Working in St Albans

In St Albans we cover AL1 and AL2; we also cover Harpenden, 4.7 miles away, and Hatfield.

In a city the size of St Albans, parking and access for a skip are worth sorting before the start date — we will ask at the survey. For homes in St Albans 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. Whether your St Albans bathroom is a compact box room or a larger main bathroom, the layout starts from measurements taken on site.

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

A free home survey with measurements, photos and a check of your water pressure, drainage and ventilation
Supply of the suite, fitted furniture, worktop, brassware, tiles and accessories
Layout options drawn to your room, including where the furniture run, bath or shower and towel rail will go
Boarding, tanking in the wet areas, wall and floor tiling

Decisions to make first

Furniture finish

Matt or gloss lacquer, wood-effect, painted shaker or handleless. Darker finishes hide marks; lighter ones make a small room feel bigger.

Wall-hung or floor-standing

Wall-hung units show more floor and look lighter; floor-standing units give more storage and suit uneven walls.

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.

Good fitted furniture uses moisture-resistant boards, sealed edges and a worktop sealed to the wall. It is designed for a bathroom, but standing water should still be wiped up. Ask for the carcass material and edge banding on the quote.
