Working in Aston

In Aston we cover B6, B7 and B19; we also cover Birmingham, 1.5 miles away, and Washwood Heath.

Homes in and around Aston vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If nobody in your Aston 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 Aston with a compact bathroom, swapping a pedestal basin and close-coupled WC for wall-hung pieces is often the biggest single gain.

Hardness differs from one part of the West Midlands to the next. Easy-clean glass and good-quality brassware are money well spent. 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
Boarding, tanking and tiling, with larger tiles where they suit the walls to cut down grout lines
Strip-out, waste removal, testing and a clean handover

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.

Storage

Recess shelves into stud walls or boxing, put a mirror cabinet over the basin and use the wall above the WC. Avoid floor-standing units in very tight rooms.

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 Aston: questions

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

A small bathroom in Aston usually costs £4,400–£8,300 including VAT. Room size, layout changes and your choice of products move the figure within that range. The free survey gives you an itemised quote, fixed in writing once the details are agreed.

How long does a small bathroom take?

Allow 5–8 working days on site for most jobs, plus the lead time for products after you approve the quote. We give you a day-by-day plan before work starts in Aston.

Is the home survey in Aston 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 B6 in Aston?

Yes. We cover all of Aston, including B6, B7 and B19, and nearby Birmingham, Washwood Heath and Smethwick. 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.
