Working in Nottingham

We work right across Nottingham — NG1, NG3, NG5 and 3 more postcode districts — and in neighbouring West Bridgford and Hucknall.

Nottingham is a big place with every kind of home, from terraces to flats to new builds, so we never price from a photo alone. If nobody in your Nottingham home has used the bath in years, we can price a walk-in shower layout next to a shorter bath so you can compare. If you live in a terrace or semi in Nottingham with a compact bathroom, swapping a pedestal basin and close-coupled WC for wall-hung pieces is often the biggest single gain.

Water across much of Nottinghamshire is 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
Recessed niches, mirror cabinets and wall-hung vanity units to get storage off the floor
Two or three layout options, each priced, so you can compare keeping the bath with a walk-in shower
Space-saving sanitaryware: a short-projection or wall-hung WC and a compact or semi-recessed basin

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 Nottingham: questions

How much should I budget for a small bathroom in Nottingham?

A small bathroom in Nottingham usually costs £4,300–£8,200 including VAT. Where you land in that range depends on the size of the room, whether the layout changes and the products you choose. After the free survey you get an itemised written quote, and the price is fixed in writing once the layout and products are agreed.

Do you cover NG1 in Nottingham?

Yes. We cover all of Nottingham, including NG1, NG3, NG5, NG6 and 2 more postcode districts, and nearby West Bridgford, Hucknall and Long Eaton. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Nottingham?

Who handles building control for a small bathroom in Nottingham?

Building control for Nottingham 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.

Is it worth taking the bath out of a small bathroom?

It is worth it if nobody in the house uses the bath. A walk-in shower in the same space gives more standing room, a lower step and a more open floor. If it is the only bath in a family home, consider keeping one, perhaps a 1500 or 1600 mm bath with a shower over it. Our small bathroom ideas guide covers more options.
