Bathroom Refurbishments in Sissinghurst
Serving Sissinghurst & surrounding areas
Sissinghurst bathrooms in period homes are often tucked into former box rooms or against chimney recesses — awkward footprints that need re-planning, not just re-fitting.

Bathroom Refurbishments for Sissinghurst homes
Why Sissinghurst bathroom refurbishments briefs are different
We re-plan Sissinghurst bathrooms to claim back floor area — relocating soil stacks into stud walls and fitting wall-hung WCs to make small rooms feel substantially larger.
Sissinghurst is a small but architecturally rich village of converted oast houses, weatherboarded cottages and a tight cluster of farmhouses near The Street.
Local considerations
Proximity to Sissinghurst Castle Garden means heritage officers at Tunbridge Wells take a noticeably tougher view on glazing styles and external finishes.
Many properties sit on heavy clay subsoil that shrinks dramatically in dry summers — we routinely build allowances for seasonal movement into structural design.
The risk in a bathroom is always water management — bad tanking shows up six months later, not at handover. We treat it as the critical-path detail.
What Sissinghurst clients ask for
Most enquiries are for ensuites or family bathrooms in 1990s–2000s housing where the original suite has tired out; wet rooms are a fast-growing second category.
Recent local project
We re-planned a 1980s Sissinghurst family bathroom into a walk-in shower room with twin basin vanity, replacing a corner bath with a 1200mm walk-in shower.
Our process
How a bathroom refurbishments project in Sissinghurst runs
- Step 1
Visit & measure
We measure the room, check below-floor access for waste runs and identify whether the boiler can handle the new fittings.
- Step 2
Design & spec
Layouts that resolve the awkward bits — soil-stack relocation, glass screen positions, niche placement — before tile selection.
- Step 3
Strip & tank
Full strip, board out, and tanking on shower walls and wet-room floors.
- Step 4
First & second fix
Plumbing, electrics, tiling, sanitaryware and vanity install run consecutively to avoid trade overlap.
- Step 5
Finish & guarantee
Silicone, grout sealing and a written 5-year guarantee on workmanship.

FAQs
Bathroom Refurbishments in Sissinghurst — frequently asked
Can soil stacks be moved in period properties?
Yes — usually into a stud false wall.
How long does it take?
10–14 working days for most.
Will my existing boiler cope with a bigger shower?
We check flow rate and pressure at survey. Most combi boilers handle a single drencher; multi-head and rain showers usually need an unvented cylinder upgrade.
How long does a bathroom refurbishment take?
Family bathrooms run 10–14 working days on site; wet rooms with built-up floors take 15–20 days because of the tanking and screed cure times.
Can I see work you've completed near Sissinghurst?
Yes — ask at the site visit and we'll point you to completed projects in and around Sissinghurst, and to clients happy to be contacted.
