Testimonial
"From start to finish, working with Les was an absolute pleasure. His attention to detail was exceptional, and the care he put into every aspect of the project really showed in the final result.
We had a very clear vision for what we wanted to achieve with our bathroom, and we know we probably weren’t the easiest clients at times! But Les was incredibly accommodating, patient, and thoughtful throughout the entire process. He really took the time to understand exactly what we wanted, asked all the right questions, and made sure every decision aligned with the vision we had in mind.
What impressed us most was his ability to take our ideas and execute them so perfectly. Nothing ever felt rushed or overlooked, and his craftsmanship and professionalism were evident every step of the way.
Not only is the finished bathroom better than we could have imagined, but the whole experience of working with Les was genuinely enjoyable. We’re absolutely thrilled with the outcome and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for someone talented, reliable, and truly invested in delivering exceptional work."

Project Brief
The requirements for this customer amounted to an almost complete bathroom refurb. Some plumbing work had been completed with services provided for hot & cold water, a shower feed, toilet feed and waste. The requirements were to:
- box in the shower pipes
- build a bulk-head to hide pipework to the toilet and sink and clad it with panelling
- fit a shower tray and glass panel
- fit a toilet and sink with vanity unit
- tile the shower enclosure and floor
- frame the window reveal
- fit a radiator
The customer chose to fit additional panelling and skirting as well as painting and wall papering.
Original bathroom
The below pictures show the bathroom as it was when the customer purchased the property. It was emptied and the walls re-plastered and pipework and plumbing fitted.
Work in Progress
Due to the age of the property, plywood and cement board was laid to stabilise the floor. This is in order to avoid the floor flexing which would result in the grout cracking over time. Pipe work for the shower was boxed in and a bulk-head constructed for the toilet and vanity unit. Rather than box in the waiste pipe from the shower, the client chose to make a feature of it, by fitting a brass sleeve over it. Porcelain tiles were fitted to the shower enclosure and marble ones to the floor.
Completed Project
The result was a sleek, clean-lined en-suite shower, toilet and basin.
