Mike continued: '˜We have some amazing on-trend displays '“ customers can expect products which are band on trend, in a store that also gives you an idea of how to style the fittings.' 

Clients will also be able to work with Easy Bathrooms staff to design their own bathroom, for free, using the firm's award-winning ArtiCAD 3D system.

Mike said: '˜Our bathroom planners are very knowledgeable about our products and the latest trends.

'˜So, when a customer walks into one of our stores, they get their own personal designer and can leave with a better understanding of what can be achieved with their bathroom refit.'
