Bathroom remodels are small rooms with dense scope: waterproofing, plumbing, tile, ventilation, and electrical all share a few square metres, and a mistake in any one of them shows up fast. The written scope matters more here than in larger rooms, because there is nowhere for an omission to hide.
Accessibility features deserve the same written treatment as finishes: a walk-in shower, grab bars, a seat, and a level entry are not extras to be assumed — they are scope items with specific products, placements, and costs, and they should be named in the quote.
Scope items to get in writing
- Waterproofing: system, coverage, and warranty — the most important line in a shower quote.
- Shower type: walk-in, curbed, or tub conversion, with drain and door details.
- Accessibility: grab bar placement, seat, handheld shower, and entry height, each specified.
- Tile and finishes: material, grout, and who supplies what.
- Ventilation and electrical: fan, lighting, and heated elements, if any.
Questions people ask
Is a walk-in shower always better?
Not always. It depends on the household, the plumbing layout, and whether a tub is needed elsewhere in the home. Decide on use first, then on style.
What is the most common bathroom regret?
Under-specifying waterproofing and storage. Both are cheap to plan and expensive to fix after tile is down.
