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.
Moving toilet or sink locations exceeds simple renovation. It requires new pipe runs and shutoff valves. Ask for a premium quote for relocated plumbing. Verify local code requirements for new fixtures. Relocation adds significant labor time. Confirm if trenching is needed for floor-mounted pipes. This affects your total budget heavily.
Ask the contractor to test existing floor drains before demolition. Poor flow causes standing water, which damages subfloors quickly. Verify if a new trap or larger pipe is needed. This step prevents expensive post-installation flooding. Check the slope toward the drain. A 1:120 gradient is standard for proper drainage efficiency.
A standard full bathroom renovation takes 2 to 4 weeks. Delays happen when custom vanities arrive late. Water supply shutoffs may last 1 to 2 days. Ask about the critical path. Delays in waterproofing drying time halt tile installation entirely. Pressure to skip drying time causes trapped water bubbles under tiles later.
All outlets near water sources must be GFCI protected. This device cuts power in 10 to 15 milliseconds if a leak occurs. Standard outlets are dangerous. Inspect if existing wiring is aluminum or copper. Old aluminum requires special connectors. Ensure new switches are installed 1.5 meters away from any water point.
Verify the existing floor slope before starting work. A standard bathroom floor needs a 2% slope toward the drain. If the current concrete base is uneven, the new tiles will crack. Ask for a digital level reading. Poor slope traps water, leading to mold and slipping hazards.
Identify where the main water stopcock is located. Ensure easy access for future leaks. Consider installing local shutoffs near new fixtures. Verify valve functionality before handover. A stuck valve causes minor leaks to become major floods. Ask the contractor to test each valve twice. This simple check saves thousands in potential water damage.
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.
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.
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.
