Quick answer
Yes — we do bathroom repairs and partial upgrades across Plymouth, not just full renovations. Re-sealing a leaking bath or shower, re-tiling, fixing a leak or damp, swapping a tired suite, fitting a new shower or replacing a toilet — if your bathroom mostly works but a part of it doesn’t, we’ll put that part right to the same standard as a full job.
Sometimes you don’t need a whole new bathroom
A full renovation is the right call when a bathroom’s reached the end of its life — but plenty of Plymouth bathrooms just need a targeted fix or a freshen-up. Re-sealing where the silicone’s gone black and lifting. Replacing a failed shower. Re-tiling a single wall that’s let water through. Swapping a cracked toilet or a dated basin. Sorting a slow leak before it becomes a ceiling stain downstairs. None of that means tearing the room apart, and we won’t try to sell you a full job you don’t need.
That said, we’re honest both ways. If we look at a repair and can see it’s papering over a bigger problem — water tracking behind tiles, a wet room with failed tanking, rot in a timber floor — we’ll tell you, because a patch on a deeper fault is money wasted. The aim is always the fix that actually solves it, whether that’s small or large.
Repairs and partial upgrades we do
Re-sealing
Stripping out failed, mouldy silicone around baths, showers and basins and re-sealing it properly so water stays where it should.
Leak & damp fixes
Tracing a leak to its source and fixing the cause, not just the symptom — before it damages floors or the room below.
Re-tiling
Replacing cracked, loose or dated tiles — a single wall, a splashback or a shower recess — with proper prep and waterproofing behind. See our tiling & flooring page.
Shower upgrades
Swapping a tired or failed shower for a new mixer, electric or thermostatic unit — or upgrading to a walk-in shower.
Suite swaps
Replacing a cracked, stained or dated toilet, basin or bath while keeping the rest of the room — a big visual lift for modest cost.
Accessibility add-ons
Fitting grab rails, a shower seat or a comfort-height toilet into an existing bathroom — see our accessible bathrooms hub.
The same standard, whatever the size
A small job still gets done properly. We don’t have a “good enough for a quick fix” setting — re-sealing is done with the old silicone fully stripped and the surface clean and dry first, a re-tile gets the right prep and waterproofing behind it, and a new shower is fitted and tested like any other. The job might be an afternoon rather than a fortnight, but the care is the same, and it’s covered by the same insured, accountable team.
Repairs and upgrades are also a smart way to spread the cost. If a full renovation isn’t on the cards this year, putting the worst problems right and refreshing the tired bits buys you time and keeps the bathroom pleasant to use. When you’re ready for the bigger job, our renovation hub and cost guide are there.
An afternoon’s work or a fortnight’s — the care and the standard are the same, and it’s the same accountable team.
