- Where there's no openable window, the fan should run on for around 15 minutes after the light goes off.
- Moving the toilet is the hardest change, because its waste pipe needs a direct route and fall to the soil stack.
- New bathroom extract fans should achieve at least 15 litres per second.

Options to consider in Kidderminster
Bath with shower over
Still the most practical layout for many family bathrooms, especially with young children. A shower over the bath needs a fixed glass screen, a well-sealed bath and tiling or panelling to full height. Choosing between a mixer shower and an electric shower depends on your boiler and water pressure, which we test at the survey.
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.
