Working in Melton Mowbray

As well as Melton Mowbray itself (LE13 and LE14), we survey in Oakham, Mountsorrel and Loughborough.

Homes in and around Melton Mowbray vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If you are in Melton Mowbray and weighing a bath against a walk-in shower, the layout options show both with their prices. If your Melton Mowbray bathroom has a soil stack in an awkward corner, the design starts there, because it is the one point that is costly to move.

Most of Leicestershire has hard water. We plan easy-clean glass, rimless toilets and finishes that do not show limescale. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

A measured survey of the room, including ceiling heights, slopes, window and door positions and any boxing
Elevations and tile layouts on a design, supply and fit project, so the setting-out is agreed before tiling starts
A product list covering the suite, brassware, furniture, tiles, lighting and ventilation
A written, itemised quote, with the price fixed in writing once the layout and products are agreed

Decisions to make first

The door

Re-hanging the door on the other side, fitting a sliding pocket door or moving the opening can free up a whole wall in a small room.

Keep or change the layout

Keeping the WC and shower where they are saves on plumbing. The WC is the costly one to move, because it is tied to the soil stack.

Rules that apply in England

In England, a new connection to the soil stack or new drainage can be building regulations work under Part H, and new circuits or alterations to circuits in the bathroom are notifiable under Part P. Where a new bathroom is formed, Approved Document F asks for extract at 15 l/s intermittent or 8 l/s continuous.

Bathroom design in Melton Mowbray: questions

Do you charge for bathroom design in Melton Mowbray?

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 Melton Mowbray typically costs £6,200–£11,500 including VAT.

Do you cover LE13 and LE14 in Melton Mowbray?

Is the water hard in Melton Mowbray?

Who handles building control for a new bathroom design in Melton Mowbray?

Building control for Melton Mowbray is handled by the local council or an approved inspector. If your job needs sign-off — for example a new circuit, new drainage or a new extractor where there was none — we tell you at the survey and handle the notification as part of the work.

Can you design a bathroom around products I have already chosen?

Yes. Tell us the products at the survey and we will check they fit the room, the water pressure and the drainage before drawing the layout around them. If something will not work, such as a shower valve that needs more pressure than your system gives, we say so before you buy anything else.
