Working in South Shields
We cover every part of South Shields, including NE29, NE30 and NE33, and nearby Tynemouth (1.4 miles) and North Shields (1.4 miles).
South Shields has a wide mix of house ages, so the survey is where we spot old lead pipework, weak joists or a tight soil stack. If your South Shields home has uneven walls, fillers and end panels are scribed to them on site rather than left with gaps. We measure South Shields bathrooms wall by wall before ordering, so the run is made for your room.
Most of Tyne and Wear is supplied with soft water. In soft water, taps, wastes and toilet pans scale up slowly, so brushed and matt finishes are a safe choice. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Removal of the old basin, WC or cabinets, with redundant supplies capped
- A concealed cistern or cistern frame, with an isolation valve you can reach through the flush plate or a panel
- Tall units fixed to the wall, doors adjusted and soft-close hinges set
- Supply of carcasses, doors, plinths, fillers and end panels in your chosen finish
Decisions to make first
Lighting in the run
Plinth lights and an illuminated mirror cabinet must be planned at first fix, because the cables run inside the furniture and need RCD protection.
Unit depth
Slimline units are shallower and suit narrow rooms; standard-depth units hold more and give a wider worktop over the cistern.
Rules that apply in England
In England, wiring a lit mirror or plinth lights means altering a circuit in a room with a bath or shower, which is notifiable under Part P. The Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999 cover the new WC and basin taps.
