Working in St Andrews

In St Andrews we cover KY16; we also cover Dundee, 11.2 miles away, and Carnoustie.

St Andrews gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. For St Andrews bathrooms keeping the same layout, fit-only is the cheaper route, because the pipework stays largely where it is. If you have bought a suite and need it fitted in St Andrews, we check the product list before booking so the job is not held up by a missing part.

Most of Fife is supplied with soft water. That leaves you free to choose matt black, brushed brass or clear glass without worrying much about limescale. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Strip-out of the old suite and tiles, and removal of the waste
First and second-fix plumbing: supplies, wastes, isolation valves and the connection to the soil stack
A check of your product list against the room and the plumbing before the job is booked
Unpacking and checking delivered items before day one, so damage or missing parts can go back to the seller early

Decisions to make first

Who buys the materials

Adhesive, grout, boards, tanking, wastes and fixings can come from you or from us. The quote says which, so nothing is assumed.

Same layout or new

Keeping the layout keeps labour in the £2,200 to £4,000 range; moving the WC, shower or basin adds pipework and days.

Rules that apply in Scotland

In Scotland, the Scottish Water Byelaws 2014 cover new taps, WCs and showers, whoever bought them. A like-for-like fit rarely needs a building warrant; a new layout that alters drainage may. Electrical work is tested and certified to BS 7671.

More about bathroom fitting

Bathroom fitting in St Andrews: questions

What is the price of bathroom fitting in St Andrews?

Bathroom fitting in St Andrews usually costs £2,100–£5,800 including VAT. The final figure comes down to what you choose and what we find at the survey; your written quote lists every item so you can see where the money goes.

Is the home survey in St Andrews really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Do you cover KY16 in St Andrews?

Yes. We cover all of St Andrews, including KY16, and nearby Dundee, Carnoustie and Glenrothes. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in St Andrews?

Should I buy my own bathroom suite or let the fitter supply it?

Buying your own gives you full choice and can save money in a sale, but you take on deliveries, checking every box and any returns. Supply and fit puts that on the fitter and gives you one price for everything. If you are unsure, ask for both options on the same quote. See fitted bathrooms for supply and fit.
