Working in Crieff

As well as Crieff itself (PH7), we survey in Auchterarder, Perth and Alloa.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Crieff: free survey, written quote, one team. We survey Crieff bathrooms before quoting lighting, so the zones are measured from your actual bath and shower. If you are refitting a windowless bathroom in Crieff, the lighting is planned with the extractor fan so the two work together.

Supplies across most of Perth and Kinross are soft. That leaves you free to choose matt black, brushed brass or clear glass without worrying much about limescale. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

A lighting plan: number and position of downlights, mirror lighting, switches and any shaver socket
A ceiling pull-cord or a switch outside the room, with separate switching for mirror and feature lights
Cable runs to each fitting, from the loft above or through the ceiling
A shaver supply unit where wanted, positioned away from direct spray

Decisions to make first

Integrated or replaceable LED

Integrated LED downlights are slimmer and fully sealed. Fittings with replaceable lamps let you change brightness or colour later.

Mirror lighting

An illuminated mirror or mirror cabinet lights the face from the front, which a ceiling light cannot do. Many include a demister pad and a shaver socket.

Rules that apply in Scotland

Scotland has no Part P. Bathroom lighting must meet the building standards and BS 7671, including RCD protection and the zone rules, and small like-for-like work does not normally need a building warrant.

More about bathroom lighting

Bathroom lighting in Crieff: questions

How much should I budget for new bathroom lighting in Crieff?

New bathroom lighting in Crieff usually costs £350–£1,150 including VAT. The final figure comes down to what you choose and what we find at the survey; your written quote lists every item so you can see where the money goes.

Is the water hard in Crieff?

Will new bathroom lighting in Crieff need a building warrant?

Usually not for a straight refit. Building warrants are issued by the local council's building standards service, and forming a new bathroom, changing drainage or structural work can need one. We tell you at the survey and handle the application if one is needed.

How long does new bathroom lighting take?

Allow half a day to 2 days on site for most jobs, plus the lead time for products after you approve the quote. We give you a day-by-day plan before work starts in Crieff.

Can you have a normal plug socket in a bathroom?

Only if it is at least 3 m from the edge of zone 1, which rules it out in most UK bathrooms. The exception is a shaver supply unit, which has an isolating transformer and is designed for bathrooms. It should sit away from direct spray.
