Has anyone on here had a bathroom revamp and decided against having a bath?


I'm really undecided, but never take a bath! (the waste of water mainly)

If you have done this and regretted it tell me why?


The room is small with no window and I think it could look great with the right builder, but I want opinions

I redid my bathroom 5yrs ago, to provide my first ever shower !

I also made provision for a Bath, a lovely roll top claw feet number.

Thing is, I haven?t plumbed the Bath in yet, and that?s after being a Bath-fiend all my life 🤣

Would only take a day or so (need to get through 9? wall and fit the waste pipes etc).

So baths not essential IMO.

We are lucky to have a downstairs shower room and loo, upstairs bathroom has a bath which has not been used for about 10 years plus. Hubby and I have difficulty with arthritis in legs and hips to actually get in bath We have a bath seat which has never been used. I was advised many years ago by my GP to avoid baths as they aggregated my skin which was prone to rashes. Since having a shower, I have not had a repeat of this skin condition - I tell people that I have not had a bath for over 30 years!

We?ve got a ?bathless? shower room. It?s got a loo, and a basin + a nice walk in shower. It?s great!


The other bathroom has a bath, but I only ever use it to shower in. However, baby boy is only 10 months, so it?s great for him. Other than that, no bath? No problemo!


Are you thinking of selling anytime in the future?

    • You can get a card at the till, though, to get the discount. You don't have to carry it with you (or load it onto your phone), you can just get a different card each time. Not sure what happens if they notice 🤣
    • Yes..that may be the case but membership STARTING at £115 a month is still unafforable for many. Council gyms also have a large range of equipment and I had a  PT at Dulwich leisure centre when I was in Full Time employment who was incredible and even kept in contact during lockdown giving me a program I could do at home and checking in weekly at no charge or personal gain for herself. I dont doubt that Fit For may be a good gym (Its been in situ long enough so must be doing something right) However the cost of membership means it is affordable for the few not the many. If I could afford that kind of fee I would rather get a train to Canary Wharf and go to Virgin active where theres a pool and incredible classes and facilities 
    • This sounds great 👍 
    • We found a red TREK bike yesterday that had clearly been stolen and dumped. Would love to reunite it with its owner. Get in touch if you know whose it is.
