Homes in Dumfries and Galloway

In Scotland many families extend bungalows and semis, while tenement flats bring shared ownership of roofs and walls that needs agreeing early.

What goes into bathroom installation?

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.

How much does bathroom installation cost in Dumfries and Galloway?

What bathrooms and en-suites typically cost. These are guide ranges; the written quote for your house replaces them.

Do you need permission for bathroom installation in Dumfries and Galloway?

Projects in Scotland need a building warrant from the council before any building work starts, and a completion certificate once it is finished. Planning permission is a separate decision. The Party Wall etc. Act does not apply in Scotland; shared walls are governed by title deeds and the law of the tenement where relevant.

Bathroom refits do not usually need planning permission; new bathrooms or drainage changes may need a building warrant.

What should I think about before starting?

Wet rooms need a fall to the drain and full waterproofing.
Moving a toilet depends on the soil pipe route.
