Working in Berkhamsted

As well as Berkhamsted itself (HP4), we survey in Chesham, Hemel Hempstead and Amersham on the Hill.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Berkhamsted: free survey, written quote, one team. For homes in Berkhamsted 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. Fitted furniture suits the many Berkhamsted bathrooms that have to hold towels, toiletries and cleaning things for a whole household.

Most of Hertfordshire has very hard water. 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

Layout options drawn to your room, including where the furniture run, bath or shower and towel rail will go
First and second-fix plumbing, including concealed cistern frames and new isolation valves
Fitting of the furniture, worktop, sanitaryware and glass, then silicone, testing and a clean handover
Strip-out of the old bathroom and removal of the waste

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.

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.

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.

Is the water hard in Berkhamsted?

What is the difference between a fitted bathroom and a normal bathroom?

In a fitted bathroom the basin, WC and storage are built into one continuous run of furniture, with the cistern and pipes hidden behind panels and a worktop across the top. A standard bathroom uses separate pieces, such as a pedestal basin and close-coupled toilet, which leave gaps and visible pipework.
