A new bathroom that works for your needs

A bathroom has to do more than look tidy on the day it is fitted. We build complete new bathrooms with proper planning for layout, plumbing positions, electrics, ventilation, wall preparation, waterproofing and final fitting.

The right balance of bath, shower, basin, toilet, storage and heating depends on the room size and how you use it. With R W Spencer & Son Ltd, we think about comfort, access and cleaning from the start, which helps you avoid a room that looks smart but feels cramped, awkward or always slightly damp.

Preparation matters more than people think

The neat finish only lasts if the room behind it is ready for daily use. We set expectations for strip-out, first-fix services, substrate checks, wall and floor preparation, installation, tiling, sealing and final checks. Water pressure, extraction, lighting and slip resistance all influence the end result.

Choosing R W Spencer & Son Ltd means the hidden parts get proper attention, not just the visible fittings. We keep the focus on a bathroom that copes with steam, splashes and constant use without starting to fail around the edges.

Frequently asked questions

Should we choose a bath, a shower or both?

That comes down to space, daily routine and who will use the room. Some bathrooms work best with a larger shower, while others benefit from keeping a bath or combining both. We look at access, movement around the room and the fittings you actually need before settling on the layout.

Can poor ventilation ruin a new bathroom?

Yes, because steam has to go somewhere. Without proper extraction and the right wall preparation, moisture can linger, leading to peeling finishes and mould around seals and corners. We plan ventilation as part of the installation so the room stands a better chance of staying dry and easier to maintain.

What happens before the new suite goes in?

The early stages usually involve removing the old bathroom, checking surfaces, adjusting first-fix plumbing and electrics where needed, and preparing walls and floors for the new finishes. That groundwork is what allows the final fitting, tiling and sealing to sit properly and last as they should.
