Working in Fraserburgh

We work right across Fraserburgh — AB43 — and in neighbouring Peterhead and Inverurie.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Fraserburgh: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Fraserburgh loft shower is weak or the waste drains slowly, the fix is often in the pump or the pipe fall rather than the shower itself. For a loft bathroom in a tank-fed Fraserburgh home, we work out how the shower will get its pressure before choosing a single fitting.

Supplies across most of Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire are soft. If that holds for your street in Fraserburgh, limescale on shower glass and heads builds up slowly and a squeegee after use is usually enough. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Electrics by a qualified electrician, tested and certified, then tiling, testing and handover
A shower pump on a gravity system, an electric shower, or advice on moving to mains pressure, depending on your system
A check of the floor joists where a bath or large shower tray will sit
An extractor fan ducted through the roof or a gable wall, with the duct insulated through cold spaces

Decisions to make first

Eaves storage

Low cupboards built into the slope behind the WC or basin take clutter out of the room and hide the pipework.

Getting the water pressure

A pumped shower suits a gravity system with a cold tank; an electric shower heats cold mains water at the point of use; a combi or unvented cylinder gives mains pressure throughout.

Rules that apply in Scotland

In Scotland, forming a new bathroom in the loft or altering the drainage may need a building warrant. The Technical Handbook uses 15 litres per second extract for a bathroom, and water fittings are covered by the Scottish Water Byelaws 2014.

Loft bathrooms in Fraserburgh: questions

How much should I budget for a loft bathroom in Fraserburgh?

A loft bathroom in Fraserburgh usually costs £6,200–£12,500 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 AB43 in Fraserburgh?

Yes. We cover all of Fraserburgh, including AB43, and nearby Peterhead, Inverurie and Aberdeen. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Fraserburgh?

Is a bath too heavy for a loft floor?

A standard acrylic bath is usually fine on a loft floor built for a conversion, but a filled bath with someone in it is heavy, and stone-resin or cast-iron baths are much heavier still. We check the joist size, span and direction at the survey, and a heavy bath may need a structural check and strengthening first.
