Working in Rickmansworth

As well as Rickmansworth itself (HA6, WD3 and WD18), we survey in Watford, Chalfont St Peter and North Watford.

In Rickmansworth, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If nobody in your Rickmansworth home has used the bath in years, we can price a walk-in shower layout next to a shorter bath so you can compare. For a small Rickmansworth bathroom with no window, a quiet extractor fan on an overrun timer does more for the room than any tile choice.

Water across much of Hertfordshire is very 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

Boarding, tanking and tiling, with larger tiles where they suit the walls to cut down grout lines
Lighting, extractor fan and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
Two or three layout options, each priced, so you can compare keeping the bath with a walk-in shower
A measured survey including the door swing, window position, soil stack and any boxing that could be slimmed down

Decisions to make first

WC type

A short-projection close-coupled WC sits closer to the wall than a standard pan. A wall-hung WC on a concealed frame shows the floor beneath it and is easier to clean around.

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.

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.

Small bathrooms in Rickmansworth: questions

How much does a small bathroom cost in Rickmansworth?

A small bathroom in Rickmansworth usually costs £4,800–£9,000 including VAT. The final figure comes down to what you choose and what we find at the survey; your written quote lists every item so you can see where the money goes.

Is the home survey in Rickmansworth really free?

Do you cover HA6 in Rickmansworth?

Yes. We cover all of Rickmansworth, including HA6, WD3 and WD18, and nearby Watford, Chalfont St Peter and North Watford. 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.
