Working in Stornoway

We cover all of Stornoway, including HS1. Because Stornoway is further afield, we arrange survey visits in batches; tell us your timescale and we will confirm a date before you commit to anything.

Stornoway gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. Landlords with flats or houses in Stornoway can supply their own standard suites and have them fitted between tenancies. For Stornoway bathrooms keeping the same layout, fit-only is the cheaper route, because the pipework stays largely where it is.

Water across much of the Highlands and Islands is soft. 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

Boarding, tanking in the shower area and tiling labour, with tiles and adhesive from you or sourced by us
Fitting the suite, furniture, screen and accessories, then silicone, testing and a clean handover
A check of your product list against the room and the plumbing before the job is booked
A survey of the room, the supplies and drainage, and the products you plan to use

Decisions to make first

Fit-only or supply and fit

Fit-only lets you choose and buy every product yourself; supply and fit puts sourcing, deliveries and returns on us, with one price for everything.

Tiling

Some customers tile themselves or use a separate tiler. That can work, but the order of trades and who tanks the shower area must be agreed first.

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.

Bathroom fitting in Stornoway 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.

How long does bathroom fitting take?

Allow 4–8 working days on site for most jobs, plus the lead time for products after you approve the quote. We give you a day-by-day plan before work starts in Stornoway.

Is the home survey in Stornoway 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 HS1 in Stornoway?

Yes. We cover all of Stornoway, including HS1, and nearby the surrounding area. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Who is responsible if a product I supplied is faulty?

If you bought the product, a fault with it is a matter for the retailer or manufacturer that sold it to you. We are responsible for our fitting work. If a fault shows up during fitting, we stop, show you, and help you describe it to the seller; fitting a replacement part can add labour, which we agree with you first.
