Start with the way through the room

A modern room needs to work when someone opens the door, steps out of the shower or reaches into a drawer. Bring photographs of the entrance, window and existing fittings to the consultation. We can discuss how those fixed features affect the arrangement before you choose individual products.

Compare the dimensions of actual fittings

Two vanity units with the same advertised width can have different depths and drawer openings. A bath, shower screen or toilet also needs to be considered with the space around it. Product links help us compare your preferred options against the measured room.

Give everyday storage a place

List the items you use each morning, the towels you want close by and anything you would rather keep out of sight. That is a useful starting point for choosing furniture and discussing a niche or shelf. Storage should be planned with the fittings rather than added wherever a gap remains.

Connect the layout with the installation

Your preferred arrangement needs suitable water, waste and electrical provisions. We review those practical details at the survey and explain the agreed alterations in the quotation. The visual planner is a way to collect preferences; its example layouts are not a measured design for your home.

Bring one preferred arrangement and one alternative

You do not need a CAD drawing. Mark the fittings you would like to retain and describe what feels awkward now. A free home consultation lets us compare the options in your actual room.
