Bathroom Fitters

Specialist Bathroom Fitters in the Midlands

A new bathroom is one of the most used spaces in the house, but also one of the easiest to get wrong. Poor layout, awkward storage or cheap fittings can become daily irritations very quickly. Based in Rutland and working across the Midlands, CID Limited brings decades of construction and fit-out experience to bathroom installations and refurbishments, treating them as small technical projects rather than simple “rip out and replace” jobs. The aim is a bathroom, shower room or en-suite that looks good on day one and still works well years down the line.

New Bathrooms that Work in Everyday Life

Before talking about tiles and taps, we start with how you actually use the room. A busy family bathroom has very different needs to a compact en-suite or guest shower room. We’ll ask simple, practical questions: who uses the space, at what times, and what currently annoys you about it.

In a typical family home, that might mean creating a layout where one person can use the basin while another uses the bath or shower, without everyone bumping into each other. In a small loft en-suite, it might mean prioritising a comfortable shower with decent head height rather than squeezing in a bath that is never used. In rental or HMO properties, durability and ease of cleaning can matter more than highly bespoke details.

By understanding the job the room needs to do first, we can recommend whether a shower-over-bath, walk-in shower, wet-room style floor, or bath-only layout makes most sense, rather than defaulting to the same arrangement in every home.

What We Look at Before We Start

A successful bathroom project starts with a clear picture of what is hiding behind the tiles. Ahead of any final design, our bathroom fitters will check a few key points and explain what they mean in plain language. Typical checks include:

  • Condition and size of existing plumbing and waste pipes
  • Water pressure and hot water system type (combi boiler, cylinder, tank)
  • Floor structure and whether it can take a new bath, tray or wet-room system
  • Existing ventilation and options for improving extraction
  • Electrical set-up for lighting, shaver points, mirrors and underfloor heating
  • Wall construction and suitability for wall-hung toilets, basins and units

 

Rather than simply assuming everything can stay where it is, we’ll give you a realistic view of what can be reused, what needs upgrading and where moving items will add complexity or cost. That way, you can decide where to invest and where to keep things simple.

Design Decisions that Make a Difference

Bathrooms are small rooms with lots going on, so small choices often have a big impact. As part of the planning stage, we walk you through details that are easy to overlook but make everyday use easier, such as:

  • Positioning the toilet so it is not the first thing you see from the landing
  • Allowing enough space around the basin so two people can stand there comfortably
  • Making sure doors, drawers and shower screens open fully without clashing
  • Choosing storage that keeps everyday items to hand but not on every surface
  • Planning lighting in layers – general light, mirror lighting and softer evening lighting

 

Thinking about future needs, such as grab rails, level access or space for a seat in the shower

We also talk through finishes in practical terms. For example, larger tiles can mean fewer grout lines to clean, but they may need more planning in small rooms. Textured floor tiles may be a better choice than very smooth ones in busy family bathrooms. Wall-hung furniture can make cleaning the floor easier but needs the right wall build-up and fixings. This kind of practical discussion helps you choose a specification that looks good and works hard day to day.

A Joined-up Installation from Strip-Out to Final Sealant Line

CID Limited provides an end-to-end bathroom fitting service, so you’re not left coordinating multiple trades yourself. Once the design and specification are agreed, our team handles:

  • Careful strip-out of existing fittings, tiles and old pipework
  • Any remedial work to walls, ceilings and floors
  • First fix plumbing and electrics for the new layout
  • Adjustments to soil pipes, wastes and ventilation routes
  • Floor preparation, including strengthening and levelling where required
  • Installation of trays, baths, wet-room formers and waterproofing systems
  • Tiling and wall finishes, including feature walls and niches
  • Fitting of sanitaryware, brassware, radiators and towel warmers
  • Installation of furniture, mirrors, screens and accessories
  • Final testing, sealing and finishing touches

 

You’ll have a clear programme so you know when the room will be out of use and when you get it back, with one main contact responsible for keeping everything joined up.

Straightforward Guidance on Budget and Specification

Bathroom projects often go over budget because of hidden repairs or late specification changes. We aim to reduce both. Early on we’ll break your bathroom installation cost into clear elements: labour, suite, brassware, tiles, furniture, heating, lighting and any structural or plumbing upgrades. That makes it easier to see where you want to spend and where you’re happy to keep things simple.

We can also suggest value decisions that don’t feel like compromises, such as using a statement tile on one wall and a simpler tile elsewhere, or choosing mid-range brassware with a good warranty over very high-end brands that use similar internal components. Where a particular choice will have ongoing benefits – like upgrading extraction or adding underfloor heating while the floor is already up – we’ll flag that too, so you can decide with the full picture in mind.
