Working in Stanley
We cover every part of Stanley, including DH9, and nearby Chester-le-Street (5 miles) and Consett (5.4 miles).
Homes in and around Stanley vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. We plan luxury bathrooms in Stanley with drawings and a full product schedule, and the price is fixed in writing once the design is agreed. For a period house in Stanley with high ceilings, we plan the lighting and tile heights to suit the proportions of the room.
Most of County Durham has moderately hard water. Easy-clean glass and good-quality brassware are money well spent. 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
- A full snag check, sealing of stone where needed, and a handover of manuals and isolation points
- Large-format porcelain, natural stone or microcement over full tanking
- Bespoke fitted furniture, mitred tile edges and recessed niches
Decisions to make first
Heating
Underfloor heating under stone or porcelain makes the room comfortable all year; pair it with a towel rail for drying.
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.
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.
