Working in Balerno

We cover every part of Balerno, including EH14, EH27 and EH28, and nearby Currie (1.5 miles) and Colinton (3.6 miles).

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Balerno: free survey, written quote, one team. Fitted furniture suits the many Balerno bathrooms that have to hold towels, toiletries and cleaning things for a whole household. If you want to lose the bath and gain storage in your Balerno bathroom, we show you both options before you decide.

Supplies across most of Edinburgh 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

A free home survey with measurements, photos and a check of your water pressure, drainage and ventilation
Strip-out of the old bathroom and removal of the waste
Boarding, tanking in the wet areas, wall and floor tiling
Electrical work by a qualified electrician: lighting, extractor fan, shaver socket or heating, tested and certified

Decisions to make first

Bath, shower or both

Keep a bath for children or soaking, swap it for a walk-in shower if no one uses it, or plan both if the room is big enough.

Furniture finish

Matt or gloss lacquer, wood-effect, painted shaker or handleless. Darker finishes hide marks; lighter ones make a small room feel bigger.

Rules that apply in Scotland

In Scotland, building standards apply instead of Part P. A straight refit rarely needs a building warrant, but forming a new bathroom, altering drainage or structural work may. Electrical work should still be tested and certified to BS 7671.

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.
