Bath is a UNESCO World Heritage Georgian city, bathrooms are often retrofitted into former dressing rooms or bedroom alcoves, with thick stone external walls and shared chimney breasts. Section 701 zone planning is critical before drilling: every IP-rated fitting, shaver point and extractor needs to be placed against the actual zone diagram, not assumed.
Listed and conservation-zone properties need surface-mount or chase routes that don't damage original lath-and-plaster ceilings. We plan cable runs through joist voids and existing service voids wherever possible.
Heavy holiday-let and B&B market, bathroom electrics are inspected on every 5-yearly landlord EICR, so we issue full Minor Works or EIC certs that drop straight into the property file.

Bath bathrooms range from a single extractor swap to a full refurb in a listed townhouse, so we don't publish a price list. The price depends on access, cable routes, the existing wiring and whether the room is being refurbed at the same time. The survey is free and the written quote is fixed, with VAT shown on its own line.
Yes. Listed bathrooms in Bath need careful zone planning and minimal-intervention cable routes. We work to BS 7671 Section 701 in full but coordinate routing with conservation requirements, typically running cables in existing service voids, behind skirting, or surface-clipped where chasing original stone is not permitted. Full LBC documentation supplied.
Single-circuit jobs (extractor, towel rail, shaver, mirror) are 1 day. A shower circuit replace is normally 1 day. A full bathroom rewire (extractor, lighting, shaver, towel rail, shower) is 2-3 days for first-fix and 1 day for second-fix after the tiling is in.
Section 701 of BS 7671 is the special-locations chapter for rooms with baths and showers. It defines Zones 0, 1 and 2 around the bath/shower and dictates IP rating and what fittings are permitted in each zone. Zone 0 is inside the bath itself (12V SELV only). Zone 1 is above the rim (IP65, 30mA RCD). Zone 2 is the area within 0.6m of zone 1 (IP44 minimum). Outside zones is 'general' but RCD protection is still required on every circuit serving the bathroom.
