Bathroom Ideas
Ideas for a flat bathroom with a shower, a small cottage room, and a family bathroom in a larger house.
Bathroom installation in Gorebridge flats above Main Street shops
Main Street is lined with two-storey terraced buildings, with shops on the ground floor and homes above. The council's appraisal says many ground-floor shops have since become homes.
Buildings that started as shops were not planned around a bathroom, so we look at how the pipes and the waste leave the room.
Waste routes in a converted shop
A former shop can be deep, with no outside wall at the back of the room. We plan the extractor and the waste route before the layout.
Upstairs access
With a flat above the street, we agree how the tray, panels and units reach the room and protect the stair on the way.
Hunterfield Road cottages: making a small mining-era bathroom work
Hunterfield Road has coal mining cottages with steeply pitched roofs and regular chimney stacks, set back behind rubble sandstone walls and hedges. Rooms in cottages like these can be small, and a chimney breast can take a bite out of one wall.
A vanity chosen to suit the room, rather than a standard unit, makes more of the space.
Small rooms
Swap the bath for a shower tray, add a slim vanity and a recessed shelf, and a small room often feels less cramped.
Thick walls
Rubble sandstone is slow to cut, so we choose pipe routes with care and say so in the quote.
Villas and newer estates in Gorebridge
Business owners built villas on Private Road, behind Main Street. Over the 20th century and since, large housing estates have been added around the old centre.
Villa rooms are usually bigger. Estate homes tend to have regular rooms and builder-fitted suites.
Villa bathrooms
With extra floor space, a walk-in shower can sit beside the bath.
Estate bathrooms and en-suites
These are often straightforward to refit. The decisions are screen size, storage and the wall finish.

Bathroom Fitting Questions in Gorebridge
Can you fit a bathroom in a flat above a Main Street shop?
Yes. We look over the floor, the waste route and the way in, and then work out how materials get up to the flat without damaging the stair. The written quote lists what is included.
Is Gorebridge Main Street a conservation area?
Yes. Midlothian Council designated the Gorebridge Conservation Area in 1978, focused on Main Street. If your home is inside it, ask the council about changes visible from outside, such as windows and vents.
Do you cover Gorebridge and the villages around it?
Gorebridge falls within our area, along with Edinburgh and the places around it. Call 0131 357 3869 with your postcode and we will confirm the arrangements.
Can a mining cottage bathroom be made bigger?
Sometimes a room can be reorganised rather than enlarged, for example by swapping a bath for a tray. We measure, check the walls and chimney breast, then show what is realistic.
