Durability & high-traffic
When refurbishing college washrooms, it is essential to balance a welcoming environment with the need for security and damage prevention. We are experts in creating open plan washroom layouts that enhance visibility in communal areas while maintaining total individual privacy. This design strategy is a proven method for improving the safety and longevity of the sixth form environment.
To protect your investment and ensure long-term performance, we offer robust features such as solid plasterboard ceilings and recessed hand dryers to minimise points of failure. Our designs are fully compliant with all current building regulations, providing safe and secure environments for everyone on campus.
Modern & inclusive design
A successful sixth form washroom refurbishment must offer a high-quality finish that aligns with your institution's branding and professional image. We believe in creating spaces that are both functional and visually impressive. Our designs feature contemporary colour palettes and high-specification materials to make the washrooms feel modern and sophisticated.
To ensure maximum student privacy, we install full-height cubicles with minimal floor and ceiling gaps as standard. We can also incorporate gender-neutral layouts to support your inclusion policies and provide flexible facilities for a diverse student body. Let our expertise in designing stylish and comfortable spaces support your college in fostering a positive campus experience.
Sustainability & efficiency
Understanding the importance of hygiene and longevity in further education, Focus Washrooms designs facilities that are both sanitary and durable. We utilise Solid Grade Laminate (SGL) for cubicles and vanity units because it is impact resistant, waterproof and easy to clean.
We can incorporate technology, such as sensor taps and automatic soap dispensers to minimise the spread of germs and reduce water wastage. Our designs consider the cleaning staff by ensuring that the washrooms can be kept in pristine condition with minimal effort. Using hygienic wall cladding and seamless flooring prevents dirt traps and ensures a long-lasting, fresh environment that withstands the rigours of a busy college day.

Insights
FAQs
-
Sixth form and college students expect a more mature, professional environment similar to a modern workplace. We often move away from bright primary colours toward a more sophisticated palette with high-end finishes like wood-effect laminates and sleek, contemporary taps.
-
For colleges, individual "Superloos" are highly popular. These are self-contained cubicles that include a toilet, sink and hand dryer. They provide the ultimate level of privacy and inclusivity for young adults and are often easier to manage in terms of maintenance and security.
-
We install water-saving sensor taps and dual-flush cisterns to significantly lower utility bills. For energy efficiency, we recommend LED lighting with PIR sensors so that lights are only active when the washrooms are occupied, which is particularly effective in buildings with varying timetables.
