Why Fitters Packs Matter
They say first impressions count, but when it comes to kitchens, the final impression you leave with customers can matter just as much. Independent retailers, in particular, thrive or falter based on the excellence of their finished products, making the role of fitters crucial. The professionalism and precision of a fitter can be the difference between earning that all-important recommendation or not. One powerful way to enhance the customer experience and ensure consistent, high-quality installations is through the provision of a comprehensive fitter’s pack. Whether you employ your own team of fitters or rely on subcontractors, a well-prepared fitters pack can streamline the installation process and upgrade overall project satisfaction from good to great.
Using the correct software can simplify this process immensely.

Shower enclosures should be quick, easy and safe to install
Bathroom installers have a significant impact on the products consumers ultimately choose for their bathroom renovations. According to a Bathroom Manufacturers Association (BMA) study, 95 per cent of bathroom installers questioned advised that their customers are ‘very likely’ or ‘quite likely’ to ask for their advice specifically for shower screens and trays1. Therefore, to meet the demands of the consumer, and improve efficiency for the installer, products not only have to be high-quality and stylish, but they also need to be simple and safe to install, in a short amount of time.

Based upon its understanding of the needs of trade professionals, Flair Showers designed an innovative screw-free assembly system to meet installers’ needs. Flair’s patented Click Fit system eliminates the need for trade professionals to fasten screws into the shower frame, saving time, energy and space.
Protecting your bathroom
investment with effective ventilation A new bathroom is a significant investment, often costing thousands, which is worth protecting. As an award-winning ventilation specialist, we understand the importance of proper ventilation for preserving the longevity of your bathroom. We’ve also seen manufacturers increasingly requiring proof of sufficient ventilation for warranty claims.
Effective ventilation prevents condensation, which can lead to the growth of mould. This type of moisture buildup not only damages fixtures but also poses health risks, including respiratory issues, eye irritation, and skin problems. A reliable ventilation system protects both your bathroom and your well-being.
Beyond health benefits, proper ventilation safeguards your bathroom investment. Without effective control of moisture levels, fixtures deteriorate prematurely, compromising design and function. Professional ventilation solutions serve as insurance for your bathroom investment by helping maintain its condition and preserving manufacturer warranties. Investing in quality ventilation ensures longevity.
