Over a quarter of consumers planning bathroom refit

More than a quarter of UK consumers plan to complete a bathroom refurbishment in the next two years, according to a recent poll.

The Bathroom Manufacturers Association (BMA), in partnership with Opinium Research, conducted a biannual poll of 2,000 UK adults.

It found more than a quarter of the respondents (26%) wanted to complete a full bathroom refurbishment, with partial makeovers and replacing taps slightly up over the same period.

Representing an uptick in the percentage of consumers, the BMA reported bathroom refurbishments were back to the same level as

June 2021. However the poll found general repair intention dipped to 27% from 29% in July 2022.

The BMA reports its poll is encouraging, with consumers still wanting to improve their homes and having the available funds, despite inflation.
