Working in Blaydon-on-Tyne
We cover every part of Blaydon-on-Tyne, including NE15, NE21 and NE40, and nearby Whickham (2 miles) and Newburn (2 miles).
Blaydon-on-Tyne gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If your Blaydon-on-Tyne 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. For a busy Blaydon-on-Tyne household sharing one main bathroom, a thermostatic shower over a full-size bath is usually the most practical layout.
Most of Tyne and Wear 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
- A free home survey covering room sizes, the soil stack position, your boiler or cylinder type and water pressure
- 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
- Supply of the bath, basin, WC, brassware, shower, screen, tiles and heated towel rail
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.
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 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.
