Bathroom refurbishments

From design to installation, with one tradesman to deal with

Based in Ayrshire, we specialise in bathroom design and fitting in the home, commercial and school environments. Most of the work is complete bathroom refurbishments, from design to installation. The benefit of this is you only have to liaise with one tradesman, so the work flows more smoothly and efficiently, with less worry and stress for you.

Besides full bathroom refurbishments we also carry out smaller plumbing jobs such as toilet exchanges, tap replacements, shower and shower cubicle replacements and leaking pipes. In fact, no job is too small.

  • Bathroom fitter (supply/fit or fit only)
  • Wet rooms and en-suite installation
  • All general plumbing work: towel warmers, sinks, basins, toilets repaired/fitted
  • Showers and shower cubicle fitting
  • Under floor heating
  • Tiling, wall and floor
  • Plastering
  • New ceilings, stud walls and new floors
  • Bathroom lighting

Never left without a toilet

All work is carried out to a high standard with minimum disruption to your home. There will never be a time when you are left without a working toilet in the house overnight.

Your choice of fittings

We offer free advice on equipment choice and layout. Buy your own equipment and fittings and have us fit them, or we can supply and fit everything, including radiators, floor coverings, wall tiles and lighting.

Tidy from start to finish

From the initial estimate through to cleaning up after the job, with a decorating service and fixing of bathroom accessories if required.

Boilers & central heating

Full heating installation services

We specialise in boiler and central heating repairs on many boilers and systems. We always try to complete a repair within the first hour, and this is normally achieved as we carry a good variety of the most common spare parts and have years of experience in all types of breakdowns.

We are experts at installing brand new boilers and heating systems in your home, and we can install energy efficient systems to save you money with our gas safe engineers. As well as fixing problems when they do arise, we can advise you on what you can do to improve the efficiency of your system, reduce your energy bill, and identify potential issues early on.

Boiler service

Most boilers require servicing once a year. We use the most up to date equipment: where necessary a flue gas analyser is inserted into the boiler to measure the products of combustion and the amount of carbon monoxide, to make sure it is operating correctly. At a service we carry out standard cleaning of the necessary components and these safety checks:

  1. 1Carrying out a test with Flue Gas Analyser
  2. 2Checking the safety devices within the boiler are working correctly
  3. 3Checking the gas rate of the boiler to ensure it is burning correctly
  4. 4Checking the flue is not blocked and is allowing products of combustion to disperse correctly
  5. 5Checking that the ventilation requirements of the boiler are being met
  6. 6Carrying out a gas tightness test to the full property to ensure you have no gas leaks

Most of our new customers come by word of mouth

We are based in Ayr and more than happy to cover the surrounding areas. We deal with both domestic and commercial clients and are fully insured for your peace of mind. We have an excellent reputation for the quality and standard of our work, which is why we get a large proportion of our new customers through word of mouth and recommendations, and why so many existing customers come back to us time and time again.

We have used John Clark Plumbing for over 12 years. He is always reliable, and keeps to schedule agreed. Always happy to answer questions or concerns. His work is of a high standard and you get the best service and that is why I am a repeat customer. He has plumbed in my new kitchen to a different room, fitted cast iron radiators, installed a new bathroom and recently fitted a new boiler. I would highly recommend John and Keiran, plus Josh Skilling for his joinery work.

John was recommended to me by a friend after we started looking for quotes for a bathroom refit. The job included moving a wall and changing the layout of plumbed appliances. John came and took the measurements and provided me with a competitive quote. He outlined the work to be done and explained the timescales. John's team were excellent. Kieran (Plumber), Josh (Joiner), Colin (Electrician), and Jim (Tiler) came when they were meant to and were extremely respectful of the house. They completed work to a really high standard and I couldn't believe how quickly it all came together. John kept in contact throughout the process and made sure I was kept up to date with any changes and was there to answer any questions. I'm now left with an amazing bathroom that exceeds my expectations. There's no doubt I will use John in the future and would have no worries recommending him to my family and friends.

Recently had a new bathroom fitted by John and his team keiran, & Josh. Craig Mcinally helped out with electrical work required , all were hard working, and kept me notified of what was happening and were happy to answer any questions I had. Very professional and tidy throughout. Great job done and I would highly recommend them. Tracy Barrett.

We had two taps (kitchen and shower) replaced two weeks ago. John was prompt and clear from the start, so we knew well when to expect the job to be done and how much it would cost etc. He has done an excellent job, everything in great order now, and he also works very clean and tidy. I wouldn't go anywhere else next time we have any plumbing problems.

After being let down by so many plumbers John came to the rescue and sorted our heating at Folia. Fast, efficient and very reasonable! Looking forward to using our rooms and offices that are now warm and cosy. We now know we have a reliable plumber to call 💚
