Working in Stoke-on-Trent

We work right across Stoke-on-Trent — ST1, ST2, ST3 and 3 more postcode districts — and in neighbouring Newcastle under Lyme and Kidsgrove.

Stoke-on-Trent is a big place with every kind of home, from terraces to flats to new builds, so we never price from a photo alone. If you are refitting a windowless bathroom in Stoke-on-Trent, the lighting is planned with the extractor fan so the two work together. We survey Stoke-on-Trent bathrooms before quoting lighting, so the zones are measured from your actual bath and shower.

Most of Staffordshire has moderately hard water. 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

  • Testing and an electrical certificate for the work on completion
  • 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
  • RCD protection on the lighting circuit, checked at the consumer unit and added where it is missing

Decisions to make first

Switching

A pull-cord inside, a switch outside the door or a motion sensor. Dimmers need LED fittings that are compatible with them.

Integrated or replaceable LED

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

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.

Is the water hard in Stoke-on-Trent?

Who handles building control for new bathroom lighting in Stoke-on-Trent?

What IP rating do bathroom lights need?

It depends on the zone. Lights inside the bath or shower tray (zone 0) need IPX7; above the bath or shower up to 2.25 m (zone 1) they need at least IPX4, or IPX5 where water jets are used; within 0.6 m of that (zone 2) IPX4 is recommended. Many electricians fit IP65 downlights over a shower whatever the ceiling height. See our bathroom zones guide.
