Bathroom fitters in Leicester: Renters vs homeowners

If you’re a homeowner:

You’re responsible for organising and paying for bathroom renovations. Whether it’s a full upgrade or minor update, always get a written quote and make sure everything is clearly itemised. If you’re moving plumbing or electrics, you may need building regs sign-off too.

If you’re renting:

The landlord is typically responsible for repairs, maintenance, and replacing broken fixtures. If you're hoping to upgrade something cosmetic, like taps or tiles, make sure you have written permission first.

Some Leicester bathroom fitters are happy to send landlord-friendly quotes - just ask when you post your job.
