Working in Torquay

As well as Torquay itself (TQ1, TQ2, TQ3 and 1 more postcode districts), we survey in Paignton, Brixham and Newton Abbot.

Homes in and around Torquay vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. For a period house in Torquay with high ceilings, we plan the lighting and tile heights to suit the proportions of the room. We plan luxury bathrooms in Torquay with drawings and a full product schedule, and the price is fixed in writing once the design is agreed.

Supplies across most of Devon 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

A full product schedule naming every piece of sanitaryware, brassware, tile and light fitting
Floor strengthening where a stone-resin, cast-iron or natural stone bath needs it
Layout drawings, wall elevations and a tile setting-out plan
Underfloor heating, layered lighting and any steam unit wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified

Decisions to make first

Lighting

Layer it: IP-rated ceiling lights for general use, a lit mirror at the basin and low-level LED in niches or plinths for night, each on its own switch or dimmer.

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.

Is the water hard in Torquay?

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.
