimal disruption.

How the work is delivered

Bath replacement is usually scheduled work, agreed in advance. The job typically starts with isolating supplies and disconnecting pipework, then removing the old bath and setting the new one in place level and secure. Connections are made carefully, then tested under normal use so you can be confident there are no slow leaks.

After installation: checks and next steps

Once fitted, the bath is tested for both supply and drainage, and sealant lines are checked visually for continuity. You will be shown what has been done and what to look out for over the first few uses. If you are planning further bathroom work, this is also a good time to discuss tap upgrades, new wastes, or replacing an old bath panel.
