Family bathroom with a bath, shower screen, vanity with drawers and a tall cupboard

A family bathroom for a Clermiston house

The Clermiston estate was started in 1954 as part of a council programme to relieve overcrowding in Leith and Gorgie. Houses from that programme are now around seventy years old.

After seventy years of use, a bathroom in a postwar house is often worn rather than wrong. The layout may be fine, but the bath, the tiles and the floor have had their day.

Wallpaper, old tiles and a plain white suite are common in houses that have not been touched for years. Starting again from the bare walls lets us get the room dry, level and ready for new finishes.

Floors and waste pipes

If the bathroom is upstairs, we check how the floor is built before we plan the waste pipe and any heavy item such as a stone-resin tray.

Space for a growing family

A vanity with drawers, a tall cupboard and a mirror cabinet clear the clutter. A shower over the bath keeps one room doing two jobs.

Updating a 1960s Clerwood bathroom or adding a shower room

Wimpey Homes built the Clerwood estate in 1963 on land the Clermiston scheme did not use. It sits on the western slopes of Corstorphine Hill, so it is worth looking at the route into each house before a bath or tray is ordered.

We check the front door, the hall and the stair when we visit, then plan how everything is carried in.

Choose a package first, then adjust the shower, storage and tiles to suit your budget.

Replacing an old bath with a shower

If one bathroom serves the whole house, you may still want the bath. Where there is a second toilet or a spare room, a shower room can take the pressure off.

Planning the delivery

We agree where the tray, the bath and the boards are kept while the job is running.

Bathroom Fitting Questions in Clermiston

Can you refit a bathroom in a house built in the 1950s?

Yes. We look at the floor, the pipe type and the waste route at the visit, and we say what we see before you choose a package.

My house has a narrow hall and a tight stair. Is that a problem?

No, but we plan for it. We check the route from the door to the bathroom at the visit so a bath or tray can be carried in safely.

Can I add a shower room to a Clermiston house?

Often yes. It depends on the space and the nearest waste pipe, so we measure and show you the options at the visit.

Is it worth replacing a bathroom that is about seventy years old?

If the bath, floor and walls are worn, a full refit usually gives a better result than keeping parts of it. We show the choices on a written quote.
