Kaldewei bathroom installation in Stoke Poges
Stoke Poges is a village of large plots and substantial houses, best known for Stoke Park's golf and country club, with properties ranging from older period detached homes to more recent executive-style builds set well back on sizeable gardens. That extra room to manoeuvre suits Kaldewei's titanium-enamelled steel baths and shower trays well: because the material is pressed rather than cast or moulded, getting an even, accurate bearing across the full base matters more than the flex-control an acrylic bath support needs, and the larger layouts common in Stoke Poges homes give us the space to get that detail right.
What we install from Kaldewei
We fit Kaldewei's range of steel baths and shower trays for clients across Stoke Poges who have already chosen their products. Kaldewei's baths and trays are pressed from titanium-enamelled steel rather than cast or moulded in the way most sanitaryware is made, which gives a different feel underfoot and a harder, glossier enamel surface than acrylic. You buy the bath, shower tray, brassware, tiles and furniture; we handle the strip-out, first-fix plumbing, installation, tiling around the unit, and the final snagging. Because it's fit-only, you keep control of the product budget and the brand, and we focus on getting the installation right.
Installation considerations specific to Kaldewei
Because a Kaldewei bath or shower tray is a rigid pressed-steel unit, the installation detail is less about preventing flex — as it would be with an acrylic bath on a flexible support frame — and more about making sure the full base is bearing evenly across a true, level surface before the unit goes down. Any high spot or gap under the steel will eventually print through as noise or movement, so we check the subfloor and support frame carefully rather than relying on packers to compensate afterwards. The enamel surface is hard-wearing but chip-sensitive during the build itself, so we protect it properly while first-fix plumbing, tiling and other trades are still working around it, rather than fitting it last and hoping for the best.
Working in Stoke Poges
The housing stock around Stoke Poges — from older period detached houses to newer executive-style builds, many set well back from the road on sizeable gardens — generally gives us far more room to work with on layout than a smaller or more tightly built property would allow. Relocating a waste run to suit a Kaldewei freestanding bath, widening a doorway for level access, or adding a second en-suite off a principal bedroom rarely runs into the structural constraints a terraced house would present. That flexibility doesn't change the fit-only process, but it does mean more layout options are usually on the table from the first survey.
The fit-only process
We start with a paid survey at £125, where we assess the room, the existing plumbing and waste runs, access, and anything specific to a Kaldewei installation such as subfloor levelness and support detail. From there we agree the installation plan and price — fit-only installs start from £3,500 depending on scope. Once your Kaldewei bath or shower tray and other products are on site, we carry out the strip-out, first-fix, installation, tiling and plumbing, and finish with a full snagging pass before handover. You stay in control of what you've bought; we're responsible for how it goes in.

Frequently asked questions
We're fit-only, so you buy the Kaldewei product directly — we don't supply sanitaryware, brassware, tiles or furniture. We handle everything involved in getting it installed correctly.
Kaldewei baths and shower trays are pressed from titanium-enamelled steel rather than cast or moulded, so they're rigid rather than flexible. The key detail is an even, accurate bearing across the full base, rather than the flex-control an acrylic support frame is designed for.
Yes. Many of the period detached homes around Stoke Poges have the room to adjust layout where needed, and we assess the existing subfloor and waste runs during the survey to make sure the installation detail is right for a steel unit.
Installs start from £3,500 depending on scope, following a £125 paid survey where we confirm the detail and give you a firm price.
The enamel is hard and durable once in place, but it is chip-sensitive while other trades are still working around it. We protect it properly through first-fix, tiling and finishing so it reaches handover undamaged.
We carry out repairs on high-end homes, with a minimum charge of £200 and a £500 minimum for emergency call-outs. We don't offer regrouting as a standalone service.
