A well-designed bathroom should look beautiful, but it also needs to work beautifully every day.
At Willis Heating Ltd, we design and install bathrooms for homeowners throughout Newhaven, Seaford, Peacehaven, Lewes and the surrounding area. From a contemporary shower room or practical family bathroom to an en-suite or complete bathroom renovation, we’ll help you create a space that suits your home, your style and the way you want to use it.
And because we’re experienced plumbing and heating engineers as well as bathroom installers, we consider everything behind the finished bathroom too—from plumbing and water pressure to heating, ventilation and hot water.

The best bathroom isn’t necessarily the one with the most expensive fittings. It’s the one that’s been properly designed for the space available and for the people who will be using it.
That’s why we start by understanding what you want from the room.
Perhaps you’d like to replace a bath you rarely use with a generous walk-in shower. You might need more storage in a busy family bathroom, want to create an en-suite, or be looking for a more luxurious bathroom where you can relax at the end of the day.
We’ll look at the room, discuss your ideas and help you consider what’s possible.
That can include:
Good design isn’t just about choosing how everything looks. It’s about bringing all those elements together so that the finished bathroom feels right.

There’s no single definition of a beautiful bathroom.
You might prefer the clean lines and simplicity of a contemporary bathroom, the character of a more traditional design, or something warmer and more individual.
Simple lines, uncluttered surfaces and carefully chosen fittings can create a calm, modern bathroom. Wall-hung furniture, walk-in showers, large-format tiles and concealed storage can all help create a clean, spacious feel.
Period-style sanitaryware, classic taps, freestanding baths and carefully chosen tiles can give a bathroom character without sacrificing modern comfort.
If you want the bathroom to feel like somewhere to escape rather than simply somewhere to shower, we can explore features such as a generous bath, rainfall shower, soft lighting and underfloor heating to create a more relaxing space.
A smaller bathroom doesn’t have to feel compromised.
The right layout, appropriately sized sanitaryware, good storage and careful use of light can make a surprisingly big difference. Sometimes changing the position of a bath, basin or shower can completely transform how the room works.
We’ll help you make the most of the space you have rather than trying to squeeze too much into it.

Different bathrooms have different jobs to do.
A family bathroom needs to cope with busy mornings and plenty of use. An en-suite might need to make excellent use of a compact space. A downstairs shower room may need to be practical above everything else.
We can design and install:
We’ll help you balance appearance, practicality and budget to create something that works for your household.
A beautiful bathroom depends just as much on the quality of the installation as it does on the products you choose.
There is a lot going on behind bathroom walls and floors. Pipework, drainage, waterproofing, heating and ventilation all need to be properly considered before the finishing touches are added.
With Willis Heating, you have experienced plumbing and heating professionals involved in your bathroom project from the outset.
Depending on the project, the work can include:
We’ll discuss the work involved before the project starts so you know what to expect.
Stepping onto a warm floor can make a real difference to how a bathroom feels, particularly during the colder months.
Underfloor heating also removes the need to rely entirely on a radiator and can give you greater freedom when planning the room layout.
As heating specialists, Willis Heating can advise on whether underfloor heating is appropriate for your bathroom and incorporate it into the project from the beginning.

One of the advantages of asking a plumbing and heating company to install your bathroom is that we understand the systems the bathroom relies upon.
There’s little point choosing an impressive shower without first considering whether your existing hot water system and water pressure can deliver the performance you’re expecting.
Similarly, moving sanitaryware isn’t simply a design decision—the existing water supplies, waste pipes and drainage all need to be considered.
We’ll look at the practicalities as part of the planning process and advise you if changes to the plumbing, heating or hot water system would improve the finished result.
It means the bathroom isn’t simply designed to look good on the day it’s completed. It’s designed to work properly too.
Having a bathroom renovated involves several different stages, and we want the process to feel as straightforward as possible.
We’ll talk about the room, what you like and dislike about your current bathroom, your ideas for the new one and the budget you’re working with.
We’ll consider the available space, layout, plumbing and heating requirements and help you make the important decisions about the new room.
This is where you can start bringing your own style into the project, choosing the sanitaryware, furniture, shower, taps, tiles, finishes and other details that will shape the finished bathroom.
Our experienced team will undertake the installation, paying attention to both the work you can see and the plumbing and heating behind it.
Once everything is installed, we’ll complete the final checks and make sure you’re happy with your new bathroom.
You don’t always have to start from scratch.
If the layout of your existing bathroom works well, it may be possible to transform the room by replacing dated sanitaryware, installing a new shower, changing the tiles or flooring and updating the heating.
We’ll talk through what’s worth retaining and what would benefit from replacement rather than automatically recommending that everything comes out.
If you know you want a new bathroom but haven’t decided exactly how it should look, that’s absolutely fine.
Completed bathrooms are often the best source of inspiration. Seeing different combinations of tiles, colours, furniture, baths, showers and fittings can help you discover what you like—and sometimes what you don’t.
