What a real bathroom contractor does
A true bathroom contractor takes single-point responsibility for the whole project. That means one signed contract, one fixed price, one lead contact, and one team on site — not five different tradespeople you have to chase and coordinate yourself.
On a typical Aberdeen bathroom project we handle: surveys and measured drawings, 3D design, building warrant applications (when required), waste routing and stack alterations, first-fix plumbing and electrics, structural adjustments, waterproofing, full-height tiling, sanitaryware and tapware supply, second-fix, snagging and sign-off. It's a lot — which is exactly why hiring a proper contractor beats stitching trades together.
Why hire a local Aberdeen bathroom contractor?
Aberdeen's housing stock is unusually varied. Granite tenements in Rosemount need a different approach to 1970s bungalows in Peterculter, which are different again to new-build ensuites in Kingswells. A contractor who works these streets every week knows the quirks — the shared soil stacks, the awkward joist directions, the granite lintels that don't take rawlplugs — and prices the job accurately from day one.
We also carry local trade accounts with Aberdeen suppliers, so when a tile order arrives cracked or a shower valve fails, we're at the counter the same afternoon rather than waiting on a Manchester warehouse.
The full contracting service
Whether you need bathroom installation, a full renovation, a wet room conversion, an ensuite, or a combined kitchen and bathroom package, it all runs through the same contractor team. One quote, one contract, one accountable point of contact for the whole build.
For smaller works — leaks, tap swaps, silicone renewal, tile repairs — see our bathroom repairs service, or call us directly.

Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between a bathroom fitter and a bathroom contractor?+
A bathroom fitter typically installs the sanitaryware and does light plumbing. A bathroom contractor manages the entire project — design, structural changes, plumbing, electrics, tiling, joinery, decoration and sign-off — with the trades and insurance to back it. We're a full bathroom contractor, not just a fitter.
Are you a licensed bathroom contractor?+
Yes. We're a limited company (Bathroom Fitters Aberdeen Ltd), fully insured for £5m public liability, our plumbers are Gas Safe registered and our electricians are NICEIC certified. Every job carries a written 10-year workmanship guarantee.
How do I check a bathroom contractor is legitimate?+
Ask for their Companies House number, insurance certificate, Gas Safe / NICEIC numbers, and a list of recent local projects you can call. Any reputable contractor will hand these over without hesitation. Ours are on the About page.
Do you handle building control and warrant applications?+
Yes, where required. Most bathroom refits in Aberdeen don't need a building warrant, but wet room conversions, house extensions with new bathrooms, or works involving structural changes usually do — and we manage the application, drawings and inspections end to end.
What areas do your contractors cover?+
The whole Aberdeen City and Aberdeenshire area — AB10 through AB25, plus AB32, AB39, AB41, AB42 and AB51. See the full list on our areas we cover page.
