Working in Daventry

We work right across Daventry — NN11 — and in neighbouring Rugby and Northampton.

In Daventry, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If your Daventry 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 Daventry bathroom is a narrow galley or a square main room, we show you whether a separate shower would fit before you decide.

Supplies across most of Northamptonshire 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

New pipework, wastes and isolation valves, plus a thermostatic shower valve so the temperature holds when someone runs a tap
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
Final silicone, a test of every tap and waste, and a clean handover

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.

Bath shape

A standard 1700 mm bath fits most rooms. A shower bath widens at one end to give more standing room under the shower; a double-ended bath puts the waste in the middle so two children can share without one sitting on the plug.

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 Daventry: questions

How much does a family bathroom cost in Daventry?

A family bathroom in Daventry usually costs £5,800–£10,500 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 NN11 in Daventry?

Is the water hard in Daventry?

Who handles building control for a family bathroom in Daventry?

Building control for Daventry 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.
