What does a replacement bath cost in Goole?

Working in Goole
We work right across Goole — DN14 — and in neighbouring Thorne and Selby.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Goole: free survey, written quote, one team. Landlords with properties in Goole can usually have a bath replaced between tenancies in one to two working days. Before a new bath is ordered for a Goole home, we measure the stairs and landing as well as the opening.
Water across much of the East Riding of Yorkshire is hard. 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
- Removal of the old bath, including breaking up a cast-iron bath in place where it will not come out whole
- Filling the bath before sealing, so the silicone cures with the bath at its heaviest
- Levelling the bath on adjustable feet or a cradle, with timber battens fixed to the walls under the rim
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.
Acrylic or steel
Acrylic is warm to the touch, light and the usual choice; thicker, reinforced acrylic flexes less. Enamelled steel is rigid and hard-wearing but feels colder, and needs sound-deadening pads to stop it drumming.
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.
