Working in Ballymena

We work right across Ballymena — BT42, BT43 and BT44 — and in neighbouring Antrim and Magherafelt.

In Ballymena, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. Whether your Ballymena bathroom is a compact box room or a larger main bathroom, the layout starts from measurements taken on site. If you want to lose the bath and gain storage in your Ballymena bathroom, we show you both options before you decide.

Supplies across most of County Antrim are 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

Fitting of the furniture, worktop, sanitaryware and glass, then silicone, testing and a clean handover
Strip-out of the old bathroom and removal of the waste
First and second-fix plumbing, including concealed cistern frames and new isolation valves
A free home survey with measurements, photos and a check of your water pressure, drainage and ventilation

Decisions to make first

Worktop

Laminate is the budget choice, quartz-effect and solid surface resist water and stains, and a moulded basin-and-top in one piece has no joints to clean.

Furniture finish

Matt or gloss lacquer, wood-effect, painted shaker or handleless. Darker finishes hide marks; lighter ones make a small room feel bigger.

Rules that apply in Northern Ireland

In Northern Ireland, building control covers new drainage, ventilation and structural changes. There is no Part P, but electrical work should be designed, tested and certified to BS 7671.
