Dismantling of sanitary facilities

Dismantling of sanitary ware - a professional service for your home and business

Dismantling of sanitary ware is the first and mandatory step in repairing a bathroom, toilet, laundry room or completely renovating a home or business. When old toilets, sinks, shower cabins, bathtubs, bidets, faucets or accessories need to be removed, it is important that this is done professionally, without damaging tiles, pipes and plumbing. I offer a full service for dismantling, moving and preparing the premises for new installation.

What does the dismantling of sanitary ware service include

The service is suitable for both partial repairs and complete renovations, replacement of installations or change of purpose of the premises. The work is done carefully, cleanly and according to established professional standards.

Types of sanitary ware that I dismantle

• Toilet bowls - monobloc, console, standing, with built-in or external cistern
• Sinks - wall-mounted, standing, countertop, sinks in the bathroom and kitchen
• Bidets and urinals - standard and console models
• Bathrooms and shower areas - bathtubs, shower cabins, shower trays, glass partitions
• Faucets and taps - for washbasin, kitchen, shower and bathtub
• Accessories - siphons, shower channel type siphons, consoles, holders, cabinets with built-in sink

Stages of dismantling

1. Inspection and planning - inspection of the existing plumbing and connections to the water supply and sewage system, selection of the safest method of dismantling
2. Stopping the water - locally or from the main tap to avoid leaks and flooding
3. Dismantling of fittings - removal of mixers, flexible connections, soft connections, siphons and additional elements
4. Mechanical separation - careful release of the plumbing from the floor, wall and screed to protect the cladding
5. Removal and disposal - removal of old appliances, preparation for disposal as construction waste
6. Preparation for new installation - cleaning the base, inspection of pipes, possible temporary blockage or securing open connections

Why professional plumbing removal is important

Improper removal can lead to serious and costly damage. Professional work saves time, nerves and money, especially with older installations and fragile cladding.

Common problems with improper dismantling

• Cracking of tiles and cracking of joints, which requires additional construction work
• Breaking of cast iron or PVC pipes, which leads to leaks and the need for urgent plumbing repairs
• Damage to siphons and transitional connections to the sewer
• Hidden leaks behind walls and suspended ceilings, which require detection of hidden leaks with a thermal imaging camera

When dismantling is combined with replacing risers, replacing pipes or building new plumbing installations, it is important that all activities are coordinated. If necessary, the dismantling of sanitary ware can be combined with additional plumbing services for the home to solve long-standing problems with leaks, low pressure or old pipes.

Advantages of professional service

• Maximum protection of tiles, flooring, paint and plaster
• Accurate assessment of whether a given appliance can be removed without destruction
• Possibility of reusing part of the sanitary ware in good condition
• Preparation of all connections for future Plumbing installation and repair
• Possibility of combining with the installation of new sanitary ware, replacement of a pipeline or sewer repair

Dismantling of sanitary ware during repairs, replacements and accidents

Not every dismantling is planned a long time in advance. Sometimes, rapid intervention is required due to a leak or damage to the sanitary ware or connecting elements. In such cases, quick reaction and safe removal of the problematic appliance are important.

Planned repair and replacement of equipment

When completely renovating a bathroom, replacing tiles or renewing the design, old appliances must be removed carefully so as not to compromise the foundations and pipes. In this case, dismantling can be combined with:

• Full or partial replacement of water and sewage pipes
• Reorganization of the location of sinks, shower area and toilet
• Preparation for installation of built-in mixers and built-in structures
• Prevention of sewage and removal of old accumulations

Dismantling in emergency situations

In case of serious leaks, blockages or breakage of sanitary equipment, urgent removal of the device is often necessary. In these cases, action is taken in strict compliance with safety, with a quick shutdown of the water and protection of the room from additional damage. After dismantling, the following can be done:

• Fixing a leak in a pipe, a leak in the bathroom or a leak in the siphon
• Unblocking a clogged drain, a clogged sink or a toilet
• Temporary or permanent solution with replacement of parts of the installation

Whether you are planning a major renovation or need emergency help, professional dismantling of sanitary facilities ensures the safe removal of old equipment and reliable preparation for the next steps. This way, your new bathroom, toilet or wet room will be built on a stable and proven foundation.
