  4. Receive a written bathroom scope

  5. Programme first fix and waterproofing first

    Accepted works sequence first fix and waterproofing before finishes, with freeholder or occupancy constraints for Kingston written into the method.

  6. Fit-out, decoration and snagging

    Sanitaryware, tiling and decoration complete the bathroom renovation package under written terms for the Kingston unit — delivered in-house, not via a third-party marketplace.
