Traditional Marble and Burlington Family Shower Room

As part of a multi-room project, this family shower room had the marble makeover we all dream of! Transformed from a tired bathroom that hadn't had any attention for many years, into this spacious, walk-in and bespoke shower room.

Our customer wanted simplicity for this room whilst also making a statement and incorporating comfort for all. The large 1200 x 600 marble tiles used throughout the room both on the walls and floor are simply mesmerising and command attention as you walk through the doorway.

Having gold veins in the tiles means that all of the other gold features in the room blend in seamlessly rather than standing out - it was exactly the right balance and look that our customer was after. Gold was incorporated in everything from the taps and shower fittings, to the toilet accessories, mirror surround, tile trims you name it, we included it!

To ensure that the gold wasn't overwhelming, we kept the shower frame minimalistic by having a single wall profile. The shower panels were commissioned pieces of glass meaning that they were bespoke for this specific shower space (this involved a glass manufacturer measuring the area, making the glass and then returning once the room was complete to deliver the glass to which we can then install accordingly).

Together with our design team and customer, we all agreed that the investment into having a bespoke shower area was well worthwhile inorder to create a spacious showering area whilst not compromising on the spaciousness of the entire room. By creating a set back entrance to the shower area, you extend the floor space whilst retaining the actual arm/body space within the shower. The way to achieve this is by using bespoke glass and also bespoke shower trays that are either:

1. Custom made or;

2. Cuttable and therefore, cut down to size and shape as required.

We built an in shower seat which can be used as a shelf to place toiletries, a place to rest your legs whilst shaving or a seat to just take a moment and let your conditioner sink in or enjoy the sound of the water and the heat surrounding you.

Whoever said my bathroom is too small for that', normally, where there's a will, there's a way. Sometimes you just need to think outside of the box.

  • Very happy with the finished room

    Very pleased with NBK's suggestions and thoughtful design ideas for the creation of an upstairs shower room in our loft conversion. It wasn't the simplest or most straightforward of jobs but was tackled with a "can do/will do" attitude from the very start to completion of the finishing touches. Everyone we dealt with was fantastic and the onsite team a delight to have here. We are very, very happy with the finished room.

  • Delighted with our new Kitchen

    We are delighted with our new kitchen from NBK. All the team were helpful, professional and friendly, and the standard of workmanship was very high. A special mention for James, our fitter, who consulted us throughout the installation to make sure we were happy with everything, and came up with lots of useful suggestions. Nothing was too much trouble and it was a pleasure to have him in our home. We would have no hesitation in recommending NBK to others - many thanks for a job well done.

  • Lovely people who we loved having in the house!

    This is the most outstanding company I have ever had the pleasure of working with. They are honestly head and shoulders above the rest. I have very high standards and they met them all with ease. From the moment we went to the showroom, they remained true to their word and delivered on every promise. Rachel is incredible, she is organised, knowledgable and takes great pride in her work. Tony is a fantastic designer with incredible knowledge and know how. He gave us huge time and energy and as a result we ended up with the kitchen of our dreams! Matt must be a time-bending magician because despite running many projects simultaneously, he still made us feel like the only customers on earth, nothing is too much and he delivers on everything. Ed, Stu and Ashley did a sublime job of fitting, creating and making our kitchen and bespoke every detail to an exceptional standard. They are also lovely people who we loved having in the house! This company genuinely care about doing a good job and as a result they do an exceptional one. I can honestly say I will never use anyone else if I can use NBK and I am already saving up for my bathrooms!

  • The result exceeded our expectations

    Lee Howard our fitter did an excellent job,the result exceeded our expectations. We moved out for 11 days to our campervan to allow work to proceed unhindered and contact was maintained throughout by Lee and Ryan.They were not the cheapest but as they say “you get what you pay for” and this was certainly the case. Would certainly recommend.

  • They made it all easy.

    I can't rate NBK highly enough. Had our bathroom remodelled and they made it easy from start to finish. Other than doing all the nice things like choosing the tiles and fixtures and fittings they did all the heavy lifting. They project managed and made sure all the trades were there when needed. Had a super guy - shout out to Josh - who was on time everyday and carried out the bulk of the work to an extremely high standard. We had a slight issue at the end of the project when one of our fixtures was scratched - they sorted it out and made sure we were happy. Doing renovations can always be a little daunting, but they made it all easy, and now we have a stunning bathroom. Thank you all at NBK.

  • Exceeded my expectations and totally worth it.

    What can I say? Can't recommend NBK highly enough. James was great planning my vision with total honesty about what would work and what wouldn't and the likely cost - it was just what I asked for. An enjoyable experience and good chats through the months with Covid having an impact. Ryan talked me through the changes they needed to make to the plan during the install. Dan was a great fitter - making minor amendments where needed and sorted out my very important drawer for all the bits I use every day, a small thing I know but essential for me! Aftersales has been way more than I expected - the whole team is fantastic. We all love our bathroom and enjoy it every day with some very positive comments from visiting tradesmen about being the best bathroom they have been in! So thank you to every one of you who made it a reality, we will enjoy this for years. Its not cheap but exceeded my expectations and totally worth it.

    Fantastic journey with NBK from re-designing a bespoke bathroom to maximising the space to fit our requirements. Gareth and Kathryn were excellent in providing ideas and experience to help us design our bathroom. Lee who completed the installation was brilliant with a keen eye for detail and high worksmanship. Big thanks to the whole team at NBK who helped our bathroom come together.

  • Special thanks to Matt, Mark and David!

    We have recently had a new kitchen fitted with NBK and were delighted with the process, start to finish. All of those involved were professional yet friendly, and competent in their work. Special thanks to Matt for his excellent problem-solving, Mark for his skilful fitting and attention to detail and to David for resolving an existing electrical botch job! We could not be happier with the outcome and would thoroughly recommend NBK. Thanks to all involved.
