Working in Podsmead
A well-connected Gloucester estate, Podsmead residents regularly upgrade their bathrooms and plumbing for improved comfort and efficiency.
Podsmead features 1950s-60s social housing alongside more recent private developments in a well-connected location.
Podsmead's concrete-constructed properties may need specialist fixings for wall-hung bathroom furniture rather than standard wall plugs.
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.
