Across a large town like Harlow, homes range from older terraces to newer estates; the survey tells us which pipework and floor we are dealing with. Fitted furniture suits the many Harlow bathrooms that have to hold towels, toiletries and cleaning things for a whole household. Whether your Harlow bathroom is a compact box room or a larger main bathroom, the layout starts from measurements taken on site.
Supplies across most of Essex are very 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
- Strip-out of the old bathroom and removal of the waste
- Electrical work by a qualified electrician: lighting, extractor fan, shaver socket or heating, tested and certified
- Fitting of the furniture, worktop, sanitaryware and glass, then silicone, testing and a clean handover
- Layout options drawn to your room, including where the furniture run, bath or shower and towel rail will go
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.
Heating
A heated towel rail is standard. Electric underfloor heating under the tiles makes the room comfortable and dries the floor quickly.
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.
