The difference
What each option actually means
Replacing visible fittings may be simpler than relocating fixtures and altering concealed plumbing.
The trade-offs
Once waterproofing or drainage set-outs change, several trades and compliance requirements may be involved.
How to decide
Clarify the exact scope and who is responsible for approvals, waterproofing and finishes.
Before choosing
A plumber should assess suitability, condition, access and applicable requirements. Product or repair recommendations made without seeing the property are preliminary. Ask for the proposed scope, exclusions and relevant warranty details before approving the work.
