Working in Rutherglen

We cover every part of Rutherglen, including G40, G42 and G73, and nearby Cambuslang (2.4 miles) and Glasgow (3 miles).

In Rutherglen, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If you want to lose the bath and gain storage in your Rutherglen bathroom, we show you both options before you decide. Whether your Rutherglen bathroom is a compact box room or a larger main bathroom, the layout starts from measurements taken on site.

Most of Lanarkshire 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

A free home survey with measurements, photos and a check of your water pressure, drainage and ventilation
First and second-fix plumbing, including concealed cistern frames and new isolation valves
Boarding, tanking in the wet areas, wall and floor tiling
Layout options drawn to your room, including where the furniture run, bath or shower and towel rail will go

Decisions to make first

Furniture finish

Matt or gloss lacquer, wood-effect, painted shaker or handleless. Darker finishes hide marks; lighter ones make a small room feel bigger.

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.

Do you cover G40 in Rutherglen?

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.
