Working in Weston-super-Mare
We work right across Weston-super-Mare — BS22 and BS23 — and in neighbouring Burnham-on-Sea and Clevedon.
Across a large town like Weston-super-Mare, homes range from older terraces to newer estates; the survey tells us which pipework and floor we are dealing with. If your Weston-super-Mare bathroom has one central light, adding downlights and a mirror light is usually the change you notice most. For Weston-super-Mare homes with a loft above the bathroom, the insulation and fire protection are checked before any downlights are cut in.
Supplies across most of Somerset 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
- A shaver supply unit where wanted, positioned away from direct spray
- IP-rated fittings chosen for each zone, with IP65 downlights over the bath or shower
- Testing and an electrical certificate for the work on completion
- Fire-rated downlights or fire hoods where the ceiling has to keep its fire resistance
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.
