Working in East Grinstead
As well as East Grinstead itself (RH19), we survey in Horley, Crawley and Crowborough.
Homes in and around East Grinstead vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If your East Grinstead bathroom has one central light, adding downlights and a mirror light is usually the change you notice most. We survey East Grinstead bathrooms before quoting lighting, so the zones are measured from your actual bath and shower.
Supplies across most of West Sussex 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
- A ceiling pull-cord or a switch outside the room, with separate switching for mirror and feature lights
- Testing and an electrical certificate for the work on completion
- RCD protection on the lighting circuit, checked at the consumer unit and added where it is missing
Decisions to make first
Downlight positions
Evenly spaced downlights give flat, general light. Placing one over the shower and one over the basin puts the light where you actually use it.
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.
