Hi, our house is quite old and has an existing downstairs bathroom (no upstairs bathroom). The bathroom is pretty grotty and small and we want to replace it and extend it a little. It's beside our kitchen so it will mean getting a wall moved, so that the already-small-kitchen is made smaller and the bathroom bigger.
