Working in Ferndown

We cover every part of Ferndown, including BH22, and nearby Wimborne Minster (4 miles) and Bournemouth (6.1 miles).

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Ferndown: free survey, written quote, one team. For a stone or cast-iron bath in a Ferndown property, we check the floor structure before anything is ordered. For a period house in Ferndown with high ceilings, we plan the lighting and tile heights to suit the proportions of the room.

Most of Dorset has hard water. We plan easy-clean glass, rimless toilets and finishes that do not show limescale. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Layout drawings, wall elevations and a tile setting-out plan
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
A full snag check, sealing of stone where needed, and a handover of manuals and isolation points

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.

More about luxury bathrooms

Luxury bathrooms in Ferndown: questions

What is the price of a luxury bathroom in Ferndown?

A luxury bathroom in Ferndown usually costs £12,250–£25,500 including VAT. The final figure comes down to what you choose and what we find at the survey; your written quote lists every item so you can see where the money goes.

Who handles building control for a luxury bathroom in Ferndown?

Building control for Ferndown is handled by the local council or an approved inspector. If your job needs sign-off — for example a new circuit, new drainage or a new extractor where there was none — we tell you at the survey and handle the notification as part of the work.

How long does a luxury bathroom take?

Allow 10–15 working days on site for most jobs, plus the lead time for products after you approve the quote. We give you a day-by-day plan before work starts in Ferndown.

Is the home survey in Ferndown really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Microcement or tiles in a luxury bathroom?

Microcement gives a seamless finish with no grout lines, but it must go on a stable, well-prepared base and be properly sealed. Large-format porcelain gives a similarly clean look, is harder-wearing and is easier to repair if something is dropped on it. We price both if you are undecided.
