When it comes to bathroom installation, there are plenty of important things to take care of. Whether it comes to the tiling, fixtures, joinery, plumbing, electrical wiring or other aspects, you have to ensure that everything is in top order. And when you hire a bathroom installation Oxford contractor, the process can get just easier. Here are 5 useful tips that can let you hire the right contractor for your bathroom installation requirements.
Check the previous work samples
Do not hire a bathroom installation contractor on an impulse. It is important for you to take a look at some of the past projects of the bathroom installation Oxford contractor, and ensure that he has got what it takes when it comes to the setup. You need a contractor with at least 7 – 10 years of experience, professionals with ample expertise, gear and equipment, as well as the know-how to install different types of bathrooms – be it standard ones or disabled-friendly bathroom spaces.
Check the aesthetics
If you tend to invite guests and visitors over to your home every now and then, an aesthetic, bigger and more functional bathroom is what you need. Take a look at the portfolio of the contractor and find out whether its past projects have been done aesthetically.
Look at the team in action
Before you hire the bathroom installation Oxford contractor, you need to insist in seeing the team while at work.
- When the installation team arrives at a property, do the installers place carpet protectors to reduce potential property damage, switch the water off and drain the central heating structure?
- Are the different pieces – such as toilet roll holders, cabinetry, blinds etc uninstalled and the existing suite – such as toilet, basin, shower, bath & bath screen, shower tray & enclosure, bath etc uninstalled and kept in a trash bin?
All these things can point to a by-the-book approach to the job.
Know the reputation
It is a good idea to check the kind of reputation that the contractor enjoys, and whether it is known to be an honest service provider, charging fair rates for the bathroom installation Oxford projects. Check whether the contractor has got excellent ratings and reviews on sites such as Better Business Bureau (BBB) and Trustpilot. Find out whether the reviews on Google Business for the contractor are mostly positive.
Compare the quotes
Get quotes from at least 5 – 7 contractors out there, and compare the same in order to check which bathroom installation Oxford service provider is most affordable.
