Why do we insist on full soldered copper pipework beneath our sub-floors? In this site update, Allan breaks down the trade standards behind our pipework layout for this Edinburgh bathroom renovation.

While push-fit connections have their place above ground, when you're building a bathroom to last 20+ years beneath tile boards and sub-floors, nothing beats precision soldered copper. It eliminates hidden movement, prevents weeping joints, and protects your home against catastrophic under floor leaks.

From upgraded 50mm waste lines to dedicated copper runs for basins and washing machines, structural integrity is built in long before any tiles go down.

The official trophy has arrived!

Following on from our recent award announcement, it was great to officially collect our award for Bathroom Renovation Company of the Year at the Scotland Prestige Awards.

Building this business around high standards, zero shortcuts, and complete project ownership isn't always the easy route, but seeing that hard work recognised makes every late finish worth it.

A massive shoutout goes to the top-quality team behind Jacobsen Bathrooms. From the first-fix plumbing and structural joinery to the electricals, precision tiling and final polish, this award is a direct reflection of the skill and pride everyone brings to site every single day.

Thank you again to all of our clients across Edinburgh & the Lothians for trusting us with your homes and ongoing support.

Time to get back on site and keep raising the bar.

New week, new project!

We are officially on site in Edinburgh, taking this space right back to bare studs and joists.
While we aren't giving away the design details just yet, we're replacing this tired setup with full structural prep, hidden trade engineering, and a luxury finish custom-tailored for our client.

Over the next couple of weeks, we'll be taking care of:
- Complete strip-out & timber framing checks
- Sequenced first-fix plumbing & electricals
- Full Jacko tanking & floor leveling
Stay tuned to see how this space transforms!

Feature tiling like a full-height black chevron wall leaves zero room for error. If the underlying stud frame or waterproof backing board is out by even a couple of millimeters, every joint misaligns, and white grout will show every flaw.

High-end period and modern styling only works when the trade prep behind the scenes is flawless.

How we approach it at Jacobsen Bathrooms:

- Precision Wall Levelling: Laser checking every stud and sub-board before tiling begins.

- Waterproof Sub-Structure: Jacko tanking systems engineered to protect the building fabric.

- Sequenced First-Fix Plumbing: Positioned precisely to complement symmetry with exposed brassware and high-level cisterns.

We don't do quick fixes or half-measures, we manage every single detail from bare studs to final polish.

Floating vanities look incredible in modern bathrooms, but only if the structural prep behind the plasterboard is done right.

A standard plasterboard wall cannot support a 40kg stone basin when filled with water. Cheap installations rely on basic wall plugs or light studs, which inevitably sag or pull away over time.

Here is how we sequence it at Jacobsen Bathrooms:

- Timber Noggins & Framing: We strip back to the studs and build custom structural timber reinforcement tailored exactly to your vanity's mounting points.

- Jacko/Wedi Board: Waterproof, heavy-duty backing boards engineered for weight and moisture resistance.

- Precision Levelling: Laser-levelled before a single tile goes on, ensuring zero strain on pipework.

High-end design is only as good as the trade prep behind it.

Social media only shows the highlight reel... but the real work happens when the screen is off.

When we go quiet on here, it usually means we're 100% locked in on site, managing trade sequencing, ensuring waterproofing membranes are curing perfectly, and keeping project schedules running seamlessly.

A luxury bathroom isn't just made by the tiles you see at the end. It's built on:

* Precision prep: No shortcuts behind the plasterboard.
* Trade coordination: Plumbers, sparks, joiners, and tilers working in perfect sync.
* Zero chaos: Clear scopes, clean sites, and zero guesswork for the homeowner.

We're back in action and gearing up for another busy week across Edinburgh.

Why do so many bathroom renovations go over budget or delayed?

It almost always comes down to trade sequencing.

A luxury finish isn't just about picking pretty tiles or brushed brass taps, it's about what happens behind the walls before those tiles ever go up:

1st Fix precision: Plumbers & electricians aligning feeds to exact millimeter specs.

Waterproofing without shortcuts: Full tape & membrane tanking in all wet zones.

Proper trade gaps: Allowing plaster & levelling compound to fully cure before tiling.

At Jacobsen Bathrooms, every single job is fully scheduled and specified trade by trade before we even step foot on site. No guessing, no hidden costs, just seamless ex*****on.

We recently transformed two bathrooms in the same Edinburgh property, bringing bold personality and precision craftsmanship to every corner.

Space 1: Playful terrazzo features paired with soft blue tiles, brushed gold fixtures, and a floating vanity.

Space 2: Intricate mosaic feature tiling set against clean white herringbone walls, brushed brass details, and a spacious walk-in shower.

Both spaces were fully waterproofed (tanked) and fitted with custom precision finishes to ensure they look stunning and stand the test of time.

Which style is more your vibe: 1 Terrazzo or 2 Mosaic & Herringbone?

Save this before your next bathroom renovation!

Cutting corners during the prep phase might save a few hours today, but it costs thousands down the line. The real quality in a high-end bathroom is always in what happens behind the tiles.

Which of these have you spotted in a house before?
