Working in Sutton

As well as Sutton itself (KT4, SM1, SM2 and 3 more postcode districts), we survey in Banstead, Ewell and Epsom.

In Sutton, many bathrooms are in flats or converted houses, so we check lease consents, access and the floor below before we price. If your Sutton 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. Whether your Sutton bathroom is a narrow galley or a square main room, we show you whether a separate shower would fit before you decide.

Water across much of Greater London is very 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 layout that keeps a full-size bath, with options for a shower over it or a separate enclosure if the room allows
Wall and floor tiling, with a floor finish chosen to grip under wet feet
Lights, extractor fan and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
Final silicone, a test of every tap and waste, and a clean handover

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.

Bath material

Reinforced acrylic is warm to the touch and light on the floor. Steel enamel is harder-wearing and feels more solid, but it draws heat from the water faster.

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 Sutton: questions

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

A family bathroom in Sutton usually costs £7,500–£13,750 including VAT. Where you land in that range depends on the size of the room, whether the layout changes and the products you choose. After the free survey you get an itemised written quote, and the price is fixed in writing once the layout and products are agreed.

Do you cover KT4 in Sutton?

Yes. We cover all of Sutton, including KT4, SM1, SM2, SM3 and 2 more postcode districts, and nearby Banstead, Ewell and Epsom. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Sutton?

Who handles building control for a family bathroom in Sutton?

Building control for Sutton 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.
