Lancashire
In short
Preston terrace-belt bathrooms sit over 100-year-old joists — the honest first task on any refit is joist inspection, then everything else follows.
Preston bathroom work leans toward terrace refits in Deepdale and Ribbleton, walk-in shower conversions in Fulwood and Penwortham semis, and straightforward newer-estate refits in Broughton.
Deepdale / Ribbleton terraces: 1.8m × 2.1m. Fulwood / Penwortham semis: 2.4m × 2.8m. Broughton newer estates: 2.2m × 2.6m.
Every quote includes a scale drawing before you sign — so you can see exactly what fits, what doesn't, and where the walk-in shower actually opens.
City Plumbing Preston (New Hall Lane), Plumb Center Bamber Bridge, Wolseley Preston and Selco Fulwood for boards.
Every quote lists the merchant, the manufacturer and the model — no mystery-branded fittings, no invoice-only prices. You can walk into the same trade counter and cross-check the price.
8–12 working days for a terrace refit; 12–15 for a Fulwood semi; 10–13 for a Broughton refit.
We publish the working-day count because the tanking cure (48h) and tile grout cure (24h) are physics, not fitter speed — skipping them causes leaks and popped tiles 6 months later.
£4,400–£6,600 for a terrace refit; £7,000–£10,500 for a Fulwood semi with walk-in shower; £5,800–£8,500 for a Broughton newer-estate refit.
Every price is confirmed in writing after the free plumber visit — itemised for fixtures, tanking, waste, extraction and tiling. Nothing billable starts until you approve the fair fixed quote, and there is nothing to pay us for the visit whether or not we can reasonably scope the job.
A Preston pattern is quoting a low headline number then adding £400 for joist doubling and £200 for waste rerouting mid-job. Insist on an itemised written quote.
Our promise on every Preston bathroom-fit call-out: a free visit to attend, survey and scope; an itemised written quote before any billable work; and 12 months guarantee on workmanship after completion.
"1930s semi, upstairs radiators barely warm and the shower kept losing pressure. Full balance, new TRVs on two rads and a magnetic filter — sorted for the price of what another firm quoted just for the flush."
— Rob N., Fulwood · Rad balance + filter, Fulwood
"Cellar stopcock hadn't been turned in twenty years and finally seized. KJ freed it, replaced it with a lever valve and labelled everything. Straightforward job, honest price."
— Sadia M., Deepdale · Stopcock replacement, Deepdale
"New-build filling loop was hidden behind the utility carcass. Found it, extended it neatly and labelled the isolators. Small job, made a big difference."
— Tom H., Cottam · Filling loop relocation, Cottam
