Working in Newton Abbot

We cover every part of Newton Abbot, including TQ12, and nearby Torquay (6 miles) and Paignton (6.7 miles).

In Newton Abbot, 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 Newton Abbot bathroom, we show you both options before you decide. Fitted furniture suits the many Newton Abbot bathrooms that have to hold towels, toiletries and cleaning things for a whole household.

Supplies across most of Devon 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

Electrical work by a qualified electrician: lighting, extractor fan, shaver socket or heating, tested and certified
First and second-fix plumbing, including concealed cistern frames and new isolation valves
Layout options drawn to your room, including where the furniture run, bath or shower and towel rail will go
Supply of the suite, fitted furniture, worktop, brassware, tiles and accessories

Decisions to make first

Tiling height

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

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.

How long does a fitted bathroom take?

Is the home survey in Newton Abbot really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

How do you get to the cistern behind fitted furniture?

Concealed cisterns are reached through the flush plate opening or a removable panel in the WC unit. We fit an isolation valve so the cistern can be serviced without draining the system.
