A design survey in Frinton-on-Sea covers drainage, supplies, electrics and ventilation, so nothing on the drawing is guesswork.

Water across much of Essex is very hard. 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 product list covering the suite, brassware, furniture, tiles, lighting and ventilation
A clear view of which changes are cheap and which mean moving drainage or opening floors
A measured survey of the room, including ceiling heights, slopes, window and door positions and any boxing
Layout options drawn to scale, showing the bath or shower, WC, basin, storage and towel rail

Decisions to make first

Planning for later

Timber noggins in the walls for future grab rails, a wider door or a level shower floor cost far less to build in now than to add later.

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.

Where a new bathroom is formed, Approved Document F asks for extract at 15 l/s intermittent or 8 l/s continuous.
