Working in St Ives

We cover every part of St Ives, including PE27, and nearby Huntingdon (4.6 miles) and St Neots (11.3 miles).

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in St Ives: free survey, written quote, one team. We plan luxury bathrooms in St Ives with drawings and a full product schedule, and the price is fixed in writing once the design is agreed. For a stone or cast-iron bath in a St Ives property, we check the floor structure before anything is ordered.

Water across much of Cambridgeshire is very hard. 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 full product schedule naming every piece of sanitaryware, brassware, tile and light fitting
Underfloor heating, layered lighting and any steam unit wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
Concealed thermostatic or digital shower valves, set into the wall to the depth the manufacturer specifies
Floor strengthening where a stone-resin, cast-iron or natural stone bath needs it

Decisions to make first

Freestanding bath material

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch. Stone resin holds heat and feels solid but is much heavier. Cast iron is the heaviest of all and nearly always needs a structural check.

Heating

Underfloor heating under stone or porcelain makes the room comfortable all year; pair it with a towel rail for drying.

Rules that apply in England

In England, the new circuits a luxury bathroom often needs, for underfloor heating, a steam unit or a digital shower, are notifiable under Part P. An unvented hot-water cylinder, often fitted to feed a large shower, must be installed by a G3-qualified installer, and any work on the boiler must be done by a Gas Safe registered engineer.

Is the water hard in St Ives?

What does a steam shower need?

A steam shower is a fully sealed enclosure or room with a generator that fills it with steam. It needs its own electrical circuit, a sealed door, usually a sloped ceiling so condensation runs off rather than dripping, full tanking and a drain. It has to be planned into the room from the start, not added later.
