Working in Beckenham
We cover every part of Beckenham, including BR3, SE20 and SE26, and nearby Catford (2.5 miles) and Croydon (3.7 miles).
London homes in Beckenham often mean stairs, permits and neighbours below; we plan the logistics as carefully as the bathroom. For a busy Beckenham household sharing one main bathroom, a thermostatic shower over a full-size bath is usually the most practical layout. We survey in Beckenham before quoting, so the bath, shower and storage are planned around your actual walls, window and soil stack.
Water across much of Greater London is very 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
- Strip-out of the old suite and tiles, with the waste taken away by a licensed waste carrier
- A free home survey covering room sizes, the soil stack position, your boiler or cylinder type and water pressure
- 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 shape
A standard 1700 mm bath fits most rooms. A shower bath widens at one end to give more standing room under the shower; a double-ended bath puts the waste in the middle so two children can share without one sitting on the plug.
Storage
A vanity under the basin, a tall unit or a mirror cabinet. High-level or lockable storage keeps medicines and cleaning products out of reach of small children.
Rules that apply in England
In England, any new circuit, or any change to the wiring in a room with a bath or shower, is notifiable under Part P. Part G limits the hot water at a new bath to 48 °C only in a new dwelling or one created by change of use; it does not apply to a replacement bath in an existing house, but a thermostatic valve is a sensible choice where children bathe.
