Working in Truro
In Truro we cover TR1; we also cover Falmouth, 7.7 miles away, and Redruth.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Truro: free survey, written quote, one team. For a period house in Truro with high ceilings, we plan the lighting and tile heights to suit the proportions of the room. If you live in a listed building in Truro, we flag any change that may need listed building consent, such as a new soil pipe through a wall.
Supplies across most of Cornwall are soft. 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
- Concealed thermostatic or digital shower valves, set into the wall to the depth the manufacturer specifies
- A full snag check, sealing of stone where needed, and a handover of manuals and isolation points
- Layout drawings, wall elevations and a tile setting-out plan
- Bespoke fitted furniture, mitred tile edges and recessed niches
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.
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.
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.
