More information

What bathroom appliance installation covers

Whether you are replacing a single item or fitting out a full bathroom, the work focuses on safe, leak-free connections and a clean finish.

  • Connecting appliances to hot and cold water supplies and isolation valves
  • Installing and connecting waste traps, pipework and soil connections
  • Positioning and securing appliances to suit the room layout and manufacturer requirements
  • Checking water pressure and flow, and testing for leaks
  • Sealing and finishing around fixtures where appropriate
  • Troubleshooting existing pipework issues found during the install

Who this service is for

This service is a good fit if you want the job done properly, without recurring leaks, blockages or awkward finishing.

  • Homeowners upgrading a bathroom or replacing a failed fixture
  • Landlords needing durable, compliant installations between tenancies
  • Small commercial premises fitting staff or customer washrooms
  • Anyone installing an appliance that needs careful alignment with existing pipework

How the installation is delivered

Most installs follow a straightforward process, scaled to the size of the job.

  1. Planning and checks: confirm appliance specification, connection points, access, and any constraints.
  2. First fix (where needed): run or adjust supply and waste pipework before boxing-in, tiling, or furniture goes in.
  3. Second fix: fit the appliance, make final connections, and complete seals and finishing.
  4. Testing and handover: pressure and leak checks, functional testing, and guidance on shut-offs and basic care.

After installation: testing, tidying, and next steps

Once fitted, all connections are tested and the appliance is checked under normal use. If any follow-on work is recommended, such as replacing tired valves or improving access for maintenance, you will get clear options so you can decide what to do next.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of bathroom appliances can you install?
Bathroom appliance installation typically covers bidets, WCs, basins, taps, shower valves, and similar fixtures that need water and waste connections. If you are not sure whether your item is suitable, share the make and model and the intended position for confirmation.
Can you install an appliance I have already purchased?
Yes, you can supply your own appliance for installation. It helps to have the installation instructions and all fittings available on site, and you will be advised if any additional valves or connectors are needed.
How long does bathroom appliance installation take?
Simple replacements can often be completed in a single visit, while installations that require pipework changes may take longer. Timing depends on access, the condition of existing pipework, and whether the work is part of a wider bathroom refurbishment.
Will the water need to be turned off?
In most cases the water will need to be isolated during connection work. Where possible, local isolation valves are used to minimise disruption, and you will be told in advance if a full property shutdown is required.
Do you test everything after fitting?
Yes, the appliance and all supply and waste connections are tested for leaks and proper operation before the job is signed off. Any issues found with existing pipework during testing will be explained along with the practical options to fix them.
