Town House Bathrooms · Seafront Flats · Walk-in Showers
Bathroom renovations across La Vila Joiosa, from tight rooms in tall town houses to flats with sea air at the window, rebuilt properly from the pipes outwards instead of merely retiled.
Bathrooms in Villajoyosa are as varied as its streets. In the old town they tend to be squeezed into leftover corners, sometimes added to a house long after it was built. In flats near the front they are often original, small and tired.
What they share is age behind the surface. Pipes may be patched, floors may slope and walls may hold moisture. A new bathroom has to deal with all of that, otherwise the fresh tiles are only a cover over the same old trouble.
We do the design, the structural work, the plumbing, electrics, tiling and finishing ourselves. Our quotation is free, and at the visit we explain what we find in plain terms, with photographs where they help, so you understand every choice we put to you.
Tight spaces
In town houses the bathroom may sit on a half landing or under a sloping stair. Fitting a bath, basin and toilet into such a room often leaves nowhere to stand, whereas a walk-in shower and a wall-hung toilet can make it usable.
Drainage decides a lot. Moving a toilet depends on where the waste pipe goes and how far it can fall. We check that during the first visit and report back honestly on what the house permits, even when it is less than you hoped.
Light and air matter too. Where there is no window, a well-chosen extractor becomes essential. Light and air matter too. Where there is no window at all, a well-chosen extractor becomes essential rather than optional, and we place it with the ducting in mind.
Old plumbing
The best moment to renew pipework is while the walls are open. Old supply pipes, joints that have been repaired several times and a basin waste that gurgles are all signs that the room needs more than a cosmetic change.
We strip back, test and replace what has reached the end of its life, then waterproof the shower area before any tile goes on. That order protects the room, and the neighbours if there are any below.

Where the wall has absorbed moisture, we let it dry and treat the cause before decorating. Where the wall has absorbed moisture, we let it dry and treat the cause before decorating. Skipping that step is the usual reason new paint peels within a season.
Sea air
Salt reaches fittings even indoors, so we prefer taps, screens and fixings made for humid conditions. Porcelain tiles clean easily and do not stain, and grout lines should be kept to a sensible minimum.

Bathroom floors need to grip when wet, particularly where sandy feet arrive from the beach. Slip-resistant tiles with correct falls to the drain suit that well.

How it works
A visit comes first, so we can measure up and hear how the bathroom is used. The written quotation that follows costs you nothing. Once the layout is approved, dates are agreed and the materials are ordered ahead of the start.
Strip-out starts the work, then pipework through electrics, waterproofing, tiling and fitting to a final inspection, with photographs along the way. Our guarantee on the finished work is limited to what the quotation records, and we will explain it. Questions are welcome at any point.
Questions
Often yes. A walk-in shower, wall-hung fittings and careful planning of the door can make small rooms workable. We check drainage first and tell you what the building allows. We have seen the alternative, and it is rarely pleasant.
Yes, where they are worn. We open the walls, test the pipework and replace what is needed before tiling, so the new room does not conceal old faults that would reappear later. You will have the answer before any order is placed.
Some noise is unavoidable. We plan noisy tasks sensibly, protect the common areas and tell you early if the community of owners in your Villajoyosa block needs to be informed. Where we are unsure, we check with the supplier first.
Yes. Pictures arrive as the job moves along, we call when you must choose, and the keys can rest with us until the home is ready to use again. It is a common arrangement for owners who live elsewhere.
