Agree the plan and check deliveries
Begin with the written scope, product choices, access arrangements and payment stages. Confirm who orders and checks deliveries. A missing part or incompatible fitting can interrupt a schedule, so establish how these issues will be handled before the existing room is taken out.
Remove and inspect
Removing fittings and old surfaces reveals the condition underneath. This is when damaged flooring, unsuitable walls or previous alterations may become clearer. Agree how the fitter will show you a problem, explain the options and obtain agreement for extra work. Hidden conditions should not become unexplained additions to a bill.
Make it specific to your room

Prepare the services and surfaces
The layout informs plumbing and any electrical work, while wall and floor preparation supports the chosen finishes. Waterproofing and ventilation should be considered within the complete plan. The exact sequence and waiting periods depend on the systems being used; avoid pressuring the schedule around a guessed completion date.
Install finishes and fittings
Wall coverings, floors, sanitaryware, screens and accessories are brought together in the order appropriate to the job. Check important positions before permanent fixing, such as mirror height or towel rail placement. Small decisions are easier to resolve before holes are drilled.
Check, explain and hand over
Allow time for the agreed checks and a walk-through of the room. Ask how controls work, where relevant isolation points are and what cleaning instructions apply. Keep product details and any supplied certificates or warranties together, and establish the contact route for any concern after completion.
