Kempston bathrooms, from our Ampthill base
Kempston is on the south-west side of Bedford, an easy drive from our base in Ampthill. It is one of the larger towns we cover, and we plan our jobs so Kempston customers get the same attention as those on our doorstep.
The housing here varies a lot. Older Victorian and Edwardian terraces near the town centre and along Bedford Road often have small bathrooms at the back of the house, sometimes added long after it was built. Large post-war and later estates bring family bathrooms that have not been touched in decades. Newer developments on the edges of town bring modern en-suites fitted to a budget.
Each type brings its own challenges. Terrace bathrooms often mean working in a tight space with old pipework and awkward waste routes. Estate homes often need tired pipework and extractor fans replaced. New builds often need the en-suite waterproofed properly. We price for the house you actually have, after we have seen it.
Common Kempston jobs include full family bathroom refits, turning a bath into a walk-in shower, accessible bathrooms for older or disabled residents, and everyday plumbing. Bathrooms and kitchens are quoted at a fixed price. Smaller jobs are typically £60 per hour, and emergency call-outs are £120 per hour, 24/7.

Common Kempston bathroom problems
Kempston's mix of terraces, estates and new builds means we see a wide range of problems. Hard water makes most of them worse.
Cramped terrace bathrooms
Many older terraces have a narrow bathroom at the back of the house, often above the kitchen. A poor layout wastes space and makes the room feel smaller. We plan the layout carefully, sometimes moving the toilet or using a shower instead of a bath, so the room works better.
Old waste pipes and soil stacks
Older homes often have tired waste pipes with poor slopes, causing slow drainage and smells. We replace what is failing during the refit rather than connecting new fittings to old problems.
Mould from missing extraction
Bathrooms without a proper extractor fan often suffer from condensation, mould and peeling paint. Our electrician fits a properly sized fan, vented outside.
Leaking en-suites in newer homes
Budget en-suites often lack waterproofing behind the tiles. Once water gets in, the only proper fix is to strip back, waterproof and retile.
