Working in Blackpool

As well as Blackpool itself (FY1, FY2, FY3 and 1 more postcode districts), we survey in Poulton-le-Fylde, Thornton-Cleveleys and Lytham St Annes.

Across a large town like Blackpool, homes range from older terraces to newer estates; the survey tells us which pipework and floor we are dealing with. We measure small bathrooms in Blackpool to the centimetre before quoting, because 50 mm can decide whether a larger tray fits. For a small Blackpool 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 Lancashire is soft. That leaves you free to choose matt black, brushed brass or clear glass without worrying much about limescale. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Shorter, narrower or shower baths where a full 1700 mm bath does not sit well
Lighting, extractor fan and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
Strip-out, waste removal, testing and a clean handover
Two or three layout options, each priced, so you can compare keeping the bath with a walk-in shower

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.

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.

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.

Is the water hard in Blackpool?

Wall-hung or floor-standing toilet in a small bathroom?

A wall-hung toilet makes a small bathroom look larger and is easier to clean around, because the floor runs underneath it. It needs a concealed frame inside a false wall or boxing roughly 150 to 200 mm deep, which can often go where pipe boxing already sits. A back-to-wall pan in a slim furniture unit is a good middle option.
