Bathroom fitters for new-build homes in Mitton

New-build bathrooms (10–25 years old) often need refitting earlier than expected. Developer-spec suites, basic tile schemes, and underwhelming brassware combine with a layout that's predictable and a substrate that's actually pretty straightforward to work with.

  • Plasterboard substrates with proper waterproof backing already in place — quicker prep

Why it matters in Mitton
