Working in Yate

In Yate we cover BS37; we also cover Mangotsfield, 5.2 miles away, and Kingswood.

Yate gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. We survey in Yate before quoting, so the bath, shower and storage are planned around your actual walls, window and soil stack. If your Yate home has just one bathroom, we plan the fit so the toilet is working again at the end of each day wherever the job allows.

Supplies across most of Gloucestershire are hard. 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 free home survey covering room sizes, the soil stack position, your boiler or cylinder type and water pressure
A layout that keeps a full-size bath, with options for a shower over it or a separate enclosure if the room allows
Final silicone, a test of every tap and waste, and a clean handover
Supply of the bath, basin, WC, brassware, shower, screen, tiles and heated towel rail

Decisions to make first

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.

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.

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 Yate: questions

How much should I budget for a family bathroom in Yate?

A family bathroom in Yate usually costs £6,100–£11,250 including VAT. Expect the lower end for a like-for-like job with standard products, and the upper end if things move or you choose premium finishes. Your quote is itemised and fixed in writing once agreed.

Is the water hard in Yate?

Who handles building control for a family bathroom in Yate?

Building control for Yate 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.
