Garden-floor en-suite bathroom in Gateshead, North East. Bath plus separate shower in a small footprint by reconfiguring the door swing. ยฃ8640 all-in over 11 days. KBSA-aligned design service - the layout works much better than what we had drawn. Insurance loved the certification trail.

Used BestBuilders to find a bathroom fitter near Gateshead. Got the brief out on Monday, three quotes by Thursday lunch, mid-tier option, but they brought a tile sample to the survey. Drainage diversion needed council notification - sorted by them in 8 days. Already booked them for the en-suite next year.

Two years on now and the low-profile shower tray feels safer for the kids than the old stepped one. Sent a calendar reminder for the manufacturer warranty registration. Recommended to my sister-in-law - she used them too.
