Working in Margate

We work right across Margate — CT8, CT9 and CT11 — and in neighbouring Broadstairs and Ramsgate.

Homes in and around Margate vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. For homes in Margate 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 Margate bathrooms that have to hold towels, toiletries and cleaning things for a whole household.

Most of Kent 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
Boarding, tanking in the wet areas, wall and floor tiling
Supply of the suite, fitted furniture, worktop, brassware, tiles and accessories
A free home survey with measurements, photos and a check of your water pressure, drainage and ventilation

Decisions to make first

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.

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.

Who handles building control for a fitted bathroom in Margate?

Building control for Margate is handled by the local council or an approved inspector. If your job needs sign-off — for example a new circuit, new drainage or a new extractor where there was none — we tell you at the survey and handle the notification as part of the work.

Do I need to be at home while the bathroom is fitted?

No, as long as we can get in each day and you are around at the start and at handover. You can give us a key or let us in each morning. We will need your water and power turned off at times, and we will tell you when.
