Why bathrooms in Frome are different

Frome has a heavy stock of converted mills and warehouse apartments — bathrooms in these conversions often span exposed brick walls, suspended slabs and tight service voids. Section 701 zoning still applies; the challenge is routing IP-rated cable cleanly without spoiling the loft aesthetic.

Georgian and Victorian terraces around Catherine Hill have small period bathrooms with tight zones and original lath-and-plaster ceilings — we work surface-clip or chase carefully where conservation allows.

Frome is 25 minutes from our base — we cover the BA11 postcode regularly and survey within the week for most enquiries.

Common questions

Can you do bathroom electrics in a Frome mill conversion?

Yes — we work with the suspended slabs and exposed-brick aesthetic. Cables run in service voids or surface conduit to suit the look, IP44+ everywhere, RCD-protected, full Section 701 zone compliance. Minor Works or EIC issued.

How long does a bathroom rewire take?

Single-circuit jobs (extractor, towel rail, shaver, mirror) are 1 day. A shower circuit replace is normally 1 day. A full bathroom rewire (extractor, lighting, shaver, towel rail, shower) is 2-3 days for first-fix and 1 day for second-fix after the tiling is in.

What is BS 7671 Section 701 and why does it matter?

Section 701 of BS 7671 is the special-locations chapter for rooms with baths and showers. It defines Zones 0, 1 and 2 around the bath/shower and dictates IP rating and what fittings are permitted in each zone. Zone 0 is inside the bath itself (12V SELV only). Zone 1 is above the rim (IP65, 30mA RCD). Zone 2 is the area within 0.6m of zone 1 (IP44 minimum). Outside zones is 'general' but RCD protection is still required on every circuit serving the bathroom.
