Working in Highnam
A village just west of Gloucester, Highnam's mix of Victorian properties and modern estates presents varied bathroom installation challenges.
Highnam has a Victorian core near the church with extensive 1980s and 1990s housing development to the south.
Some older Highnam properties near the River Leadon have high water tables affecting ground-floor bathroom drainage.
the Severn Vale gets damp winters with heavy rainfall. Bathrooms need good ventilation and proper waterproofing, condensation on cold stone walls is a particular issue in older properties.
properties in the Severn floodplain areas around Tewkesbury and Gloucester should consider ground-floor bathroom resilience, easily removable lower panels and raised electrical sockets are practical precautions.
