Now booked out until the end of January, David says he puts it down to people having more disposable income since no one is travelling as well as more start opting for a ‘lifestyle’ bathroom.
“It’s no longer just about what suits the customer and his or her family now but what will suffice for them in the next 10 or 15 years,” he said.
“More people are spending time in the house or working from home and so they have more time to consider what does and doesn’t work for them.”
With more people planning for the future, David says hand showers, walk-in showers and decorative grab rails are among the most popular choices.

The family business is now run and managed by Fred and Rose’s children.
