Working in Inverness

We cover all of Inverness, including IV1 and IV3, and nearby Nairn and Fort William.

In a city the size of Inverness, parking and access for a skip are worth sorting before the start date — we will ask at the survey. Fitted furniture suits the many Inverness bathrooms that have to hold towels, toiletries and cleaning things for a whole household. If your Inverness bathroom has pipes boxed in at odd angles, a fitted run is often the neatest way to hide them for good.

Most of the Highlands and Islands 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

Electrical work by a qualified electrician: lighting, extractor fan, shaver socket or heating, tested and certified
Strip-out of the old bathroom and removal of the waste
First and second-fix plumbing, including concealed cistern frames and new isolation valves
A free home survey with measurements, photos and a check of your water pressure, drainage and ventilation

Decisions to make first

Bath, shower or both

Keep a bath for children or soaking, swap it for a walk-in shower if no one uses it, or plan both if the room is big enough.

Tiling height

Tiling just the wet areas keeps the cost down. Full-height tiling looks better and is easier to wipe clean.

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 Inverness: questions

What is the price of a fitted bathroom in Inverness?

A fitted bathroom in Inverness usually costs £6,200–£11,500 including VAT. Where you land in that range depends on the size of the room, whether the layout changes and the products you choose. After the free survey you get an itemised written quote, and the price is fixed in writing once the layout and products are agreed.

Do you cover IV1 and IV3 in Inverness?

Yes. We cover all of Inverness, including IV1 and IV3, and nearby Nairn and Fort William. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Inverness?

Will a fitted bathroom in Inverness 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.
