Working in East Grinstead

In East Grinstead we cover RH19; we also cover Horley, 7.5 miles away, and Crawley.

In East Grinstead, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If nobody in your East Grinstead 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 your East Grinstead bathroom is a box room over the stairs, the first job is finding out where the soil stack lets the WC sit.

Supplies across most of West Sussex are 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
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
Recessed niches, mirror cabinets and wall-hung vanity units to get storage off the floor

Decisions to make first

Glass

Clear glass with a slim profile or none lets the eye travel through the room. A fixed panel needs no clearance for a door to swing.

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.

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.

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.
