Working in Burnley

In Burnley we cover BB10 and BB11; we also cover Nelson, 2.7 miles away, and Colne.

Across a large town like Burnley, homes range from older terraces to newer estates; the survey tells us which pipework and floor we are dealing with. If you have young children at home in Burnley, we can talk through a bath that is easy to lean over, a slip-resistant floor and high-level storage. Whether your Burnley bathroom is a narrow galley or a square main room, we show you whether a separate shower would fit before you decide.

Most of Lancashire is supplied with soft water. 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

Strip-out of the old suite and tiles, with the waste taken away by a licensed waste carrier
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
A free home survey covering room sizes, the soil stack position, your boiler or cylinder type and water pressure

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.

Storage

A vanity under the basin, a tall unit or a mirror cabinet. High-level or lockable storage keeps medicines and cleaning products out of reach of small children.

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 Burnley: questions

How much does a family bathroom cost in Burnley?

A family bathroom in Burnley usually costs £5,600–£10,250 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.

How long does a family bathroom take?

Allow 6–10 working days on site for most jobs, plus the lead time for products after you approve the quote. We give you a day-by-day plan before work starts in Burnley.

Is the home survey in Burnley 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.

Do you cover BB10 and BB11 in Burnley?

Yes. We cover all of Burnley, including BB10 and BB11, and nearby Nelson, Colne and Accrington. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Can you fit a separate bath and shower in a family bathroom?

Usually only in a room of about 6 m² or more, which leaves space for a 1700 mm bath, a shower enclosure, a basin and a WC without the room feeling crowded. In a smaller room, a shower bath with a screen gives most of the benefit. We test both layouts against your measurements at the survey.
