Bathroom Renovation in Reșița

About this service

A bathroom renovation is the most complex job per square metre in any home, because within 4–8 square metres you have plumbing, electrics, waterproofing, tiling, and sanitaryware installation all overlapping. A complete team strips out the old tiling and fittings, removes the debris, reworks the water and waste runs, installs electrical circuits for sockets, lighting, and the washing machine, applies waterproofing to the wet area, lays screed with the correct fall to the floor drain, tiles the walls and floor, installs the shower enclosure or bath, WC, basin, and taps, then finishes with sanitary silicone and fits the mirror, furniture, and accessories. The order of operations matters enormously: omitted waterproofing or an incorrect fall is paid for a few years later, with water reaching the flat below. On SmallJobs you'll find teams experienced in complete renovations, with real reviews and competitive rates.

What to check before hiring a bathroom renovation

Request a pressure test on the pipework and a water test for the fall, before tiling
Keep the WC in its current position if budget matters — moving it is the most expensive operation
Buy tiles with a 10–15% surplus and keep the leftovers for future repairs
Ask for a staged quote with quantities, not a lump sum — otherwise you can't compare offers
Allow a 10–15% contingency in your budget for problems found after strip-out
Notify the association and neighbours before starting, especially if the stack water will be turned off

Frequently Asked Questions

What order do bathroom works follow?

Strip-out and removal, reworking plumbing and electrics, pressure testing, levelling render, waterproofing, screed with fall, wall and floor tiling, grouting, sanitaryware installation, then furniture and accessories. Reversing the stages, particularly the waterproofing, compromises the entire job.

Do I have to move the plumbing from its current position?

Not necessarily. Keeping existing positions significantly reduces cost and duration. Moving the WC is the most expensive change, because a continuous fall to the stack must be maintained, and in flats the possible distance is limited. Moving the basin or washing machine is far simpler.

Do I need building association approval to renovate in Reșița?

No permit is needed for work inside the flat, but associations in Reșița usually require advance notice because of noise and working hours. If the work touches the shared water or waste stack, the association's consent becomes mandatory, as does notifying neighbours affected by the water being turned off.

Who buys the materials, me or the team?

Most commonly the client buys finishes and sanitaryware — because these are aesthetic choices — while the team brings consumables: adhesives, grout, waterproofing, screed, silicone. Ask upfront for an exact materials list with quantities, so you can order correctly with the necessary 10–15% surplus.

What happens if problems are found after strip-out?

It's a frequent situation: corroded pipework, loose render, mould in the wall, or degraded screed. A proper quote allows a contingency margin, and the team must inform you and present the additional cost before continuing. Ask for photographs of the problem found.

Shower enclosure or bath, which is better?

A shower saves space, is more accessible for older people, and uses less water. A bath remains preferred in families with small children. A level-access wet room shower looks modern but requires a flawlessly executed fall and extended waterproofing, so it costs more in labour.
