Working in Dumfries

We work right across Dumfries — DG1 and DG2 — and in neighbouring Locharbriggs and Annan.

In Dumfries, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. We survey in Dumfries before quoting, so the furniture run is planned around your actual walls, window and soil stack. Fitted furniture suits the many Dumfries bathrooms that have to hold towels, toiletries and cleaning things for a whole household.

Supplies across most of Dumfries and Galloway are 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

Supply of the suite, fitted furniture, worktop, brassware, tiles and accessories
Electrical work by a qualified electrician: lighting, extractor fan, shaver socket or heating, tested and certified
Boarding, tanking in the wet areas, wall and floor tiling
Strip-out of the old bathroom and removal of the waste

Decisions to make first

Worktop

Laminate is the budget choice, quartz-effect and solid surface resist water and stains, and a moulded basin-and-top in one piece has no joints to clean.

Wall-hung or floor-standing

Wall-hung units show more floor and look lighter; floor-standing units give more storage and suit uneven walls.

Rules that apply in Scotland

In Scotland, building standards apply instead of Part P. A straight refit rarely needs a building warrant, but forming a new bathroom, altering drainage or structural work may. Electrical work should still be tested and certified to BS 7671.

More about fitted bathrooms

Fitted bathrooms in Dumfries: questions

What is the price of a fitted bathroom in Dumfries?

A fitted bathroom in Dumfries usually costs £6,200–£11,500 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.

Do you cover DG1 and DG2 in Dumfries?

Yes. We cover all of Dumfries, including DG1 and DG2, and nearby Locharbriggs, Annan and Stranraer. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Dumfries?

Will a fitted bathroom in Dumfries need a building warrant?

Usually not for a straight refit. Building warrants are issued by the local council's building standards service, and forming a new bathroom, changing drainage or structural work can need one. We tell you at the survey and handle the application if one is needed.

What is the difference between a fitted bathroom and a normal bathroom?

In a fitted bathroom the basin, WC and storage are built into one continuous run of furniture, with the cistern and pipes hidden behind panels and a worktop across the top. A standard bathroom uses separate pieces, such as a pedestal basin and close-coupled toilet, which leave gaps and visible pipework.
