Working in Portslade

We work right across Portslade — BN3, BN41 and BN42 — and in neighbouring Hove and Shoreham-by-Sea.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Portslade: free survey, written quote, one team. We survey in Portslade before quoting, so the furniture run is planned around your actual walls, window and soil stack. If your Portslade bathroom has pipes boxed in at odd angles, a fitted run is often the neatest way to hide them for good.

Supplies across most of East Sussex are hard. We plan easy-clean glass, rimless toilets and finishes that do not show limescale. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

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
Layout options drawn to your room, including where the furniture run, bath or shower and towel rail will go
Fitting of the furniture, worktop, sanitaryware and glass, then silicone, testing and a clean handover

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.

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 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.

Fitted bathrooms in Portslade: questions

How much does a fitted bathroom cost in Portslade?

Who handles building control for a fitted bathroom in Portslade?

Building control for Portslade 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.

How long does a fitted bathroom take?

Allow 6–10 working days on site for most jobs, plus the lead time for products after you approve the quote. We give you a day-by-day plan before work starts in Portslade.

Is the home survey in Portslade 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.

Is fitted bathroom furniture waterproof?

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.
