Bathrooms Tollerton
Tollerton has a historic core and a great deal of postwar and later housing around it, generally on larger plots than the equivalent suburban streets closer to the city. For bathrooms that usually means more room to work with and more than one to think about.
We fit across the village from our showroom on Derby Road in Stapleford, ten miles west, about twenty-four minutes.
Bigger rooms, better options
Where a family bathroom has genuine floor area, the choice worth making early is whether to separate the bath and the shower rather than compromising with one over the other. A shower over a bath is the arrangement nobody enjoys using and most people put up with because the room was assumed to be too small.
In a bathroom of decent size it is frequently not too small — it just needs planning as two zones rather than a suite pushed against three walls.

Bathrooms Tollerton, Nottingham
Tollerton has a historic core and a good deal of substantial postwar and later housing on plots noticeably bigger than the suburban equivalent closer to the city.
That space shows up in the bathrooms. There is frequently room to separate a bath from a walk-in shower rather than compromising with one over the other, and often an en-suite as well that can be specified as a pure shower room.
Two bathrooms used at the same time is where a lot of otherwise good installations disappoint. A system sized for one shower will not run two.
An unvented cylinder of the right capacity, or a suitably sized combi, is the part of the specification nobody photographs and everybody notices. It belongs in the plan from the start.

En-suites
Most of the later housing here has at least one, and they are the harder job. Small, frequently internal with no window, and ventilation decides whether the room stays pleasant or turns damp within a year.
An extractor on a run-on timer, ducted to an outside wall. Ducting into a loft void is not a substitute and it is still the commonest thing we find wrong in en-suites.
Wall-hung furniture
Suits this housing and looks right in it. The floor running underneath makes even a generous bathroom feel more open, and modern construction with regular walls makes it straightforward.
It needs a frame fixed back to something structural — in a stud wall, opening it up and adding noggins. Worth confirming that is priced into anything you are comparing, because it is the part most commonly left out.

The older core
Period property with thicker walls, ceilings that vary and floors that have settled. Fitted furniture scribed to the wall rather than sat against it, and useful unused height above a standard vanity that can be built up into.
