Options to consider in Atherstone

Panels or tiles

Large-format tiles look smart but need flat walls, careful setting out and waterproofing in the shower area. Waterproof wall panels go up faster, have fewer grout lines and can be fitted over sound existing surfaces. Many bathrooms mix the two, with panels in the shower and tiles elsewhere to suit both budget and look.

Layout change

Moving the toilet, bath or shower can make a small bathroom work much better. The toilet is the hardest to move because its large waste pipe needs a direct route and fall to the soil stack. Water supplies and smaller wastes are easier to reroute, especially under timber floors, where joists can be drilled within safe limits.

What does your new bathroom cost in Atherstone?

Expect to budget between £4,500 and £16,000 depending on size and specification in Atherstone. Full refit of a 2 m × 2.5 m family bathroom with a bath and shower over, tiled: typically £6,500–£8,500.

Your questions answered

What guarantees come with a new bathroom?

Baths, trays, toilets, taps, showers and furniture carry manufacturers' guarantees, and their terms are set out in your quote. Some shower manufacturers ask for an annual service or a registration after installation, and we'll tell you if yours does. You'll receive the electrical certificate for any notifiable work. If anything we fitted isn't right, call us.

Do you cover Atherstone?

Yes. Atherstone (CV9) is about 19 miles from our West Bromwich base and inside the area we cover. Call 0800 088 6248 or send the form on this page to book a free survey.

What if it's our only bathroom?

We plan around it. The toilet can usually be refitted temporarily at the end of most days, or put back early in the programme, so you're not without one overnight. The shower and bath will be out of use for most of the job, so it's worth arranging somewhere to shower, with family or at a gym, for a week or so.

Does North Warwickshire Borough Council need to approve my new bathroom?

You won't usually need planning permission, but the work must meet Building Regulations. Building control in Atherstone is provided by North Warwickshire Borough Council or a registered building control approver, and some work is self-certified by registered installers.
