Working in Bishopbriggs
As well as Bishopbriggs itself (G64), we survey in Glasgow, Kirkintilloch and Bearsden.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Bishopbriggs: free survey, written quote, one team. If you are refreshing a dated cloakroom in Bishopbriggs, a wall-hung WC and slim vanity can change the room in a few days. We survey cloakrooms in Bishopbriggs with the headroom in mind as well as the floor area, because under-stair spaces lose height quickly.
Water across much of Greater Glasgow is soft. In soft water, taps, wastes and toilet pans scale up slowly, so brushed and matt finishes are a safe choice. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Strip-out of the old fittings, waste removal and making good on the hall side
- A survey that checks the headroom under the stairs, the door swing and how the waste will reach the drain
- Splashback or feature tiling and a new floor, often LVT or porcelain
- A new waste connection to the soil stack or drain, or a macerator where the rules allow it
Decisions to make first
WC style
A wall-hung WC on a frame gives the most floor space and looks neat. A back-to-wall pan in a short furniture unit is easier to fit against an uneven wall.
Finishes
A small room can carry a bolder tile or wallpaper. A feature wall behind the WC costs far less here than in a full bathroom because there is so little of it.
Rules that apply in Scotland
In Scotland, forming a new WC that alters drainage may need a building warrant, while refitting an existing cloakroom normally does not. Water fittings are covered by the Scottish Water Byelaws 2014, and electrics should be tested and certified to BS 7671.
