Working in Harwich

We cover every part of Harwich, including CO12, and nearby Felixstowe (3.2 miles) and Walton-on-the-Naze (6.5 miles).

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Harwich: free survey, written quote, one team. Whether you are in Harwich or elsewhere in Essex, layout options come with an itemised written quote. A design survey in Harwich 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

Layout options drawn to scale, showing the bath or shower, WC, basin, storage and towel rail
A written, itemised quote, with the price fixed in writing once the layout and products are agreed
A lighting and electrical plan showing switches, fittings, shaver socket and extractor fan
Elevations and tile layouts on a design, supply and fit project, so the setting-out is agreed before tiling starts

Decisions to make first

Where the shower goes

A shower on an outside wall is easier to ventilate; one under a sloping ceiling needs full head height where you stand, not just at the high side.

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.

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.

Who handles building control for a new bathroom design in Harwich?

Building control for Harwich is handled by the local council or an approved inspector. If your job needs sign-off — for example a new circuit, new drainage or a new extractor where there was none — we tell you at the survey and handle the notification as part of the work.

Will I see drawings before I agree to the work?

Yes. Layout options drawn to your room come with the written quote, so you can compare them and ask for changes before agreeing anything. Detailed elevations and tile setting-out follow once you decide to go ahead, and you sign those off before work starts.
