Future
proofed
THE team at A61 Bathrooms
have completely transformed
the bathroom at a terraced
property in Woodseats.
The householders wanted to
future-proof their single
bathroom by having the bath
replaced by a walk-in shower.
There had not been a
complete update of the space
for some 30 years and a vast
improvement was achieved thanks to a reconfiguration
of the layout by business owner,
Craig Leighton.
The client takes up the story: “We like to use
local businesses where we can. We’d seen
some of the other projects that A61 Bathrooms
have done in Active8 magazine and we know
they have been there a while, so we called in at
the premises on Chesterfield Road. We spoke to
Craig, who was really friendly and then came
out to talk about our ideas.
“Having the bathroom done was long overdue
but Craig has given us everything we asked for
by changing things around a bit.”
The A61 fitter, Dave, also came in for
particular praise, overseeing all of the
installation work from full strip-out to
completion with eight full days.
“Dave came in and just got on with the job – he
was brilliant,” commented the client.
A complete refit of the room was delivered by
A61 Bathrooms, including electrical work and
new flooring. All of the old fixtures and fittings
were removed in a timely manner. A couple of
minor issues arose as work progressed but
were quickly rectified.
The ceiling has been lowered and fitted with
downlighting and new waterproof panelling
throughout has eliminated the any need for
grouting, ensuring the new bathroom stays like
new.
