Working in Kingston upon Hull
We work right across Kingston upon Hull — HU1, HU2 and HU3 — and in neighbouring Beverley and Brough.
In a city the size of Kingston upon Hull, parking and access for a skip are worth sorting before the start date — we will ask at the survey. If you are refitting a windowless bathroom in Kingston upon Hull, the lighting is planned with the extractor fan so the two work together. For Kingston upon Hull homes with a loft above the bathroom, the insulation and fire protection are checked before any downlights are cut in.
Supplies across most of the East Riding of Yorkshire are 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
- IP-rated fittings chosen for each zone, with IP65 downlights over the bath or shower
- Fire-rated downlights or fire hoods where the ceiling has to keep its fire resistance
- A shaver supply unit where wanted, positioned away from direct spray
- A ceiling pull-cord or a switch outside the room, with separate switching for mirror and feature lights
Decisions to make first
Colour temperature
Warm white, around 3000 K, feels softer; cool white, around 4000 K, is crisper for shaving and make-up. Mixing the two in one room looks uneven.
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.
