Working in Bedlington

As well as Bedlington itself (NE22, NE24 and NE62), we survey in Cramlington, Blyth and Ashington.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Bedlington: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Bedlington house has a combi boiler, a loft shower can usually run on mains pressure without a pump. For a loft bathroom in a tank-fed Bedlington home, we work out how the shower will get its pressure before choosing a single fitting.

Water across much of Northumberland is soft. If that holds for your street in Bedlington, limescale on shower glass and heads builds up slowly and a squeegee after use is usually enough. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

A check of the floor joists where a bath or large shower tray will sit
Fitted furniture made to the eaves, so the low space behind the slope becomes storage
Electrics by a qualified electrician, tested and certified, then tiling, testing and handover
A survey of the headroom across the room, with the usable height marked at each fitting position

Decisions to make first

Getting the water pressure

A pumped shower suits a gravity system with a cold tank; an electric shower heats cold mains water at the point of use; a combi or unvented cylinder gives mains pressure throughout.

Gravity or pumped waste

Gravity is silent and maintenance-free. A pumped waste or macerator lets fittings sit away from the stack, provided the house has a WC on gravity drainage elsewhere.

Rules that apply in England

In England, new drainage and a new connection to the soil stack fall under Part H, a new bathroom needs extract of 15 litres per second intermittent or 8 litres per second continuous under Approved Document F, and new circuits are notifiable under Part P. If the work includes an unvented hot-water cylinder, it must be fitted by a G3-qualified installer.

Loft bathrooms in Bedlington: questions

How much does a loft bathroom cost in Bedlington?

A loft bathroom in Bedlington usually costs £5,800–£11,750 including VAT. The final figure comes down to what you choose and what we find at the survey; your written quote lists every item so you can see where the money goes.

Is the home survey in Bedlington really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Do you cover NE22 in Bedlington?

Yes. We cover all of Bedlington, including NE22, NE24 and NE62, and nearby Cramlington, Blyth and Ashington. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Bedlington?

Is a bath too heavy for a loft floor?

A standard acrylic bath is usually fine on a loft floor built for a conversion, but a filled bath with someone in it is heavy, and stone-resin or cast-iron baths are much heavier still. We check the joist size, span and direction at the survey, and a heavy bath may need a structural check and strengthening first.
