What does a replacement bath cost in Aylesbury?

Working in Aylesbury
We cover every part of Aylesbury, including HP19, HP20 and HP21, and nearby Leighton Buzzard (9.6 miles) and Berkhamsted (11.3 miles).
Homes in and around Aylesbury vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. Survey visits in Aylesbury cover the bath, the tiles around it and the waste route, so the quote reflects your bathroom rather than a standard job. If you are in Aylesbury and considering a freestanding bath, the survey includes a check of the floor and joists before you choose.
Most of Buckinghamshire has hard water. Taps, plug wastes and toilet pans scale up quickly, so chrome copes better than matt black, and a removable aerator is worth having. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Tile repairs or re-tiling around the bath, and a fixed screen where there is a shower over it
- Filling the bath before sealing, so the silicone cures with the bath at its heaviest
- Supply of the new bath, taps or filler, waste and overflow, and bath panel
- New flexible connectors or pipework, with isolation valves on the hot and cold supplies
Decisions to make first
Shower bath
A P-shaped or L-shaped bath is wider at the shower end, giving room to stand and space for a fixed screen instead of a curtain.
Bath panel
Acrylic panels are cheap and easy to clean; wood-effect panels match fitted furniture; a tiled panel on a frame looks built-in but needs an access hatch for the waste.
Rules that apply in England
In England, Part G limits the hot water to a new bath to 48 °C at the outlet, usually with a thermostatic mixing valve, but only in a new dwelling or one created by a change of use. It does not apply to a replacement bath in an existing home, though a thermostatic valve is still sensible where children or older people bathe. New wiring for a shower over the bath or new lights is notifiable under Part P.
