Working in Norwich

In Norwich we cover NR1, NR2, NR3 and 4 more postcode districts; we also cover East Dereham, 15.8 miles away, and Great Yarmouth.

Norwich is a big place with every kind of home, from terraces to flats to new builds, so we never price from a photo alone. If your Norwich 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. For a busy Norwich household sharing one main bathroom, a thermostatic shower over a full-size bath is usually the most practical layout.

Supplies across most of Norfolk are 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

Supply of the bath, basin, WC, brassware, shower, screen, tiles and heated towel rail
Final silicone, a test of every tap and waste, and a clean handover
New pipework, wastes and isolation valves, plus a thermostatic shower valve so the temperature holds when someone runs a tap
Lights, extractor fan and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified

Decisions to make first

Floor

Matt or textured porcelain is the hardest-wearing option. Luxury vinyl tile (LVT) is warmer, quieter and cheaper to lay. Avoid polished tiles where children climb out of the bath.

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 Norwich: questions

How much does a family bathroom cost in Norwich?

A family bathroom in Norwich usually costs £6,400–£11,750 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 NR1 in Norwich?

Yes. We cover all of Norwich, including NR1, NR2, NR3, NR4 and 3 more postcode districts, and nearby East Dereham, Great Yarmouth and Lowestoft. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Norwich?

Who handles building control for a family bathroom in Norwich?

Building control for Norwich 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.
