Working in Selby

In Selby we cover YO8; we also cover Goole, 9.5 miles away, and Pontefract.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Selby: free survey, written quote, one team. Whether your Selby bathroom is a narrow galley or a square main room, we show you whether a separate shower would fit before you decide. For a busy Selby household sharing one main bathroom, a thermostatic shower over a full-size bath is usually the most practical layout.

Most of North Yorkshire 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
Strip-out of the old suite and tiles, with the waste taken away by a licensed waste carrier
Wall and floor tiling, with a floor finish chosen to grip under wet feet

Decisions to make first

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.

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 Selby: questions

What is the price of a family bathroom in Selby?

A family bathroom in Selby usually costs £5,600–£10,250 including VAT. Room size, layout changes and your choice of products move the figure within that range. The free survey gives you an itemised quote, fixed in writing once the details are agreed.

Do you cover YO8 in Selby?

Yes. We cover all of Selby, including YO8, and nearby Goole, Pontefract and York. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Selby?

Who handles building control for a family bathroom in Selby?

Building control for Selby 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.
