Working in Wimborne Minster
We cover every part of Wimborne Minster, including BH17, BH18 and BH21, and nearby Ferndown (4 miles) and Poole (4.8 miles).
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Wimborne Minster: free survey, written quote, one team. We survey Wimborne Minster bathrooms before quoting lighting, so the zones are measured from your actual bath and shower. For Wimborne Minster homes with a loft above the bathroom, the insulation and fire protection are checked before any downlights are cut in.
Water across much of Dorset 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
- Cable runs to each fitting, from the loft above or through the ceiling
- RCD protection on the lighting circuit, checked at the consumer unit and added where it is missing
- A ceiling pull-cord or a switch outside the room, with separate switching for mirror and feature lights
- A shaver supply unit where wanted, positioned away from direct spray
Decisions to make first
Feature lighting
LED strips in niches, under a wall-hung vanity or along a plinth give enough light for night-time without full glare.
Switching
A pull-cord inside, a switch outside the door or a motion sensor. Dimmers need LED fittings that are compatible with them.
Rules that apply in England
In England, Part P makes a new circuit, a consumer unit replacement and any addition or alteration to circuits in a room with a bath or shower notifiable. The work must be done by an electrician registered with a competent person scheme or notified to building control. Replacing a light fitting like for like is not usually notifiable, but it still has to meet BS 7671.
