Working in Castlereagh

We cover every part of Castlereagh, including BT5, BT6 and BT7, and nearby Belfast (2.3 miles) and Newtownabbey (6 miles).

In Castlereagh, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. We survey in Castlereagh before quoting, so the furniture run is planned around your actual walls, window and soil stack. If you want to lose the bath and gain storage in your Castlereagh bathroom, we show you both options before you decide.

Most of County Antrim 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

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
Boarding, tanking in the wet areas, wall and floor tiling
First and second-fix plumbing, including concealed cistern frames and new isolation valves

Decisions to make first

Heating

A heated towel rail is standard. Electric underfloor heating under the tiles makes the room comfortable and dries the floor quickly.

Wall-hung or floor-standing

Wall-hung units show more floor and look lighter; floor-standing units give more storage and suit uneven walls.

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.

Good fitted furniture uses moisture-resistant boards, sealed edges and a worktop sealed to the wall. It is designed for a bathroom, but standing water should still be wiped up. Ask for the carcass material and edge banding on the quote.
