Working in Banbury
As well as Banbury itself (OX16), we survey in Bicester, Daventry and Royal Leamington Spa.
In Banbury, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. Whether your Banbury bathroom is a narrow galley or a square main room, we show you whether a separate shower would fit before you decide. If your Banbury 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.
Supplies across most of Oxfordshire 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
- Strip-out of the old suite and tiles, with the waste taken away by a licensed waste carrier
- Moisture-resistant boarding and tanking around the bath and shower before any tiling
- 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
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.
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.
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.
