Working in Deal

As well as Deal itself (CT14), we survey in Dover, Ramsgate and Broadstairs.

Homes in and around Deal vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If you live in a terrace or semi in Deal with a compact bathroom, swapping a pedestal basin and close-coupled WC for wall-hung pieces is often the biggest single gain. If the door of your Deal bathroom opens inwards and catches the basin, re-hanging it or fitting a sliding door is often part of the plan.

Supplies across most of Kent are 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

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
Space-saving sanitaryware: a short-projection or wall-hung WC and a compact or semi-recessed basin
Two or three layout options, each priced, so you can compare keeping the bath with a walk-in shower

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.

Small bathrooms in Deal: questions

Is the home survey in Deal 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 CT14 in Deal?

Yes. We cover all of Deal, including CT14, and nearby Dover, Ramsgate and Broadstairs. 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.
