Working in Westbury
We cover every part of Westbury, including BA13, and nearby Warminster (3.9 miles) and Trowbridge (4.2 miles).
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Westbury: free survey, written quote, one team. Landlords with properties in Westbury can usually have a bath replaced between tenancies in one to two working days. If the bath in your Westbury home is the only thing letting the bathroom down, a swap in one or two days avoids a full refit.
Water across much of Wiltshire 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
- Leak testing at the waste, overflow and taps, taking the old bath away and a final clean
- A survey of the bath opening, the floor, the waste route, the supplies and the tiles around the bath
- New flexible connectors or pipework, with isolation valves on the hot and cold supplies
- Tile repairs or re-tiling around the bath, and a fixed screen where there is a shower over it
Decisions to make first
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.
Freestanding bath
Acrylic freestanding baths are manageable on most floors; stone resin and cast iron are much heavier when full. You need room to clean round the bath and a plan for where the waste and filler come up.
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.
