Working in Farnworth

In Farnworth we cover BL3, BL4 and M38; we also cover Walkden, 2.3 miles away, and Bolton.

Homes in and around Farnworth vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. For homes in Farnworth where the bathroom is the only one, we plan the work so the toilet is out of action for as short a time as possible. If you want to lose the bath and gain storage in your Farnworth bathroom, we show you both options before you decide.

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

Fitting of the furniture, worktop, sanitaryware and glass, then silicone, testing and a clean handover
Electrical work by a qualified electrician: lighting, extractor fan, shaver socket or heating, tested and certified
Boarding, tanking in the wet areas, wall and floor tiling
Supply of the suite, fitted furniture, worktop, brassware, tiles and accessories

Decisions to make first

Heating

A heated towel rail is standard. Electric underfloor heating under the tiles makes the room comfortable and dries the floor quickly.

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.

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.
