Practical, hard-wearing bathroom specs that look good on viewings and don't generate maintenance call-outs.
A good rental bathroom doesn't need to be fancy. It needs to look clean, function reliably for years, and not generate call-outs. Here's the spec we recommend to Lincoln landlords.
The MHC rental bathroom spec
- P-shape bath with shower screen — looks generous, easier to clean than a corner bath
- Square-pattern tiles to 1.8m around the bath, half-tile elsewhere
- Concealed cistern with chrome flush plate — fewer leak points
- Single-lever basin tap with ceramic disc cartridge
- Humidity-tracked extractor fan with 15-min overrun timer
- Tongue-and-groove panelling? No — LVT or tile only on floors
Where landlords commonly over-spec — and waste money
- Rainfall shower heads — slower flow, more complaints
- Vessel basins — chip on first knock
- Wood-effect wall panels — mould in 2 winters
- Designer mixer taps — replacement parts impossible to source
