What goes into a bathroom

  1. 1
    Strip out and first fix

    Remove the old suite, then run new hot/cold and waste to the new layout.

  2. 2
    Sanitaryware and tiling

    Bath or shower, WC, basin, plus wall/floor tiling and an extractor fan.

  3. 3
    Second fix and finish

    Fit the suite, seal, grout and make good — the finish that buyers judge.

Bathrooms and kitchens are the rooms valuers and buyers scrutinise most, so they're where spec choices most affect your GDV. For HMOs, en-suites per room raise rents and valuation — see the HMO calculator.
