Housing in Northern Ireland mixes terraces in Belfast and Derry with detached houses and bungalows in towns and rural areas, many with room to extend.
What does bathroom installation involve?
Bathroom installation covers stripping out the old suite, altering plumbing and wiring, waterproofing, tiling, and fitting the new bath, shower, toilet, basin and heated towel rail. We also build new en-suites and shower rooms in lofts and extensions.
- Strip-out and disposal
- Waterproofing (tanking) of wet areas
- Extractor fan, lighting and heated towel rail

Do you need permission for bathroom installation in Downpatrick?
Northern Ireland projects need planning clearance and building control approval from the local council. We prepare the applications and agree any work near neighbouring property directly with the neighbours.
Bathroom refits do not need planning permission; electrics and ventilation must meet building regulations.
What should I think about before starting?
- Wet rooms need a fall to the drain and full waterproofing.
- Large-format tiles need flat walls, which may mean re-boarding.
