Bathroom fitters in Newcastle upon Tyne: Renters vs homeowners

If you own your home

As a homeowner, you’re responsible for all bathroom upgrades and repairs. You don’t usually need planning permission, but major plumbing or structural work may need Building Regulations approval. Check with your local council if you're unsure.

If you rent your home

Renters in Newcastle should always contact their landlord or letting agent before arranging any bathroom work. They’re typically responsible for repairs, unless the damage was caused by you. If it's urgent – like a leaking toilet or broken shower – report it straight away.

Looking for a fitter to work with your landlord? Many Newcastle bathroom fitters on Checkatrade are used to working with landlords and property managers.
