Why bathrooms in Wells are different

Wells is the smallest cathedral city in England — the historic core has tight stone-built bathrooms shoehorned into Georgian and Victorian terraces, where Section 701 zoning is genuinely tight. We measure every zone before specifying fittings.

Wells suburbs and surrounding villages mix modern estates with character properties — straightforward bathroom rewires alongside heritage work. We issue full Minor Works or EIC certs on every job.

Wells is local to our Glastonbury base — we cover Wells daily and can usually survey the same week.

Common questions

How quickly can you reach a Wells bathroom?

Wells is 6 miles from our Glastonbury base — same-day for emergency isolations or shower failures, same-week for full bathroom rewires.

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.
