Working in Frome

We work right across Frome — BA11 — and in neighbouring Westbury and Warminster.

In Frome, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If you have young children at home in Frome, we can talk through a bath that is easy to lean over, a slip-resistant floor and high-level storage. We survey in Frome before quoting, so the bath, shower and storage are planned around your actual walls, window and soil stack.

Supplies across most of Somerset 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

A layout that keeps a full-size bath, with options for a shower over it or a separate enclosure if the room allows
Moisture-resistant boarding and tanking around the bath and shower before any tiling
Final silicone, a test of every tap and waste, and a clean handover
Wall and floor tiling, with a floor finish chosen to grip under wet feet

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.

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.

Is the home survey in Frome 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 BA11 in Frome?

Yes. We cover all of Frome, including BA11, and nearby Westbury, Warminster and Trowbridge. 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.
