Working in Billingham

In Billingham we cover TS23; we also cover Stockton-on-Tees, 1.8 miles away, and Middlesbrough.

In Billingham, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. Fitted furniture suits the many Billingham bathrooms that have to hold towels, toiletries and cleaning things for a whole household. We survey in Billingham before quoting, so the furniture run is planned around your actual walls, window and soil stack.

Most of County Durham has moderately hard water. Easy-clean glass and good-quality brassware are money well spent. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Supply of the suite, fitted furniture, worktop, brassware, tiles and accessories
Fitting of the furniture, worktop, sanitaryware and glass, then silicone, testing and a clean handover
A free home survey with measurements, photos and a check of your water pressure, drainage and ventilation
Electrical work by a qualified electrician: lighting, extractor fan, shaver socket or heating, tested and certified

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.

Tiling height

Tiling just the wet areas keeps the cost down. Full-height tiling looks better and is easier to wipe clean.

Rules that apply in England

In England, new circuits and most electrical changes in a bathroom are notifiable under Part P, so they must be done by an electrician registered with a competent person scheme or notified to building control. If you are adding a new extractor fan, Approved Document F gives 15 litres per second as the usual intermittent extract rate.

Who handles building control for a fitted bathroom in Billingham?

Building control for Billingham is handled by the local council or an approved inspector. If your job needs sign-off — for example a new circuit, new drainage or a new extractor where there was none — we tell you at the survey and handle the notification as part of the work.

Do I need to be at home while the bathroom is fitted?

No, as long as we can get in each day and you are around at the start and at handover. You can give us a key or let us in each morning. We will need your water and power turned off at times, and we will tell you when.
