Bathroom Ideas
Ideas for a bungalow shower room, a terrace bathroom with a shower over the bath and a family bathroom.
Bathroom installation in older Cockenzie and Port Seton terraces
Cockenzie and Port Seton began as two fishing and salt-making villages that grew together. Along the shore there are terraces with crowstepped gables built by the Wemyss Estate in 1882, and Victorian and Edwardian houses behind them.
Bathrooms in houses like these are often small and were added after the house was built. We measure carefully, because a few centimetres decide whether a basin or a storage unit fits.
Narrow rooms
A long, thin bathroom suits a bath with a shower over it, or a shower in place of the bath with the basin beside it.
Conservation area
Cockenzie and Port Seton has its own conservation area. We agree any outside vent or window change before work starts.
Walk-in showers for bungalows and single-level living
East of the old villages there are 1930s bungalows. Public housing was built to the south from before the Second World War through the 1950s and 1960s, and private housing came after that.
Bungalow bathrooms tend to be one room serving the whole house. A level-access shower, a raised toilet and a handrail where needed can make that room easier to use for years.
Level-access showers
A wet room style shower with a flat floor is easier to step into and to keep clean.
Planning for later
If you want to stay in the house long term, we can plan grab-rail positions and a seat at the start, so they are not an afterthought.
Fitting a bathroom for the sea air
Port Seton and Cockenzie sit on the Firth of Forth, so salty air and damp can reach the house. That is practical advice, not a reason to worry, because good ventilation and the right wall finishes cope well.
If the house is a second home or a holiday let, a hard-wearing bathroom with few grout lines is easier to keep fresh between guests.
Ventilation
A properly sized extractor fan, ducted outside, keeps steam out of the room.
Wall finishes
Wet wall panels and large tiles cut down on grout, which is where mould usually starts.

Bathroom Fitting Questions in Cockenzie and Port Seton
Do you fit bathrooms in Port Seton bungalows?
Yes. We replace the bath with a level-access shower, fit a raised toilet and add rails where you want them. At the visit we look at the floor and where the drain sits before the layout is agreed.
Is Cockenzie and Port Seton a conservation area?
Yes, East Lothian Council lists a Cockenzie and Port Seton conservation area. Work inside the room is rarely affected. A window change or outside vent can be, so we plan those early and you can check with the council.
Does sea air affect a new bathroom?
It can add damp, so ventilation matters. We fit a properly sized extractor and use wall panels or large tiles to reduce grout lines.
Is there a railway station in Cockenzie and Port Seton?
No. The nearest is Prestonpans, and buses serve the town. The home design visit is held at your house, so you need not go anywhere.
