Working in Stoke-on-Trent

In a city the size of Stoke-on-Trent, parking and access for a skip are worth sorting before the start date — we will ask at the survey. If you are in Stoke-on-Trent and weighing a bath against a walk-in shower, the layout options show both with their prices. Whether you are in Stoke-on-Trent or elsewhere in Staffordshire, layout options come with an itemised written quote.

Supplies across most of Staffordshire are moderately hard. 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

Elevations and tile layouts on a design, supply and fit project, so the setting-out is agreed before tiling starts
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 lighting and electrical plan showing switches, fittings, shaver socket and extractor fan

Decisions to make first

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.

The door

Re-hanging the door on the other side, fitting a sliding pocket door or moving the opening can free up a whole wall in a small room.

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.
