Bathroom Renovation on the Costa del Sol

A bathroom renovation starts with a workable layout, suitable materials and a clear scope. We review the space, prepare a written quote and agree the planning before work begins.

Walk-In Showers - Open, Clean, Easy to Maintain

One of the most common requests we get is a proper walk-in shower. No shower tray, no curtain, just a seamless floor with a linear drain. It makes the room feel bigger, it is easier to clean, and it looks good for years. We work with floor-level drainage systems, frameless glass panels, and continuous tile or microcement finishes.

Frameless glass, built-in niche

Single fixed glass panel, no frame - and a tiled wall niche for shampoo and soap. No plastic shelves, no clutter, no cleaning hassle.

Matte black or brass fittings, linear drain

Brushed brass or matte black hardware against a warm neutral tile - and a linear floor drain flush with the surface. Details that make the whole room feel considered.

Large-format tiles, minimal grout

60x120 cm or larger porcelain tiles laid continuously from floor into the shower - calmer, cleaner, no fussy grout joints.

Tiles - What We See Working Well Right Now

Tiles have changed a lot in the last few years. The trend is moving away from small, heavily grouted formats toward larger slabs that give the room a calmer, cleaner feel. If you are not sure what to choose, we are happy to look at options together - we know what holds up in the Spanish climate.

Ribbed feature wall, warm tones

Textured or ribbed tiles on one wall add depth without going overboard. Sand, linen, terracotta, soft grey - warm tones that feel right in the Mediterranean light.

We know what holds up here

We compare finishes for their intended use: cleaning, moisture, grip and exposure to sunlight. The right choice is more than how a tile looks in a photograph.

Stone-look porcelain, large format

Rectified porcelain in a stone or concrete look - 80x80 or 60x120, laid continuously from floor to shower. Durable, practical, and looks right at home in the Spanish climate.

Microcement in the bathroom

Microcement creates a continuous finish on suitable floors and walls. Existing tiles can sometimes remain, but the surface, moisture protection and required preparation must be assessed first.

Wide range of colours and finishes

Colour, texture and sheen depend on the chosen system. Ask to see a sample and confirm the specification for the intended wet area.

Worth knowing before you decide

The protective finish needs care and may require resealing. Timing depends on the installed system and use. Compare these maintenance needs with tiles before choosing.

Over existing tiles in many cases

Existing tiles may be retained when they are stable and compatible with the selected system. Necessary repairs and preparation belong in the written scope.

Spa Touches and Lighting - Small Details, Big Difference

You do not need to spend a fortune to make a bathroom feel like a proper retreat. A few well-chosen details make a bigger difference than people expect. Lighting in particular is almost always underestimated.

Rainfall shower, heated towel rail

A rainfall shower head combined with a hand shower is one of the most popular upgrades we do. Add a heated towel rail and the bathroom starts feeling genuinely comfortable year-round.

Freestanding bath, if the space allows

A freestanding bath becomes the focal point of the room - it works best with the right floor space and ceiling height. We will tell you honestly if it suits your bathroom or if the space is better used differently.

LED mirrors and layered lighting

LED-lit mirrors with anti-fog, combined with a warm downlight or two. The single overhead light is the enemy of a good bathroom atmosphere - layered lighting fixes this completely.

Practical Info - What to Expect

The duration depends on the layout, installations, materials and preparation. After the visit, we agree a schedule and how you will receive progress updates. Changes are discussed before the next step.
