Bathroom Renovation in Drobeta-Turnu Severin

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

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
Never skip waterproofing to save money — it's the most expensive saving possible
Ask for photographs of the pipe routes before they're covered by screed and tiling
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

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the bathroom be renovated without removing all the tiles?

Tiling over existing tiles is possible if they're perfectly bonded and flat, using special adhesive and a bonding primer. It saves time and debris but raises the floor level by 1–2 centimetres and doesn't allow the waterproofing to be redone. It's a compromise, not a recommendation for a full renovation.

What should a bathroom renovation quote contain?

A list of operations by stage, estimated quantities for each — square metres of tiling, linear metres of pipework — labour separated from materials, the completion timescale, staged payment terms, and a contingency margin. A quote showing a single lump sum makes any comparison impossible.

How do I check the quality at the end?

Check tiling flatness with a straightedge, grout line uniformity, silicone sealing at all junctions, drainage by pouring water on the floor, and the absence of voids under tiles by tapping lightly. Also check tap pressure and that there are no leaks under the basin after a few hours of use.

What warranty do I get on a bathroom renovation?

Labour is usually warranted for 2–5 years, and some teams offer longer on waterproofing. Request the warranty in writing, along with the photographs of the pipework before it was covered. Those images are the most valuable documents you can hold for any future work.

How much does a bathroom renovation cost in Drobeta-Turnu Severin?

For a 4–6 square metre bathroom, complete labour typically falls between 4,200 and 16,000 RON, depending on area and complexity. Materials — tiles, sanitaryware, taps, furniture — add typically 6,000–20,000 RON depending on the quality chosen. A realistic total budget starts from 12,000 RON.

How long does a bathroom renovation take?

A standard flat bathroom takes 12–20 working days. The stages can't be compressed indefinitely: screed needs drying time, waterproofing needs to cure, and adhesive and grout need to set. A team promising completion in 5 days is skipping essential technical waiting times.
