Working in Thornton-Cleveleys
In Thornton-Cleveleys we cover FY2, FY5 and FY6; we also cover Poulton-le-Fylde, 3.2 miles away, and Fleetwood.
Homes in and around Thornton-Cleveleys vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. We survey in Thornton-Cleveleys before quoting, so the bath, shower and storage are planned around your actual walls, window and soil stack. Whether your Thornton-Cleveleys bathroom is a narrow galley or a square main room, we show you whether a separate shower would fit before you decide.
Water across much of Lancashire is soft. 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
- Supply of the bath, basin, WC, brassware, shower, screen, tiles and heated towel rail
- Moisture-resistant boarding and tanking around the bath and shower before any tiling
- A layout that keeps a full-size bath, with options for a shower over it or a separate enclosure if the room allows
- Lights, extractor fan and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
Decisions to make first
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.
Shower over the bath or separate
A shower over the bath with a fixed or hinged screen is the most space-efficient. A separate enclosure needs roughly another square metre of floor but means the bath queue no longer holds up the shower queue.
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.
