What the work looks like in Peebles

Older Peebles properties often have bathrooms that were fitted into whatever room could spare the space, decades ago. Pipework wanders, the layout is a compromise, and the tiling usually stops halfway up a wall that isn't flat. We take it back to bare walls so the new work starts from something honest.

New plumbing is set out for the layout that actually suits the room, walls are boarded and levelled, and shower areas are tanked before anything is tiled. In thick stone walls, boarding out is also what gives you a clean run for pipework without endless chasing.

Then tiling and finishing: set out from the eye line, cuts kept in the corners, grout consistent, trims at the edges, silicone run clean and flooring laid tight to the sanitaryware. Because Peebles is roughly 55 minutes out, we plan bathroom jobs there as a continuous block so the room isn't sitting half-finished between visits.

What's included

  • Full bathroom installs from strip-out to final silicone bead
  • Tiling set out properly, with cuts kept in the corners
  • Plumbing first and second fix, done as part of the job
  • Finishing — clean edges, working extractor, watertight throughout
