Failsworth gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. Fitted furniture suits the many Failsworth bathrooms that have to hold towels, toiletries and cleaning things for a whole household. We survey in Failsworth before quoting, so the furniture run is planned around your actual walls, window and soil stack.
Most of Greater Manchester is supplied with soft water. 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
- Strip-out of the old bathroom and removal of the waste
- 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
- Electrical work by a qualified electrician: lighting, extractor fan, shaver socket or heating, tested and certified
Decisions to make first
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.
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.
