Sanitary installer in French-speaking Switzerland
A sanitary installer handles toilets, showers, baths, basins, taps and their connections. For a replacement, describe the fixture, visible connections and access; for a conversion, also provide plans, dimensions and related work.
Key points
Separate a sanitary fixture from a plumbing issue
A sanitary installer handles fixtures and connections; leaks, drainage and hot water first belong to plumbing. Describe the existing fixture, dimensions, visible connections and conversion goal.
- Toilet, shower, bath, basin and taps: sanitary fixtures.
- Leak, drainage or hot water: plumbing.
- Full-room conversion: bathroom renovation.
Prepare an installation or replacement
Prepare photos of the fixture and surroundings, visible connections, dimensions, access and items to retain. For relocation, also mention services, substrate and adjacent work.
- Add wide and detail photos without dismantling.
- State access and occupancy constraints.
- Describe adjacent elements that may affect the work.
Coordinate fixtures with the room
A single replacement can be isolated; a bathroom conversion often needs several trades. Describe the main work, interfaces and items that must be checked.
- One fixture: targeted sanitary request.
- Several work items: coordinated bathroom project.
- Before acceptance: flag items to check.
