Working in Mitcham

As well as Mitcham itself (CR4, SM4 and SW17), we survey in Morden, Wimbledon and Streatham.

In Mitcham, many bathrooms are in flats or converted houses, so we check lease consents, access and the floor below before we price. We survey in Mitcham before quoting, so the bath, shower and storage are planned around your actual walls, window and soil stack. If you have young children at home in Mitcham, we can talk through a bath that is easy to lean over, a slip-resistant floor and high-level storage.

Supplies across most of Greater London are 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

A free home survey covering room sizes, the soil stack position, your boiler or cylinder type and water pressure
Strip-out of the old suite and tiles, with the waste taken away by a licensed waste carrier
Lights, extractor fan and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
Wall and floor tiling, with a floor finish chosen to grip under wet feet

Decisions to make first

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.

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.

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.

Do you cover CR4 in Mitcham?

Yes. We cover all of Mitcham, including CR4, SM4 and SW17, and nearby Morden, Wimbledon and Streatham. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Mitcham?

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.
