Working in Becontree
We work right across Becontree — IG3, RM8 and RM9 — and in neighbouring Dagenham and Barking.
In Becontree, many bathrooms are in flats or converted houses, so we check lease consents, access and the floor below before we price. If your Becontree bathroom has pipes boxed in at odd angles, a fitted run is often the neatest way to hide them for good. We survey in Becontree before quoting, so the furniture run is planned around your actual walls, window and soil stack.
Water across much of Greater London is 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
- Electrical work by a qualified electrician: lighting, extractor fan, shaver socket or heating, tested and certified
- A free home survey with measurements, photos and a check of your water pressure, drainage and ventilation
- 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
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.
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 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.
