Working in Hythe

As well as Hythe itself (SO45), we survey in Southampton, Totton and Hedge End.

Hythe gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. For a small Hythe bathroom with no window, a quiet extractor fan on an overrun timer does more for the room than any tile choice. If your Hythe bathroom is a box room over the stairs, the first job is finding out where the soil stack lets the WC sit.

Supplies across most of Hampshire 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

Lighting, extractor fan and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
Strip-out, waste removal, testing and a clean handover
A measured survey including the door swing, window position, soil stack and any boxing that could be slimmed down
Space-saving sanitaryware: a short-projection or wall-hung WC and a compact or semi-recessed basin

Decisions to make first

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.

Keep the bath or go walk-in

A 1500 or 1600 mm bath keeps a bath in a short room. A walk-in shower with a single glass panel opens up the floor and makes the room read as larger.

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 Hythe: questions

How much should I budget for a small bathroom in Hythe?

A small bathroom in Hythe usually costs £5,000–£9,500 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.

How long does a small bathroom take?

Allow 5–8 working days on site for most jobs, plus the lead time for products after you approve the quote. We give you a day-by-day plan before work starts in Hythe.

Is the home survey in Hythe 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 SO45 in Hythe?

Yes. We cover all of Hythe, including SO45, and nearby Southampton, Totton and Hedge End. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Can you fit a shower bath in a small bathroom?

Yes, a shower bath is one of the most useful fittings in a small bathroom. The wider end under the shower gives you more room to stand, and a curved or angled screen keeps the water in. Shower baths come in shorter lengths, so one can often replace a standard bath in the same position.
