Working in Portishead
In Portishead we cover BS20; we also cover Nailsea, 3.5 miles away, and Clevedon.
In Portishead, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. We measure Portishead bathrooms on site before drawing anything, so layouts are based on your walls rather than a standard plan. If you are in Portishead and weighing a bath against a walk-in shower, the layout options show both with their prices.
Water across much of Somerset is 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 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
- A written, itemised quote, with the price fixed in writing once the layout and products are agreed
- Elevations and tile layouts on a design, supply and fit project, so the setting-out is agreed before tiling starts
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.
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.
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.
