Working in Portsmouth

We cover every part of Portsmouth, including PO1, PO2, PO3 and 3 more postcode districts, and nearby Gosport (1.7 miles) and South Hayling (5.1 miles).

In a city the size of Portsmouth, parking and access for a skip are worth sorting before the start date — we will ask at the survey. If your Portsmouth bathroom is a box room over the stairs, the first job is finding out where the soil stack lets the WC sit. If nobody in your Portsmouth home has used the bath in years, we can price a walk-in shower layout next to a shorter bath so you can compare.

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

Strip-out, waste removal, testing and a clean handover
Space-saving sanitaryware: a short-projection or wall-hung WC and a compact or semi-recessed basin
Lighting, extractor fan and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
Recessed niches, mirror cabinets and wall-hung vanity units to get storage off the floor

Decisions to make first

Glass

Clear glass with a slim profile or none lets the eye travel through the room. A fixed panel needs no clearance for a door to swing.

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.

What makes a small bathroom look bigger?

Showing more floor and fewer edges makes a small bathroom look bigger. Wall-hung WCs and vanities, a single clear glass panel instead of a framed enclosure, larger tiles with matching grout, and the same floor tile running into the shower all help. A wide mirror on the basin wall bounces light around the room.
