Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Thornaby-on-Tees: free survey, written quote, one team. For a period house in Thornaby-on-Tees 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 Thornaby-on-Tees property, we check the floor structure before anything is ordered.
Water across much of County Durham is moderately hard. 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
- Bespoke fitted furniture, mitred tile edges and recessed niches
- A full snag check, sealing of stone where needed, and a handover of manuals and isolation points
- A detailed survey of the floor structure, hot-water capacity, water pressure and flow
- Large-format porcelain, natural stone or microcement over full tanking
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.
Shower system
A concealed thermostatic valve with a ceiling head and handset is the usual choice. A digital valve sets the temperature from a wall panel, and a steam enclosure needs its own generator and supply.
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.
