Working in Broadstairs

As well as Broadstairs itself (CT10), we survey in Ramsgate, Margate and Deal.

Broadstairs gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If your Broadstairs bathroom is a box room over the stairs, the first job is finding out where the soil stack lets the WC sit. We measure small bathrooms in Broadstairs to the centimetre before quoting, because 50 mm can decide whether a larger tray fits.

Water across much of Kent 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

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

Decisions to make first

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.

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.

More about small bathrooms

Small bathrooms in Broadstairs: questions

How much does a small bathroom cost in Broadstairs?

A small bathroom in Broadstairs usually costs £5,000–£9,500 including VAT. Where you land in that range depends on the size of the room, whether the layout changes and the products you choose.

Is the water hard in Broadstairs?

Who handles building control for a small bathroom in Broadstairs?

Building control for Broadstairs is handled by the local council or an approved inspector. If your job needs sign-off — for example a new circuit, new drainage or a new extractor where there was none — we tell you at the survey and handle the notification as part of the work.

How small can a bathroom be?

There is no legal minimum size for a bathroom in an existing home; the limit is what you can use comfortably. A shower room with an 800 mm tray, a compact basin and a WC can work in about 2 m². A room with a bath needs at least one wall as long as the bath, usually 1500 to 1700 mm, plus space in front of the WC and basin.
