Cardiff bathroom and Building Regulations context
Bathroom alterations can involve controlled fittings, drainage, ventilation and electrical work
Cardiff Building Control specifically lists installing a WC and alterations to controlled services or fittings among work that can require Building Regulations approval. A complete bathroom project should therefore separate decorative finish from regulated plumbing, drainage, ventilation and electrical elements.
Installing or altering controlled fittings can require approval
Cardiff Council says Building Regulations approval is required for work such as materially altering a building or extending or altering a controlled service or fitting, giving installation of a WC as an example. If a bathroom layout is being moved rather than simply replaced like-for-like, establish the approval route before closing walls and floors.

Cardiff Building Control inspects drains during regulated work
Cardiff Council's approval process lists drains laid, drains covered and back-filled ready for testing among the inspection stages that can apply to building work. For bathroom projects involving new drainage runs, ask who is coordinating inspection and completion evidence.

Describe what is moving, not just what is being replaced
A like-for-like suite swap is different from relocating a WC, creating a wet room or moving drainage through a floor. Mark the existing and proposed positions where possible.
Waterproofing and ventilation belong in the scope. Ask how tanking, extraction, pipework, electrical zones, floor preparation and testing are handled rather than comparing only the visible suite and tiles.

Before you hire
What should you check before hiring a bathroom specialist?
A durable bathroom depends on the hidden wet-area and service work as much as the visible tiles and fittings.
Confirm waterproofing
Ask how shower and wet areas are prepared before tiles or panels go on.
Plan ventilation
Clarify extractor requirements and how moisture will be removed during normal use.
Identify regulated work
Ask who handles electrical and other regulated elements and what completion documentation is provided.
