Working in Stafford
In Stafford we cover ST16 and ST17; we also cover Rugeley, 8.1 miles away, and Cannock.
Homes in and around Stafford vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. We measure Stafford bathrooms on site before drawing anything, so layouts are based on your walls rather than a standard plan. A design survey in Stafford covers drainage, supplies, electrics and ventilation, so nothing on the drawing is guesswork.
Most of Staffordshire has moderately hard water. Easy-clean glass and good-quality brassware are money well spent. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- 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
- A product list covering the suite, brassware, furniture, tiles, lighting and ventilation
- A lighting and electrical plan showing switches, fittings, shaver socket and extractor fan
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.
Tile setting-out
Centring tiles on the window, basin or niche avoids thin slivers at the edges. Large tiles mean fewer joints but need flatter walls.
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.
