New bathroom extract fans should achieve at least 15 litres per second.
Tile adhesive and grout need time to cure before the shower is used, so allow for it in the programme.
Creating a bathroom in a room that didn't have one is likely to need Building Regulations approval, from Wychavon District Council or a registered building control approver.

Which option fits your home?

Walk-in shower instead of a bath

Replacing the bath with a large low-profile tray and a glass panel makes the room feel bigger and is easier to step into. The waste needs a suitable fall, which can be tricky on timber floors, so the tray position and height are planned carefully. It's worth thinking about whether you'll want a bath when you sell.

Like-for-like refit

The new suite goes where the old one was, using the existing water and waste positions. It's the quickest and most affordable option, and it's often all a bathroom needs. Tiling, flooring, furniture and the shower choice can all change completely while the plumbing stays essentially the same.

How much should you budget in Droitwich Spa?

How do I book a survey in Droitwich Spa?

Send the form on this page, use the guide-price tool or call 0800 088 6248 free. We'll ask a few questions about your new bathroom and arrange a time to visit.

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.

Will I need permission from the council in Droitwich Spa?

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