Working in St Andrews

As well as St Andrews itself (KY16), we survey in Dundee, Carnoustie and Glenrothes.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in St Andrews: free survey, written quote, one team. For loft rooms and sloping ceilings in St Andrews homes, the design checks head height where you stand, not just the floor area. We measure St Andrews bathrooms on site before drawing anything, so layouts are based on your walls rather than a standard plan.

Water across much of Fife is soft. That leaves you free to choose matt black, brushed brass or clear glass without worrying much about limescale. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

A product list covering the suite, brassware, furniture, tiles, lighting and ventilation
A clear view of which changes are cheap and which mean moving drainage or opening floors
A lighting and electrical plan showing switches, fittings, shaver socket and extractor fan
A measured survey of the room, including ceiling heights, slopes, window and door positions and any boxing

Decisions to make first

Storage

Fitted furniture, a vanity with a tall cupboard, or recessed niches and a mirror cabinet. Recessed storage costs no floor space but needs a stud wall or deep boxing to sit in.

Where the shower goes

A shower on an outside wall is easier to ventilate; one under a sloping ceiling needs full head height where you stand, not just at the high side.

Rules that apply in Scotland

In Scotland, a straight refit rarely needs a building warrant, but forming a new bathroom, altering drainage or structural work may. The Technical Handbook uses 15 l/s extract for a bathroom, and the Scottish Water Byelaws 2014 cover new water fittings.

Bathroom design in St Andrews: questions

Do you charge for bathroom design in St Andrews?

Not separately. The home survey, layout options and itemised written quote are free, and the detailed design is part of a supply-and-fit job. A complete designed, supplied and fitted bathroom in St Andrews typically costs £6,200–£11,500 including VAT.

Is the home survey in St Andrews really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Yes. We cover all of St Andrews, including KY16, and nearby Dundee, Carnoustie and Glenrothes. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in St Andrews?

What happens at a bathroom design survey?

At the survey we measure and photograph the room and check the soil stack, waste routes, joists, water pressure, hot water system, electrics and ventilation. We also ask how the room is used and what you want to change. Everything that limits the layout is found at this stage, so the options we draw can actually be built.
