Working in Hyde

As well as Hyde itself (M34, SK14 and SK16), we survey in Denton, Dukinfield and Stalybridge.

In Hyde, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If your Hyde bathroom is a box room over the stairs, the first job is finding out where the soil stack lets the WC sit. If the door of your Hyde bathroom opens inwards and catches the basin, re-hanging it or fitting a sliding door is often part of the plan.

Most of Greater Manchester is supplied with soft water. That leaves you free to choose matt black, brushed brass or clear glass without worrying much about limescale. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Strip-out, waste removal, testing and a clean handover
Recessed niches, mirror cabinets and wall-hung vanity units to get storage off the floor
Two or three layout options, each priced, so you can compare keeping the bath with a walk-in shower
Boarding, tanking and tiling, with larger tiles where they suit the walls to cut down grout lines

Decisions to make first

Door

Re-hanging the door to open outwards, or fitting a sliding door, frees the space behind it. In a very small room this alone can make space for a bigger shower.

Tiles and grout

Larger tiles with a grout close to the tile colour make walls look calmer. Running the same floor tile into the shower makes the floor look continuous.

Rules that apply in England

In England, changes to the wiring in a room with a bath or shower are notifiable under Part P, so use an electrician registered with a competent person scheme. If you replace the extractor fan, do not fit one that extracts less than the old one; Approved Document F gives 15 litres per second for an intermittent bathroom fan.

More about small bathrooms

Small bathrooms in Hyde: questions

How much does a small bathroom cost in Hyde?

A small bathroom in Hyde usually costs £4,200–£8,000 including VAT. Expect the lower end for a like-for-like job with standard products, and the upper end if things move or you choose premium finishes. Your quote is itemised and fixed in writing once agreed.

Is the home survey in Hyde really free?

Do you cover M34 in Hyde?

Yes. We cover all of Hyde, including M34, SK14 and SK16, and nearby Denton, Dukinfield and Stalybridge. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Hyde?

Is it worth taking the bath out of a small bathroom?

It is worth it if nobody in the house uses the bath. A walk-in shower in the same space gives more standing room, a lower step and a more open floor. If it is the only bath in a family home, consider keeping one, perhaps a 1500 or 1600 mm bath with a shower over it. Our small bathroom ideas guide covers more options.
