Working in Ilkeston

We work right across Ilkeston — DE7 and NG10 — and in neighbouring Eastwood and Heanor.

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

Most of Derbyshire 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
First and second-fix plumbing, including concealed cistern frames and new isolation valves
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

Heating

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

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.

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.
