The Short Answer

What a Bathroom Renovation With Primo Covers

Bathrooms carry water, so what sits behind the tiles matters as much as what you see. Scope is set at a site visit rather than from a standard package.

What is replaced

Sanitaryware, mixers, shower systems, vanity units, mirrors, tiling and accessories.

What sits behind

Waterproofing layers, falls to the drain, and the plumbing and electrical routes serving the room.

Basis of quotation

Confirmed after inspection. Condition behind the tiles and the finish level you choose both change the scope.

Your Options

Refresh, Replace or Strip Back?

Three very different pieces of work are all called a bathroom renovation. Use this to place yours before asking for a quotation.

What you are describingWhat that usually means
Tiling is sound but fittings look datedA refresh. Sanitaryware, mixers, vanity and accessories are renewed while the tiling and waterproofing stay in place. The least disruptive option.
Grout is staining or a few tiles have failedLocalised repair and regrouting, provided the layer beneath is intact. Whether it is intact is established at the site visit.
You want a different layout, or the shower movedA strip-back. Once the drain or supply positions move, waterproofing must be reinstated across the affected area rather than patched.
There is damp on the other side of the wall, or on the ceiling belowThe cause is investigated before any finishing work. Re-tiling over a failed membrane means doing the bathroom twice — see waterproofing.
Several bathrooms are involved across a propertyThey are commonly at different stages of wear, so each is scoped on its own condition — see villa renovation.
Process

How a Bathroom Renovation Runs

  • Enquiry

    Send photographs of the bathroom, approximate dimensions and your area in Dubai.

  • Site visit

    Measurements taken, condition of tiling, falls and services assessed, access confirmed.

  • Written scope and quotation

    What is included, what is excluded and the finish level assumed, itemised so it can be compared.

  • Selections confirmed

    Tiling, sanitaryware, mixers and vanity agreed before anything is ordered.

  • Strip-out, waterproofing and installation

    Existing finishes removed, waterproofing reinstated where required, then tiling and fittings installed.

  • Completion walkthrough

    Fittings checked, the work inspected with you and any snagging agreed before handover.

Quotation

What Affects Your Quotation

Bathroom renovation is quoted after inspection because two bathrooms of the same size can carry very different scopes.

Room size and tiled area

The measured floor and wall area to be tiled, not just the footprint.

Tile and fitting selection

Material and fitting choices are usually the largest variable in a bathroom quotation.

Whether services move

Relocating the drain, shower or basin adds plumbing work and further waterproofing.

Condition found

The state of the waterproofing layer is only confirmed once the existing finishes come off.

Number of bathrooms

Several bathrooms in one property are scoped individually on their own condition.

Access and working hours

Restricted access or limited working hours changes how the work is sequenced.

Primo does not publish fixed bathroom prices, because a quotation given without seeing the bathroom would not be reliable.

What We Need From You

What to Send With Your Enquiry

The more of this you can send up front, the more useful the first conversation will be.

  • Photographs of the bathroom from two or three angles
  • Approximate room dimensions
  • Whether you want the layout kept or changed
  • Any signs of damp, staining or leaks
  • How many bathrooms are involved
  • Your area in Dubai and whether the property is occupied
Why Primo

Why Choose Primo for a Bathroom Renovation

Primo has operated as a maintenance and fit-out contractor in Dubai since 2012, across both residential and commercial property.

Waterproofing is part of the scope

Waterproofing sits within Primo’s own service range rather than being handed to a separate trade, so the layer beneath the tiling is part of the same contract.

Scoped before it is priced

Quotations follow a site visit rather than a phone estimate, so the figure you receive reflects the bathroom as it actually is.

  • Operating since 2012
  • Residential and commercial
  • Single point of contact
  • Written scope before works begin

Ongoing upkeep can be arranged separately — see annual maintenance contracts. Other services are listed on the fit-outs and renovations hub.

Questions

Bathroom Renovation Questions

Does the whole bathroom need stripping out?

Not always. Where tiling and the layer beneath are sound, fittings can be renewed without removing the tiling. Whether that is the case is established at the site visit.

Is waterproofing replaced as part of the work?

Where the existing finishes are removed or services are moved, waterproofing is reinstated across the affected area. Where tiling stays in place, the existing layer is left undisturbed.

Can the shower or basin be moved?

Yes, but it changes the scope. Moving drain or supply positions means altering plumbing routes and reinstating waterproofing rather than patching it.

Does Primo handle the plumbing and electrical work?

Yes. Electrical and plumbing are services Primo offers, so they can be included in the bathroom scope and sequenced with the rest of the work under one point of contact.

Do you provide a written quotation?

Yes. A written scope and quotation follow the site visit, setting out what is included, what is excluded and the finish level assumed.

How do I get a bathroom renovation quotation?

Send photographs, approximate dimensions and your area in Dubai on WhatsApp. A site visit is arranged before the quotation is issued.
