Bathroom pipework — Bathroom installer
Describe the bathroom layout change or pipe fault and identify the fixtures affected. Share accessible photographs and any drawings; relocating a bath or shower can be a routing problem even when the new fixture itself is simple to fit.
Service scope
Installation, alteration or repair of bathroom water and waste pipework within an agreed room scope. Routing, service access and interfaces with shared systems must be established separately from the fitting of visible sanitary products.
What is normally included
- Bathroom supply-pipe alterations
- Waste-pipe routing within scope
- Connection testing and access planning
What is not included
- Unapproved alteration of shared stacks
- Structural cutting without assessment
Typical tasks
- Review fixture and pipe positions
- Assess accessible route options
- Coordinate required service isolation
- Complete the agreed pipework alterations
- Check connections before covering and record access points
What to include in your brief
- Existing and proposed fixture layout
- Accessible pipe photographs
- Reported leakage or blockage symptoms
- Floor and wall access
- Shared-service and occupancy information
Choosing the right professional
Compare the pipework scope and reinstatement responsibilities. Ask how connections will be checked before finishes cover them, and who is responsible for agreeing changes involving a common building system.
Important considerations
- Concealed pipe routes may differ from drawings
- Shared shutdowns can affect other occupants
