If your bathroom is tired, awkward to use, or simply too small, a well planned upgrade can change daily life. Our bathroom fitters in Leicester design and install spaces that look beautiful and work brilliantly, from compact en-suites to luxury family bathrooms. At Construction Interior Design Ltd, we handle the full journey in-house so you get clear advice, tidy workmanship, and a finish that lasts.
Most bathroom refurbishments take 7 to 12 working days, depending on complexity, structural changes and lead times for special items. Cost is shaped by room size, amount of tiling, brassware quality, and whether we are moving services. We can phase purchases to suit budgets without cutting corners on waterproofing. Honest chat up front avoids surprises later.
Leicester homes vary a lot. We regularly work in Clarendon Park terraces with tight pipe runs, larger 1930s semis in Stoneygate, and new builds around Hamilton. We adapt layouts, drainage and ventilation to suit each property rather than forcing a standard plan.
One team for survey, design, plumbing, electrics, joinery, tiling and decoration. Part P certified electricians and Gas Safe engineers are brought in where required. You don’t need to juggle trades.
CSCS, SSSTS, IPAF and PASMA held across our site teams. We follow Building Regulations Parts G, M and P, and design ventilation to Part F rates so humidity doesn’t creep back as mould six months later.
We favour porcelain tiles on decoupling membranes, wet room tanking with backer boards rather than plasterboard, and quality brassware with ceramic cartridges. Little choices that prevent leaks and cracked grout lines later
A busy household needed a bath for the kids and a proper shower for early starts. We re-routed wastes to increase the shower tray to 1200 mm, added a thermostatic mixer, fitted underfloor heating, and built a tall linen cupboard into the stud wall. Water pressure tested at 1.4 bar so we specified a low-pressure friendly rain head. Result was warmer, quieter and far less cluttered.
In a Victorian terrace the door hit the pan and storage was non-existent. We flipped the door swing, used a short-projection toilet, installed a 900 mm corner shower with a clear screen, and ran bespoke vanity drawers wall to wall. A light grey porcelain and a single niche made the room feel bigger than it measures. The owners now call it their “tiny spa”, which made us smile.
For an elderly client we delivered a step-free wet room with anti-slip tiles, concealed grab rails, and a fold-down bench. We lowered the former and built gradients into the floor with a pre-formed tray former, fully tanked. A sensor light and lever mixers improved ease of use without making it look clinical.
These examples show how our bathroom fitters in Leicester tackle layout, waterproofing and storage together, not as afterthoughts.
Ventilation matters – A quiet, humidity-sensing fan ducted outside prevents black mould and peeling paint. We size fans to the room, not just what’s in stock.
Lighting layers – Task lighting at the mirror, warm ambient lighting, and a low-level night light stop glare at 2 a.m. IP ratings matched to shower zones.
Tiling on the right substrate – We use cement backer boards in wet areas, not standard plasterboard, and decouple floors to reduce cracked grout. It costs a touch more but avoids re-tiling in a year or two.
Storage you’ll actually use – Recessed niches, vanity drawers, mirrored cabinets with shaver sockets, towel alcoves in stud walls. Clutter gone, calm restored.
Heat you can feel – Efficient underfloor heating paired with a dual-fuel towel rail means warm toes and dry towels, even when the boiler is off in summer.
Survey and brief – We measure accurately, check joists and fall on existing wastes, test water pressure, and listen to how you actually use the room.
Design and specification – We propose two layout options with fixture choices. You will see tile samples, grout colours, lighting ideas, ventilation rates and heating choices. Small detail, big difference.
Programme and protection – We agree dates, protect floors and stairs, isolate services safely and keep the rest of the house usable. Pets and kids considered, always.
Bathroom installation – First fix plumbing and electrics, boarding and tanking, tiling with levelling systems, second fix, then silicone and testing. Snag list completed before handover.
Handover and care – You get product warranties, our workmanship guarantee, and simple maintenance tips so the finish stays sharp.

On average, a full bathroom installation takes 1–2 weeks, depending on the size of the space and the complexity of the work. This includes removing the old suite, plumbing, and tiling and fitting new fixtures. We’ll provide a clear timeline before starting so you know what to expect.
