I'm trying to decide how best to renovate my 3 bed semi. Bathroom is on the ground floor and not very big. At present there's the bath, knackered boiler, sink and loo in there. The boiler needs replacing so a combi is probably the best choice then I can also ditch the immersion tank upstairs and the loft tanks. That removes a lot of pipework and makes more space. The bath, sink and loo are also well past their best so they need to be changed too.
I'm debating whether to just fit a nice shower and not bother replacing the bath. Combis take so long to fill them anyway I believe unless you fit a huge boiler. The space that saves could allow a bit of storage in the bathroom, maybe a coat cupboard. Do people really want/need a bath installed these days if there's also a shower?
