RAMS, CPP & Site Documents for Bathroom Fitters
Bathrooms combine water, electricity, heavy sanitaryware, and confined spaces. Your RAMS need to cover the actual hazards — not a generic 'wet room' template.
No card needed · Used by UK bathroom fitters · CDM 2015 compliant
Built for Bathroom Fitters
Real work, real hazards. Here are examples of what The Site Book creates RAMS for:
Full bathroom installations
Strip-out, plumbing, electrics, tiling, sanitaryware — covers manual handling of baths, electrical work in wet zones, and working in confined spaces.
Wet room construction
Tanking, drainage installation, non-slip tiling — covers waterproofing chemical exposure, working at floor level for extended periods, and drainage connections.
Shower room conversions
Converting existing rooms — covers structural assessment for shower tray loads, plumbing rerouting, and electrical zone compliance.
Commercial washroom refurbishment
Multi-cubicle washrooms in schools, offices, and healthcare — covers working in occupied buildings, asbestos in older buildings, and phased working.

Common Hazards We Cover
These are the real risks bathroom fitters face on site every day. Your RAMS will address each one with specific control measures.
- Manual handling of heavy sanitaryware — cast iron and steel baths, shower trays, and large format tiles
- Electrical work in wet zones — Part P compliance for circuits in bathrooms, IP rating requirements, and isolation procedures
- Slips and falls on wet surfaces — working in a space that is regularly wet during and after installation
- Dust from cutting tiles, chasing walls, and removing old plaster — silica dust risk from ceramic and porcelain tiles
- Working in confined spaces — bathrooms are typically small rooms with limited ventilation and restricted movement
- Adhesive and sealant fume exposure — waterproofing compounds, silicone sealants, and tile adhesives in poorly ventilated spaces
Frequently Asked Questions
- Do I need RAMS as a bathroom fitter?
- Yes. Bathroom fitting involves manual handling of heavy sanitaryware, electrical work in wet zones (which is notifiable under Part P), and exposure to adhesive fumes in small, poorly ventilated spaces. RAMS are required under CDM 2015 for all construction work, and principal contractors and commercial clients will expect them before you start.
- How long does it take to create RAMS for bathroom fitting?
- Under 5 minutes with The Site Book. Describe the job — for example, 'en-suite shower room installation in a 2000s detached house' — and the AI generates RAMS covering manual handling of sanitaryware, electrical safety in wet zones, dust from tiling, and fume exposure from adhesives and sealants.
- Does The Site Book cover Part P and bathroom electrical zones?
- The Site Book covers the health and safety aspects of electrical work in bathrooms under CDM 2015, including references to Part P of the Building Regulations and the IET Wiring Regulations for bathroom electrical zones (0, 1, and 2). It covers isolation procedures and competent person requirements. It does not replace your electrical certification.
