How Long Does An Office Toilet Refurbishment Take?
Most office toilet refurbishments take between one and three weeks, depending on the size of the washroom and the scope of work involved. We'll give you an accurate timescale as part of your free quote.
Do I Need To Close My Office Toilets During The Refurbishment?
In most cases, the affected washroom will be out of use during the works, but we plan around your business hours wherever possible and can phase the project to keep at least one facility open if needed.
How Many toilets does my office legally need?
The number of toilets required depends on how many employees use the workplace at any one time, as set out in the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992. We can advise on compliance as part of your refurbishment.
How Do I Know If My Office Toilet Needs Refurbishing?
There are a few clear signs it's time to refurbish. Persistent bad smells that cleaning won't shift often point to worn seals, ageing pipework or flooring that's absorbed moisture over time. Cracked, stained or loose tiles and grout look unprofessional and can become a hygiene issue once moisture gets underneath. Frequent breakdowns or leaks, where the same fittings need repeated call-outs, usually mean the root cause hasn't been fixed. Outdated cubicles and fittings can also look out of place if the rest of your office has moved on.
It's also worth checking that you have enough toilets for your current headcount, since this is a compliance requirement under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992, and that your accessible facilities meet current standards under the Equality Act 2010.
Other signs include poor ventilation or lighting, visible water damage on walls or ceilings, worn or slippery flooring, and a washroom that no longer reflects your brand to staff, clients or visitors.
If any of this sounds familiar, it's a good time to get a free assessment of your washroom from our team.

Yes, we can design and fit accessible facilities alongside your standard office toilets to ensure your workplace meets its legal obligations around inclusivity.
