Working in Rottingdean

As well as Rottingdean itself (BN2 and BN10), we survey in Peacehaven, Brighton and Hove.

Rottingdean gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. Whether you are in Rottingdean or elsewhere in East Sussex, layout options come with an itemised written quote. If your Rottingdean bathroom has a soil stack in an awkward corner, the design starts there, because it is the one point that is costly to move.

Most of East Sussex has hard water. We plan easy-clean glass, rimless toilets and finishes that do not show limescale. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

A lighting and electrical plan showing switches, fittings, shaver socket and extractor fan
A product list covering the suite, brassware, furniture, tiles, lighting and ventilation
A measured survey of the room, including ceiling heights, slopes, window and door positions and any boxing
A conversation about who uses the room, when, and what does not work about the current one

Decisions to make first

Storage

Fitted furniture, a vanity with a tall cupboard, or recessed niches and a mirror cabinet. Recessed storage costs no floor space but needs a stud wall or deep boxing to sit in.

Keep or change the layout

Keeping the WC and shower where they are saves on plumbing. The WC is the costly one to move, because it is tied to the soil stack.

Rules that apply in England

In England, a new connection to the soil stack or new drainage can be building regulations work under Part H, and new circuits or alterations to circuits in the bathroom are notifiable under Part P. Where a new bathroom is formed, Approved Document F asks for extract at 15 l/s intermittent or 8 l/s continuous.

What does a bathroom designer do?

A bathroom designer works out the layout, products and finishes that suit your room and budget, within the limits set by the drainage, water supply, structure and electrics. The result is a drawing and a product list that the fitters build from, so the price can be fixed before anything is ordered.
