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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Define exactly what gets removed. Specify if tile down to subfloor or only surface layers. Include disposal methods for hazardous materials like asbestos if present. Agree on debris removal timing. Unclear demolition scope leads to surprise invoices. Request a line item for waste hauling to avoid hidden charges later.
Look for hairline cracks in the plaster before tiling. These indicate movement or moisture damage. Removing tiles without addressing the base wall will cause cracks to return. A professional must assess if wallboard needs replacement. Sealing over active leaks wastes money and leaves the structure vulnerable to rot and collapse.
If noise bothers you, ask about sound-isolation materials. Standard drywall transmits flush sounds clearly. Suggest adding mass-loaded vinyl or resilient channels. Verify effectiveness for specific noise types. Soundproofing increases wall thickness by 2 to 4 inches. This reduces usable space slightly. Decide early to adjust cabinet sizing accordingly.
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.
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.
