Plan for aging in place if relevant. Ensure clear floor space near the toilet and shower. Install grab bars into wall studs, not just tiles. Verify door swing width matches wheelchair needs. Ask for compliant fixture heights. Accessibility upgrades require precise measurement. Avoid retrofitting later, which is more expensive than planning ahead.
Require a full pressure test before tiling. Fill new pipes with water and hold for 2 to 4 hours. Check for drips or pressure drop. This catches leaks hidden under tile. Refusing this test risks paying twice for repair work. Insist on written sign-off from the plumber. This final check guarantees system integrity before closing walls.
Avoid cheap paint-based sealers that peel off quickly. Demand liquid polymer membranes applied with a brush in 3 coats. The total thickness must reach at least 1.5 mm. Ask for a warranty on this specific layer. Waterproofing failures cause wet drywall behind walls within 2 years if skipped.
Renovation creates massive silica dust that spreads through HVAC systems. Professionals must seal the work area with heavy plastic sheeting. They must use HEPA filters on wet saws. Ask if they cover vents. Without protection, you will clean white dust from furniture in adjacent rooms for weeks.
Do not buy cabinets before measuring the finished floor. Tile adds 10 to 15 mm to the height. Standard vanity heights are 85 cm, but vary by user height. Check door swing clearance immediately. A 60 cm door needs 90 cm of open space. Misfitting furniture ruins the entire aesthetic and function of the room.
Thin grout lines under 3 mm should use sanded or unsanded grout depending on tile size. Large format tiles over 30 cm need flexible epoxy grout. Epoxy resists staining better than cement. It costs more but lasts longer. Ask about curing time. Water-based grout needs 24 hours before light foot traffic to avoid surface pitting.
Opening walls often reveals rotted plumbing or bad electrical work. Add a 15% contingency to your budget. Do not let contractors cut corners here. Exposed pipes may need full replacement. Ask for itemized estimates for water damage fixes. Hidden costs are the primary reason projects overrun their initial financial projections significantly.
Test every drain flow with 10 liters of water. Check for slow backups. Inspect all silicone seals around the shower base. Look for gaps at corners. Ensure the door swells properly in heat. Demand a final punch list of defects to fix before final payment. This forces corrective action on minor alignment issues.
Request detailed product codes for new toilets, sinks, and faucets. Ensure kerbside compatibility with existing plumbing heights. Ask about water efficiency ratings to lower utility bills. Verify valve requirements before ordering. Mismatched fixtures cause rework delays. Confirm all parts are available before starting to avoid stalled progress.
Inspect the concrete slab or wood subfloor beneath old tiles. Ask for moisture testing results. Replacing a damaged slab is costly but necessary for longevity. Check for levelness requiring self-leveling compound. A uneven subfloor cracks tiles later. Ensure the contractor includes this check in the initial estimate explicitly.
