Bathroom Renovation Services
Ascot Decorators manage the decoration phase of full bathroom renovations across Ascot and the surrounding villages, from strip-out assessment to tanking-junction finishing.
Strip-Out Wall Assessment
When an old bathroom suite is removed, the walls behind often reveal problems. Lime plaster in Edwardian properties may show damp patches from decades of trapped moisture. Uneven boarding or failed adhesive from previous tile installations needs stripping back.
We assess surface condition after strip-out. If lime plaster is present and sound, we prepare it with breathable primers. If the surface is unstable, we recommend re-skimming or boarding before decoration begins.
Moisture-Tolerant Primer and Coatings
New plasterboard or re-skimmed walls in a bathroom need primers that tolerate high humidity. Standard emulsion will blister within months if moisture gets behind the finish.
Ceilings and walls that will not be tiled receive breathable coatings formulated for high-moisture environments. Areas around showers and baths are left for tiling or tanking by the specialist trades.
Tanking Junction Decoration
After tiling completes, the junction between tanked areas and painted surfaces needs careful finishing. We prepare edges, apply compatible coatings, and finish junctions so the transition is clean. This work happens after the tiler finishes but before final fixings go on.
Sequencing After Second-Fix Trades
Plumbers fit pipework, electricians install lighting and extraction, tilers complete wet areas. Decoration sits at the end of that sequence but must protect finished surfaces while completing the room. Preparation and priming happen after plumbing and before tiling; final coats go on after tiling completes.
Period Bathroom Challenges in Sunninghill
Edwardian detached homes in Sunninghill often have principal bathrooms with original cast-iron baths and ceramic pedestal fittings. Strip-out reveals lime plaster walls and uneven floorboards.

Here’s How It Works
1. Site Visit After Strip-Out
We assess wall condition, identify any damp or surface instability, and plan the decoration sequence with your other trades.
2. Surface Preparation
After plumbing and electrical work completes, we prepare walls and ceilings. Lime plaster gets breathable primer. New plasterboard receives moisture-tolerant coatings.
3. Tiling and Second-Fix Coordination
We step back while tiling happens, then return to complete tanking junctions and painted surfaces after the tiler finishes.
4. Final Coats and Protection
We apply final coats to ceilings and walls, finish all junctions, and protect completed surfaces while sanitaryware and fixings are installed.
5. Final Inspection
We check all surfaces, remove any marks from final trades, and hand over a finished bathroom.
Bathroom Renovation Costs in Ascot
A principal bathroom full renovation in an Edwardian detached home in Sunninghill typically costs GBP 14,000 to GBP 22,000. The decoration portion alone usually accounts for GBP 2,000 to GBP 3,500 of that total. Call 01344 964866 for a fixed-price quote.
For a typical family bathroom renovation with standard suite and tiled wet areas, budget GBP 2,000 to GBP 3,000 for the decoration element. For a principal bathroom in an Edwardian property, budget GBP 2,800 to GBP 3,500.
Surface Condition After Strip-Out
Lime plaster that needs re-skimming adds time and materials. Uneven boarding or failed adhesive from previous work requires more preparation.
Room Size and Configuration
A large bathroom with separate shower enclosure and bath has more tanking junctions and more painted surface area than a compact suite.
Period Features and Access
Protecting original cornicing above a bath recess or working around cast-iron fittings adds time. Narrow doorways in older properties slow material movement.
Trade Insight
Most bathroom renovations involve three separate decoration visits coordinated with the plumber, tiler and electrician to keep finishes protected.
For decoration across a whole-house renovation programme including multiple bathrooms, see our house painting service.
