Working in Staveley

We cover every part of Staveley, including S43, and nearby Chesterfield (3 miles) and Dronfield (5.7 miles).

Homes in and around Staveley vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. Whether your Staveley bathroom is a narrow galley or a square main room, we show you whether a separate shower would fit before you decide. If you are refreshing a family bathroom in Staveley before selling, keeping the layout lets the budget go on the suite, tiles and shower.

Most of Derbyshire has moderately hard water. Easy-clean glass and good-quality brassware are money well spent. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Lights, extractor fan and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
Supply of the bath, basin, WC, brassware, shower, screen, tiles and heated towel rail
Moisture-resistant boarding and tanking around the bath and shower before any tiling
Strip-out of the old suite and tiles, with the waste taken away by a licensed waste carrier

Decisions to make first

Shower over the bath or separate

A shower over the bath with a fixed or hinged screen is the most space-efficient. A separate enclosure needs roughly another square metre of floor but means the bath queue no longer holds up the shower queue.

Screen or curtain

Glass keeps water in better than a curtain and does not go mouldy at the hem. A folding or hinged screen swings out of the way when you are kneeling to bath a child.

Rules that apply in England

In England, any new circuit, or any change to the wiring in a room with a bath or shower, is notifiable under Part P. Part G limits the hot water at a new bath to 48 °C only in a new dwelling or one created by change of use; it does not apply to a replacement bath in an existing house, but a thermostatic valve is a sensible choice where children bathe.

More about family bathrooms

Family bathrooms in Staveley: questions

What is the price of a family bathroom in Staveley?

A family bathroom in Staveley usually costs £5,800–£10,500 including VAT. The final figure comes down to what you choose and what we find at the survey; your written quote lists every item so you can see where the money goes.

Do you cover S43 in Staveley?

Yes. We cover all of Staveley, including S43, and nearby Chesterfield, Dronfield and Dinnington. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Staveley?

Who handles building control for a family bathroom in Staveley?

Building control for Staveley 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.

Should a family bathroom have a bath?

If you have young children, yes: bathing a toddler in a shower tray is hard work. In a single-bathroom house, a bath with a good thermostatic shower over it gives you both in one footprint. If the children are older and nobody baths, a walk-in shower may suit you better; our bath or shower guide sets out the trade-offs.
