I can confidently recommend Bespoke Bathrooms to anyone looking to build or refurbish existing bathrooms. We opted to have the main bathroom and en-suite converted to wet rooms plus the guest cloakroom refurbished all at the same time, so planning and completion on schedule was critical and the team did not fail us. From the initial consultation, right through the selection of fixtures and the final fitting of bathrooms the team led by Nigel were highly professional, courteous and delivered to promise! The final outcome was bathrooms we and any visitors will continue to enjoy using for years to come…Thank you and best wishes to Nigel and the team at Bespoke Bathrooms. View details of this job...

A bathroom renovation is an exciting time, the high point often being choosing your new bathroom suite! You may have a very specific idea of what you want, or you might simply know what 'feel' you want to achieve from your bathroom renovation. Choosing the right bathroom suite is critical in the design of your bathroom renovation, so we've created this short guide to help you. Consider your space A lot can be done with a small bathroom renovation to maximise the space, but you still have to think about how everything will fit. That huge, luxury bath you've been coveting might not seem so brilliant when you haven't got room to swing a cat! However, there are many space­-saving bathroom suites available, with wall­-hung sinks and toilets for example, or built in storage, that can make it easier for you to achieve what you want with a small room. However before choosing a wall-­hung sink...

There are many routes you can go down when designing your new bathroom, and one of the big questions will be whether you paint or tile.  You may decide on a combination of the two, but many opt for full bathroom tiling.  Tiles are versatile, practical, waterproof, easy to clean and suit any bathroom.  Many people assume bathroom tiling must be cold underfoot but as tiles naturally retain heat, this generally isn't the case. With such a huge range of tiles to choose from, in a vast array of sizes and colours, it can be hard to know what to opt for and what will suit your bathroom. Our handy guide will help give you some ideas for your bathroom tiling, Bathroom Tiling: Size It's often advised that the size of your tiles should depend on the size of your room, although there are no hard and fast...

The benefits of a wet room are many – wet rooms are becoming more popular as a modern choice for people who are perhaps looking for something different, something more accessible, or to save space. A wet room is, essentially, a shower room in which the shower cubicle and tray are done away with. The shower area is open and the whole room is water­tight. The door will usually be raised a little above floor level, and the shower area will be fully tiled from floor to ceiling. Wet rooms are sleek, smart, low maintenance and very trendy. So, what are the benefits of a wet room? Is a wet room the right option for your home? Accessibility If you have mobility issues, you might find that you're drawn to the idea of a wet room because they are far more accessible than traditional bathroom suites. Without baths or shower trays to negotiate, it's much easier...

At Bespoke Bathrooms, we do not profess to be the cheapest in the business, what we do claim however, is that in choosing us, you are choosing quality. A cheap bathroom upgrade can end up costing you more in the long run. We are often calls from homeowners who have recently had a bathroom upgrade by a different company and had the nasty surprise of leaky pipes or taps a couple of months later. We end up coming in and putting right the shoddy work. Quality is important to us. It is reflected in everything we do from our choice of materials to the finish of our work. For example, with a bathroom upgrade, there is of course, a lot of pipe work and electrical work behind the walls. Since it is not on display, you will often find that a cheap contractor will simply not carry this...

 The Home Renovation Grant was launched in 2014. The scheme allows homeowners to claim tax relief on repairs carried out by tax compliant contractors. The contractor must be fully tax compliant and registered. At this point we would like to reassure you that Bespoke Bathrooms are fully tax compliant and registered for the scheme. The scheme means that for a limited time, as a homeowner, you can reclaim 13.5% on qualifying expenditure between €5,000 to €30,000. Of course, you can still commission jobs at a higher value but in this case, just the VAT on the €30,000 qualifies. It’s another great reason to choose Bespoke Bathrooms for your bathroom renovation. You may have been tempted by tradesmen offering to do the job for cash in the past. This new scheme makes that argument void. But aside from the money, choosing a registered contractor is the sensible option. What happens if...

We were updating a small top-floor bathroom in a period house. It was a tricky room to work with as it had several sloping ceilings and awkward angles. Nigel came and gave generously of his time and thoughts to explore the options that were possible within such a restricted room, how it could be best configured to maximize the space and natural light and ensure ease of use. That he was happy to listen, take on board our aims and concerns, address our queries and fully consider with us what was best for our needs and the longer term use of the room allowed us to make well informed and considered decisions that gave us peace of mind. The team was professional, all very pleasant to deal with and with a high level of workmanship. It was more expensive than we ourselves had budgeted for in the first...
