Working in Falmouth
As well as Falmouth itself (TR11), we survey in Truro, Redruth and Camborne.
In Falmouth, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. For a period house in Falmouth with high ceilings, we plan the lighting and tile heights to suit the proportions of the room. For a stone or cast-iron bath in a Falmouth property, we check the floor structure before anything is ordered.
Most of Cornwall is supplied with soft water. That leaves you free to choose matt black, brushed brass or clear glass without worrying much about limescale. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- A detailed survey of the floor structure, hot-water capacity, water pressure and flow
- A full product schedule naming every piece of sanitaryware, brassware, tile and light fitting
- Large-format porcelain, natural stone or microcement over full tanking
- Underfloor heating, layered lighting and any steam unit wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
Decisions to make first
Wall and floor finish
Large-format porcelain gives a stone look with little upkeep. Natural stone and microcement are beautiful but need sealing and care, especially in hard-water areas.
Brassware finish
Chrome is the easiest to keep clean. Brushed brass, nickel and matt black look striking but show limescale marks unless they are wiped down.
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.
