For homes in Thornaby-on-Tees where the bathroom is the only one, we plan the work so the toilet is out of action for as short a time as possible.

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
- Fitting of the furniture, worktop, sanitaryware and glass, then silicone, testing and a clean handover
- Electrical work by a qualified electrician: lighting, extractor fan, shaver socket or heating, tested and certified
- Strip-out of the old bathroom and removal of the waste
- Layout options drawn to your room, including where the furniture run, bath or shower and towel rail will go
Decisions to make first
Furniture finish
Matt or gloss lacquer, wood-effect, painted shaker or handleless. Darker finishes hide marks; lighter ones make a small room feel bigger.
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.
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.
