Bathroom fitters in Manchester: Renters vs homeowners

For homeowners:

If you own your home, the buck stops with you. You're responsible for the costs, permissions and outcomes of any bathroom renovation in Manchester. Make sure to:

• Check building regulations if altering plumbing or structure
• Notify your insurer if doing major work
• Get multiple quotes before signing off

For renters:

In most cases, bathroom issues should be reported to your landlord or letting agent. They’re responsible for repairs or upgrades unless you’ve been given written permission to arrange them yourself.

Even minor updates (like installing a new showerhead or vanity unit) should be cleared first - especially if you live in a rental property with maintenance agreements.
