| Aviemore Close, Ramsbottom - Master
En-suite Some people would consider the old bathroom
adequate for their needs but it despite it being functional it
wasn't particularly to the tastes of our homeowner, and the
new-build design features like the pokey shower left a lot to be
desired, particularly given the size of the room.
Our homeowners are both involved in design to differing extents and
as such had some very specific ideas and tastes for their personal
en-suite bathroom. They wanted a modern, clean and elegant
look and had enlisted a large Nationwide company to help work with
them on the layout of the room.
The proposed layout was pretty much as per the photographs with one
change - we proposed that instead of cramming another pokey shower
enclosure into the corner as the Nationwide company had suggested,
we instead constructed an open wet-area which would enhance the
feeling of space when showering.
Amazing tiles including matching ceramic corner pieces (rather than
the more traditional metal or plastic tile trim) meant this room
looks simply stunning with clean lines throughout.
We and our customer are really pleased with the room.
AWI installed this bathroom.

- Removal of the existing suite, wall & floor
covering

pipe-work and allow the WC cistern to be built in
