New-Build Bathroom Fitter FAQs — Trentham
- Can a new-build bathroom be re-fitted without warranty issues?
- Yes — bathroom finishes are not normally covered under NHBC after handover. Underlying plumbing should be checked before any opening-out; we'll flag anything we wouldn't disturb.
- What's typically wrong with developer-spec bathrooms in Trentham?
- Plasterboard behind tile with no tanking; chipboard floor with no waterproof overlay; basic single-lever mixers; budget trays and screens. Functional, but with a short maintenance cycle.
- Do you work around the existing layout or change it?
- Either. Many Trentham new-builds are decent in plan but poor in finish — we'll cost a like-for-like upgrade and a re-plan side by side.
- How long does a new-build re-fit take?
- Most Trentham new-build bathrooms run 7–10 working days from strip to handover.
- Do you tidy up at the end of each day?
- Yes — dust sheets stay down, the room is hoovered daily and we leave your Trentham home liveable while the work runs.
- How quickly can you start a job in Trentham?
- Lead time is usually two to five weeks from a confirmed quote, depending on the spec and our current schedule across the Staffordshire side.
