Working in Cookstown

As well as Cookstown itself (BT80), we survey in Magherafelt, Dungannon and Portadown.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Cookstown: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Cookstown home has just one bathroom, we plan the fit so the toilet is working again at the end of each day wherever the job allows. If you have young children at home in Cookstown, we can talk through a bath that is easy to lean over, a slip-resistant floor and high-level storage.

Most of County Tyrone is supplied with soft water. 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

Moisture-resistant boarding and tanking around the bath and shower before any tiling
Final silicone, a test of every tap and waste, and a clean handover
Lights, extractor fan and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
A layout that keeps a full-size bath, with options for a shower over it or a separate enclosure if the room allows

Decisions to make first

Bath material

Reinforced acrylic is warm to the touch and light on the floor. Steel enamel is harder-wearing and feels more solid, but it draws heat from the water faster.

Floor

Matt or textured porcelain is the hardest-wearing option. Luxury vinyl tile (LVT) is warmer, quieter and cheaper to lay. Avoid polished tiles where children climb out of the bath.

Rules that apply in Northern Ireland

In Northern Ireland, building control is involved where drainage, structure or ventilation change. The Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2009 cover the new WC and taps, and wiring should be tested and certified to BS 7671.

More about family bathrooms

Family bathrooms in Cookstown: questions

How much should I budget for a family bathroom in Cookstown?

A family bathroom in Cookstown usually costs £5,300–£9,700 including VAT. Room size, layout changes and your choice of products move the figure within that range. The free survey gives you an itemised quote, fixed in writing once the details are agreed.

Is the home survey in Cookstown really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Do you cover BT80 in Cookstown?

Yes. We cover all of Cookstown, including BT80, and nearby Magherafelt, Dungannon and Portadown. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Cookstown?

Is a shower over the bath a good idea?

Yes, a shower over the bath is the most space-efficient way to have both in one room. Use a shower bath or a straight bath at least 700 mm wide, a glass screen and tiling or wall panels to full height around the bath. A common leak point is the seal between bath and wall, so the bath must be fully supported before it is sealed.
