The best bathroom projects settle the important choices before the old room is removed. Use this checklist to turn your ideas into a clear plan.

List what the room needs

Write down who uses the room and what does not work now. Decide if you need a bath, more storage or easier access to the shower.

Set priorities before products

Separate the things you need from the things you would like. Safe fitting, protection from leaks and a good extractor fan come first. You can then choose mirrors, taps and furniture that fit your budget.

  • Measure and photograph the current room
  • Note windows, doors and plumbing points
  • Choose bath, shower or combined layout
  • Plan storage, lighting and the extractor fan
  • Confirm what is included, the timing and payments

Check permissions when the layout changes

A simple replacement may not need a building warrant. Moving walls, making large drain changes or creating a new bathroom may need one. Check with Aberdeen City Council before work starts.
